This week I explore what I believe is the best part of VFR flying in the US - Flight Following. It's been one of the most useful things I've learned since I've been flying here!

Brilliant video. I must say that airplane is a big upgrade to what you was flying in the UK. It also looks like it's got a parachute too. Which I think is a brilliant device.

Awesome!!!!! I drove from Dallas to Waco many years ago, this video has inspired me to now do it with MSFS. Thank goodness for MSFS; it is the only way I will be able to “fly” something like a Cessna 172 solo from Dallas to Waco. Great to see someone out there flying solo for real! Thanks!❤

Flying in the USA is just so much better in every way than flying here in the uk. So much so I’ve more or less given up on it back home apart from to keep current. Great video Noel. 👌

So cool! I fly out of the DFW area a lot and love flying through the Bravo. For such a busy space, Regional does a great job to accommodate us. Love flying over Carswell and seeing the military planes too.

What an awesome video! It was so relaxing watching you fly. I think it's wonderful that you are able to fly on your own. I can see you really enjoy it and are passionate about it. I hope you enjoy living in TX. I'm from WI myself. I think the heat from TX summers would cause me to wilt and die. I'm a winter person more than a summer person.

Imagine being cleared into Heathrow airspace just to cross over the airfield. The US it's done so much different. I really like the way they handle VFR.

@Calebs_Aviation Жыл бұрын
Great video Noel! Yes, VFR flying here in the United States has to be one of my favorite things to do in my Cessna 172. It is so convenient to just take off from your airport and be able to go pretty much wherever you wanna go so long as it’s not a restricted airport like a military, one or a private field. This video was great just like all of yours and I can’t wait to see you flying back next week.! Cheers 🥂 Caleb’s Aviation 😊

Hi Noel . love your vids, on all channels. much like you, I was a flight geek most of my younger years...but the difference is that I never had the courage to go to flight school...I stayed with MFS through the years. hours and hours..... then I got married had kids and neglected it completely until a month ago.....I'm playing with the idea of going to private flight school. I'm 44 years old.....am I crazy?

This is a fun video. If you don't mind some feedback - I would avoid playing music during communications. I like hearing the back and forth with ATC. Also, if it's possible to split the intercom audio from the radio audio - it would be nice if you could just isolate the intercom audio when you're talking directly to us - sometimes it's difficult to understand with the music and irrelevant ATC going at the same time. Looking forward to more videos!

I think they are overworked a lot, and with so much airspace in such a small area, it's probably not surprising.

Nothing worse than lazy talking on radios. Speaking clearly and annunciation are paramount. Listening to people talk like that are frustrating. Don't be lazy.....it doesn't make you cool! Great video other than that!

G1000 is fancier but a bit more complicated. I'm still getting used to everything being on one screen unlike in the SR20 with the Avidynes.
