@@SMaamri78 I’m a student pilot. At first I felt very intimidated by ATC and how fast they give instructions, but after a while I started to get the hang of it. There’s also no shame in asking them to slow down and/or repeat the instructions. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve said “read back slower please, student pilot.” You should try to get back into it if you ever feel confident enough!

I can't imagine the satisfaction of starting up that engine, what a beautiful machine and a fantastic job.

I love your new paint & interior! I soloed in 72 got my private ticket in 75 with over 400 hours, then complex aircraft in a Comanche 250. I've been flying since 1958 when my Dad bought his first plane. We had a sod strip and hanger in the back yard out in the country. My bucket list dream is to fly in the cockpit of a private jet at flight level 410 or above, to see the curvature of the earth. I doubt that will happen now, my Dad sold the Comanche 250 when he got Parkinsons, then passed away 6 years ago. I worked in our print shop with him for 45 years every day, I really miss him. I've watched all your videos, almost makes me feel like I'm up there. Please keep them coming, they're Awesome! Dan

LOVE when you fly out of Naples. I get to see my home towns of Sanibel/Captiva islands.
