I am a general aviation "weekend warrior". I fly strictly for fun, and I share my videos to promote general aviation. I created this channel out of an earlier TH-cam channel that also included videos of my backyard farm and animals- if you are looking for that channel, you can click here: www.youtube.com/@twest344

October flight from Turners Falls airport along the Connecticut river to Northampton. I talk about r/c planes vs. drones, look at my old apartment (from the air), and discuss small farms along the Connecticut river. I finish the flight with a right-on-the-numbers short field landing.
First flight short (let's try this again)

First time in a small plane (Cessna 152)
มุมมอง 1192 หลายเดือนก่อน
My cousin Donna had never flown in a GA aircraft...I took her up in the C-152 to see the old neighborhood. She asked a lot of good questions- flying with first-time passengers can be challenging, so we started with a single flight around the pattern to make sure she was OK. We then took off to see our former hometown- and then our cameras quit working. #aviation #cessna #generalaviation

My fault, but ATC did flub my callsign just a little; I missed a fairly important piece of info. "Let me know when you're there" lol.

Cross-country flight from Northampton to Sanford Seacoast in Maine. The high heat caused two of my cameras to shut down, so I only have the "dashboard cam".

The Go-Around - Just do it
มุมมอง 708 หลายเดือนก่อน
Go-arounds are an important part of your piloting skillset. Do you practice them? When do you make the "call" to go 'round? Here a simple visit to a local non-towered airport reminds me to always be ready. #generalaviation #flying

Cessna 152 with 2 cameras

#cessna #generalaviation This is primarily a test flight with a wing-mounted GoPro max. I wanted to shoot 360 video, but set the camera to just be, well, a camera. This is mostly "B-roll" and an excuse to learn how to edit with footage from multiple cameras.

My First 100 hours (This is Why You Should get Your Pilot's License)

#generalaviation #pilottraining #airplane #generalaviation #pilottraining #airplane I have hit 100 hours in my logbook- here is a little of what I've seen and done over the last two years. Most of this footage is from 2023 after getting my PPL but some is from my student pilot time. If you are thinking of getting your pilot's license, I hope this convinces you to go for it.

