- King Air 250 Single Pilot Flight From Wichita, KS(KICT) to Miami, FL(KTMB) on March 20, 2020. This was a New Aircraft Delivery Flight for a customer in South Florida. There was a line of weather on the route down to Florida and was greeted with very gusty winds on arrival in South Florida. Enjoy.
This man just remembered his whole IFR clearance lol, I cant even remember a freq and squawk combo without writing it down.
Lot’s of repetition! I’m sure old age will start catching up to me soon enough. Thanks for watching!
Yep, I am a student pilot and yes, I am having to write down the freq and squawk code.
I could not believe it. I cant remember my name. I am getting old
Ain't that the truth LoL
Amazing indeed
This dude is one hellva pilot. Sharp as a tack !
I appreciate it!
Thats one hell of a stick of gum! Lasted the entire way to Miami!
You should see how long I’ve made other pieces of gum last!
It's great to be able to fly the King Air 250. This is my favorite airplane. It seems that there was a lot of shaking around Florida. You showed me a perfect landing. I'm a Japanese King Air fan.
Thanks so much for watching! It’s always bumpy in South Florida. Where in Japan? I’ve been there several times.
What a nice aircraft the King Air 250 is. The panel could be lighted for startup. Like those forward vent windows that can open up.
Those windows are nice in summertime before the plane gets started up.
Great vid. It was fun watching it and enjoyed the cockpit views.
Thanks for watching!
Gear- UP
Landing lights- OUT
Yaw Damp- ON
Good video!
Thanks appreciate it!
It’s Amazing!
Thanks for sharing.
Thank you!
Thanks TALLYHO!, Beautiful Bird
It is!
My SIL was a CFII at PTC there at KTMB. He's now flying charter in C90 and B200 King Airs, mostly out to the Bahamas and back. It's a rough life,😀, but somebody has to do it.
Very nice! I’ve done that myself a long time ago! I think most pilots from Florida end up doing it! LOL
That was fun. I wish you I could deliver me a King Air 250 too! LOL. Have a good day!
Wouldn’t that be nice! Maybe one day, LOL
Well that sure is Flying in Style.
I try! Thanks for watching!
Great video! Beautiful airplane.
Thank you!
Good night captain Excellent vídeo !
Thank you very much!
I'm glad I got to get this channel and I'll be ready to ride of fly along side you in this Beautiful Aircraft
Bernard Anderson of course! Anytime!
loved the video mate! im really looking foward to be able to do my ppl training and sit in a plane. love to see you fliyng that beast on your own.
greetings from Argentina!!
Thank you very much! That is very cool! Good luck with your training. It great to see so many people getting into aviation. Will you be doing it for fun or thinking of making it a career?
Absolutely awesome video, thanks so much for sharing.
Thanks so much! I appreciate you watching!
Dam I want some of that gum he's smacking on..shit that stuff lasted the whole flight!!! ..lol
Apparently he used 3 sticks
I’ve been to that private airport multiple times in Wichita. Very nice
Which private airport? There are a couple.
I like the instrument panel no idea why it just looks 😎
Rockwell Collins Pro Line Fusion.
John Miller Cheers John
@@classicraceruk1337 This might be TOO deep a dive, but Rockwell Collins has made a 26-part video set on the Pro Line Fusion system. czcams.com/play/PLMBKNyGwDnjoiGp6R5QxtfR9VCHUPl4X1.html :-)
John Miller is that all😏 !!!! Thanks for the link I will have a look at some of it
@@classicraceruk1337 Ha! Yeah. I am hoping for a chance to pilot one of those aircraft, so for me, it was for study purposes. :-)
Initial rear quarter profile shot and I’m thinking, damn, Jason Bourne is stealing a King Air…
That stick of gum lasted the entire flight??? Hahaha excellent landing, you make it look like another day in the office! I trained out KTMB myself!
master1387 lol, no! If I remember correctly it was 3 different pieces of gum! Very cool! I always enjoy flying in KTMB
You make it look so easy. Did my first XC and I was having to continue to change frequencies as So-Cal approach. I was busy the whole time and making lots of radio calls. No auto pilot. Not relaxing like you where. Hmm. Again, I am a student pilot.
So nice watching this ❤
Always fun getting the King Airs up by yourself! I was able to deliver a few 250’s by myself from Wichita to Edmonton :)
Bushy calgary is my home town you were in gods country
lefty gazelle I am in gods country.
@@Bushy_P awesome Alberta ?
Really working that gum over
I like gum! 😂
Great information.
Thanks!
I love your video. Awesome aircraft.
Thank you!
What a cool
Video … one day you fly my eclipse jet and one day I fly your king what a gorgeous class plane
Not my plane, just stole it for the day!
Hey I might be thinking of the wrong guy but didn’t you fly with citationmax a couple of times?
Yep that’s me!
Hi. What's your maximum range you have achieved in the the King Air 250/350? Love your videos.
Thanks so much! The farthest I’ve ever gone was a KA350ER CYYR(Goose Bay, Canada) to EGPC(Wick, Scotland). Non stop Atlantic Crossing.
