Join me and fellow aviation KZfaqr @CitationMax for a private jet flying experience! In this video, we take you on a journey from Yakima, Washington to Santa Fe, New Mexico, offering a cockpit view and pilot perspective throughout the flight.
The Citation CJ3+ private jet offers top-of-the-line features, and we take full advantage of the flight deck as we navigate the skies during both daytime and night flying conditions. You'll also get a front-row seat to our instrument approach into Santa Fe, where we safely land in some gusty wind conditions.
Don't miss out on the chance to see what flying a private jet is really like from a pilot's perspective. Subscribe to my channel and to @CitationMax's channel for more incredible aviation content, and let us know in the comments what you thought of our flight!
Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE to be notified of new videos every other Thursday!

Thank you so very much for providing such beautiful and interesting videos. As a former pilot, who loved to fly I appreciate flying along with you on my Computer. Unfortunately, there are hundreds of us, who are no longer able to fly because of endless encounters with hospitals, Doctors, and old age. I look forward to your videos to lift my spirits. Thank you so much for allowing me the opportunity to once again soar.

My instrument check pilot was 86 years old! She flew for the CIA, and was tuff as nails. My chief pilot made a funny face when he heard who I got as my check ride. I was terrified 😂. But I always loved knowing we can sometimes keep going to that age!!!!!

@rob3910 Жыл бұрын

And to add, she made me fly 3 more approaches than our planned flight plan. I flew the first few perfectly and she wanted to make sure I wasn’t to “cocky” lol. She’s a legend in my mind!

Ever since I started watching CitationMax and your videos, I have fallen in love with the Citation Longitude and I purchased from Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 Premium for that Longitude. Its close enough to the same cockpit as the CJ3. I also bought the Cirrus Vision SF50 as well. The reason why because of the MFD touchscreen and the Garmin G5000 screen that you have shown me. So much I have missed on using it I found some tutorials on how to use the Garmin G5000. Thank you both so much for uploading your flights on youtube. Its really fun to watch! I only flown once from West Palm Beach, Fl to Atlanta, Ga when I came to see my dad back in Spring Break 96' before we moved to ga in May 96. I haven't been back on flight simulator since I've played FS98. Now that I have MSFS2020? I will enjoy flying my favorite aircraft thanks to you both. 😊

Thanks! That was a great collaboration! Not only with the piloting duties, but the video duties! I watched all of the legs. You guys should have a Discovery Channel series. I know it takes a lot of time to edit and produce these videos. I appreciate you, Max, (and Stevo1Kinevo too) for taking us along vicariously. The content, videography, and especially the professionalism you convey as pilots are awesome and fun to watch.

10:42 The volcanos you were talking about in previous video Mt. Adams (left) & Mt. Rainier (right). From that area you would have seen Mt. Hood further south of Adams and Mt. St. Helens behind Adams to the west. Flying up from California it is possible to see from Mt. Shasta to Mt. Baker which are the furthest south and north of the major volcanic peaks in the continental USA.

Great video. Do you have a preference between high wing and low wing aircraft?

@Schmiiindy Жыл бұрын

Thank you! Honestly not really. I think low wings have smoother landings but high wings are great shade and visibility. Pros to each I suppose!

@Boodieman72 Жыл бұрын

@@Schmiiindy It seems there are very few high wing aircraft in comparison to low wing aircraft yet most flight schools use high wing aircraft. Not being a pilot I just wondered why it's this way.

@Schmiiindy Жыл бұрын

A lot of private pilot training is ground based navigation & maneuvers (seeing things on the ground to use as landmarks). Can be done in low wings but that shields a lot of visibility. Much easier to do those in a high wing! 😅

@Boodieman72 Жыл бұрын

@@Schmiiindy I was wondering if Cessna gave discounts to flight schools as most of them seem to use Cessna aircraft and Cessna ground school programs. Maybe there just weren't may other high wing options at that time, for new aircraft.

@bobrewer202 Жыл бұрын

Love your videos and everything you and Max do. But I have a quart ion: When and why did you start pronouncing words without the T? You never did it before, I have gone back to older videos to see if I was wrong. You definitely did not pronounce this way before. Examples: “Mountain” is now pronounced “Mou’ehn”. “Button” is now “Bu’ehn”. What am I missing?
