Jason, I totally disagree with getting items done on the Taxi. I brief the Taxi checklist before I move when I'm on the taxiway I do the Taxi checklist immediately while on the taxiway after checking for other aircraft, vehicles & or anything on the taxiway. The rest the time my eyes are outside the airplane looking. When your eyes are inside the airplane and you're doing part of your checklist that is when you run into things or run off the run taxiway... My plan always his heads outside to airplane while the airplane is moving. And YES I'm 24 for 24... See you at Sun & Fun in April.
16 for 16 - The three things you can't get back when facing an emergency - the runway behind you, the fuel in the truck, and the sky above. This is a great refresher video and I like the acknowledgement that everyone makes mistakes, be kind to each other!
16 for 16. Great view with the sunset. In this flight you can hear different calls and comms that will keep you alert, you don’t want to have someone chasing you around.
So good. What an excellent series. You’ve planned it out flawlessly. I’m sure it’s a ton of work and there are probably a lot of people involved, but you are a rock star of an instructor.
16/16 Another good one. Sorry you had to put on a jacket. It has warmed up here today all the way to 16 deg f. It would take me 2 hours of running a torch on the pins on the bottom of the hangar door just to get those loose all the while I would be running a torpedo heater to warm up the engine oil so the prop would even be able to turn! ha I think some of your fans would like to see you bundled up for winter instead of working on your tan! ha ha
16 for 16: Every year I say this is the year I try and fly into a Class Bravo airport. And every year I fail to make time for it. One of these years I'm going to do it. What makes it hard is 1. I just don't have a need. None of the flights I make routinely take me even near a Bravo airport. 2: The only two Bravo airports in my home state of Texas are DFW and IAH. Chances are slim of getting to fly into them in a single engine piper. However, I can practice landing at airports within the class Bravo airspace. That I can make time for.
16 for 16 here. I’ve listened to the automated ATIs for years and have never thought it was Mr Creepy until today. I’ll forever think of him as that now.
16 for 16, that was very friendly communication from the ATC. Sometimes the tone they give, seems GA guys are a burden to them. I understand they are busy and fast and we are slow generally. They seemed very nice. Thanks Jason.
16/16: another hazard of intersection takeoff at a large airport is being next to the point of touchdown or rotation of the large Jets, and just slightly downwind. Their wingtip vortices can flip a small airplane over.
I fly Van's RV-12's (light sport plane) and I always get nervous during run-up when a KC-46 or C-17 taxi past us (we do have a large run-up area luckily). Just one of their jets could toss the 1320 pound RV-12, never mind 4 of those jet engines!
I’m a student at a class D airport below bravo and in the special flight rules area (SFRA) of DC and have departure and approach. I’ve never flown in bravo airspace. Departure and approach always tell us remain on course outside of bravo. Your video was great in showing what to expect if I ever was in bravo. 16 for 16.
Great lesson. Printed out the taxi diagram to follow along. Haven't flown down in Florida (I'm NY based), so this was nice. Similar Clearance/Ground/Tower/Departure sequence for Class Charlie as well.
Good video. Just a tip: Not a fan of the iPad scratchpad for clearances. Anything but the most simple ones won’t work out, and then you will have to ask them to read it again while you dig out a pencil and paper.
I do fly regularly from class B airspace, and these procedures are memorised to me. Actually the country I live in is typically run whole of its airspace as a controlled. Good job Jason by uploading safer pilot videos. I would love to see procedures of uncontrolled airspace including those uncontrolled aerodrome landing, takeoffs and circuit patterns radio calls.
Great video. I was always taught that when taxiing, 100% of your attention should be on taxiing. I was surprised you took out a checklist and did some run up procedures while taxiing.
16 for 16, and _loving_ it. This video reminded me of my night x-country from KSEE to KSNA. It was my first time landing and taking off from a Class Charlie airport. What a blast that was! Jason, these videos are _so_ valuable! Thank you, and be blessed. ❤
16 for 16! Good controllers make all the difference. Here at KTUS the controllers are great. And we have lots of military traffic. We've got the 162nd Fighter Wing at KTUS (currently training the Ukrainians) and all the traffic at Davis-Monthan. GA is way down the list on priority and the controllers do a great job of getting us in and out, even with 1 of parallels closed for 5 years while it's being rebuilt. Don't be afraid to fly in / out of Class B & C
16 for 16, good stuff. Personally I would hold off all run up items till the end of the taxiways. Just like using all of the runway, I stay eyes out when taxing and doing run up items in order to avoid missing one. That was my primacy kicking in and I don’t have your level of experience.
16 for 16, Jason! Awesome job on the Bravo departure. I also try to avoid intersection departures. Even in my RV-7A where I can lift off in a thousand feet - it's always nice to have runway in front of you rather than behind you.
16 for 16! Great video! It is so nice when the controllers are friendly and professional. As a student I still mess up on the radio occasionally and the controllers know that there are a lot of student pilots so they are very nice and know what we mean to say (although sometimes I say a little more than needed). They know we get nervous - as soon as I mess up one word my brain freezes and struggles for the proper words. They seem to know ..and it is ok (obviously not if it was incorrect or a possible danger). They respond with the correct phraseology to confirm (then my reply/readback is good) Learn, learn, learn - think about the mistake and practice with arm chair flying 👍 My CFI and I chuckle when a 'professional'/commercial pilot fumbles and he always says to me "see, everyone makes mistakes now and then, you'll do fine next time."
That last Skyhawk you heard on departure, 60155, is from my same flight school at SRQ. Always enjoy your videos but even better when I hear familiar call signs. VFR in and out of TPA or any Bravo, I never would have thought it could be so easy. Great series!
16/16. Departing a bravo can hurt a bit. Once in a helicopter, clearance told us to startup and wait for departure. we sat on the ramp with engine running for 30 min before they let us depart.
I love that the D-ATIS voice sounds like a Commodore 64 in 1985. It's so typical of everything aviation.
Sounds like SAM from the Commodore 64
16 for 16! I love how friendly the controllers are. Really puts you at ease
16 for 16 Sir 👍😇👌OUTSTANDING RADIO CALL 👌👌😇😇👍👍Cheers 🍻🍻
16 of 16 check in by Swedish PPL Pilot at the moment in Jakarta, Indonesia

