Thank you!

I had a sleeping deck, 6' long (I'm 5'8") in my first RANS S-7, it took about 3 minutes to reconfigure when needed, and it saved the weight of a tent. BUT, it also meant I didn't have an enclosed placed to cook, get dressed etc., plus, all my gear had to be moved outside under the plane. Once, I was woke up by 2 small town police while who though they had discovered a robbery in process, a plane being looted. When they noticed me inside the plane, the first thing they asked was "we need to see your license, registration, and proof of insurance." I just looked at them, and said "NO," and all three of us started laughing at once when we realized the absurdity of that. My current S-7S has a different fuselage layout, making the bunk concept less ideal, so I do without it. One real advantage of the idea is "stealth" camping," sleeping in the plane where a tent would be frowned upon, but the gear outside overnight kinda queers that. Great job on your Zenith!

This is awesome, zenith should start making it an option, just listen, do you want your plane with a sleeper, and will that be a king or a queen 😂😅😅😂

Those cheap hose clamps are not good. They will loosen over time and have to be periodically re tightened. I crashed my plane after annual for that reason. Oil line came disconnected in flight and engine seized. N121YT

No ÚLTIMO Power (ered) planes?

I have the first 701 made .

Wow! T Y, this is wonderful jazz. Really amazing!

What engine is in the rolls Royce? Very nice work.

Good flying 👍

Yeah really nice video thanks 😊

13:45 Yup, that's a Corvair engine. All of the William Wynne pattern Corvair conversions have that distinctive nose bowl with the large round cooling intakes.

Great video TY! It was awesome camping next to you and listening to the great music! Hope to see you there next year buddy!

13:12 if her n is 701yy thats very interesting

Thanks for sharing! It was great to see you and Pam at the Homecoming.

This was great! Thanks for sharing!

Innovative!

Really cool idea🤙 Just wondering where are the seat backs? You still run this in the day time as a side by side arrangement yeah?

Very nice explanation and execution of a great idea, I was looking for and aircraft to do this in for overnight remote camping and this might be the ticket.

Thoughtful fellow. I enjoyed your CH750 video as well. I'm considering a cruzer build & your general outlook & optimism are an encouragement. Thx for posting, & keep sharing that spirit.

You have a pleasant way about you. Informative and calm etc. Cheers!

Hi T.Y., I'm located in New Orleans and would also like to ask some questions. What's the best way to contact you?

Sir, following your instructions I was able to make a Bluetooth connection and see the traffic on my tablet and portable GPS. Thank you very much for making this! Phoenix, AZ

Hadn't thought of bundling up in the Fall. How warm is the plane inside? Winter flying not practical?

If you don't mind me asking but may I have your email address? I'm just getting into flying and would love to ask you some questions

Which model of Zenith 750 is this? Cruzer, STOL or Super Duty?

I thought about doing this to my 2003 Camry back in the day of the traveling service rep, or as I use to say a Cowboy in Camry. Now I have an AluCab Canopy Camper on a Tacoma. Next step, I want/need??? a Zenith 750 SD with this setup. Wow!

That's awesome.

And this is why we ALWAYS do a weather briefing before we fly, right?

What a nice guy. Gifting an airplane. I'm sure that they appreciate it very much.

That laughing would distract me. Nice flight, both of you.

I've interchanged emails with Garmin support personnel many times, not finding a solution to this issue. I did enabled bluetooth in the initial settings before, but no one until now had tell me that I should dissabled all others settings as you clearly explain in your youtube video. After thorouhly watching it, I followed your instructions and the thing works. Thanks a lot. I knew the solution would come from this magical community where you find people posting things like this to help someone. I disabled GTN though I have a GTN, question now is what would happen with my GTN, any other issue?

Thanks for sharing and glad you are ok

After the the zenith flyinn Mike got stuck in Sikeston Mo. for a few days because of weather and i got to meet him then, Great Guy, Clever Guy!

Hello T. Y. I just bought a zenith 750 cruiser, and I noticed your video about the tundra tires. I was wondering if you’re braking suffered because of the big tires? Thanks for the great videos.

Good valid points made here in the comments. Just to add some considerations if you're thinking about climbing further into cloud. Do you know what the tops of the cloud are - will you come out the otherside? Are you you flying towards terrain? Where are you tracking? Check the temperature, consider icing conditions, which could get worse as you climb into could. Good learning experience for you 👍

I remember my instructor always telling me, "fly the airplane," which you did. Good job.

Beautiful paint job too

what editing software do you use? looks simple unlike most others

Love the video. Truth is most ppl at some point in their flying get themselves into something like this or something close to this, but most ppl don't have the guts to post it!

Scud Run of the year 😳😳😳

Good sharing. Flying straight out IF this happens to you and climb until a minimum safe altitude. Then contact ATC and ask for support if you aren’t instrument qualified… this was seriously close to an NTSB report.

Thanks for sharing. Sounds like you have the right attitude, but…. Keep in mind, there were better options. Once you are IMC, climb and confess. Remember that there are other airplanes out there on IFR flight plans and there could have a been a departure or arrival at your destination. Also, there are towers that are sometimes unlit that you could have run into. Choosing to fly low under a cloud deck is not the best decision my brother. Glad you are safe and sound.

Wow I'm surprised you even took off

This is over dramatized. This was a small shallow cloud bank and ground viability would still be reasonable most times. Normal piloting conditions really.

Why didn't you just climb. I can see the clear sky above the fog layer. Skud running at 100 feet is asking for trouble. But anyhow glad everything worked out for the better.

That’s pretty cool! T.Y, I really enjoy watching your flying videos. Please keep posting 😀!

Very nice!

Excellent revovery and great self analysis.

Great job on staying calm and flying the aircraft. However, as a learning experience for any new/future pilots watching this, turning back wasn't the right choice. 1) Climb. Altitude is your friend. The moment you couldn't see you should have flown level wings and climbed. A banking maneuver for a non-IFR rated pilot in IMC is a recipe for disaster You can see in the video you were almost over the top of it at a few points. You would have been over there for in 30 seconds and from 3000 ft you would have been able to see the whole situation for miles around. 2) Contact Center. They're there to help. They could have told you where it was clear. Newer pilots are afraid or embarrassed to call Center and think they'll get into trouble. You won't get into trouble and they're great folks. Their job is to keep you safe. 3) NEVER EVER EVER enter a situation where you're thinking, "I think/hope this will work out." Hope it's not a plan. The worst part about this is the next time you'll think, "I made it last time, I'll be fine again." Just not a good mindset. Again, nice job staying calm and flying the plane. That is rule #1.