@@tallyho4483 You’re able to fly a king air over the Atlantic directly with no refueling stops? Didn’t know it was capable of that or ETOPS rated.
@@anthonycedar7 Not to come across as a dick but ETOPS stands for " Extended Range Twin Operations Performance Standards" and that route is the route that most smaller air planes fly when crossing the pond. Its the shortest distance between land. And even the ferry pilots do it in the smaller Cessna's using fuel bladders.
@@anthonycedar7 Sounds like he flew the 350ER. It has a range of approximately 2300nm and some variants approach 2600 nm. Don’t know if it is ETOPs rated.
Dear Pilot Beechcraft ! You have all check list procedure in your head-remember-pilot- from take-off to landing..You flying very vell -.Nice-,super,-perfect-Pilot.! You driving beech machine solo without anything an instruction book.,i
I wish you good-luck in your aviation career. ..more video.Please.!
Greetings from Poland.!! Great-job.
Your sincerely enthusiast-aviation Henryk.!!
Thanks so much for watching! I am working on more videos!
Sweet video
Thanks!
That is a beautiful Lady you are flying. I wasn't aware the king air was single pilot now?
It’s always been single Pilot certified.
@@tallyho4483 I stand corrected. Thanks!
This is probably going to come across as an ignorant question from a non-pilot. But when you're in straight-and-level flight like that at 33k feet, autopilot doing its thing, can you get up and go back to use the head as a solo pilot? If not - how is the issue addressed? Depends? (As in, the adult diaper - not as in, "it depends".)
Not an ignorant question at all! The pilot can not leave the seat when they are at the controls, so if you are single pilot, you are stuck there. There is always the Gatorade bottle or little bags called porta-johns that can be used. I have not had to worry about this yet, I make sure not to drink very much the night before and nothing in the morning. Usually 4 hours is not a big deal. If I have another pilot with me it doesn’t really matter.
Looking good.
Nice flight, time to spit that gum out.🤣
Still chewing it! LOL
Awesome video!! New subscriber here.
Cheers from Paraguay!
PS: I'm a Private Pilot (PPL) getting my Instrument Rating hopefully soon :P
Hello! I’ve been to Paraguay once, it was very nice! Good luck with your Instrument Rating!
Like to see frequent shots of Heading and Altimeter
Awesome vid - Tell Stan I say hi. :)
Thank you very much! Will do!
The gum chewing must sound nice on the radio calls.
Dude I have mastered the art of talking and chewing gum at the same time. You guys are obsessed with my gum!! Lol
What a chewing gum...! ;-) Nice video.
Still chewing it! Lol Thank you!
Hey Man, does your King Air come with the enhanced payload upgrade?
No, it was the normal configuration.
Must be noisy, the exhaust points right at the cockpit. Everyone needs those Bose headphones.
Believe it or not it’s not that bad compared to the older models. All the noise is from the props, but the new designs have made huge changes in the noise in the cabin.
Thanks for the video. Which is more enjoyable to fly the 250 or 350? or do they feel the same?
Thanks for watching! They honestly feel the same . The older planes you could definitely tell a difference between the two, but the new ones are very close in performance.
@@tallyho4483 Cheers!
New subscribers.
Was that IFC you parked at, at TMB?
I learned to fly out of that place back in 1990.
Yes it was. That’s cool! Are you still flying?
No comment about progress or performance.
Sorry, still was working on audio when I filmed this.
I live in a town called Yokohama in Japan.
It's near Tokyo. I can't see King Air in Japan. This is my longing airplane. I can't get on the actual machine, so I'm playing with Microsoft flight simulator. I have an airplane commercial license and a twin-engine license. The plane was licensed long ago at Hawthorne Airfield in Los Angels, USA.
I’ve been to Yokohama once on a delivery flight. I used to instruct at a Japanese flight school years ago in Oregon.
Love it
Fly Outwest thank you very much!
I have never seen anyone chew gum that fast in my entire life.
Lol, must be the energy drink!
Hey Tallyho. Great video. I was offered a job as captain (single pilot) on the 300 G1000 my last job was FO on the 200 G1000 85 hrs flight safety trained. I’m up for the challenge but do you think this is too much of a jump? 1500 500 multi. Thanks and keep up the great work!
Hey Rob! Thank you! Congrats on the job offer! I believe you should be just fine being you already have 85 hours and you’ve already gone through training at Flight Safety. The 200 and the 350 are very similar, so you shouldn’t have much of an adjustment. I was actually an instructor at Flight Safety Wichita in the 350 program several years ago, so I’ve seen many people make that transition. Just remember going to single pilot from the Crew environment is a hard transition. But you already know the ins and outs of the airplane. It’s the decision making process and the flow and checklist usage that gets most people. It’s going to be new, so follow the profiles and callouts exactly in your Pilot Training Guide. Study those just as much as the Required Knowledge Areas, if not more, and you’ll be fine!
@@tallyho4483 Thanks so much for the fast reply and thanks for the vote of confidence! Flight Safety did make me a better pilot, for sure. I was second guessing myself but I picture myself, someday, as cool and confident as you are in that cockpit.
