Hi my name is TJ and this is my KZread channel. I’m a US commercial pilot (with instrument rating).
I am NOT a flight instructor(yet - maybe someday) ... But I love sharing the joy of general aviation flight from my Cirrus. So this channel has a few distinct playlists as follows:
1. Scenic Flying Destinations: If you just want to see some cool views from the cockpit, this playlist is for you
2. Weather Flying Videos: If you want to see real cockpit action while in IMC weather conditions, check out this playlist.
3. Pilot Experience Videos: This playlist is a collection of cool stuff I did or learned in the cockpit.
4. Aviation Bucket List: This playlist chronicles some of the flights on my personal aviation bucket list.

What glasses are you wearing with flashlight or something?
Learn something new every day, good share
Incredible. That was awesome. I think I would have gone. Missed on that last attempt also. Do you have FIKI ? what was the outside air temperature? Were you concerned about the risk of icing?
Thanks … yes … my plane is FIKI and I had the TKS fluid flowing on high … sorry don’t remember the temps
I came in from the NE and got a 5 point right base 24, changed to 30 and thought 30 was a taxiway on the Jepp plate (paper). It was a runway of course but boy it looked sketchy. Parked in the grass and had an awesome day.
Often tough to get in … but fun destination when u get on ground ;-)
I have question; how You synchronize sound from Sony recorder with all cameras?
I use the multi cam editing features of Final Cut Pro to synchronize the audio… that is a topic I may cover in a future video
@@TJFlyingAdventures Thank You for answer.
Just got the IFR rating a couple weeks ago, this video is great because of the radio work and simplified explanations you are showing your passenger. Very nice!! Thanks for sharing.
Glad it helped!
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing. This is amazing tool.
Great insights on this software. I will try this soon. Thank you for sharing.
Glad it was as helpful … This SW has changed my approach to analyzing fights!
You make it look so easy, Tj~ I know it’s not!!
I am just in awe of how awesome this amazing software and integration with avionics is to get a very nice debrief that keeps proficiencies up for us pilots. Great Learning Tool!!
Yea me 2 … but it is humbling to debrief a landing that u thought was “fine” and realize that it was really not great ;-)
❤❤❤❤❤
I need Flight Instructor like him
I love this video. Understood the process in one video.
Thx … glad u enjoyed it !
❤❤❤❤
Very cool! Loved the fact that you got to fly with Patty!! Watching the video made me want to get back to flying aerobatics regularly :-)!
How you control camera installed outside of the plane? When I have some nice view to record suddenly camera (gopro11) turn off...
The outside camera is GoPro Max, which is a 360 camera that u can control from an app on your phone
@@TJFlyingAdventures OK, before you take off you turn on camera, I need to fly 50min to the place that I want to record. Does the camera is still on?
@@bestb51 The battery will likely not last that long. What I do in that situation, is start the camera on the ground. After I am established in cruise (~ 15 mins into the flight), then I use the GoPro Quik app to power off the wingcam and use the same app to turn it back on near landing. This seems to work ~90% of the time. Sometimes you might have to restart the app a couple of times to make the bluetooth/wifi connection work. Good luck!
@@TJFlyingAdventures thanks for the tip!
I loved my time up there with them too. Such an amazing experience. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
That was crazy and awesome all at the same time! Parachute, come on now! Didn't realize you are such a thrill seeker 😮 ❤
This was a wild experience and I can't wait to do more of this :-)
Sounds like a ton of fun! Just remember to not to eat anything before the flight! 😅
lol … luckily I never got motion sickness… but I hear some others have 😎
That was amazing!!!!🎉
Way to go...
Just awesome, unusual attitude recovery is the second best takeaway and best one would be holding your breakfast in the right side is tops in my book. Nice to at least watch you go through the paces from my couch. :>))
Thanks... Even though I will never roll the Cirrus, the upset recovery part of the training was really beneficial!
Those Super Decathlons look supreme ❤
Ohh.. they are .. In fact, their entire fleet was immaculate!
Amazing compilation! Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I like that glass panel cockpit. That's the b0mb. Still, I'd like to have a few mechanical traditional instruments as backup always on display that will keep working if you lose all power. Altitude, a compass, maybe an artificial horizon, coord turn indicator, air speed.
$300+k to fly in discomfort and marginal safety. After 50+ years of pro flying, looking back I wonder now how many first class tickets I missed.
Not sure I understand your point… If u feel flying commercial is preferable to general aviation, that is your choice… I personally prefer flying via Cirrus … BTW, this plane is ~ $1.35M fully equipped :-)
This is all fantastic info!! I just loaded my first flight I took with Garmin Pilot, it recorded all of the air/engine data. Its a lot to digest!
Glad it was helpful … takes some time to digest and understand all the data … I may make a part 2 video explaining animations, engine data flags etc
Awesome video! Looked like a gnarly headwind on takeoff with that 30kias on lineup!
Yes it sure was :-)
Another awesome video, TJ. Thank you for taking us along the new G7. I'm going to buy some Lotto tickets this week!! LOL
Thanks! … The G7 is not cheap … but it is an elegant design :-)
Nice job, TJ! Now that FlySto has support for AFS logs, I have started using it. Your video pointed a couple of things that I hadn't yet seen so it was quite helpful! I don't think FlySto is picking up on the more advanced maneuvers like Lazy 8's and Chandelles but hopefully that should happen soon. I found that CloudAhoy did a pretty good job of that but unlike FlySto (which allows me to upload the AFS file natively), CloudAhoy required that I put it into a specific CSV format (which wasn't too complicated but it takes about 10-15 min per flight). Of course, it helps that FlySto is free so far. I had issues uploading my video to FlySto. I'll ping you separately.
No audio rignt?
Correct ... FlySto does not capture audio... But I actually do record the audio separately.. So could have easily added it :-)
Great video! Excited to start using FlySto.
Great tool and great explanation! Thank you!
Thx … there so much in this tool that I might make a part 2 video covering engine data, highlights and insights
Just seeing your uploaded video today, As an IT guy, just love it. Just Awesome, what a product WOW!!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it … it’s like my new favorite toy
Love the music choice!
Thx … that is always the hardest part of editing for me :-)
jUST AWESOME!!!
Glad you like it!
The concept of evading weather using non-realtime radar data (maybe up to 40 minutes old) is what can get pilots killed. It is not unheard of. Please be careful next time my friend, and clear skies 😀
I do try to be as careful as I can … thanks for watching!
Very interesting.
Glad you think so … I try to interesting real life situations
Great video!
Thx 🙏
That was awesome, Tj!!! Was nice to see a peek of blue sky!!!❤
Legend has it that John Glenn claimed on his first orbital flight that he only needed another 1000 ft to get on top.
Never heard that before … but after this flight I can understand why ;-)
That's scary that he came so close to your plane! Who took the video?
A friend who dropped me off at the airport saw the helicopter and stopped to take the video
Cool video. Step light and Hydraulic baggage door spring were new with G6!
Thanks for the info! … my G6 didn’t have that
Watch this video and the Missing man video. It was great to meet you at Saline county Airport.
Great to meet u 2 … what a small world that we ran into each other in KSUZ !
That’s not right~ thank god he saw you on time!!!
I will share of my videos about these helicopters.
We often see this type of USCG Dauphin's based out of KMTC, which is ANGB.
Yes I can.
Great meeting u today!
Thank you for taking time out of your day to speak with me. I appreciate all the information. Have a great flight!
Nice Vid. Have one on order. What is your color? Txs
Mine color is called Athens Blue … even compared to the newer colors available, I still like this one the best 😃
