UNEDITED flight, Cirrus SR22, all audio

If you've ever wondered what a full general aviation flight is like, come along with us in our Cirrus SR22. From startup to shutdown, see our entire flight from Hyannis, MA to Nashua, NH and back, and listen along to all the radio calls and cockpit audio. Not a moment of video or audio was cut from this flight. I've even added some additional info, Pop-Up Video style, to enlighten your viewing ...

The dumbest smart trick for Lightspeed headsets
มุมมอง 301ปีที่แล้ว
Many people love Lightspeed aviation headsets, but there is one common complaint that annoys some pilots. The mic boom simply isn't as long as the one on Bose headsets. On this flight, I break out my brand new Lightspeed Delta Zulu headset and show you a simple trick I picked up for getting that microphone to stay exactly where you want it. #generalaviation #aviation #cirrusaircraft #sr22 #tips...
How fast to fly to Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard?
มุมมอง 417ปีที่แล้ว
On a perfect summer morning, we fly to the islands off of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, trying to make it back home before the kids wake up. Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard are beautiful and very popular vacation destinations. Even though I'm a private pilot based in nearby Hyannis, I haven't actually flown to the islands yet. Until today. Our teenage kids are taking full advantage of their summer b...

Night Landings -- nosewheel control & centerline
มุมมอง 152ปีที่แล้ว
I'm getting current by flying 3 takeoffs and landings at night to a full stop. But instead of just banging them out and calling it a day, I decided to really work on some things that have bothered me about my recent landings. First: keeping the nosewheel off the runway until the last possible moment. Protecting the more fragile nose gear from unnecessary stress is important for safety and longe...

And I love your instructor, very cool calm and collected. And I also love how he had you go all the way to the runway. Shows a lot of confidence in you. I also love how you called out the mistakes afterwards. Really really good stuff man! Love these kinds of videos! Cheers and happy flying!
