What an awesome machine, when I did my endorsement in it way before you where born took it out fly it around with instructor half fuel trying to stall it power off was hard work, it just mushed, power on stall a different matter! Then back to the flying club to load on 4 bod's for a load check, all kid students crammed in the back, 10 flaps hold on brakes, go, all going good wheels up and I started to trim nose nose down and reached for the flap lever and instructor said hold 71 kts, the look on those kids faces as this thing was just heading skyward was just priceless. Coming into to land I started setting up flaps, instructor calls flaps failure, so flapless landing, I won the lottery that day, planted it on the numbers with 6 POB like oil on glass, not in one million years could I ever do that again, needless to say I got a stamp in the log book that I was good to go. Will never forget that day and what it was like to fly a Real Plane, cheers and enjoy

I fly a T210M, I've seen people say it handels like a truck but it's actually a really nice plane to fly.

Wow, this was so much fun. I used to work for a guy who was a pilot--we did the workers' compensation insurance for several ski areas, and the best way to keep in touch, and for them to meet the dumb shit (me) they spoke to on the phone all the time, was to fly to them. He had a twin engine Cessna and I sat in the right seat. OK, one time going over to Mono lake, crossing over the Sierras was a bit spooky, but in general it was great. Seeing this video with many shots from that perspective brought back lots of good memories. Thank you very much.

Livermore!! I was just there for the first time this last weekend. Took my daughter to watch flights.

Very enjoyable video, thanks for sharing.

Very cool! Need to do some GA from time to time. Airbus has made me lazy lol.

*Highway to The Brodie Zone*🎶🎷🎵

What program are you using for the editing? Awesome flying also.

Freaking me out a little- the first T210 I ever flew (and flew a lot) was "17A" (what are the odds!), out of Palo Alto. The entire was 5517A, I don't think its around any longer.

Excellent video! I'm training IFR in my simulator Centurion. Even as a sim, it's a great aircraft. Curious, what kneeboard are you using? I only have the basic aluminum tablet type. Is yours pretty comfortable? Thanks again for the vid. I particularly enjoyed how you went through your checks etc.

What do you have attached to your yoke? Thanks

Enjoyed every bit of it. Love the 210. That last pattern though. Why so large? We used to routinely stuff ours into an 1,800 foot grass strip. You got flaps down on a two mile left base, adding more drag, requiring more power, at an altitude that will put you into houses below, because you are pattern altitude and 2 miles. The purpose of a pattern, is to inspect, and monitor the airport environment, before being committed on short final. I live in a heavily wooded area. If I cannot make the field, I will likely perish, and cause a forest fire at the same time!

It would be a bit more informative if you'd show the instruments, comment on how you coordinate the flaps and speeds, manifold pressure and propeller speed for the landing and then provide a view out the front window to show how you are landing the plane. I've heard that the 210 is front heavy, if you're doing anything special to keep the nose up on the landing then it would be nice to have you comment on that as you do the landing.

Why are you pumping the throttle . Fuel injected engines not Carby

"Bogeys, six o'clock low. Break right!"

And I thought you only covered the SJ Sharks

Speedbrakes .... I lol’d just a little bit. But, it’s a good callout to stay uniform between aircraft.

relocate the capacitor from the firewall to the altentor

15:05 Interesting,, about to flare, landing 20 and tower says "Bonanza 33 Mike cross runway 20?" editing? out of sequence voice over?

Any plans of doing player interviews while flying?

How does Cessna build this plane without wing struts?

Brody, a lovely video. Just a query from one 210/206/BE58 pilot to another... that throttle pumping to get her started, is that normal in this particular airframe? On the 520/550 series I have never had to pump a throttle to get a start from cold, warm or genuinely roasting hot back in Africa. I would perhaps run that past your Maintenance folks and get it checked out at 50 Hour- doesn’t seem right to me. Could be that the Aux pump is on its way out, and replacing it now if it’s no working properly could very possibly prevent a major ball ache if it does break on you away from base on a Sunday when you’re not expecting it. Cheers

Because that lead is picking up emi

Just finding out you are a pilot/CFI Brodie! I am a Private Pilot based out of KDVO myself. Do you fly often? Do you still instruct?

Love the 210 I have 1500 hours in it

Jeez, glad you're not having to rely on guy in the other seat to do anything 🙄

Nice airplane but it sounds like a teapot.

I dont know how you can fly with that awful alternator whine... You may have a bad diode on the rectifier.

Arsenal FC FTW!
