“There’s no penalty for going around it” I’m not a pilot, I’m a passenger and I appreciate this respect for aviation and weather.
Thanks for the time and effort you put in to this Greg. Vids are great and ever so enjoyable.
Absolutely gorgeous flight! Thanks!
Amazing as always Greg!! Thank you so much.
Great video -- thanks again for bringing us along!
So memorable. Loved it all. We're lucky to have you around. Ta!
Another great flight. Thanks for the ride.
Love the flying around the thunderstorms! Sky & clouds are so beautiful.
Great video as always! Really appreciate the consideration you put in for the cameras (especially in reference to checklists). Looking forward to the next one!
Another excellent video! Thank you for all of your work putting these videos together.
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
P1 Driver, Thanks for the beautiful flight through all those big thunderheads!! That one area with those three big anvil-topped ones that where all together, I felt an old, familiar shiver go up my spine that I hadn't felt in several years!! I once had one of those pop up between me and the airport while I was flying a Cessna 150. About 30 seconds later, the rain hitting the airplane sounded like machine gun fire! That day, I learned just how fast one could "get the heck out of Dodge" in a Cessna 150 when one had to!! Thanks for this and all the wonderful videos up put up for us to enjoy. Regards, Ernie
Greg a beautiful VLOG and love the convective activity that you were able to weave in and out from .
Fantastic, the T'storms awesome(to look at)...thanks Greg.
Thank you for this, loved hearing you putting your plans in place to get around those CB's, also very interesting to hear how much information ATC was passing to the traffic entering his sector about where the weather is. Great to see the L1011 parked at Tuscon. Great work putting these video's together, many thanks, Greg. Cheers.
This is my fav video from your work, because of the moving around to avoid the storms.
Those cloud tops looked amazing. Thanks for sharing it with us P1D
GREAT, as always. Thanks. Started again & i'm rusty on the radios. Enjoy listening to your calls. You're GOOD!
Thank you again, nice landing. As I watched from the UK we had our own thunder storm overhead. Can't wait for the next instalment.
Just received my Shirt from P1D. Nice photo of you and the plane. Thanks for letting us ride along from a distance.
Amazing flight. Really enjoyed the Pax asking questions.
Those are some awesome cloud formations, i've never seen anything like that. Great video sir
Great video! One of your best. Those thunderstorms were impressive.
Neatest flight ever. You lucked out on navigating around some wicked looking storms. Thanks for sharing. Loved it.
Thanks Greg, I always enjoy riding along with you. You make it look so easy. Regards from Daniel in South Africa.
Impressive landing way to go love the vids, oldie but a goodie
Amazing footage flying between those storm clouds!
Great video. I always like the radio communications. Cloud formations were spectacular!!
Another great ride. Enjoyed navigating around the thunderstorms.
Just fantastic to see the storms and course changes to avoid them.
Thank you. Great vlog. That was a nicely done.
Greatly enjoyed this flight P1D!! Those cloud formations were awesome views, from afar that is lol. Safe travels and will catch You again.
That was very enjoyable. Very interesting comments on dangers of different clouds. Very cool how slowly clouds appear to drift by.
Great upload as always and nice job avoiding all the nasty looking cb,hot weather storms are so powerful.On days like this it is always a blessing to have a cooperative well informed controller which is not always the case .Happy landings
Another great video. Thanks for posting. Fond memories for me. First solo cross country was into KTUS 11R landing with F-16's in the 11L pattern. Looking forward to your next video. First time I've seen 29's in use!
Missed this video, just saw it, amazing cloud shots, thanks. Bob.
Man, I love your videos ..... Thank you for posting. It takes a lot of time and effort to produce these.. Greta job...

P1D ...does it again...LIKE A BOSS !! Thanks, great vid !
In my opinion, best video you've done. Really enjoyed it!
Another Beautiful video! Great way to start my day!!!
P1D, thanks for these excellent videos! Great work on the aviation end, and on the video production, as well. I've learned a lot, and appreciate the excellent education! Oh, and thank you for your military service!
Great great great video!
Enjoyed,this one very much,thank you for bringing it to my attention!!
This is one of my favorite flight videos because of the storms.
I appreciate your co-pilot's questions, and the explanation of v speeds and density altitude. I had about 200 hours in a C-150 in my past life, and my pre-flight planning consisted of whether I could clear the tree off the end of the runway.
Watched this yesterday and was so stunned I had to see it again today. As a pilot I saw t-storms from a respectful distance, always in the lower atmosphere. I saw drawings, read descriptions, but never saw them like thisl. This is truly amazing, and beautiful, and terrifying, I'll never forget this amazing view of those monsters from above. It's like wending through some alien landscape.
Another fun video. I agree don't want a flight to be memorable for any of the wrong reasons. Storms were very accommodating, laid out a nice corridor for all you guys to fly through!
Thanks for taking us all on the ride. Uneventful really is the best way. I learn a little bit more with each flight. And I don't even have to pay for the fuel.

