Feeling Proficient in a Brand New Vision Jet

It’s been a while since my last video! Thanks to those who have always reached out. It means a lot! There has been a lot of transition going on over the past few months! I haven’t been able to fly the Vision Jet much, until now.
Hopefully this was helpful on finding a mindset to feel proficient and current in the Vision Jet. Switching airframes is a lot of fun but there is some work on developing the mindset of the plane you are flying!
More videos to come! This will be a lot of fun!
Thanks,
Al

    Hello. I've been watching so many flight videos in the last 2 years and far away from taking lessons and buying my own plane. This video is exactly what I and people who have never flown need in order to understand the precise details needed to prepare, operate and fly. If I ever get to flying this is exactly the type of video I would be making to teach others. I wish the popular pilot guys would do this too. This really helps us understand how much is involved in flying. Thank you so much for making this video much appreciated.

    So many KZread aviation videos start the camera getting into the aircraft - but all of the interesting work is in the flight preparation before then. It's really nice to see a vid that STOPs at the takeoff, and concentrates on the preflight prep. All the same steps I learned on paper in the '80s, but prompted by aps and onboard glass cockpit systems instead of having to remember each process.

I always felt; If you can't fly 10+ hrs/mo...you shouldn't be flying. SO !! I went to X-PLANE11/12. Guess what? They have the Fusion on there with exactly your panel, etc. Your presentation is going to get me locked to doing the checklists right. Perhaps someday you put together a (brief) tutorial with performance/wt./balance charts to help me(us) better plan climb/cruising/descent profiles. I have taken to flying all over Europe in this beauty. I'm including all my old flying buddies (FEDEX,etc) by copying your site over to them. 3 of them already want to buy this PUPPY. OG-ZSE/ZOA

    Al Enjoyed going through the flight plan and route process on ForeFlight with an IPhone! I use the IPad mini myself. Once the engine is started and sucking jet fuel(💰), I am thinking that there has to be a quicker way the get the pre-taxi checks completed more expeditiously and save some fuel/money in the process. For example get ATIS before the engine is started. I am pretty sure the flight plan can be bluetoothed in with the plane on battery power. How sensitive is the battery for it to have sufficient juice to start after having it on for 5-8 minutes? On the take-off do you engage the TOGA switch with heading mode engaged to get an initial pitch reference attitude? Thanks for the effort…. 👍 Patrick from Albuquerque
