New Kid on the Block: Passage to Pretoria - a Diamond Aircraft DA62 Ferry to South Africa / Ep. 1
Ғылым және технология
Episode 1 takes us from Wiener Neustadt, Austria, to Paphos, Cyprus. Micke shows Luis the ferry-flight ropes and advises us what to pack, snack, and what not to open in a DA62 cabin at 11,000 feet. We see the features of OE-FGZ’s iridium antenna in action, and Luis hand flies into LCPH.

Flying in Africa is fantastic, something everyone should experience
Baie mooi, love it!
I think you two are going to have a lot of fun! 😊
Would love to own this aircraft one day! Literally on my bucket list to fly one of these. Trained on the DV20 out of CTFTC in Cape Town, and just got my CPL/IR/ME on a Seneca II . Doing my FI stuff now. Hopefully see this baby one day in the future :)
Mega! Looks like great fun.

wonderful vlog !!! i like alsio non flight operations, i.e going to supermarket for snacks!!!
What a great video, hopfully the first of many to come. Micke and Luis certainly work well as a team with a great rapor that makes for thorougly entertaining viewing. This channel has created some of the best general aviation content on youtube, as well as being a great advertisment for Diamond Aircraft and the DA62.

A video overview of what went into the flight planning and permits for overflights would be a great dimension to add on the series.

To keep things short, all permissions were done by “GASE” “General Aviation Support Egypt” . Basically we sent them the routing and then they did their magic😊
Love this - living the dream !
My dream job, I'll definitively apply once my ATPL is completed. Thank u for sharing guys !
Nice! 👏👏👏
Micke, only way to tell you apart from Lewis is the shape of the sunglasses! ;) Safe Journey.
The fish part killed me 😂😂😂😂
I thought you both were wearing fake mustache by looking at the thumbnail, that is why I clicked lol. Although I'm a huge fan of Diamond, and especially of DA-42 and DA-62.
Always great to get the inflight info. 👍 Looking forward to the next leg of your journey. 😎 From a hot sunny South Africa 🌞
You guys are absolutely crazy
Thanks for this great video. Well done! Nice pictures, very good quality and views. Looking forward for the next part.

Awesome job Team. I sure hope you aren’t leaving the Diamond Team. Seems like only yesterday you were the student crossing the Atlantic in a 42.

Great video as usual! Micke, how come you switch PITOT & (Stall Heat?) off when on the cruise? We always keep it on from runway to runway in the UK, and that's how I was taught.

Hi mate, because we had no visible moisture and mostly plus degrees so we decided to keep it off then. Thanks😊
When were you at Kilimanjaro? I was there end of August start of a two week safari in Tanzania. Included some flights in a Caravan.

Stink fish in the Diamond NO NO NO! , I once was offered some of that in Iceland took one Sniff and had to take a large gulp of my Gull Beer.
Question, what plan do you have in foreflight that you were able to use it to navigate across different continent?

As they say, you can take the boy out of Iceland, but you can't take Iceland out of the boy.
Did your route include any of the parts of africa affected by ATC spoofing?
