- Fly with me from Canada to Texas on my ferry flight for Premier Aircraft Sales in one of the ONLY DA40 TUNDRA's in the country!
Day 2 includes my very first time flying in the clouds alone, taking off IFR from Lexington, Kentucky (KLEX) and flying into Bentonville, Arkansas (KVBT) the "Gate of the Ozarks"
If you're looking for a cute town with a diner and lake on the airport, KVBT is a great stop, and is featured on the "Flying Magazine"
Route: KLEX - KVBT

At some point aviation for me became kind of routine. These videos help me remember the magic and the fun of my early flying. You're going to look back on these videos someday when you've been flying heavies for a number of years and they're going to make you smile. Blue skies!
Love this comment!
I also got "the blahs" about flying after a few decades and 9,900 hours of it in jets. I was bored with it and I "quit." But, somehow, the flying universe showed me soaring in high-tech sailplanes, which can never be boring. Every flight is a new challenge. I've now been a "glider" instructor for five years and I love it more than when I first began. And, after all those hours in jets, the longest flight of my career has been in an aircraft with no engine. Flying for hours without an engine cannot ever get "blah" or boring.
Just discovered your channel. My Dad had your job during the 1950's. He ferried Piper Cubs up and down the East Coast as well as to the Caribbean. After watching you today I suddenly remembered that vivid sensation of *brightness* in the clouds from 65 yrs. ago when he took me up in a Piper Cub out of the North Brunswick (NJ) airport...just the two of us in the sky. He went on to fly L1011's and DC 9's for Eastern Airlines until 1986.
I'm adopting you as one of my online granddaughters (only have one IRL). I've subbed/liked, and will pray for your safety as you do the work you obviously love. Cannot wait for more! Sam Daniels.
how does one become a ferry pilot? seems like an awesome job
Hi Hayley,, fellow pilot here,,, great video, thanks for sharing. I like how you slow things down to suit your style.
I'm wondering tho, safety wise, if it's a good idea to have your bag stored unsecured in front of the seat, the stick rubbed against it when you did the control check and it could possibly be moved forward, perhaps jamming the rudder controls.
That’s awesome. I don’t fly however would love one day to be able to solo fly. Thanks for sharing your experience, it keeps me motivated to work toward that goal.
Nothing like your first solo IFR flight. Great confidence builder and thanks for taking us with you!
Totally agree!
Great video Hayley! Right when you were saying ‘you felt all alone but not really because all of you are with me’ I was thinking the same thing. I imagine flying alone has its moments when you think it would be nice to have someone there to talk with. Since you had the cameras, WE were all there with you, and I felt like I was there. Thanks for taking me along, looking forward to the next instalment 🤗
My oldest niece is a flight instructor with 1000 hours. She learned to fly at a big school with G1000s and left there terrified of flying IFR on steam gauges. It was fun teasing her about that. She can do both now thankfully. LOL Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the ride, I wasn’t worried a bit about the clouds
Nice! My first IFR flight was solo in a rented 172 with very basic instruments. It was above a solid deck with severe clear above, and the sun going down behind me! A truly magical experience.
I've been away from flying for a while, and hope to fly again this year; I'm glad to see knee boards and printed checklists still common.
BTW: Bentonville AR is also the home of Wal-Mart!
I really miss that kind of flying. After 24,000 hrs. of flying nothing but jet transport aircraft, you forget how much fun it used to be. Of course, all we had back then was vacuum driven steam gauges and fixed card ADF. You make this video very pleasant to watch. Good luck to you and stay safe!
Means - you landed on RW36 without clearance 😮. We‘ll not tell anybody. BTW - very professional, calm, friendly and with good flying standards. And - nice plane. Greetings from Switzerland.
Thank you for letting us fly along with you! IFR alone is different. Just like my first solo, I try to imagine a safety pilot or CFII sitting in the seat beside me....
I enjoy these videos, especially your comm with controllers. The music really gets in the way, though.
I really enjoyed being able to come along with you on this flight Hayley. I never was able to get into real world aviation but I get your excitement being able to fly above the clouds and see the magic there. It kind of echoes the feeling I had crossing an ocean alone in my sailboat, You see things very few people will ever experience, quite a thing.
Thanks for posting.
