Shoutout to Josh my CFI in this video! He was super easy to learn with, great guy!
I don’t know if it’s good or bad either but it’s gonna make for some great videos
Where is the victor race with the supra??
Keep on doin it for Dale and Ed brother!!
Fighter jet next?
MORE CONTENT like this Garret!!
I’m A pilot, this instructor is the freaking man, what a legend!!!!!!! . I hope he sees this, you my guy are exactly what is needed for instructing in aviation
@TROGLOKAHNstraight to the point explains what it is and how it works A+
@TROGLOKAHNnot all instructors are equal… assuming you’ve been through school, you should know this.
Hello Mr. Rob, would you guide me to a good aviation school ? It’s always been a dream of mine to fly and just always been a part of my life. I’ve studied a lot of military fighter jets , bombers, AWACS, subsonic trainer aircraft.
@TROGLOKAHNYou’ve never had…a good or bad teacher through out schooling? 🤨
@@mikefletcherjr3022 I'm not Mr. Rob, but I currently go to UND, the program is great but rigorous and holds you accountable. If you would just want to get your PPL and not go through the commercial pipeline I recommend a Part 61 School possibly at your local airport or Aerocenter. Part 61 is also a great way to go for those who don't want to go through Part 141 and college.
This instructor was absolutely amazing. Professional, serious, and rewarding. This dude knows how to teach people and to let them know they are doing a great job in a potentially stressful situation.
can tell he has instructed and flown for years by no life'ing hard in the cabin. lol
i noticed he watched Cletus's hand every time he flipped a switch just to make sure he was flipping the right one
Such a huge difference between knowing stuff and being able to explain it patiently. Looks very cool, the interaction between the 2 of them.
He's an amazing dude for sure
@@BartholomewJenkins69420same very aware
How cool do you need to be dude? You are living a dream man. Im so happy for you. Absolutely savage and wholesome at the same time.
I think that is why I have a lot of respect for this guy. Has done so much but without the ego trip that many in the same position would normally have.
Is it weird that it kinda makes me proud of Cleet for all the props he got during Training? Way to go Brother!!!
Not weird at all! There are so many TH-camrs out there who will do anything for content....Cleet is one of the few that does what he loves and the content is a side effect! He is very intelligent and surrounds himself with like minded people. McFarland Aviation and McFarland Racing are going to become Empires of the Industry!
Im sure it had nothing to do with the cameras everywhere and who the student was in the slightest. Him knowing this was going on youtube Im sure played zero role whatsoever.
Did you say "props"? I like it. Lol.
Weird...no
Ghey...yes
😂😂😂
Dude can drive anything
It's just cool to see a normal nice guy make it. Hes got the money, house, the track, the cars, the wife and kid. Congratulations man! You're living most men's dreams.
And the friends
I was thinking exactly the same thing, then read your comment.
Right, nice to see it happen for good people for a change.
Yep. And he's made many subscribers like us happy. We love it!
Not a normal guy, dad gave him it all.
Way back in the day, I was really into RC Helicopters. While I was deployed in Aghanistan, I spoke with a couple of the helicopter pilots and asked if I could check out the helicopters. They brought me out and showed me the Blackhawks and Apaches. I noticed a ton of stickers on the inside of the helicopters. I mentioned to the guy showing me around that I flew RC Helicopters and that I had some RC Heli Magazine stickers and asked if I could add to the stickers. I found a few empty spaces and added a sticker in a few of the copters. I then got some pictures and they were later posted in the magazine. As odd as it may sound, FOB Shank, Afghanistan was a very cool deployment (Accept for the rocket attacks. Those sucked!)
Thank you for sharing your experience.
From one Blackhawk pilot to another, it really is an incredible machine. Best job I ever had.
I have a question? In a situation of combat what Time you have to start the blackhawk ? Do you do all the step by step ou you juste go fuckoff start that shiet and get up?
@@francisst-pierre4995 yeah, MEDEVAC does it all the time. You can have it started and on the go very quickly if need be.
