So do you sub for different charter companies? Are the rates the same across the board? Good job! You make it look easy!

The notch reference is a waypoint I assume? Or a visual reference to the "Great notch inn" My old stomping grounds!

😀😃😄😁 I didn't see the tug in the beginning for like 10/15 secs .. I was telling my self- this is the clearest Flight Sim footage - just look at how the headsets are swinging back and forth....I mean the seats were empty.. just a perfect enough storm for me to see the squirrel (the tug driver) pop out at some point to snap me into reality. I know I can compartmentalize mentally, but my eyes seems to do a great job of it too...

Love these videos, you're by far one of the best aviation channels ever. The tuna series were amazing but so is this. Also, i'm jealous that you've got to fly a Little Bird :)))

Thanks for the kind words! I do miss the tuna life for sure but I'm very happy with the power line gig I'm working now. Hopefully I'll start posting more videos of that soon

If the camera has "stabilization" you might try turning it off as sometimes it actually adds to the wobble.

Why is this route called "Route 3"? I ask because the chart says "Whiskey".

@sinfulldoubt Күн бұрын

If you say the whiskey or Sierra route, they'll typically think you're trying to come inbound to the airport as depicted. But both of those routes are directly over highway 3. So basically it's their queue that we're just transitioning the airspace
