I started watching your KZread channel when I was working on my private pilots license. I’m now flying a challenger 350 at the largest corporate aviation company in world and I still love your videos. Best of luck on your new chapter, thank you to 851TB for all the memories!

@@yammmitFrom everything I’ve read and seen, the commercial airline industry is desperate for pilots. I have to believe this will open up some creative ways to get the necessary training. Perhaps even student loans similar to those available for colleges are an option or might become so in the not too distant future. I’m a retired baby boomer and know that many of the commercial pilots of my generation got their training by joining the military. However, unless something has changed, you need a 4-year degree to fly in the Air Force, Navy, and Marines. I’m not sure about the Army’s requirement for rotor aircraft. If you really want to do this, make it an unshakable goal and start researching. I always wanted to be a pilot but unfortunately my nearsightedness disqualified me from military or commercial acceptance, as there was no such thing as laser eye surgery way back then. Lol. Good luck!

You've been quite the ambassador for Daher-Socatta aviation products obviously, but also for Southern Florida and in particular, Opa Locka, Fort Lauderdale Executive and Pompano Airpark and the surrounding communities that you've flown over. Many of the viewers knew little about the TBM product line or 850, but now they certainly do. Same thing with the airfields and FBOs your job took you to. We are all indebted to you for the insights you've shared over the last 10 years. Your earnestness, candor and no-nonsense attitude and narratives are much appreciated. You've also exposed us to a number of interesting people over the years. There are many video bloggers on this medium that use aviation as their platform for broadcasting and letting the viewer into an aspect of their private lives......know that many of us are extremely appreciative of the time, effort, and dedication associated with your videos and with letting us share a bit of your life experiences. Take care, Steveo, and best of luck in the future.

I don’t usually comment on videos, but I wanted to give you a special thanks. I used to watch your videos at work during lunch, or I’d have one playing in a window on my secondary monitor if I had some CAD work to do (don’t know why exactly, but I found that I can still concentrate reasonably well on design work while listening to classical music or aviation vlogs... everything else is a big distraction.) I think It was the ones where you were flying to the Caribbean that really got the hooks in me, so I finally decided to stop daydreaming about it, go down to the local airport and earn my pilots license. I was 58 at the time and I remember my wife giving me the, “I want to support you, but are sure this is a good idea?” look ; ) I’m not going to lie, it was harder than I thought it would be, and I didn’t think It was going to be easy. Your videos gave me confidence, and inspiration to keep going. In particular your flight to some small island and landing in a super strong, gusty crosswind commenting that it was nothing for the local pilots who flew down there all the time. I’m sixty now, working on my instrument rating, have made some awesome new friends through a flightclub I joined (we fly an old piper warrior so no TBMs for now ; ) Without your inspiration at just the right time I’d still just be daydreaming about it, or worse, just given up on the dream and let it die with all my other high minded plans. Thanks Steve, Keep the blue side up.

Wow, your emotion sure shows! and for great reason. Thank you for letting us be a part of the N851TB family! It was a hell of a ride, and I personally can't wait for what's next! Thank you, Stevo!

The next aircraft you make home will continue your amazing adventure through the sky! We all look forward to when you get going again! This is an emotional time for you and frankly, all of us!! We have been on this adventure with you since you let us into the cockpit!! You have some great opportunities ahead of you still! Please remember to bring us along when you get there!! Take care, Steve!

I can tell how emotional this must be but the end of one adventure allows space for a new adventure. It has been a real pleasure sharing your flights and learning from your experience/s, thank you and good luck on your next journey!

Take a little time to move on, and be gentle on yourself. I’ve followed you for years and I’ve loved learning watching your professionalism and passion for flying. Thank you 🙏. I’m sure you’re next step will be full of new experiences and learning! ❤

Hey Steve! Been following your videos for years...student pilot/aviation enthusiast myself. I actually sat down with my mom and watched this video with her and kind of explained to her your career and what you've been doing for so long. Even her first time watching your video with me she felt emotional for you as did I. We can both tell you're upset to be losing "your" airplane. So a great ride you had. Change is a part of life though brotha... you've got so many more wonderful hours ahead of you in the sky, things happen for a reason... you'll be where you're supposed to be. Looking forward to seeing what's next for you Steve. You've got all of us to vouch for you, you lnow that! Love ya buddy

You are a blessing to all of us in Aviation. I'm looking forward to more of your videos with your new plane. Thank you for all you do Steveo.

It is a sad day Steveo, however change is what life is all about. It's how you handle that change that makes all the difference. You are a professional in every way on and off the job. You can pretty much design whatever future you desire. This time of change is not a problem, but an opportunity. You did your work here and did it well and now you are free to expand your horizons. I do want to thank you very sincerely for your body work here on youtube. I have enjoyed riding along with you and the contribution you have made to the aviation community is more than a lot of us can claim. Best of luck to you, Sir.