They are not taking off in combat. They are taking off from base and yes they do all their checks
Black Hawk down!
How long did it take you to memorize all those steps?
Just listening to the instructor talk about how shocked he was with how quick Cleetus reacted and how he’s probably his best student wow. That lets everyone know truly how good Cleet is at Captaining anything. Guy was flying blackhawks in Afghan and is saying he’s impressed with you! Damn brother keep it up
Garret is literally the motorsport prodigy of our generation and the world doesn't even know it yet, he's still just getting started!
hes got a few years of smaller helicopter experience and most of the concepts transfer over to the larger birds
@@imchris5000Yeah he has been flying twin engine birds for a couple years. His BO-105 and the A365 are both twin engine.
Definitely a joke but wouldn’t expect anything less from a drag racer reaction is key 😂 but gotta give it to Garrett he goes all in on whatever he does and he goes above and beyond to learn and get better in everything he does. I love the fact he is learning everything he possibly can to better himself in the aviation industry. It not only shows his love for it but shows he wants to be the safest he possibly can and when things go south he is more the capable to handle whatever it may be.
@@imchris5000Well if flying scale R/C stuff transfers over to true size aircraft, the smaller it is the harder it is to fly. As you scale up in size and weight, you don't have to react as quick because the mass slows all movements down. You will never hear a pilot of a large aircraft say.... "I like my women like I like my aircraft, big... Slow... and expensive". That would be a backwoods girl from Kentucky who loves 50oz filets for appetizers and says..." You gonna eat that? "... While pointing at your steak 🥩.
Cleetus getting licensed to fly a Blackhawk completes the holy grail. What can this man not do?
Has he done a glider yet? OH I KNOW! A blimp!!!! He needs to by a BLIMP for the freedom factory!
limbo...
Sleep
@@WolfPilot Blimp would be great for the Camera angles during races!
i wanna see him try asphalt super late model racing. dale would be proud
I worked a rotation in a field medical tent on a military runway and loved watching the pilots practice besting their previous landings. It was a game of how clean can you do it.
Blackhawk is just one of those engineering masterpieces. Absolutely magnificent machine.
But like most helicopters it has a killed a lot of our armed force. The blackhawks crash 3x more than the V22 osprey does, the v280 replacement will be a godsend
@@amazin7006 From an Aussie, yeah they fall out of the sky MUCH too easily. We've lost plenty of soldiers to them as well.
@@amazin7006 The fact that the US Army alone has more than 2000 Black Hawks, and they've been in service since 1979 whereas there are less than 400 Ospreys and they only entered service in 2005 might have something to do with that.
@@arkwill14 Not really at all. If anything, that means the blackhawk should have a safer record since it has been around much longer (new aircraft tend to crash more due growing pains and lacking skills in maintenance). We are talking crash RATES, not total crashes. Basically "how many accidents happen during X amount of hours of flight?"
@@amazin7006 alot of times they were downed there was context as to why the bird itself is an amazing machine
The fact that the CFI was so impressed speskes volumes to Garrett's skill as pilot/driver/absolute wheelman
I think the reaction time he's got has a big help factor from Leroy being the typical 6 second savage he is.
@o0purehate0o He also has always had a very good sense of the vehicles around him and feeling connected to them. Some people get in a vehicle for the first time and they need some time to mesh with it and figure out the way it moves and how much room it takes up but Cleeter seems to just need minutes/hours where as most need days/months of time. It's absolutely insane how many times he's hopped in something for the first time and just looked natural.
@@neithertwosturrr3016 yeah if you go back and look at cleet drive vaughns fd car he just hops in and is killing it and he does the same thing with every other vehicle he is in its kinda insane
I think I was most impressed at how fast he picked up racing jet boats.
@@johnharris4738 Couldn't agree more. Like the fact he not only picked it up as a fun hobby at the moment but literally competed and got insane qualifying times for a beginner.