Tailwinds
Rob
you fly hot ITT's
As long as it’s in the green it’s all good! LOL Plus I was at a high cruise altitude so you have to run on the hotter side to maintain a good TAS.
New subscriber here, cool videos! Is aircraft delivery pilot a full time job?
Thanks so much for subscribing! For me it is a full time job, but I believe most other pilots do it on a part time basis. Many contract pilots that I’ve met typically have a full time job and are only doing contract flying on the side.
Single pilot love that
Nothing better than single pilot flying!
I just started watching, great videos. Do you always fly out of Wichita
Thank you! No I fly all over the world. Usually the flights out of Wichita are delivery flights or return to service flights from Textron. I just go wherever I’m needed.
@@tallyho4483 Sounds like a cool job! My dad (now retired) has close to 15k hours on this. He flew for an Indian State Govt. I believe they recently bought their 3rd King Air (250).
ghostryder that’s very cool! I delivered a 250 to the Indian Government a while ago.
Do you need a type rating for this? And why don’t you have a fo? I though all king airs over 200 models needed them?
The only Type rating needed for the King Air would be the 300/350 or a 250 with the increase gross weight mod, but there are not very many out there. All King Airs are single pilot approved airplanes, so no FO needed unless the Pilot is not single pilot typed or a requirement by the company operating the airplane or insurance requirement.
What’s your opinion of the Pro Line Fusion vs. the G3000 and G5000 in the jets you fly. Do you have a favorite?
TheCrjflyr I’m not a fan of the Fusion. It is too cumbersome compared to the G3000/5000. It almost feels that it was rushed and needed another year or two in development. The transition from Pro Line 21 to Fusion just is not very intuitive.
Have you flown any of the turboprops with the Garrett/Honeywell TPE331 engines?
I have, it’s been a while tho.
I want to do this so bad.
Go for it!!
You sure got your nickel's worth out of that piece of gum...
I like to get my money’s worth out of things!
how I manage to have a king air 250 and its papers and have it come to the Tunis airoport and also for customs
🇧🇷
OMG that chewing gum! 😂😂😂😂😂 🤦🏻♂️
Great video I didn’t see you use checklists any reason for this?
Thank you, mostly edited out to keep the video shorter.
@@tallyho4483 That makes sense but I didn’t see you write down your clearance. It was “cleared as filed” and much of it, including altitudes, departure frequency are expected, at the least you don’t know your squawk code in advance. And what if you didn’t get “cleared as filed”?
because I am 15 years old and I would like to drive it at this age with a ppl license
What kind of customer?
What do you guys think about a King Air 250 versus a PC-12 for personal use?
Just a private customer, that’s all I can say. I have no experience with the PC-12. I believe the 250 has a little better performance with the new engine and prop combination, but I’m not sure. Me personally, I’d rather have 2 engines than 1.
@@tallyho4483 Yeah, two engines is my thing too! I'm still 1-2 years away, but it's always nice to get feedback.
It will be here before you know it! Just keep doing your research and ask all the questions you can. I’m always available if you have any more questions.
@@tallyho4483 Awesome! Thanks!
Do you know anything about the differences between the King Air 250 and the 250 EP?
Of Course! I do not have any experience in the 250EP. Just because it requires a very obscure type rating. I do have experience in military variations of the 200 with 350 engines and 300’s. They are the same thing but still fell under the BE-300 type.
How long is this flight?
Elmoy it was just over 4 hours.
Does the 250 have an autopilot system?
Yes it does. The avionics in the 250 is the Rockwell/Collins Fusion
home bo! be picle juice.
Yo! Pickle juice?
What does a plane like this cost
Several million!
How did you become a king air pilot ?
I went to training many years ago.
How tall are you?
6’3
Hy , can i pilote the king air with ppl licence ? Just the ppl licence
Yes but you would need a multi engine rating and you would be limited to 18000ft in VFR conditions. This only really applies if you own the plane outright. If you want someone to insure you you’ll also need an IFR rating and maybe a type rating as well.
Hope you had fun. Your carbon footprint just burned my house down.
Oh I did! I’m flying a much bigger jet today, it’s going to be great! You can always go gluing your hand to a road in protest!
Once you deliver the aircraft, how do you get back?
Usually just airline.
without foundation!!!
Huh?
How did you avoid that weather that is shown behind you?
vecchiotom1 I was mostly above it. I believe I had to deviate a few degrees to go around a cell that I could not get on top of.
Ok great video.... I fly a King Air 90. Keep up the good work!
vecchiotom1 thank you! That’s awesome, sometimes I miss flying the 90. It is a fun airplane.
How many packs of gum did this guy chew?? add your best guesses below! ha........
The answer will probably shock you!
😂
AVIÃO RUIM E PERIGOSO JÁ MATOU MUITA GENTE EU IA COMPRA UM PARA A MINHA FAZENDA MAS NÃO VOU MAIS EU EM
More cameras? Same view gets old Watching you chew gum is not captivating.
Then by all means please stop watching! It kills me that you’re not captivated with my gum chewing!
BFD done it many times but I don’t post on CZcams 🤡
Congratulations?