You're one of the precious few pilots in a single engined aircraft that I would fly as a passenger with, any time, any where. It's been a fantastic ride.

This is all part of the journey brother! Ive been in your shoes 5 times now in 22 years. Everytime it happened, I stressed over the unknown of what might happen. The last two times, I took comfort from my fellow Avgeeks and thought of the advice id give any of them.. -keep your head up because all things happen for a reason and it always works out. I took my own advice and now at the top of my career and very content where the journey has brought me. Im pumped for the next chapter for you and cant wait to see a new bird on the channel!

Steveo thanks for the update on you where about. When I read about you loosing your job on instagram, I was sad for you. Love your videos and places that you get to go. I’m glad to hear that there’s light at the end of the tunnel, and can’t wait to see what’s next on your future. God Bless you always.

What a crazy thing to think about Steve. I first remember watching your videos when I was in flight training back in 2017, and you, alongside with the likes of Flight Chops and others helped motivate me to become a better student and professional pilot. I thought you would be happy to hear that I have now been working as a flight instructor for four years, and gone up through the ranks to the highest instructor grade here in Australia, and recently completed my multi engine rating. What a rewarding career it has been so far, and I am forever thankful for your videos and insights. I can't wait to see whats next for the both of us! Best wishes mate.

Steveo, I could hear it in your voice, I know this video was hard for you to record. I am not a pilot; I've never even flown in a small plane. However, I was glued to every single video of yours over the years. I look forward to your next adventures. We all wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors. Thanks for sharing this part of your life with your subscribers.

I would think anybody who owns an exec aircraft that needs a pilot and who has seen your videos would be jumping at an opportunity to hire you. You have a great catalog demonstrating your skills, training, attention to detail, and airmanship. Good luck, Steve! 👍👍👍

I'm so sorry to hear this. Love watching your videos, I'm a TBM fan. You've been living the dream, regardless of where you go next, it's an awesome journey. 😊

Watching you made me feel like I was back in the cockpit with my dad, the way you talk to us as you run through your checklists and start her up. Your content with 851TB is still my favorite and it breaks my heart that both you and us have to say goodbye to such a special bird such as 851TB. You're a good man and she's a good plane and you two had chemistry. I'm sad to see that end as you are. I'll be right here looking forward to what's next. But for today, cheers to a special airplane.

Well that’s sad to hear Steve, I can imagine and see you feel emotional. Want you to know I really appreciate all your films on KZread. Your enthusiasm, kindness, flying and editing skills are so nice to see. I wish you all the best and I am confident you will embark on yet another great adventure where we, hopefully, can be a part of again. For now I wish you strength to proces this sad news but also trust and faith in the future. Greetings from a former pilot of a tiny MLA Dynamic WT 9 in the Netherlands.

I’m a flying tragic, Steve. I grew up always wanting to be a pilot here in Australia, but finances and what ended up being my career as a science teacher for 46 years precluded all of that. I should have pursued my dream but I didn’t. Now at age seventy, your videos in particular have given me a window into what it is like to fly a modern aircraft. I particularly love your commentary on every aspect of what you are doing and I look forward expectantly to the next episode in your life. Great work my friend.

Sir, reading your situation is an inspiration to me because my situation is similar. I've wanted to fly since I was a tike and just couldn't ever afford it and couldn't borrow the money to do it. I also let time get away but fortunately I am now near 40 and i'm going to pursue this lifelong dream. Sometimes I feel too old to be having a midlife change in career particularly where I have been fairly successful in what I was doing. You should at least go fly for fun if you can find a way to make that happen it would be great!

Steve I’ve been a listener for a longtime and your love for aviation and for N851TB is touching. I wish you the best in the next chapter of your career!

I’m sorry that you’re going through it man. I definitely know the feeling and it really hurts. I’m glad that your going to continue because it’s been an absolute pleasure to share your adventures. You have inspired me to get back in the cockpit and go for my commercial. Can’t wait for you to get back to making awesome videos. Keep your head up and fly safe my friend. God bless.

You're the GOAT and a pioneer of aviation YT content - you've inspired countless others to pursue aviation. We'll miss the TBM but we know it's for a good reason - cycles and seasons are times for growth buddy!

Hang in there Sunshine! After 40 years in aviation, you just put another hat on and keep going! Aviation, companies always going broke, getting bought out, mergers, etc! There are no guarantee's! My retired buddy of mine was the ONLY person I have ever known to be with the same company his entire career! You have a better chance of getting struck by lightning than to stay with one company your entire career! You will do fine, this is just a bump in the road! I've watched your channel because I've always dreamed of winning the Lottery, first thing I would buy is a brand new TBM and their newest model! So you were living my dream! Be grateful for the experience!