This man’s goal in life is to drive / fly everything he possibly can and I love it. From sticking turbo whistles in his exhaust to piloting a Blackhawk. 😆
Australia here - we just scrapped the MH 90 Tipan and have got 40 brand new blackhawks coming down under. We've had a bunch for a while - every time they use to fly over my house all blacked out full of SASR it was such a buzz. Congrats on getting your type rating! Yall are going to have some mad adventures!
Mad. I've not watched a Cleet video for a while and then I come back and he has a license to fly a Blackhawk. Absolutely mental, well done!
My favorite thing about Garrett is he never half asses anything he genuinely loves what he does and does it to the best of his ability really inspires me watching these videos, absolutely my favorite group to watch
I find that very true. Great Videos from a very humble guy.
How much are you paid to comment?
And is your currency in chickens or bags of rice?
@@ThunderAppeal Nothing, but both. Learn more to inspire more. 🤡
Get the hell out of here@@RepentandbelieveinJesusChrist_
He just bought a lap top for 6 chickens, 2 pigs, and a goat.@@ThunderAppeal
As a former UH-60 crew chief, I absolutely love and approve this video. Keep on being amazing sir!!!
You tangos throw rocks at my Romeo kid 😂
as a current uh-60 crew chief i approve lol@@UnclePorkchop
Whats up CrewDawg!
15T here as well retired 10 years ago
< 67T 🍺 showing my age! 🍺
Training never ends. As a back seater Flight Medic, knowing immediate EPs and using the checklist is key to a good flight. Take offs are optional. Landings are mandatory.
What great acft. I have just over 2,000 hours in A/ A+ & L Hawks and 1900+ hours in other helicopters. The most fun you can have with your pants on! Congratulations guys!!
🤣
That instructor is a true legend. Such good attitude and positivity. Absolutely loved watching this!
Next video: I've bought a Blackhawk!!!
As a former Blackhawk mechanic in the army, this video fills my heart with joy.
60s are 💩, 47s is the way hooah lol
@Rodknockandy 47s are just 2 palm trees banging a dumpster lol!
@@nick_in_chaos1908anything that’s saved from the scrapyard is good just a shame it’s used for bad that’s 😂by it he such a stigma
@@Rodknockandy, right you are!
Thank you for your service Sir
That's awesome man, I don't think anyone could have even slapped the smiles off your faces!! That kind of excitement doesn't happen often. Congrats on your pass!!
This is so badass. Respect to all those who can fly these! Sure much training an knowledge goes into this! Very cool.
Former Blackhawk IP here. Proud of all you're accomplishing. Be safe, and please use hearing protection - all of you in the crew.
Smartest comment here...Hope they listen!!
I haven't been in a running Blackhawk since the 80s but a zillion hours as a Crew Chief and never ending tinnitus concurs. can still hear that transmission whine in my right ear. and that was using double ear pro.
I cut down trees for a living and I wore ear protection when I was 17 the older guys gave me grief for it but I'm really glad I did I did have some tinnitus but Dr Berg's little exercise help me with that,@@flynlr
Still the most bad ass sounding helicopter ever along with the chinook
@@flynlr Were you around for the Crashhawk days? Remember them being grounded several times for just falling out of the sky.
Leave it to Cleetus to be the one guy to wheelie a Blackhawk while getting his license for it 😂
Bruh I was thinking same thing lmao. Like how you ask to do some stunts while in training. Lmao what a G
Nobody ever did a burnout in a helicopter but if it was possible Cleetus would find a way.
@@InsideOfMyOwnMind time to bust out some electric hub mounted motors for the wheels lmao
@insidemyownmind clet has had a helicopter in a few of his burnout competitions
@@InsideOfMyOwnMindno power goes to the wheels though
I'm a Blackhawk crew chief in the army national guard and it's absolutely wild to see one of my favorite creators flying a 60. Well done
You're still not as cool as 15Ns.
Thanks for showing the details on the training. I really want to learn. Watching TH-camrs do it makes it seem more attainable. Your enthusiasm for flying shows.
