I liked the "Seat belts on!" command. I imagine flying a bunch of friends down to the islands in a jet is difficult. They all think it's fun and games when they board and establishing this is serious business is important.

This is one of those episodes where I keep thinking Steve has the coolest job.

When I was in ppl training my habit of calling for wind check was quickly broken when my boss who was my final CFI stopped it. He was an old bush pilot from Alaska. He said and I quote, "what difference does it make? Fly the damn airplane not the wind. The airplane will tell you what it needs. Just fly the airplane." He was right. It doesn't matter what the wind is at the tower or wherever the instrument is, just fly the airplane. Rule number 1 in piloting. Fly the airplane. It saved my life when I had a complete engine failure on downwind departure upon throttling back from takeoff power. His training got what was a student back on the ground safely, no damage.

I've been a long time flight chops fanatic. Its good to see continuous content! Youre adventures throughout the aviation world are what keeps me on my goal of becoming a pilot! Look forward to seeing more!

One heck of a plane! Congratulations Osama! Perhaps more astounding is the work you have completed this year! I have no idea how you stay ahead of an aircraft like the Phenom 300!!?? Skills way (WAY!) out of my league! Well done!

I like how you're getting into jets, but even small jets like the Phenom. I know you prefer the more vintage props and things like that but it's nice that you have both aspects of the uber-modern with digital displays and troubleshooting issues with computers, and other videos are the old nitty-gritty, hands-on-engine-parts. I hope you get to made more videos with this guy and the plane. Fascinating stuff and I like your background info.

The Phenom 300 is my favorite small business or personal use jet.

Holy crap! Flight level 450!!!

Good to see a followup to the first video where we first met the Phenom and Osama. He must have flown that aircraft a few times since in order to fly it single pilot. Wow, being a driver on a hot ride.

Nice video, love being told to expedite exiting on a very specific taxi way when you're unfamiliar with the airport! Always has you scrambling to get that taxi chart up!

him speaking about the type rating was seriously eye opening. that bit alone was GOLD. the rest of the video was just extra goodness

I spent about 6 years flying Learjets (25's and 35's), and made many trips to the Bahamas. The Lear 25 was most comfortable at FL410, FL430, and FL450. I am retired now, and wish I had the cashflow to fly something like this. I really envy you! Really enjoyed your video. Thanks!

That was absolutely incredible.. What an amazing pilot Osama is! I have a whole new respect for jet pilots. The quick radio talk is beyond impressive. Sick copilot skills too FC! This was A+ content. +1 :)

This video and the sequel are probably two of the best showing the Garmin, not to mention Osama’s very detailed and patient explanations. You are very lucky to have him as a mentor. Patrick Albuquerque

Such a beautiful plane and the pilot/owner is a really nice guy too. I'm amazed how the plane can be flown single pilot, looks like everything can be called up through the displays.

The man is professional. awesome work Sir. I m taking notes roo.

Absolutely wonderful. I fly out of Pearson with one of "the carriers" and this is really refreshing to see a different point of view. Osama is doing what most airline pilots wish they could - flying for leisure. Outside the airline world he is tops. Interesting to see how the Phenom is geared towards single pilot operation but it really would be a lot safer with two pilots, one flying and the other handling all the pnf duties - radios, checklists, programming etc. Awesome!

@osamaarafat

Of course it's safer with two pilots. That's why Flightchops was in the right seat. While not rated, he did run the checklists for me and followed along the flight to make sure I didn't make any mistakes. I always try to have a pilot in the right seat even if he/she is not rated on the aircraft.

Man i love your buddy Osama.. so cool to see someone so passionate about flight and motivated in his job

Out-frikken-standing! So much respect for Osama's abilities and professionalism. Another great "short-series" Steve. Keep up the great work Bud.

You and Osama work well together as passionate aviators.

I love flying with Osama.. he explains what I need to learn... great video also.. romeo bravo charlie out

A very engaging episode Steve (and Osama). I felt my own adrenaline surging as your workload and tempo picked-up during departure/arrival. And that ATC in the Bahamas!

First off....congrats Osama on your ratings. Have been following back on your channel for a while. Hope to see more vids in the future. I started flying with my Dad at the age of 8. At 17 did my PPL in one of our 4 planes Dad owned over the years. It was done in the Aeronca Champ. Aviation is a passion that never ends!

Wow, this is what I dream about, it's general aviation in its truest form. Sharing your passion with pilots and non-pilots alike. Think of how much GA has improved this gentleman's life and those around him. Well done, keep up the good work and fly safe.

I watch this video every few months and everytime I do its like i'm watching it for the first time. Its that good.

