Oh my gosh, the controller with the "HAVE A BEAUUUUUTIFUL WEEK" is awesome. I've heard her many times. What a small world.

You speak at a nice pace, easier to understand and follow, then other you tube pilots. Thanks for your patience, and understanding, , Easier to see and hear what’s going on in the cockpit. Can’t wait for your next one. !

I just LUV your CJ4 videos.... you and CitationMax. You two are so great for my MSFS2020 CJ4 flying. If I could doing it all again as I am plus 70 years of age. I would be a CJ4 pilot.....

wow, you put that lady down like a feather

Real nice video. Loved the call outs and your situational awareness. Loved the detail. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to more of your videos. Cheers!

Lately I've been flying the CJ4 in Microsoft Flight Sim, so this was very cool to see a professional pilot take us through the details of an approach. Thanks for posting this!

Way back in the 90's I had a job as an engineer that requird me to fly into Midway several times a month. However, I never got to look at what the airport looked like on approach. Thank you for this view.

Awesome video Ryan! I am just a student pilot working on my PPL, but the calm, measured demeanor you have explaining such a complex task is amazing. You are clearly a pilot who works to master your craft and that’s why I’m a subscriber sir. Blue skies, maybe someday I can right seat for you…

Very well done sir. I'm learning from you and many others. We're very privileged to have this content on youtube.

Ryan, loved this full length arrival video. Great for IFR procedural understanding even for us piston IFR pilots. Please keep doing this type of content in addition to your other great mix of content. Thanks!

Wow,single pilot and still able to talk to your viewers and stay ahead of the aircraft, your ability to be so calm and your voice is perfect so calm and clear, so much to do on that approach, obviously not everyone including me could do that. New to your channel. The one female controller at beginning sounds like the wife of youtuber 310 pilot.

Love all your videos! You are so calm and explain everything that’s going on! 😊

Excellent video. Will be watching more.

Great video, Love it!

GREAT video. Thanks for sharing

Great video. Thanks for sharing.

Excellent! Thanks.

Outstanding job all around! 🫡🇺🇸

enjoyed the video. thank you Ryan!

I like your video. Great Job!

Awesome content!

Enjoyed the vid, Thank you

Yes loving the long flights thanks

Thank you for sharing great piloting skills Ryan all the best cheers

Having watched tons of almost all dual-pilot business jet videos, the biggest thing I noticed right off is how much head down time there is for a single pilot. I realize this is heavily edited but the amount of time spent inside was shocking. And extra bits done for sharing with the YT audience only added to it. Makes me squirm. I’ve seen accidents avoided because good CRM with a two-person crew meant someone always had their head outside.

awesome video. thanks. working on building my time. at 1100 hours now, hope to be in jet shortly.

Having recently started as a part time co-pilot on the cj2-4's, your videos are great to watch and learn from for procedures. Please keep it up. Super helpful...

Very nice. Thnx for sharing

Love your videos Ryan, and this one is Top as well. Just must be wonderful and such an experience to drive one of these fast jets! Thanks for taking us all along for the ride. Such a great tutorial as well! :) Thanks!

That was a great video! Thanks!

Yes, I enjoyed this, Ryan! Thanks for your contribution.👍🇨🇦

Love the video. Please keep them coming. Thanks.

Great one Ryan!

Well done. Thanks!!

Great stuff

Awesome, your so calm and cool. Very Professional Thanks for taking us with you.

This was excellent, just discovered you and will be watching all your upcoming content.

Well done Ryan!

LOVE this kind of video. Thanks!

Another beautiful landing well done sir

Awesome Ryan!

Very Nice

Awesome approach! Subscribing!

Love the format. So interesting as I'm only halfway to my PPL, but planning to get my IR right after.

Cool Ride.. Stay Safe Enjoyed

Good to hear you call out your callsign again! Love your videos. I'm down by KPIA. Started lessons long ago not far at KC75

Keep them coming Ryan.😊

U nailed it!!

Cool video I’m a nervous flyer this actually helps

Great video. Love the Midway approach!

Great video. First time seeing this channel. It really shows how much workload is on your side of the mic. One small quibble -- ATC told you to contact Midway Tower at MNDOE and you switched early. That can lead to problems sometimes if we notice an overtake or some other situation and we can't resolve it since you left the frequency. Just be careful with that. Keep up the good work.