As a current 12 year MH-60 Crew Chief I love this video. Glad you got to experience the power of the Blackhawk brother.
53J avionics back in the 80s, I miss it so much.
Way back in the 90's, I was an Avionics Mechanic. AH-64, UH-60, OH-58 mainly, with a few other airframes in the mix. Loved it, and it led to some amazing things after. Thanks, Uncle Sam, for giving me the opportunity. I had some fantastic fellow soldiers, and got to see and do some amazing things. Many thanks to my fellow veterans for their service. Good job, Cleetus, that's a heck of an aircraft. All the best to you and your family.
I’m always impressed how quick Garrett can get comfortable in a machine. What an operator
He combines high intelligence with incredible hand to eye coordination. I honestly believe if Garrett had gone into the military he could have ended up a NASA astronaut (if he could have handled the math/engineering). He’s that good.
The guy is just a natural wheelman. Like, he can hop in anything and after a little bit of time, can be very proficient at it much faster than the average person can.
Smoooothhh operatorrrrr
Really enjoyed this video. I can very much appreciate your enthusiasm for the experience of flying this helicopter. I am a 75 year old strictly wannabe/wish-I-could helicopter flyer. My only experience was as a passenger in a Huey while serving in the Army back in 1969-71. Being an X-Plane flight simulator user I started out with no intention of playing around with anything but fixed wing. Then decided to try their Nimbus Huey. After flipping it over like a tipped over cow for what seemed an infinite number of times I finally got somewhat airborne and haven't fired up a fixed wing in the simulator since. The vortex ring state is now my biggest challenge but getting better at it. One thing the military taught me was procedures rule. Particularly when operating weaponry and flying any aircraft.
I live in central Idaho in the Nez Perce Forest which may explain why the weather looked so familiar.
Thanks again for posting the video.
Planes are really cool, they will always be my first love, but helicopters have a special spot... they're just... what else beats the air into submission? Everyone else bows down at the feet of bernouli before every flight, but not helicopters 8) They just spool up and get to business. Beautiful machines.
What a great teacher! This dude is amazingly sweet, knowledgeable and patient!
Great job gentlemen! 30 year commercial pilot and I still remember that feeling of accomplishment and pride tempered with knowledge. It may just be a bigger challenging ride but thats what keeps it interesting and keeps us sharp. Never stop learning. Congratulations 👏 to you both
I suspect most Blackhawk operators are former/current US Army pilots. Does the FAA recognize US Army certification or do they need an FAA endorsement as well?
“…throw the passengers out” Hahaha 😂 Congratulations to you, Dave, and your other buddy on this incredible achievement. Not only is it the coolest thing you’ve ever operated, but it’s definitely the most American thing you’ve done thus far. 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 So sick! Again, congratulations brother! 🤘🏻
I laughed hard at that
So frickin cool, gives me chills just watching this, and takes me back to my PPL training days and the buzz you got with executing perfectly on first try 🙌
Dave Sparks is a great friend giving you access to this…. He’s a keeper 🥳
I wish every instructor would be like this guy. He is amazing!
I think I’d let the instructor tell me how to eat a bowl of cereal, I love how constructive and informative he is without being stern, it’s a very serious topic, but he was very passionate about it, props to you cleet!
Props. 🤣
😂
Very impressive man. I’m a former flight engineer on KC-10s and your understanding of the systems and all around airmanship is awesome to see. Very very cool to see you progressing the way you are.
It's really cool to see him locked in, he's gotten comfortable with 1000+++ cars but I'm glad he's got the maturity to be professional and focused with (relatively) unfamiliar dangerous machines.
Me too! 6th ARS.

As an aviation enthusiast (but not a pilot), I love everything about this. Awesome.
an absolute unit of a trainer my guy is beast at teaching. Cool calm and collected when training I can only wish I have an instructor like this holy crap
Love the UH60! In 2005 I was at LSA Anaconda and served as a gunner for about 300 hours total. Once the crew chiefs found out I could spin a wrench I was pretty busy, but I loved every second of it. I loved giving the preflight brief to the pax and inevitably would be asked “how far will this thing fly on one engine?” The answer was “Oh she’ll fly right to the crash site “. Delivered deadpan, fucking hilarious! I miss flying in those beasts. Well done man.