16 for 16! 🎉 Where’s your wedding band Jason? Noticed it missing yesterday…hope all is ok!
16 for 16, this is a great video. Class B's are still nerve wracking so nice to see someone actually doing it!
16 for 16. This is my favorite video so far.
16 for 16! Gotta love that ATIS!! Frankenstein at his best!
16/16 Thanks Jason for helping us " Learn " every day . . . Bob
16:16.....my new fav in this series!!
16 for 16. Great view with the sunset. In this flight you can hear different calls and comms that will keep you alert, you don’t want to have someone chasing you around.
16 for 16, Thanks for these videos. I am learning something with each one. Excellent job!!
16 for 16. It's always great to look at where the bigger aircraft touched down to avoid wake turbulence before departure.
16 for 16! This series has been great! Keep it up!
So good. What an excellent series. You’ve planned it out flawlessly. I’m sure it’s a ton of work and there are probably a lot of people involved, but you are a rock star of an instructor.
Thank you my friend!

16/16 - That shot with the FedEx plane and the sunset...nice!

Sweet 16 for 16, all in for the mzeroa team!
16 of 16 done. Again, I nice to see the Tampa Old Bay and the Gandy and the Frankland bridges. It brings memories.
16 for 16 here. I might have been tempted to request a hold short for wake turbulence from that arriving airliner.
Thanks for this Jason!
Been quietly watching these series as a student pilot with around 30 hours. Been super helpful. Just wanted to say thankyou
16 for 16 Just Amazing Teaching Thank You Thank You, Jason!!! WOW!!!!
16 for 16! Roger That! Thanks Jason!
16 for 16! This like yesterday’s are very intimidating to me. Very informative!
16-4-16! “Runway behind me doesn’t do me any good”. Great video! Bravo busy! 😳
16 for 16!
This was excellent!
Super kind controllers!
Making a mental note that like you 2100 or higher over McDill!
ET
16 for 16 here. I’ve listened to the automated ATIs for years and have never thought it was Mr Creepy until today. I’ll forever think of him as that now.
16 for 16, watching these while on vacation in Portugal, looking forward to the next one…. :).
The salute your flagger gave you was fantastic and warms the heart. Thanks for the video
16 for 16, that was very friendly communication from the ATC. Sometimes the tone they give, seems GA guys are a burden to them. I understand they are busy and fast and we are slow generally. They seemed very nice. Thanks Jason.
16/16. Seeing all those planes is just one more good reason to fly. Too pretty and not viewed by just anyone. Thanks, Jason.
16 for 16 thank you and your team for all the hard work.
16 for 16! The KTPA folks seem great.
16/16 Haven't landed in B airspace in 15+ years. Great controllers!
16/16 love these real world flying videos!
16/16: another hazard of intersection takeoff at a large airport is being next to the point of touchdown or rotation of the large Jets, and just slightly downwind. Their wingtip vortices can flip a small airplane over.