I can see your excitement.... or more to the point... your relief that you can see the ground again. I just finished my IFR training, and on one flight (with my instructor) we were in the clouds for over an hour, hand flying (no autopilot) and sat in a hold for 10 minutes before getting cleared to land. It's not an easy thing to do... Foggles are not really an analog for real IMC. When I broke out on that landing.... there was a huge mental load removed. My instructor said it gets easier.... and I'm sure having a good autopilot makes all the difference. Thanks for the vid.
An intrepid young pilot, and a great video of her first solo IFR flight. Well done! But I’m old-fashioned enough (and old enough in years) to wonder a little about over-use of an auto-pilot. My hope is that on other flights, and soon, she takes the opportunity to hand-fly the aircraft in actual conditions. It will always be an essential, possibly life-saving skill, even in an era of auto-piloted small aircraft. And it’s a skill easily degraded or even lost if not practiced regularly. Happy flying!
Couldn't agree more.
Great video!!! I also love flying through the clouds. It has that mysterious quality that you can't beat.
Great video, you may want to DC the music next time. Being a wife and husband pilot team it’s nice to hear both sides of the radio transmissions and the tires squeak on the runway.
Excellent Haley. Always great videos. Love riding along. You are never alone… Great enthusiasm!!!!
Your preparation and planning for IFR while on the ground, then your execution of the flight was excellent. You are a good pilot who sticks to the checklist and explains every step to us. Keep up the great videos. Dave from Canada
Well done; if you hadn’t said it, I wouldn’t have known this was your first solo IFR! I was a nervous wreck my first time!
As a PPL with relatively low actual time, I recommend flying IFR as much as possible to get practice being “in the system”, so that when you do need to fly in actual IMC, it’s not really anything new.
Some very good examples why it is to avoid saying "to" or "for" next to numbers such as callsign or altitudes. Thanks for sharing and demonstrating! Nice flight. I enjoyed both videos. See you in the next ;)
I noticed that as well after watching the videos- definitely working on excluding “for” in the future!
Sweet landing! Those tacos look killer! Now KVBT is on my list to fly to!
Hey Hayley! You flew right over my house if you were stopping at Lexington's airport. Great to see your adventures and your super flying skills in action.
Love your channel and I am a local at KVBT and keep my plane there. Next time you’re in town try Wrights BBQ for best brisket ever! Even if you’re not into art check out Crystal Bridges nearby. It’s world renowned but here which is crazy. Mountain Biking is major here and I am sure I am not the only fan here so just post a vid letting us know your coming to town and we can fill ya in on all the fun stuff going on.
I’ve been to Bentonville, cool little town, but flew into XNA. Thaden Field CBT looks really nice, cafe with a happy hour 🍸
It's great to see your professional & careful approach. I just hope the camera work doesn't end up as an unfortunate distraction someday. Take care, stay focused. Respect from New Zealand.
Love flying to Bentonville. Great airport restaurant like you said :)
Thx Hayley...Great flight.
Wow. One of the most delightful pilots I've heard on CZcams.
It is really satisfying to hear someone be so grateful and really enjoy what they're doing. Subscribed! Happy Flying!
Love these video's Hayley, please keep making them.
Great job Captain Hayley😊
Very exciting. Great job! 👏✈️
So cool, thank you for sharing your journey. Can't wait for the next one!
Fantastic, I loved watching that.
I have never flown in a plane. Thank you for for an absolutely engaging and interesting experience. It felt like I was in the seat next to you.
Great video! Thanks for sharing.
My congratulations Hayley Herberg for your successful, adventurous flying alone in the clouds for first time in your DA 40 TUNDRA IFR plane to the OZksars. You will be a good, successful pilot Hayley in the future. I will support your nice videos
Thanks Hayley for letting us fly with you!!!
Awesome landing great flight
Hayley... LOVE your videos.... you're amazing!
You made my eyes water. Love it.
another nice video, THANKS
Great video. It shows how much you really love flying 🎸
What a fun and experience building flight!
Great video Haley. Love to see the excitement and cheerfulness when you fly. Those of us who are pilots are truly blessed and IFR flying is part of that! I had some life changes recently and hope to get my IPC done soon to get back into the clouds. Stay safe and God Bless!
What an amazing channel and pilot !!! Incredible. I hope many young girls get to see you do what you do and inspire more female pilots.