I was a Blackhawk crew chief in the US Army. Watching your video today brought back so many great memories. Thanks for the video brotha
More flying videos... Don't be afraid to show more of the process of flying. Awesome stuff! From a fellow pilot.
Awesome bring along. thanks so much for sharing. and congratulations.
It doesn’t surprise me that you did really well flying the Blackhawk. You truly are gifted when it comes to operating anything with an engine. What a cool machine the Blackhawk is
The aviation content took this channel right over the top! I love all things with wings and I love flying bricks too! Thanks for all the great content over the years!
I actually got goose bumps for you when I saw you stick the first landing good on ya this shows hard work pays off!
Sick achievement. Never really been into helicopters, but you don't need to be to understand just what an epic thing that was. Hats off to both of you. ❤
@@RepentandbelieveinJesusChrist_ go away.
I work H60 engines for the Air Force, and it is cool watching you do the run up on these. Normally I would be standing outside on a headset listening to all those callouts, then telling you the blade droop stops are good before I unplug and run away.
Congrats to you both and thank you Josh for your training.
You two worked so well together and it shows you have studied hard for this. So cool.
You're a legend Cleet. If you're son has half of your motivation he's going to go a long way.
Keep smashing goals with all you do and thanks for letting us come along for the ride.
Hats of to you legend.
dude stop it, you're making me want a heli!! You're killing it bro!!
Ha ha Kevin, 100% right. I guess I shouldn't be surprised you watch Cletus too. Glad I saw this comment, made me check and TH-cam had unsubscribed me again grrrrr.
i agree he is killing it... but he needs more RC content like you, i love watching your videos
@@puritan7473sureeeee
Was not expecting this 😂
Kevin mate you need a Blackhawk not a RC but a real one like Dave's 💯💯💯💯👍👍😜🔥
I flew the UH-60M, C-12, & UC-35 as a Warrant in the Army. Loved flying the Blackhawk! Nice Cleetus. Gotta love that AFCS! Have you flown with it off? I assume so.
Congratulations Mr McFarland! That's an amazing achievement and was super cool to ride along with you!
now buy one
I'd bet money that he already owns one tbh
Need two licensed pilots to fly one
@@KD0utdoorsokay how much do you want to bet I'll take that bet?
Get LS GEORGE his license next!!!!
😂😂
You're such a great role model for kids to look upto! 100x better than all these manufactured 'celebrities' on TV and in the sports and music industries etc. That's what is so cool about TH-cam, that normal everyday people like you, Dave and Matt from demo ranch can make it big. Congratulations bro, you deserve it.
That is an amazingly complex and versatile aircraft! Congrats on the rating and for sharing the experience
.
Congratulations guys, what an compliment operating an amazing machine! I would love to see a video with you and Sparks taking his Blackhawk on a trip together.
Not just content to get type rating training, he goes for a stunt. Love it.
We're all just living vicariously through Cleetus at this point. Can't wait to see what he challenges himself with next.
First, shout out to ol Cleeter dominating everything he touches, but also shout out to Madi being so supportive. Young one and pregnant? Yeah I wouldn't get away with any of this 😂
Yeah you would lol, if it brought the paychecks Garrett is bringing in I'm sure it wouldn't be an issue haha
With the massive support system he has I'd put money on it that she is never actually alone with the kids unless she wants to be
Seeing where this is going lol, obviously I agree to some degree. She definitely has help, well taken care of, but that doesn't focus on the women side of it wanting her husband home and going through pregnancy while he's out playing (obviously paying the bills) but playing 😂 (if you know, you know)
@@D_Trade I'm also willing to bet she's with him while he travels most of the time to that and he is probably home alot more that the videos show
Well except for Trophy trucks. That's about the only thing he can't dominate other than dominating them into the ground 😇
Absolutely Awesome! Mr. Diesel is a great guy to let you fly his baby black hawk. Cleetus, you made the flight and landings look easy. Great flying!
