- That was definately something from my bucket list - a flight in the States around Chicago Downtown (Loop). It was my very first flight in North America at the time. I took off from Chicago Executive Airport KPWK where I rented a plane from. The weather was great throughout, great ATC and nice controllers in such busy traffic area. The views took my breath, that was definiately what I was dreaming to do!
Huge thank you to Dan, who was happy to explain some differences between flying in USA and Europe. I am glad you were happy to help make my dream real.

Best way to see the city is by plane or boat. Both great!
Thanks ;)
Chicago looks stuning from the air and the ground!
Chicago ❤️
Great place to be :)
Stunning video, amazing views, the airport looks fairly busy. Thanks for sharing ;)
Thanks Billy!
What a great experience and a great video of Chicago's skyline. Not sure if any "executive" airport in the UK would come anywhere near the size and quality of this one. Glad you gave a good account of UK pilot training as well !
Thanks for your nice comment, Chris.
It was fantasic experience, worth getting in the book. I would love to repeat that in the future.
Jet traffic and fees forced most planes like this out.
Amazing video! I also flew from PWK to explore downtown as my birthday present a few months ago. What an amazing experience!
I hope you had a nice time there :) Where did you fly?
@@theflyingadventures Just east of downtown along the shore, down to Gary before turning north and heading back. I’ll send you some pictures if you provide your number.
I made my first solo at this airplane ))
@@chicagocarsandcoffee where are you from? I’m also from Ukraine
@@flyinter1988 I’m actually not Ukrainian or live in Ukraine. I am a Russian living in Chicago who supports Ukraine.
Let me guess- this is 31G?)
It is :)
