  • This is the first leg in our Bahama's 2018 Island hopping adventure. We depart Aurora, IL (ARR) on our way to Ft. Pierce, FL (FPR). FPR is our staging airport in and out of the country. Hurricane Michael had just made landfall and was in the Georgia/South Carolina area. We had to stay west (behind) the storm on our way and plan our fuel stop to miss airports it may have impacted. We decided over Alabama to go to Williston, FL (X60) to top off.
    Williston was a perfect place for us. The people were very nice and friendly (turned out they were fan's of the channel as well). The fuel was cheap and the airport was very well maintained. Thank you guys for a perfect quick stop on our way down to the islands!

    I used to fly the C-310 flying freight. What a blast it was when I was much younger. From there to corporate jets, then to Fed Ex.

    • @310Pilot
      @310Pilot  Před 5 lety

      Doug, some guys are still hauling nightly freight in them...long gone are the canceled checks that a lot of people cut their teeth on. I fell in love with them when I was flying a C-401 for an aerial mapping company in my prior life. Congrats on an awesome sounding flying career! Fed Ex is pretty much the big dog of pilot jobs. :)

    Love your videos. You two are a great team. If I get active again, I will need to get my wife on the radio as well.
    I flew a 310 into Mexico a couple of times in the 80s and enjoyed it.

    Our son and his family lived in Aurora for a few years and we visited at Christmas a few times. I can understand how excited you were to see the ocean and looking forward to the Bahamas. We lived in Mass near Cape Cod for many years and now live in Southeastern Louisiana. Don't miss the cold weather. Great video as always and looking forward to the next one.

    Really awesome flight, Kevin. “Flying” with you two is like flying with family. Y’all are both so cool. You give us step-by-step information on the flight, but you don’t overdo it with too much info. You two also communicate with each other, just the way loving couples should do, and that’s great to see. I thought it was amazing, when you talked with that ATC controller about a guy y’all had previously worked with. It’s a small world when you find out about friends who have moved on, and you talk with someone a long way away, who knows them. Pretty cool!! Hope you two had a really wonderful time in the Bahamas, had fun, and got a lot of rest. Hope you had a safe flight back home. Looking forward to the next video. As always, Happy Flying, and Safe Landings.

    Another awesome video by 310BC ! I love the camaraderie of everyone in the aviation industry. It must be a nice feeling to talk to co-workers where ever you go. You have now officially attained Celebrity Status! When a fellow pilot asks if you are the CZcams guys, it's time for an encore! I love listening to JFKGround Controller Steve Kennedy. You may not have hear of him but he is a Living Legend at KJFK! He recently retired and deservedly so after his many years! Waiting for the next segment of your Bahamas Vacation! Love you guys!

    • @310Pilot
      @310Pilot  Před 5 lety

      Thank you James...glad you enjoyed the video! We are getting used to being recognized. Given that we are fairly quiet/private people it's still a bit strange to us. Everyone that has recognized us (from OSH to flying over the Bahamas) has been very nice. Love the aviation community and those that are interested in it. I have heard the JFK guy before. :)

    Another AWESOME video you two. Thanks a bunch. Sounds like this is going to be a GREAT trip. I have mentioned this before but since I am in Canada working and have no other means of entertainment I am relying on the two of you and a couple other You Tubers to keep me entertained. LOL What this translates to is a gentle request for "more" please. LOL You two are VERY entertaining and it is a pleasure to watch your videos for either purely entertainment value as well as a learning tool. Of course it is slightly more entertaining when you are BOTH present (cloud surfing was fun Kevin but Jaimie always has great commentary) but I'll take them either way. Keep up the great work.

    • @310Pilot

    You're nationally known YT stars now! Soon to be Internationally known once you get to the Bahamas! Say hello to Shaun & Jon of Corporate Pilot Life in Florida they do some grea videos too!
    I always love your videos too so nice and relaxing not hearing music during the entire flight, just the soft purr of those great sounding engines and soft sleepy sounds from the back.
    Looking forward to the rest of your trip!
    I am from the Pacific NW and so have Ocean 1.5 hours west and Mountains an hour east, but lived in the midwest and it was hard not having them close by! Enjoy your flight and time on the beach!

My brother-in-law was a private pilot, he had a glasair but sadly was killed in it when he crashed on a gulf course in Mesa Arizona flying off some upgrades that were done out there. He took me to Oshkosh one year for the air show, that was crazy but enjoyed it.

Jamie, you are a sweetheart.. It did occur to me that it's about time someone started posting hour long or two hour long vids. So... I see an opportunity here lol.. Small segway.. < did I spell that right? I keep watching and thinking I'm just going to buy a plane! but between you and Baron Pilot...

I say buy a plane...you listed some really cool ones. It all depends on your "normal" mission. If you want to fly at night a lot, over water, low IMC, need to carry a lot then the twin would be my choice. If you don't need to cary much and want to haul butt on relatively low fuel...Lancair (I've always loved the IV-P). Have fun down low counting cows or going to grass strips etc...Carbon Cub!

    Wow, a pleasant surprise to see you guys stop in at Williston airport, the Williston airport is an old B-25 base, I have good memories of that place with the warbirds and restoration work, my cousin and his stepdad are the ones who put Williston airport back on the map (figure of speech), new asphalt, facilities, hanger, etc., it was pretty run down when they got there, a lot more planes parked there now than when I was there just from see the short clip of when you were pulling up next to the hanger, we had some big birds there like A-26 Invader and T-28 Trojan of course we would have friends with a B-25 Mitchell and T28 Trojan stop in and visit, aside from the town of Williston politics I miss the place. After they did all that work getting funding for new facilities and clearing the land and getting it tamed again after the five - 6 years the town found a loop hole to get out of the 10 -15 yr lease, they wanted to make more money now everything was looking good. Businesses were lined up and ready to come in and invest. ???? I still scratch my head and wonder. O well, life marches on and things happen for a reason, this was back in the latter part of the 80's. Just felt like sharing a little bit of history and insight about the place. The flight school operating out of there now has a youtube channel (MzeroA flight training) operated by Jason Shapperd, he seems like really great guy, good to see not all was lost and the place lives on and has more commerce than ever before.