Very nice.

Nice video, my dad was a pilot, spent a lot of time in planes as a boy.😊

What a great aircraft 😍

Enjoyed the ride

New sub…..great content

Great vid of a complex approach. New sub.

Thanks for sharing 😊

Thank you for sharing coming into Chicago here!! We had snow last night so ground stops and cancellations were at Midway and O'Hare last night Friday 1/12/2024.

We had to pick up some people at signature at O'Hare few months ago and it was crazy arrival, very busy. Felt like I taxied longer then the flight took. lol Can't wait to land at Midway. Good vid

Great video keep going

I have never seen one of your videos. I am not a pilot, but occasionally sat in the right seat of our company King Air, because I was the smallest passenger and someone had to sit there. When we switched to flying Citations, our CEO required 2 pilots, and they were required to to have oxygen masks on while flying. Mostly in response to the Payne Stewart tragedy. It was a retail company, and after the Bruno’s grocery plane crash in the 90’s, they wouldn’t put all senior executives on one plane.

good vid thanks

flight sim cj4 and I have no aids no idea what im doing but i get it done in the virtual world lol bad ass man you rock

I’d love to meet that controller that told you to have a beautiful weekend. She’s always super nice! Another great video!

Making it look easy…thanks.

Livin da dream

Great video! I was based at KMDW in the 737-800 for years, and have returned many times in our Citation. With the walls around it, I always equate Midway to a one square mile prison yard. The only good thing? Giordano's deep dish across the street!

I love these CJ4 flights!

CJ4 is a great airplane!

Hi Ryan, would love to see a detailed explanation of the restrictions such as the one starting at 10:40. I thought if you were IFR, you didn't have to worry about VFR airspaces. Thanks.

I’ve been flying the CJ4 on Microsoft flight sim and it’s slowing becoming my favorite plane! So cool to see this arrival, thanks for this inside view and I hope to see more! Quick question if you don’t mind, do you own the aircraft?

I told my mom she said I should buy one of those go faster things that way I could visit her in LaSalle, il. .

nice

Good job of staying ahead of the airplane.

Nice video, would be nice to have a view straight ahead rather than over your left shoulder though, it’s pretty hard to see anything. I subscribed hoping to see more like this 😊

You’re a great pilot. That is complicated coming in.

Will you help settle an issue? During engine out emergency procedures in a jet, is turning in the direction of the dead engine still a consideration?

nice video .. good thing we have tech now days to help with the steps coming into Chicago .. wooo .. nice job .. very nice plane .. next thing is to get a GPS system to control traffic on the ground . so the accident that happened in Tokyo Japan doesnt ever happen again .. in bad weather ect . RIP those disaster relief workers in Japan . God speed brother

Are you in any way associated or work for Foreflight? Why the callsign?

I don't fly period! I wish I could. That was way too much chatter for me. If I did pilot it would be by the seat of my pants and I sure as hell wouldn't be landing in Chicago of all places. But thanks, I think for the ride.

Stickney, not Stinky ;-)

Nice video, hire a low-time pilot to be your co-pilot

for your info, the viewer online cannot see your instruments well, cause camera is not close enough.

What’s the difference between RNAV Y, and the one you executed, Z. ? Why is yankee more for airlines, and why do pilots need special qualification for “y”

I think i can do that. didn't look that hard.

*Not even a barrel role.* (sigh)

Serious questions, I notice a lot of you guys like to fly high performance GA jets single pilot for your videos, why is that? Are you concerned what could happen if you have a medical issue and there’s no one there to get you on the ground safely? Obviously if it’s a massive heart attack you’re not going to survive, but what if it’s a minor stroke and you’re unable to fly the airplane and you basically just watch yourself run out of fuel until you crash? Are you concerned that you need some help to alleviate some of the busy work in the cockpit while you’re in the terminal environment? Also, I notice you take your little girl on some of these flights single pilot and that just doesn’t seem like a responsible idea since you’re essentially risking her life and yours without the redundancy of a qualified first officer in the airplane. I promise I’m not trying to be a dick or anything, I’m just genuinely interested in the reasoning.