Short Runway on the Ocean- Fishers Island 0B8
A beautiful flight and destination. I'll never forget watching a Skyhawk make several landing attempts in rough wind to runway 28. After finally landing safely and deplaning, one of the passengers literally kissed the ground.
Wow, it can be rough out on an island, especially when the airport only has one runway - sometimes it doesn't matter if you do 10 or 28, it's a 90 degree crosswind either way! It really wan't bad on this day- just a little bumpy around 100-200 feet agl.
Hello Tyler! Another great adventure in one of my favorite 152's ! I will be flying out of 7B2 to KSFZ in the Hawk XP today (Sunday 11/17). I will leave for you an envelope at the FBO with info. Thanks again for a nice little flight including over the ocean👍.
Thanks- I’m working a lot of weekends lately but I will stop by. I will be scheduling my flight review soon so preparing for that will probably be my focus next flight. Have fun in the xp
@@TheSportFlyer-xy6sn Ok, sounds good. Great flight out to NorthCentral - RI. today in the 'Reims Rocket XP'. Before we left, I dropped off the envelope for you. Young lady smiled, knew just who you were, so you can expect that is waiting for you. Best of luck on your review!, how I remember those days 🙂.
I fly RC planes at Woodstock Airport (CT) and we co-exist with full scale GA traffic now. Have you ever been there?
No I haven't I flew r/c at Ellington CT a bunch of times. Woodstock I haven't been to for either r/c or full-scale. Thanks I will check it out I'm always looking for new places to fly to
Made a bunch of jumps at Turners Falls in the seventies and eighties, at Northhampton thru the nineties
I used to watch you guys jump in Northampton from the HCRC model airplane airfield, which is right across the river in Hadley. (This is Tyler I replied from my other account)
Keep up the great work brother. I’ll stop up to that strip in the Warrior. Like your self commentary. Looking forward to watching more of your content
Thanks I will keep an eye out for you!
Great video, Tyler! I really wish we could have connected a couple of weeks ago, next time I’m in the area for sure. Hope you get lots of good autumn flying in 👍
I will catch you next time!
Thanks for this presentation Tyler! I just flew in my buddy's Hawk XP both Sat and Sunday (19 - 20) out of NA. Love seeing 513 making daily flights out of 7B2! I am sure we could meet sometime soon, as I am there most every weekend these days. I am the guy who flew 513 when she was BRAND NEW back in March 14, 1983! I sill have all the log entries and a couple of receipts from 'Standard Air' at KBAF back in the day.
Thanks for the kind words. I will definitely look for you when I drop in! I think most 150’s and 152’s have a similar life- just look at the total hours on Cessnas going up for sale. They are workhorses and just keep going
@@TheSportFlyer-xy6sn Indeed, indeed! Shall I leave you my info at the FBO so we can meet sometime? I think I will be by there this Saturday after an EAA meeting in Westfield!🛩
@@garysmith8455 Yes that's a good idea- Tyler West is my full name. I'm not so sure about this weekend, as I have to go to a big wedding Sunday, which means Saturday is 'chore day"
@@TheSportFlyer-xy6sn Ok Tyler, I will leave my info for you at the desk. When you come by again, do ask for a note I left for you. My name is what you see attached to the comment. Thanks for staying in touch and I look forward to meeting you in the future. I have a very interesting flight experience that took place in 513, I think you would want to know. But, I can save that for our 'meet and greet' 🙂
....Enjoy the wedding! 👍
Nice flying .. I may do a flight to 7B2 in the fall . Looks like a nice approach into 14 .. nice job ..
7B2 is a nice little airport, I grew up less than 5 miles away so I get to fly over the old homestead. It is a friendly airport with a lot of GA activity.
Thanks for the video! I'm also learning to fly in MA, and this is really helpful. I think choosing 'No Music' was a great call.
Another great video! Nothing better than flying your family and friends. I recommend ditching the GoPro for a DJI Osmo Action camera, half the price and way better battery, stabilization and my experience is they don’t overheat (that’s why the GoPro puked I’m guessing). Hey I’m visiting WMass in October and may rent a 172 from Northampton, would be nice to meet up and say hi.
Thanks for the kind words. I am looking around at other camera options. I would be happy to meet with you in October. I subscribe to your channel so I think I can reach out there.
Very nice to see good ol' 513 on youTube! I flew this plane back when it was BRAND NEW in 1983! Hard to believe she's 41 years old as of this date ! It was back around 2000 at an all FORD car show that I re-discovered it at 7B2. Many entries in my log book from back in the day in that 152 II. It was originally new at KBAF where you could buy brand new Cessna aircraft at the time. (Standard Air and later Northeast Air). I subscribed to the channel, and since I hang around the apt. we just might meet up 👍.
Thanks… the plane has definitely been around the block, but keeps on chugging. Definitely the most economical rental (excluding the light sport). I have met people from all over the US with Barnes/Noho connections
Aaah, one of NoHo's rentals 😉!
Yes, I’ve done all my flying at 7B2
No harm in asking them to say again! Nice video thanks for showing :)
Hey! The algorithm is at work. This popped up in my recommended feed, I'm taking lessons at KSFM to get my PPL and was just practicing landing for the first time today on runway 25. If you think your landing was bad, you should've seen some of mine! Cool to see some real world flying in my area. This is super useful for me to just hear radio calls and try to keep up with whats going on. Definitely going to check out some of your other videos. Keep up the good work and I hope to see you out there!
Good luck on your training. KSFM seems like a nice little airport. Your landings will definitely get better with time. Hope to see you around!
No music??…
Nope.. this is an experiment, some people like background music, others can't stand it.
Too bad for the music!
Follow the cones, loved this flight to Jaffrey. You’re making me miss WMass.
It was fun. I flew with my CFI and my friend’s kids- the ice cream was great. New England in June is beautiful- not so much in early spring
@@TheSportFlyer-xy6sn early Spring here in the PNW is a rainy mess, too! Next time you’re up there check out the Mt. Monadnock summit. Day climbers usually start reaching the top at 11am and it’s fun to dip a wing and see waves back. Flying over Quabbin on the way back is always a treat, too. 👍✈️🍀
There’s a Stearman at Noho!! Wow, my favorite airplane at my favorite airport! Lucky man, I flew from that airport for many years and flying a Stearman is a major bucket list item. Thanks for sharing this, what a blast!!
It is a nice plane. It is co-owned by a few guys at the airport, and is sort of the mascot for 7B2. Climb speed is 70 kts, approach speed 70 kts, cruise speed about 80 kts.
@@TheSportFlyer-xy6sn I’m jelly, wish that had been there when I was flying from 7B2. A friend here just bought a WACO biplane, it’s amazing but my heart will always be with the Stearman.
Pilot should have eye protection on.
Agree. Passanger is without a flight helmet and is constantly adjusting his headset. Mic has no noise abatement cover. Who knows, perhaps there is no intercom. Anyone with any time in one of these machines knows there blows a CAT 5 hurricane while in the backseat. CAT 2 while in the front seat. Exhaust note from the W670 is deafening above anything but an idle. Noise cancelling headset is a joke. Still .. nothing compares.
Yup, i guess if you don't like it go around. Or go home in this case, ha 👍
Being the pilot in command is such a thrill. Congratulations on your first 100 hours. 100 hours pilots can get cocky and take risk they shouldn't, so always fly safe. JFK Jr. was at 100 hours and chose to fly at night and in weather and was VFR rated only, cost him and his fiancé's life.
Yes, I have entered the “killing zone” between 100 and 400 hours. I’m actually fairly risk-adverse but it doesn’t hurt to be reminded of that risks
Wow... if there was someone to show you how to use camera/phone viewport.... next time feel free to cover lens with pinky finger..just for fun... ours of course.... you can't understand anything from your point of view ( pun is intended)....
Not shot on a camera phone- this is re-edited from a fixed camera with landscape aspect ratio. My hands were busy flying the plane, not holding the camera. Crosswind corrections put the door jamb over the runway. Feel free to check out the original video (link in the short) to see a better view! Cheers