Wow incredible. Nice flying.
Being an aircraft mechanic and seeing my favourite cars content creator do this is something I would never imagine 😂! Happy to see you flying and learning, those are some incredible and complex machines, be safe and enjoy the journey!
What does it take to become an aircraft mechanic?
@@ethanmorrison1867Join the military, Army if you wanna be a Chinook or Blackhawk mechanic
Years in military or private mechanics school spending a ton of your own $$$
Dude, you're absolutely crushing life! Love to see when guys set goals, chase the goal, and achieve the goal. I couldn't be more stoked for somebody that I do not even know
Ah, 15 years of memories... Regarding the long start process, imagine you're in a medevac unit and you need to get in the air as soon as possible, we used to go through the checklist up to start, to get everything set up so we could run out in the middle of the night and get rolling in 8 minutes (following everything up with the checklist as we taxi, before takeoff). Also, flying on the tailwheel is cute, but if you ever get the chance again, try a 3 point roll-on landing -- I used to love doing those. You have to get down to about 20 knots on approach and nose over slightly just as you get toward the ground. 😀
Congrats man !
Started watching your channel for the cars. But as a dual rated guy it was fun to watch the aviation content filter it’s way into things.
You should definitely upload the video of the whole startup procedure. So far one of the best videos of the cockpit procedures in the hawk for the civilian world.
I absolutely love how calm and nice flight training instructors are! Here in the UK car driving instructors are such d**ks, these guys in your videos are so chill and really are just trying to help you the best they can
It’s a Crew Resource Management issue. If your CFI is a dick, that can be a big safety issue. Safety and Aviation go hand in hand.
Hahhh...when in the air...calm collected speak with ease and directness....after action...yeah that's different...debrief will be hard if you fucked up. You're on the dirt now...breathing...did you do something that might not make that possible? Intensive scrutiny of this event will now commence.
After he mentioned combat flying, I realized teaching folks must be a walk in the park.
I know what you mean, especially when half of the driving instructors can't driver properly themselves it's not even funny.
Entirely different situations. Here's someone driving a car together with thousands of others that are getting into routines, ignoring checking their cars for safety, starting to forget some of the rules or being too relaxed with some rules and sometimes being safed by other drivers that avoided the accident that you didn't even know you're causing. Because it's "normal" and routine and everyone is driving.
And then there's someone spending a lot of money on flying in a machine much more dangerous and expensive than a car. So that student is much more likely to have respect and awareness of the situation. Look at some of the student drivers, thinking they are the born race car drivers or thinking driving is nothing more than accelerating and turning ... I'd probably be a strict and "dick" driving instructor, given most of the students.
Congrats on getting your type rating along with Dave...great accomplishment.
Found your channel w 700hp snow rail and have no idea why I'm hearing your name. Have place in Colorado you made me book flight to but this video is incredible. You have the best life on earth. Love it
Certified Blackhawk Pilot! That’s a big ol’checkmark in Cleetus’s bucket list. Absolutely amazing watching everything he’s accomplished so far. What’s next, flying a blimp?
Wanted to say what an awesome dude your CFI Josh was in the video!!! Great demeanor and someone who obviously knows his shit. And...what a machine the Blackhawk is!!! You have made me feel all warm inside...thankyou!!
Congratulations to you all, absolutely an incredible achievement. A 20min. video dose not adequately convey the amount of hard work and determination something like this requires. You guys are all amazing people.
Being Blackhawk certified is such a huge flex. Congrats!
Couldn't happen to a nicer guy!
Very impressive, Cleetus!
If all else fails he probably can find some work!
Congratulations Garrett and Dave, thats an incredible achievement. And what an opportunity to be able to fly a machine like that!
