- On a flight with my Cirrus SR22 to New York City's Teterboro things don't always go as smoothly, being the bumpiness down low, the crazy traffic, the fast talking air traffic controllers and it seems that everyone is faster than you...

FAQs
- What airplane is this? This is a Cirrus SR22T (Turbo) Generation 6 (G6) built in December 2018.
- Why do you fly so much? I fly for business primarily supporting my clients and staff at meetings and conferences and vendor partner relationship building for my Government Payments platform company called Autoagent
- What do you use to record your videos? I use 2 GoPro 10 cameras, I use ND4, 8 filters on the cameras, I use a Sony FRD-AX53 4K camera with mechanically stabilized optical zoom, my iPhone 13 PRO MAX for many of the video shots you see when the 4K camera is too bulky to carry. I record audio with an old iPhone using voice notes and I use a cockpit audio recording cable I bought on Sporty's.
- What software do you use to edit your videos? I use Final Cut Pro on a MacBook and iMac
- Where do you find good royalty free video clips? I use artgrid.io
- Do you do all the editing? Yes, all this work other than some filler video clips and music is my work 100%
- What oxygen system do you use? I use Precise Flight cannulas and their X3 oxygen conserver regulators with the boom cannula. Works good but the boom could use some better engineering.
- Do you promote products? Never! I keep my videos sponsor free and continue have unlimited and unrestricted fun without a "boss" or watching my words.
- You fly so good don't you make mistakes? I make tons of errors which I will never show you lol
- Where are you from originally? I was born and raised in beautiful Greece and came to the US as a College student. Loved the Country decided to stay and build my career here. Best decision ever.
- How do you afford to own an airplane? Airplane ownership can be expensive but when done right, in the US, it becomes a wonderful tax deduction that can allow you to fly for business almost for free. Get trained well, get a bank loan and buy yourself an airplane for your business.

Just finished making my morning coffee and this drops. No better way to start a morning!
That's the kinda bumpy approach that just makes you feel so grateful when you're finally out of the plane. Love your videos as always.
Way to battle that turbulence and xwind. Great job thanks for posting!
I like everything about your flying technique.
Another great vid…looked like a busy approach. And ya, that hotel room looked like a closet! Thanks for taking us along Niko!
Glad to see you back! Missed your videos.
..always a great day...when Niko posts another great video..and please..keep em coming ..
Great job Niko. Yup the production just gets better and better. And the thriller/drama element with the winds 16g24 always adds to the finale! 😆🛩
Hey Niko, welcome back! I flew out, and landed at Teterboro Airport couple times. That's one busy airport due to all those private jets. Wow, I saw your left hand getting some serious workout on landing.🤣
Good to see you traveling again, Niko! As always, great storyboarding and editing. Excellent choice of music to match the clips. And your photography is always fantastic. Sierra Zulu sure is beautiful!
Hey Niko Awesome video as always here’s to 2024!! I see you got a Porsche!! Outstanding!! Keep them videos coming!!,
Your videos are always interesting Niko. I really enjoy watching them
Slow and steady wins he race my friend. Keep up the great content and safe flying!
So funny I see you post. I was just thinking about you this morning because I am flying to either Kenosha or Burlington today for my commercial long cross country flight. For years while waiting for the FAA to issue my medical I day dreamed about flying thru your channel. Glad to see you are flying and doing well my good sir.

Love your videos!!!! Always great footage, editing, and narration!!!
Thanks a lot for this new video waited for quite long. Always a pleasure to watch it and see how you enjoy flying…
That was awesome. I enjoyed it very much. Great flying, great radio work.
Love it. Those Teterboro controllers are awesome. They’ll give you a ribbing about being slow, but they’ll get you in. I flew in there last year and I think he mistook me for a Bonanza - which flies about 30-40 kts faster than me. He called me out for being slow and doing me a favour, but he fit me in there.
I always love watching your videos, Niko. They remind me of why I love flying planes when I don't get the chance!