I much prefer boring flights.
I love the desert!! Maybe someday I can move there!! I know that feeling at the very end when the pilot finally gets out of the plane and takes a breather.
Thanks for coming to Amarillo man! I live there and always love when a KZreadr flies here! Cheers
Another great flight Greg! Those cloud formations were spectacular. It was almost like you were cruising through a maze of Federation star ships (probably about as deadly too).
P1D, I recently became addicted to your videos. I've always been a nervous flier when i have to travel. but some how watching your vids it really has alleviated alot of my anxieties. I've got a trip coming up and i look forward to watching more of these as my in flight movies.

Another great video and flight from 0GM! Loved the way you picked your way through the potentially dangerous storm clouds. Nice landing as well even with the the winds to contend with on final. Always enjoy your videos and love your in flight commentaries!

I'm an F-15 pilot from Saudi Arabia. I graduated (UPT) from Williams AFB, Phonix Az in 1991. You are doing a great job, I just bought a Phenom 300 and I'll be doing the same.
Threading the needle in Arizona monsoons was always a lot of fun. Especially with a light plane with no weather radar. Very nice video and like going back to old home week!
Cool flying with you!
nice video. you are allowing people to see nature in a way that they would never be able to see. thanks
Dancin’ with the clouds. Is there anything more beautiful? Thanks, Greg.

You came to my town! This is a great video, enjoyed watching it.
Great flight, Greg. Boy you had to do some maneuvers to dodge those thunderstorms. That one just before you landed was really a big one. Thanks for sharing such an awesome flight. Really enjoy your flight posting.
Another great episode...it was wonderful to see the developing storms with the classic anvil clouds. reminds me to research google for recognising stormy weather via the fluffy white stuff!!
I really appreciate your videos. I have to get Lasik before i can fly again. I miss it dearly so i'm flying through your videos. Keep it up!
One I missed - best way to spend the time I'm not at the airport... BEST weather video of any you've filmed.
Awsome videos,so enjoyable
Thanks Premier 1 Driver
Started watching in Spring of 2020. Kinda cool to see your older displays.
Very nice shots of those thunderstorms.
I followed that same route when I brought my Archer out here from Iowa in summer 05. Dodged storms all the way from ELP to AVQ. It's was much more interesting at 8500 feet. Had my cherokee painted at Premier FBO in 06. Good folks.
beautiful anvils. great video.
Great ride P1D
MERRY CHRISTMAS P1D! Keep aloft of the clouds and I am looking out for your videos for 2018!
Awesome vid Gregg keep 'me coming please ! '
Welcome to Amarillo. English field has decent food too. Yes it was really hot last week it's the dog days of summer here. Hope you enjoyed your visit. Enjoy your channel. Fly safe.
Outstanding!
Enjoyed seeing how one dodges all those ugly storms. Reminded me of your video when you were in your car on the Indi race track passing all the others.
Possibly the best vid yet with all that cloud dodging. Well done.
Great Video!
Enjoyed threading the storms with you. Lots of energy in those clouds and that big cell looked like it could suck a plane in, thrash it around and spit it out in pieces.
Looking very nice....Fly safe..
Absolutely stunning clouds! Streamed it on the 10 foot screen! 😋 Thanks for doing these!

Very interesting flt through the storms. Saw more anvils than at a blacksmith shop. Nice video.
The new paint job looks sharp!
Nice video. The conversation with your passenger was nice and made the video more interesting.
Gezz, that guy in the mini van was coming in hot with the chalks ..... pretty day; awesome video footage start to finish. What else can we envious You-tubers come to expect from an Ace! Thank you Greg! Happy New Year.

Nice 'hot' tie in at the end.
I love watching Greg and his twin engine jet . Avionics can be easy if you have had practical experience . Plus his plane is a small twin engine plane . probably a 6 to 8 passenger. Greg makes flying so easy and very relaxing . Its all about knowing what to do and to use your computer to regulate your engines for a safe accent and landing .
ENEMA!! I bet the pilot flushed out that waypoint :- ) Amazing cloud canyons, stunning.
Great circumnavigating those buildups! We used to get a really cheap Towncar at the other FBO by the terminal. Been a while since I attended an SC - Zona game though.
As a "veteran" with a whopping 10 hours in a Cessna 150 (logged 45 years ago!), who never pursued a license and never soloed (because one needed two good eyes back then), I want to say to you, Thanks! I love watching your videos. The vicarious experience is wonderful!

Another aviation vlogger said that, if he ever wanted to see mountains while flying in Florida, all he had to do was go flying amongst the clouds. Thanks for a great example of that, a great video, and the stunning views! (and some great, "canyon carving").