This channel opened my eyes to general aviation after years of only really liking the big planes. I found a deeper love of aviation here. Gonna be hard not to hear TBM 851TB on your channel, but I’m glad you’ve got something lined up! Thanks for everything!

Thanks Steveo for all the flights in the TBM 850 N851TB and taking us with you on your journeys - you really are one of the best out there and we loved every minute of it. I was a ppl pilot for some years in PA28 but age, and changes in my life has stopped all that so I only have MSFS, the flight vlogs to watch now and it so special to get to experiance that at least now. It so special to come along on your flights when able, you have no idea. MSFS Black Square has just released a study level awesome TBM 850 today and I'm sure I'll end up getting it, I cannot see a TBM without thinking of you & the vlogs! ❤ I can see the emotion of leaving behind such a partner as your plane, but so glad there is a new exciting journey coming & with approval for vlogs, so we all cannot wait for you to share you next job & journey with us all. Enjoy every minute of flying I miss very much. All the best LG

I’m certain this like all things happen for a reason and I’m confident you will move on to better things. I can’t wait to see what’s next for you.

Look forward to future videos. An outstanding pilot like yourself will not be out of work for long. Keep us updated.

Huge fan of your channel. A word of encouragement. In 1998 I unexpectedly lost my job. It took a minute to get my footing but when I did, it led to the most satisfying career move of my life--work that I still do today. I would NEVER be doing what I'm doing now if one of the worst days of my life had not happened. Very best wishes.

Steveo, I started watching your channel about a year and a half ago when I started becoming interested in a mid-life career change to becoming a pilot. I started my training earlier in the year and I'm loving it! Good luck with this new chapter. You're a great ambassador into aviation and I'm sure this will be a fun new beginning for you and us, the viewers!

Thanks for all the years and I look forward to the future with you!

Sorry the transition is hard but it's just making room for the new chapter! I can't wait to see what is next for you!

I just posted this on Max’s latest video, but I give props to both you, Max and Premier1D for helping me with my flying anxiety. I’d get near panic attacks for years upon take off but I’ve learned so much from you 3 that knowledge of what’s going on during the entire flight helps ease my mind and no longer have the anxiety I used to the. My last flight in June was a no big deal. So for this I thank you. Can’t wait to see what’s next.

Gah! I know exactly how that feels...Took me right back. You have the memories and experience of the good and bad and that's what makes a person great at what they do. Looking forward to seeing you in future content in the... Jet? Bittersweet condolences and congratulations, Steve.

Steveo, your emotion was evident. I've loved following your adventures in the TBM, and look forward to hearing, and following, your next, even better, chapter!

Good luck in your new adventure. I'm sure we'll all be right there with ya flying co-pilot.

Best of luck mate - watched this while in Istanbul for work... you definitely could feel the emotion under the surface... all the very best for the next chapter - your TBM has been a beauty... I'm looking forward to seeing what's next.

N851TB - That is a call sign I don't think I will forget. Thanks for taking us with you on the TBM. Looking forward to the next chapter. Wishing you the best of luck!

Well, Stevo. I know this might feel like a kick in the gut, but I’m sure you’ve got stuff waiting for ya on to bigger and better. Looking forward to see the next chapter and looking forward to riding along. You take care brother.

Best of luck! The best is yet to come

Good luck with your new and exciting upcoming adventure !

I've been out of aviation for many years, but I took my flight lessons out of Signature at St Pete Clw back in the days when Travolta was tooling around in his Dassault Falcon 900. I've been loving this channel for a number of years now because of how it takes me back to so many of the familiar airports you cover and the great production quality of the videos you post. The visuals, the audio, especially the music, all first rate. The conversations you have with the audience from the cockpit remind me a lot of the temperament and the competence I saw in my first flight instructor back in those days. Thanks for the memories and I'm excited for what's next. Take a bow, my man. Just awesome. Onward and upward!

Best wishes for the next Big Adventure! It is always fun and exciting to fly new types and go trough the learning curve, these changes are the events that makes us grow as a person and in a professional level, and drive us to always be better, to learn and to fly safer, although we are all going to miss N851TB, it's and always will be a part of the family! Now, eyes on the future and safe flights Steve! Big hug!

Steve, as a non pilot I have enjoyed every flight we have flown with you and N851TB. Glad to hear that your new employers will allow you to take us along. Can’t wait to see what you’re going to be piloting and for us to learn a new call sign. Hopefully, it will start with an N 👍🇺🇸

Good luck, Steveo! I know change can be difficult and scary but you sound excited about the possibilities of your new adventure. I’m looking forward to watching you show us all the new stuff. Take care, sir. I’ll be watching you from Kansas City!!

Rooting for you, Steve! I know I’m not alone when I say that you’ve inspired many to pursue a career in aviation. You’ve got this! Can’t wait to see what’s next for you!
