N32BE same here

We are certainly lucky to have that destination available to us. The way it was explained to me was that expansion gaps in between sections of the runway are what cause the bumpiness. Not knowing anything about construction, I'm just curious why a brand new runway isn't smoother. The approach/departure is definitely a fun one. I feel the need....the need for speeeeeed.

It's definitely a bucket list airport. However, I must say there any many airports I prefer more. California has tons of 'em.

Glad you enjoyed the video! It's a fun airport to fly into. Not my favorite.....but you can't beat the cool approach.

Thx for watching David! Ha...yeah can't go wrong with an eagle on your shirt.

just take the Catalina Express ferry to Avalon. They've had a jazz festival for 30+yrs. there and the feel is similar to a charming Italian coastal port. Interesting history too.

Thanks Alan. There are so many stories to learn about places we can visit in these little planes. That to me, is just as fascinating as the flying itself.

Sorry for the late reply. That's awesome! I love that my videos can inspire others to be interested in aviation.

Glad you liked it B-man! I kinda glossed over the SFRA a little but I'm glad it helped out.

Yeah those bison can be mean too. Thx again for the comment!

Glad you liked it!

That sunset was awesome. I screwed up when filming and only got the last milli-second before the sun disappeared.

Some of my most impressive sunset experiences have been witnessed in that plane. I'm glad I was able to share that one.

glad you're enjoying the content!

Thx Tony!!!

sorry for the late reply Brett. Glad you liked the video. Go for it! It's very rewarding on many levels.

Awesome. Lots of great places to visit including many not in this video.

I hear the same concern about the LAX SFRA from others. I’ve personally never had any encounters that felt uneasy. ADSB certainly plays a big role in situational awareness there, as well as all over SoCal. That said, I should do the Hollywood route when going that direction one of these days just to change it up :)

@@Wolficorntv Yeah good point. That was so long ago that we didn’t have ASDB yet

thx TJ!

Glad you liked the video Mike!

I fly over Newhall ALL the time so keep an eye out for me! ha. Yes, I know Juan. He's got a great channel. Thx for watching!

Stuart Smith awesome! If you like Kern, you definitely wanna see my next video :)

Wolficorn can’t wait!

If you look at the LA TAC supplemental, they do list a few VFR reporting points. In my experience, most people report Ballona Creek (small river north of LAX), the north runway and the south runway.

French Valley is a great little airport! Been multiple times. Looks like it's 4.25 there now. Santa Paula is 3.59. Did you see my video about the cheapest gas ever? Now THAT was some cheap gas! LOL

@@Wolficorntv That's at the jet center. Self serve (south side of the ramp) is $3.79 currently. Lowest I saw at F70 was $2.79... Isn't there a good paint center at Santa Paula? I need to get up there one day :

Thx Mark. Yeah...I usually do that but wanted to get a good runway shot for this trip. That said, I should look into getting an xtra camera for the interior. Thx for the feedback!

Wolficorn it’s ok mate the vid was still great. I’m trying to look for a Grumman but I’m in the UK 🇬🇧 so they are not very common here. Thx for the reply. Greetings from across the pond in England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Good luck with your search. I'd love to do some flying over there. I went to university in Canterbury for a year. It's a special place.

Wolficorn yeah Canterbury is a nice place. Nice pubs 👍. Yeah over here we can’t get Grumman’s or any aircraft for that matter as cheap as you guys can. Yeah flying over here is a bit different. U don’t have as much Freedom as u have in the US. You Must file a Flight plan if you want to go anywhere far from your local airfield. Best to check up on procedures before u do. Most of our airspace is controlled or military. If u can think it’s a thin long country n you basically are in bravo at least always. Also almost every airfield you land at will be charged. U even need permanent over here to start up from the tower. U can’t just start n ask to Taxi. If the controllers know u r unfamiliar they are helpful though and understand that u r used to different things. Yes the flying over here is great with the scenery, it’s beautiful, the reason why I fly. I learned in the army when I asked to transfer for rotary to the army air corps. They only use rotary but the first thing u do is get in aChipmunk n do 30 hours n get your basic license n if u pass u go on to learn in Gazelle helicopters were great n then my final was the Lynx. The fastest helicopter in the world 🌍 👍. Stay safe n happy flying mate.

@@marcs990 Mark, is it true that all ATC in the UK is run by private companies, and no "FAA" ATC? My observation from other KZfaqrs flying there is "No Way I Want That Here."

Thx man. In my research, they actually ended up cutting scenes with the bison from the film. I guess their performance wasn't believable enough. For audio I use a Zoom h5 digital audio recorder. Maybe slight overkill for airplane YT videos, but I use it for other applications too. It's great. I'm still looking for a way to simplify the recording process. As I'm sure you know, balancing operation of the cameras and audio can get a PITA.

@@Wolficorntv I have started using the inflight cable for gopro audio. IT works but I have had it screw up and not capture audio. Your audio is pretty dang clear.

$175. I just don’t go there enough to justify that.

Hey! Good to hear from you again. Thx and yes, I work in that world :)

@@Wolficorntv It shows. Maybe you should consider doing an EAA webinar on Aviation video production, like Martin Pauly is doing about filming.

For a video? Beautiful area, that's for sure.

Ha, not quite. I drilled them in as a guide for my main tires when pushing back into the hangar to prevent hangar rash. There's only a few xtra inches in the back part of the hangar between the stabilizer and the wall. The castoring nose wheel can get a little tricky on the towbar. I also put pool noodles on the stabilizers as padding just in case. It's worked out really well. No issues yet (knock on wood)

@@Wolficorntv Well what a great idea. Keep the videos coming. I am a big Grumman fan and enjoy watching your Tiger adventures.

yup

Thx for watching and for the feedback. Most people like the music in my videos and then there’s always some that don’t. I can’t please everybody all the time. That said...I greatly appreciate your input and glad the video brought back memories for you.

I know. I know. I'm a couple months out of currency at this point. The longest I've been, I think. When is your Tiger gonna be ready? THAT deserves a video.

@@Wolficorntv Spoke to Gary yesterday. I've got a trip to Sacramento in 2 months and he's hopeful that it will be ready then.

@@N1120A wow that's a long time. You'll have to suffer thru it with your all-glass Bo in the meantime.
