    Nice flight, Gentlemen! ATC Communications was pretty crowded, but understandable. Heard a "40MY" and thought it may be my old Pilatus, N640MY, but not the one. As a former ARTCC Controller, I was used to listening to three receiving sites in a 58,000 square mile sector in the Southwest. Your flights are always interesting and remind me of my PIC days in CE-500's and CE-525's. Bird Strikes are no fun, either especially the claims and paperwork.

    Hey Nashguy. I would if I could. Coming out of the cloud layer we knew we had missed the large bird at 12 o'clock. What we didn't see till I looked at the side camera and slowed it down was that we had barely missed dozens of birds. That was definitely an Oh sh#t moment.

    Excellent video, Captain! I have a question if you don't mind:Why do you switch seats depending on who is flying? This seems to be relatively recent change, as I remember in the past you remained in the left seat no matter who was flying. Does it have to do with this airplane?? Thanks very much...I appreciate it!

  • @captmoonbeam

    @captmoonbeam

    8 ай бұрын

    thanks. It has to do with a number of things. 1) Is the person typed in the aircraft 2) have we flown together a couple of times already 3) is this person comfortable being in a video. etc. My current copilot has flown in left seat more than he's been on video. Mike my previous copilot had much more experience than me but wasn't typed in the aircraft and wasn't comfortable being on camera so you never saw him over there.