I've felt the Phenom 300 is interesting because of all of its advanced features and now it has even more appeal given Osama's enthusiatic endorsement. Great vid.

I was very interested to see Osama as PIC on his new Phenom 300. What an outstanding individual and gentleman! He takes flying to another level. It feels like I am watching a Commercial Airline Pilot when I see him flying. I guess the TBM850 is gone but I love his replacement! Hope everyone had a great time in the Bahamas!

I admire Osama's dedication and professionalism. That's a serious aircraft and he knows it. I would be comfortable as one of his passengers. Thanks for sharing a great video!

Really liked the ride, more Phenom IFR please. Missed you at Reno, but was only there for one day. I worked for Sanders for 5 years.

Impressive progression into a jet. Osama is the consummate professional up there. Thanks for sharing.

Excellent editing. Love how you put the Approach view out the fwd window on the top half and the instrument panel in the lower half of the screen. I would love to see more of the instrument panel than what's in the video. It's great as it stands. Keep up the great work. Fully enjoyed the whole video.

@bazzie85

5 жыл бұрын

@@stenny1970 indicated airspeed is the measured airspeed, but as you increase your altitude the air pressure is decreased, that results in a lower indicated airspeed, even though your speed over the ground might still be the same. The true airspeed is basically corrected for altitude, air density and temperature. Both figures are necessary. The indicated airspeed will allow you to know if you are close to your stall speed, etc. And true airspeed is good for navigational purposes.

@osamaarafat

The air is really thin up there so the indicated airspeed sensed by the pitot tube is not your true airspeed. The Air Data Computer calculates the True Air Speed based on the altitude and temperature.

I know the only way to do it, is to just do it... and every time I see your videos, it inspires me to stop procrastinating (something I am actually NOT known for). Thank you for sharing your experiences with FlightChops! 👍🏻

I really liked your editing between preparing for takeoff and cutting back the the preflight briefing. Really illustrated the importance of the prep as part of the flight.

This was again an awesome video, and Osama is such an inspiration for all of us with his dedication and professionalism! Now only a PPL, but definitely want to get to his level one day. Cheers

Love the videos with Osama. He’s a true professional.

Phenom 300 really is an awesome aircraft. Hope to fly it one day.

I do like the registration. Makes it easy to remember! My cousins is C-FKTR. That one is easy to remember also, for some reason.

It's interesting the changes when you get in different parts of the world. ATC in Toronto was right on top of everything compared to Nassau ATC just basically saying "well boys land anywhere" lol

This is how KZread channel should be...... you live the experience like you’re their ..... great work guys

Awesome, awesome video. I never got to fly a jet durn my flying days and no where near 45,000 feet. But spent a lot of time in busy traffic and fast pace ATC in the NYC area. Really enjoyed the video. It took me back in time to a fun period in my life.

You’ve got me hooked.. Osama is an awesome pilot! Love the technology.. I just retired from DoD aircraft maintenance APG.

Been watching your videos for a couple months now. Never thought I'd begin to understand the comm traffic in these videos. Understood almost everything that was being said over the radio in this video.

Wow, Osama is the man. A very accomplished pro. He makes it look easy. Also, what an one amazing aircraft...4000 ft/min!

Awesome! Osama is some guy, doing all that work to fly the Phenom! Great video as always Steve!

Phenomenal flight!

YES! Another Osama video. That guy is a champ

One of the better flying videos I’ve seen in a long time, keep up the great work

Thanks to both of you and THIS is the big league :-) I was feeling the excitement just watching the video!

Those guys in the islands are pretty chill, they don't really care what you do 😂 Almost none of them have radar, and there's at least a few places down there where it's just a single guy in a hammock with a hand-held. And of course can always take the visual and still fly the RNAV anyway 😉

Wow what a fabulous video! Just watched it down here in Middle Earth. Osama is superb. I've seen him on a couple of videos and he is so knowledgeable! And an absolutely lovely fellow so willing to pass it on.

Two thing I noted: 1. 45,000ft is 5000ft from needing a pressure/space suit 2. you timed the music to beat the drums the moment the rubber chirped the runway. Very nice.

I'd fly Osama airlines, he's a highly competent pilot and aircraft commander. However I doubt I'm in the correct financial stratum. Good to see the "jet-set" stuff but I particularly enjoy the VFR/IFR or bush flying on this channel. In any event, it's all really well done and presented.

Very impressed. The editing was excellent. I loved how you matcheed the briefing with the flight

That looked super smooth running through those clouds! Osama seems really cool too!

Great video as always Steve. The part about the 15deg pitch made me giggle- on the Q400 your pitch is close to 20deg on takeoff, the thing is severely overpowered, however I have to sit in the soup at FL250. The Phenom looks like an awesome plane though.
