I MADE IT! Flight Across the Atlantic Westbound is Complete | Episode 8
On this episode, bad weather, a stressful approach, thunderstorms, strong headwinds, and turbulence. We fly from Schefferville to Sept-Iles to spend the night, followed by the dash to the finish line in Greenbank, Ontario with a stop at La Tuque.
In this video series I hope to offer a glimpse into the challenges of preparing and actually flying across the Atlantic ocean, navigating over the remote northern landscapes and vast stretches of water, and experiencing breathtaking views that only a small plane can offer. Join me as I share insights into the planning and execution of this flight, including the joys and challenges faced along the way. Whether you're a seasoned pilot, an aviation enthusiast, or someone who dreams of adventure, this video series offers something for everyone. I hope you enjoy this journey as much as I did.

Thank you so much for filming, editing, and posting your adventure. I’m a ppl in San Diego and have been dreaming about crossing the pond in a SR-22 for years now. Your videos are truly inspirational, so thank you, and safe travels.
Greate videos. Thanks for sharing.
Just found your videos today, `binged,` watched them all! You really have the balance right of information about flying and the places you visit. Excellent job.
Intense last leg, I wish you smooth tail winds.

Thanks Mike!
Woo! Another video! I finally got my cardinal back in the air after a 2 month maintenance/upgrade.
If memory serves me right, last year Oshkosh got a couple of lines of heavy thunderstorms on Wednesday. Flying was hot, turbulent, and with lots of deviations that day.

The bike is a Curtis folding bike. 20 inch wheel. Pretty generic, I think they sell similar ones under different brands. Inexpensive but reliable.
How do you find the lateral visibility in the cardinal? Seems like the A pillar is right there in your face and would obstruct your view at 10 o’clock. Also, how do you find the smoothness of the IO360 as I’ve heard it’s not as smooth as other engines. I’ve been contemplating a cardinal, RG with a tornado alley turbo normalizer.

I really can't complain about the visibility from the cardinal, that's one of its benefits, at least having no struts is one of the main reasons I chose it. For the smoothness, yes, I can't say it's the smoothest, but really not a factor. I think a lot depends on if your prop is well balanced
Your video is a testament to your dedication. The quality and effort are truly commendable!