So glad to have been with you on you're not so alone flight. I can't wait for the next
Thanks for sharing the moment. I believe you encourage a lot of people with your video, confidence, and professionalism in flying. I love how you take the time to do the right stuff before getting on the runway no matter time wise. Keep it up it's inspirational to watch you and teach others with your videos!
Good Flying and........ We look forward to more content
Love your spirit. I used to fly years ago. Really miss it. Thanks for sharing your world. in such an honest and refreshing way.
Great video!!
Really cool video. I love your sincere enthusiasm and passion for flying. Blue side up.
Great original content. Well done Hayley regards from the UK.
Watched a few now, and I see you are a lefty like me. I always end up landing left of the centre line.
hehe yeahh I have noticed that too through the editing process. need a little more cross wind correction!
Love your videos.
Be safe! Good video.
Love your videos, you are always so cheerful it must be the love for aviation. Can you sometime feature your airplane Debi? Love to see you take it for a flight. Safe travels
Good morning from Minnesota! Great episode!!
The waiting is over. Enjoying the content.
very smooth............
Great flight love ur plane and videos have in the skies and be safe looking very lovely
You are amazing. Love love love you!
Very pretty plane!
I recently got my instrument in my 6 pack with a 530…I would have waited for better ceilings 😂. Looks like fun!
Good to see you again beautiful love your content.
Good morning, young lady! I hope you have a fantastic and safe trip.
If you are ever back in KY at Louisville International KSDF or Bowman KLOU let me know. It would be great to meet you sometime, Hayley! Great flying be safe... Airmen Bob Anderson...
great video!
Nice to see you fly however I am really wanting to see more of your Bonanza. Thanks for sharing.
Beauty on the air , You flied alone !! Why you didn't tell us ? co pilot was available, I fly DA42's .
Very interesting details, well presented. LOVE your beauriful hair.
I have flown all over the CONUS, to the Bahamas, over Cuba to the Cayman Islands, to Baja California and every time to see new things and experience things that many people don't just like you did on this flight. Perhaps we will see you doing similar fun flights in the future. Ideally you will experience being above a solid cloud layer with it clear above.
Live in Minden always a left turn onto Wildhorse North end of runway be good and always be happy !!!
My 16 year old daughter just started her flight school today. So excited for her.
IFR alone, u got this Hayz.
Ur good to go.
Great vid! I fly a Remos Light Sport cant wait for my PPL love the diamond
There are Springfields EVERYWHERE.
I actually live in London where Diamond is located !! Fun catching your vid !! Have a blast !! 😀🇨🇦
Very good with checklist, and paying attention to instruments with IFR conditions!
Nice job. Bentonville is home to that little company called Walmart, so I imagine there are a few corporate jets flying in and out throughout the day.
Thanks for he ride!! Very professional attitude and pleasant demeanor!! Stay safe up there!!🙏🏻
Don't forget the Ray Bans next time!!😎
Good stuff❤️
Hayley hello from Prescott Arizona thanks so very much for the opportunity to fly with you on this beautiful journey and as always fly safe
Good Work 👍
Very nice! Diamond's are really pretty planes. I love their gray silver metallic paint, not to mention the maroons-ish red and the blue. I'd love to see a 2 tone scheme with the graphite gray metallic and metallic purple with a fade!
Good work
the way she grab the stick ,
nice flying
First time watching you great video we will see more of you 😊
I love that airplane.
Even before I got my license I flew through the clouds. I do it all the time on my parachute, and hang glider too.
.... Well done kid !
greased that one !! Good job.
It’s easy to bust a delta flying into Bentonville. Lots of pilot deviations up there.
Really enjoy your flights! Your attention to detail and proper flight checks are a solid balance to your infectious demeanor of joy. And you're right... you are very blessed, indeed. Do you do any training in Cirrus aircraft?
I don’t actually! Would be open to the opportunity to fly one someday
Thankyou!!
Those Diamond Aircraft are sure sexy planes nice and sleek and sporty! they are like the Ferraris of the aircraft variety!
Well done….piece of cake…)). I’m a 787 guy with one of the majors….learned to fly in the USAF a million yrs ago… nothin really complicated about it, as I’m sure you’re aware… Have fun and congrats on your airplane and getting more ratings in the future…. cheers….
Rock On!
She seems to be a very good pilot and beautiful young lady..No Fear..
Hehe you were really animated this flight.
