Watching Charlie enjoy this is exactly why I never fly without an empty seat! Why not fly a passenger if you have the choice! This is why I'm so frustrated my school still won't allow passengers due to their COVID rules. Really looking forward to meeting up with you mate, I'd also fly you if I was allowed!!
Great fun video Ben. Really nice to see and hear Charlie's responses. Always good to share our flying experiences and especially when they really appreciate the trip. When I was at work I flew most of my staff at different times (and there are few primary school headteachers who can say that! ) always a great bonding time and most really enjoyed it. I liked the way you made sure Charlie was comfortable before you did much. There are some out there who think it is clever to terrify their passengers by throwing their machines around. We want people to enjoy it and come back for more... Well done on another great film!
Lovely stuff Ben. Very nicely done as usual. 👌👍
Great Video Ben and a star studded cast, setting a new bar!👍😀
Do we have a new convert to GA? Great video Ben, looked like a really fun flight! Great to see Charlie enjoyed it too.
It's great taking up an appreciative passenger isn't it - almost as much fun for the pilot as the first timer I always think. ...and I must compliment you on your approach and skill as a pilot, I had no idea you only had 60 hours stick time yet you fly like an ol timer pro.....good work sir! (..and nice to see the last BA B747 on the deck at Kemble at the end..) Loved that, great vid as ever....
Brilliant! Love Charlie and love his show. It's just a shame you didn't jump on the chance when he asked when you started flying, to say, "Yesterday!". I'm sure he would have appreciated that! You looked after him really well and you're a great advocate for GA Ben. Well done! 👌👍
One of your best Ben . Charlie’s reactions were gold dust . So glad he had a good time and hopefully one of many more to come . Stay safe , keep healthy and may your gauges always be in the Green 👍.
Good one Ben. It never gets old seeing the enjoyment that most people get from their first flight in a light aircraft. Makes you appreciate how lucky we are to fly. Nice landing as well, especially under pressure from the other traffic and having a first time light aircraft passenger on board.
Cool video Ben! So cool having a "big kid" for a passenger... that's what flying is all about - massive smiles!
Good to see Kurtan enjoying it
He absolutely loved that didn’t he 😂. It’s always great when you have a passenger that really enjoys it like that! Keep em comin mate!

Good luck mate, you will absolutely love it 👌👌
Another great video Ben, love the passion and enthusiasm only pilots will understand. Especially having a passenger who enjoys it like he did , makes it all worth it. 👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼👌👌👌
Nice flight, with dito Wx and plane! 👌🏻
Well how much fun did you have with that? Nice to share the fun.
Great video as usual Ben! If you ever fancy a meet up, would be great to fly into West Tisted and meet you there in the EuroFox. You introduced me to West Tisted and it’s now a strip I absolutely love flying into!
Nice one Ben, its a good Thursday, lots of flying videos. Your flying is looking natural but don't fly with me, I like a bit of unusual attitudes ;). NO the earth is not flat...lol
Did you say to Kemble Tower that you were 'with Charlie'? Ha ha! See what I did there?! Just listening to you on the radio. Just watching a bus drive past with Kerry on it! I think my friend's auntie was mentioned in a couple of episodes! We miss TC, I'm sat here bombarded by Ben and TC LOL! Good airmanship Ben, you took good care of Charlie, maybe he'll be another convert to the cause? Always nice to enjoy your first flight. Charlie is right, those sites are all on 'leys'. My friend's dad helped excavate SH too. Surprised you didn't see crop glyphs and UFOs/UAPs too - LOL!
Hi Ben, not flying is rubbish, spoke to Paul Shanley the other day and sends his regards, nice chap. Tim

No way! If Charlie ever fancies going open top in a flexwing then give me a shout. 😀
Did you report final?
No Daisy today, so you get to wear the Bose...
Just a questing. I'm struggling to pick a flying club. Am I reading it correctly that David charges £975 (including club membership) per year to join the MLG? And then £65per month and then £70ish per hr wet?

That is for the MLG yes, designed to give you the closest thing to owning, without the surprise bills. And you get a choice of all three planes, I don't think I've ever not been able to fly due to plane bookings. You don't have to be a part of the MLG but you may more per hour. I find its the perfect balance.

@@BenAtkinsonVideos Thank you very much indeed. I've been looking far and wide for the right school from where I live in wsm. There is Dunkeswell but you can't solo on their planes. Man city, where Rory is bssed was the best for plane hire but too far. Amazing, I'll be intouch with David once he reopens
Ben, mate, they're not planes, planes are things carpenters use. You fly aeroplanes.
And the Wright Brothers did not invent "flying" - they were very late to the game.