16/16! Lots for you to manage in this video, you really showed the importance of staying ahead of the airplane. Thanks!
This ground controller is amazing!
16 4 16!
I thought to avoid wingtip vortices you had to stay inside the bowl? Taking off after their landing spot?
16 for 16. Loving this training.
16 for 16. Brought back a lot of memories as I worked in ATC for 20 years! Thanks for the airborne view.
16 for 16! I have enjoyed this video and the previous one and learned so much!
I’m a student at a class D airport below bravo and in the special flight rules area (SFRA) of DC and have departure and approach.
I’ve never flown in bravo airspace. Departure and approach always tell us remain on course outside of bravo.
Your video was great in showing what to expect if I ever was in bravo. 16 for 16.
16-16, of course I learned something. Always learning.
All 16 so far!!! Looking forward to the 365 day safer pilot challenge...
Great lesson. Printed out the taxi diagram to follow along. Haven't flown down in Florida (I'm NY based), so this was nice. Similar Clearance/Ground/Tower/Departure sequence for Class Charlie as well.
16/16 Love watching the videos and listening to the controllers from the area I fly in most. KSRQ home base
16 of 16. Excellent lesson on Class B radio calls and being ahead of things.
Good video. Just a tip: Not a fan of the iPad scratchpad for clearances. Anything but the most simple ones won’t work out, and then you will have to ask them to read it again while you dig out a pencil and paper.
Loving this as a pilot who moved from KLVK to KSRQ it's cool to hear the new local frequencies and see the new local sights while learning!
Tip: Ailerons right-left, elevator up-down, is not doing a complete control check. "Box" the controls, that checks all the corners.
16 of 16! Great video, very informative, so far I’ve only flown in a Charlie apart from my home airports delta
16/16 cool experience, flying out of that Bravo!
16 for 16. Good refresher.
16 for 16, enjoying this series…and this section on understanding Class B arrivals and departures is excellent
another great sequence, like that rolling runup checklist use
16 for 16, Jason. Enjoying each one and learning along the way. Looks like a beautiful sunset flight leaving Tampa.
perfect read backs and communications! to the point minus the filler words lol Great video series! 16/16
16 for 16. Thanks for another informational video!

16 of 16. Interesting to learn...still plan to stay clear when I can! :)
16 of 16 Man you make that look easy!!
Great video. I was always taught that when taxiing, 100% of your attention should be on taxiing. I was surprised you took out a checklist and did some run up procedures while taxiing.
16 of 16!! That was more like my class C FAT on a quite day!! Super chill!! Come to LAX and do a video😅 Thanks Jason!!
16/16!!! I don't know if I'll ever do this in my C172 but it's good to know the process.
16 for 16! We have a Bravo airport not far from our local airport. I hope to fly in and out of there one day.
This was the most "anxious" I've seen you. You were definitely dialed in -- as you should be at a busy Class B. Great video! 16/16
16 for 16, Thanks Jason!
16 of 16. These are fantastic! Thanks so much!
16/16
Love the long taxi!
16/16! Consistently the Best Instruction on the internet!
22 for 22! Like to think I'm a good listener hahaha! Thanks Jason!
fab videos, as a student pilot in the UK its interesting to hear the different radio calls and terms used in the US.
16 for 16! Another great lesson! Thank you!!
16 for 16, and _loving_ it. This video reminded me of my night x-country from KSEE to KSNA. It was my first time landing and taking off from a Class Charlie airport. What a blast that was! Jason, these videos are _so_ valuable! Thank you, and be blessed. ❤
16 / 16. Good experience very similar to class C. Never flown into Class B. However if I ever do I will re-watch this video...Thanks.
16 of 16! This was a very informative video! Thanks!!
16 for 16 and loving it!
16-16 guess we will see you landing in Miami tomorrow. Can’t wait!
16 for 16!! Flown over and into KTPA a few times! Great controllers and a beautiful sky 🥹✨
16 for 16! Good controllers make all the difference. Here at KTUS the controllers are great. And we have lots of military traffic.

Don't be afraid to fly in / out of Class B & C
16-16. This is favorite of the series so far. Thanks Jason!
16/16. I seldom used intersection takeoffs. Good reminder to use all of the runway.
16 for 16!😊
Thank you 🙏🏻
16 for 16, good stuff. Personally I would hold off all run up items till the end of the taxiways. Just like using all of the runway, I stay eyes out when taxing and doing run up items in order to avoid missing one. That was my primacy kicking in and I don’t have your level of experience.
Great video, Jason! I learned a lot. Still, I felt like I was watching someone ride a moped on the interstate!
Playing catch up. The casual controllers are cool. It’s the same at KMSY. Very casual and relaxed controllers even though it’s class B.
16 for 16, Jason! Awesome job on the Bravo departure. I also try to avoid intersection departures. Even in my RV-7A where I can lift off in a thousand feet - it's always nice to have runway in front of you rather than behind you.

16 for 16! I avoid intersections departures but I have one airport that is always insistent.
Best in the business!

16/16 Bravo again!!!
Good Snowy morning to ya Jason . 16/16yr. 2
16/16 I train at class C in NY this is such a great video
16/16. Departing a bravo can hurt a bit. Once in a helicopter, clearance told us to startup and wait for departure. we sat on the ramp with engine running for 30 min before they let us depart.
16 for 16
Love it !!!!