Cleetus ist ein wirklicher super Dude und ich wünsche es ihm von ganzen Herzen ......Was für eine Freude dies zu sehen
Proud moment for you both.. more collaborations needed!!. Blackhawk is just one of those engineering masterpieces. Absolutely magnificent machine..
Man, it makes my heart smile hearing the instructor say how impressed he was of your ability, you are an impressive dude and that is inspirational.
Seriously love the variety of content Garrett brings us. Truly the best on TH-cam. 🤘
Something that we do in the Army, when it comes to lockout, or any movement of the PCL in general, it’s a good idea to announce PCL movements. It sounds simple, but without announcing it, sometimes crews can misdiagnose emergencies and unfortunately we had an incident because of that. Anyways, a good practice for safety. Keep on killing it, Cleet.
Well I love how you are taking the time to explain it as you're learning and it's never made me wanna learn to fly please do more tutorials your reactions are what makes it fun you and Dave both got me really excited to learn I wish my life would actually allow me to experience some of these things I love enjoying it with you guys
I've watched quite a few videos of folks flying all sort of aircraft and one thing that has always amazed me is the conversation between the pilot and the tower. Learning how to listen and understand what the tower's telling the pilot is amazing.
How much are you paid to comment?
And is your currency in chickens or bags of rice?
SLC #2 was my home airport when I got my license 45 years ago. What a treat to see Cleet getting instruction there. Just like being home. Thank you man!!!!
I think it’s so cool you guys are doing this. I’m a fan of both channels and love aviation and badass vehicles of all kinds
Congratulations guys Well done.
Maybe do a simular stripe pattern but fill the strips with metallic navy camo.
Feeling super proud of a human I've never met. You're the real deal Cleet. An inspiration and a great positive influence. Great work brother.
Congratulations to both of you guys, that’s a big deal. Not too much you can’t operate when you put your mind to it Cleetus. It’s great to have friends like Dave who just happened to have a Blackhawk helicopter laying around to practice on. 👍👍🇨🇦
Fantastic Instructor. Solid equipment. Good pilot. Easy checkride. Nice work and congrats! Had to say something because most aviation content on TH-cam is cringy. This is fantastic.
Looked so chilled in training shout out to the instructor, so envious damn lov it dave your becoming a legend. Congratulations both of you.😉🤜💥🤛
What is not to love about this channel,this man does and has a little of everything....I can see Cleet and Dave on a rescue mission in the future....
Cleeter is knocking off bucket list items like they’re side quests in a videogame! Can’t think of a single other person living life quite like ol cleet! Keep it up man, we love to see it!
he is getting ready for all the possible zombie/post-apocalyptic scenarios there could be :D theres not a single thing he cant operate :D honestly no idea how everyone flying these things dont get confused of all the things... but i guess you get used to it... and if things go south then you have to really ''fly or die'' :D
How much are you paid to comment?
And is your currency in chickens or bags of rice?
lots of money will allow that :)

Hell yeah brother ! Thanks for uploading and never disappointing us 💪🏽 one of the most humblest person I’ve met
Very cool! I was a crewchief then a T.I. on A models about 40 years ago. The simplification of the lower console avionics is crazy to see. I guess SAS1 SAS2 TRIM & FPS are all on the same display there.
Cleetus! Living the dream brother!! Good work with your reaction @ 14:40 Pro!!!
Your attitude as a pilot impresses me so much. I have met you twice and your humble respect for your hard work and life is what makes me watch and support you! I am also super jealous lol.
Congrats. Worked on and flew in pavehawks for ten years. Wasn't happy at first coming from HH-3Es and MH-53Js, but learned to love the birds.
Ain't nothing like a 53 and the new K model... Hopefully the AF makes a new Pave Low

Looks very easy . Probably could jump in an start it up just by watching this vid ... Thought there'd be more buttons an stuff . ....firreal thou how you memorize all that is amazing...
Been a H-60 PaveHawk Combat Rescue mechanic for 19 years now. Congrats on getting those flights in! Enjoy it!
