Fantastic ✈️ Glad to see you back in the 24. You are one of the most professional private pilots on KZread. Thank you for your videos sir.

Great video as always. FO seems great lol, would be nice to see him more on the channel.

21:35 looked like you questioned yourself whether you were keyed when ATC responded 'no I don't think so.' Perfect timing.

Great to see these PC 24 videos again. Keep them coming and keep instructing us on the avionics and everything else about the best business jet in its class. It’s fascinating!🛩️👍🏻

Single pilot!!! No, hassle.... just love it!👍👍

That was quite interesting. Thanks for taking us on the ride.dang those bumps on approach looked legit moderate-severe. I really enjoyed the cockpit tour w explanations. De-ice mode was sick. Dude you have serious skills.

That's so awesome to see you in Reno! Just under a month ago I passed my PPL checkride on that very pavement you did your intro on. Maybe someday I'll see you around in the future! Love the content, always a pleasure to watch!

Wow 202 knots at 5 to 6000 ft per minute. That’s gotta feel great. I used to love flying with my dad. He enjoyed having a little fun every once in a while. My fastest kick in the seat of the pants was in a Baron twin turbo prop. You could really feel yourself being pressed back into the seat and what a thrill of a ride. I enjoy watching your videos. They remind me of my dad.

What a plane, climbs like an F15. What a great invention that synthetic vision is. **Thank you for not using any music** This is a big deal as I see so many other videos with this content ruined with music. Nice to hear the background noises. Amazing content totally subbed!! Can I ask a question - this plane is designed for use on rough fields. With that in mind why not go for high wing design? The low set wing is so close to ground and more prone to damage from gravel/stones/mud? Sorry if its stupid question!

@PlaneJunkies

Жыл бұрын

high wing jets are not common

@LBCORP1960

Жыл бұрын

Not a stupid question. You can attach a deflector just behind the nose gear to stop debris from hitting the bottom of the fuselage on an unpaved runway. The main gear are set far enough back that the wings are not effected by debris.

When you do a battery start…are you able to do a generator assisted start on the second engine or do both have to start from the battery? Thanks!

@Mark-pp7jy

Жыл бұрын

If you're asking about the types of fluid used, de-icing is Type 1, heated to roughly 180 degrees and used to remove all contaminants. Type 4 is used when precipitation is falling and aids in shedding that precip during taxi and takeoff.

@rizzodefrank

Жыл бұрын

Anti ice is like electrically heated prop blades or a heated windshield. It can also be a heated wing from bleed air. De ice can be pneumatic boots on wings.

I hope you guys are not fully vaccinated and boosted,I heard a lot of pilots are having mild symptoms of heart attack while flying, specially being in a thin air environment.
