- Join me on leg 1 of a full, 4 legs day, flying around the gorgeous Caribbean in the awesome PILATUS PC-12/47.
On this leg, we are going to get a VFR clearance from San Juan (TJSJ/SJU) to depart to St Maarten, Princess Juliana International Airport (TNCM/PJM/SXM). During Cruise, I will explain what the Aircraft Main Computer (EIS) is and how it works. Finally, we'll get to the gorgeous, famous St Maarten Airport and land on RWY 10 overseeing Maho Beach.
On part two we will cross the pond over to St Barthelemy (TFFJ/SBH), Subscribe and enable notifications to be notified when part 2 is live.
Feel free to ask your questions on the comment section below and I'll do my best to reply back!
Also, you might get a more expedite answer through my Instagram account so go ahead and follow me!

Great video, flying my favorite aircraft! I can only hope to fly one someday, especially down there! Awesome!
PC-12 is so cool. Thanks for the Vlog.
Thank you for sharing. Love it.
Smooth landing. Cool capt
Very nice! Great video, thank you!
Gran video como siempre. Esas tomas a lo ultimo del aeropuerto quedaron espectaculares.
Gracias! Me alegro que sea de tu agrado!!!
Hey, I just discover your channel. Its great 👍 you speak slow enough to understand everything you say and explain in the video. I’m subscribed all ready 😂
i love pc 12 there amazing air craft my dad worked on pc 12 at jeffco airport colorado but i called Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport now. he not working there now but he use too. if i had to chose any plane to fly it be the pc 12 for the new twin jet pc 24. but mainly the pc 12. keep up the great work.
Great transitions, great video, no stupid music in between, great explanations 👌🏼👌🏼 subscribed 💪🏽
Thanks KMR! Welcome!
Thanks Shamir. I really enjoy your videos. The PC-12 is my favorite airplane. An airplane that's as practical as a screwdriver with its unimproved short field capabilities, range, payload, cabin space and impressive cruise performance.
That is correct! It’s more impressive when they sequence us between heavy airliners going into JFK!!!! Thanks for watching, I’m glad you enjoy them !!
Refreshing to see a single pilot colleague run checklists. Nice trip, and professional attitude. Happy landings!
Much appreciated! I recon sometimes I cut the checklist on post-processing to save time.
Great video, very well explained. Thank you and happy flying.
Thanks Rob!!
I always enjoy watching your videos, as you continually demonstrate best practices. Checklist reviews at all stages of flight, in-flight performance charts. Also, I like the show-and-tell of various flight instruments on each flight. Stay safe on your travels.
Thank you sir !!
Good to see your PC 12 videos again.hope you're coping well despite the current situation.keep safe,god bless u!
Hi Chris! Thanks, things are rough everywhere right now! Hopefully everything goes back to normal!
What an awesome plane!
I dream of starting a flight school in the Dominican Republic
Thanks Jean!!!
Nice explaining of the EIS and very good landing!
Keep that up, I like your videos!
Thanks Burkhard!
Génial comme d’habitude ! Bonjour à Yann !
Merci beaucoup pour votre message !!!
Love the PC 12! Shamir these videos keep us fascinated and entertained during the lockdown. Gonna fly this in xplane!!
Hi Chris!!! Glad you liked it, I Know Carenado has a pretty close fit PC-12 available. Enjoy the trip on X-Plane

Gracias José!
Such an amazing quality on your videos, I really like them! By the way hi from this PPl from DR.

Hi Shamir, nice video thanks for sharing, got a stupid question, how does the toilet works on the PC-12?, is it externally serviced, does it flush, is just like a bedpan etc... thanks and safe flights!
very nice!!
Thanks Derrick!
Great flight, appreciate the detailed information on the engine display. L[king forward to next video. 👍👍👍
Thanks Mark!!
Great video Shamir, enjoyed it! As a Dutchman I’ll just say: Welcome to the Kingdom of the Netherlands Baby Sexy 😆
Thanks!!!!!
👍👍👍
how to buy that plane??
Great video as usual.
Are the ailerons and rudders interconnected? Or just the wind is slamming against the surfaces?
Yes they are!!!!
"Pretty close" on the parking! Too bad you overshot. Did they make you reposition?
I don’t think they noticed 😛😛😛😛 thanks for watching.
What a great video. Nice flying, and nice weather!
I'm curious why you flew VFR. Was there a special reason?
I'm also curious what the transition altitude is in St. Martin? (I noticed you called out Flight level 080. Did you change your alt. to 29.92 at some point?
Aloha,
John
Hi John,
Great questions! Weather was nice therefore, it is quicker to just go VFR, specially since i'm already familiar with VFR flying around the caribbean.
Transition Altitude in Juliana's airspace is 5,000 ft. Transition level is 6,500ft!!!
On descent, we go from STD ALT Setting to Local at 6,500. on climb out, we switch to STD at 5,000!
i wish to be a passenger in that
plane
Question....Why would you tell the tower ready for departure and then break out the checklist on the runway? Shouldn’t you have taken care of the take off checklist items before calling ready for departure?
Roberto Negron Air carrier heads up policy. Taxi with heads up. Checklists are ran (single pilot) when stopped. Part of the TO checklist items are performed at RW alignment.
Hi Roberto, that’s an awesome question. Our company policy requires us to perform the FINAL ITEMS checklist when cleared for takeoff. In this video, I was cleared to line up and wait, and then, eventually, to takeoff. If I were holding short, and then cleared for takeoff, it is up to me if I want to complete the checklist before I line up or after. I hope this answers your question.
Wow i just started watching ur video, and i just bought from Carenado this beautiful PC-12... finally i got it, just had an tiny test flight, what an airplane... I just saw ur garmin, it had an list of ur legs, how you able to enter these legs, i only could enter the airport code, and flying direct to, without legs. so i could flying on VFR, but i want to try on IFR, and so i have to follow these legs, but i dont know how you put the legs in the garmin, I hope you could help me with this!
Thanks for watching. Unfortunately the Garmin GPS on Flight Sim is nowhere near realistic as the real life one. I had that same issue when I used flight sim long time ago.
@@fersobe ah thanks anyway for your answer, but since i bought this beauty i really loves to fly with the PC-12, just now i will go to Porto in Portugal from LSGG Geneva, i was departed from Lelystad EHLE in The Netherlands, and flying VFR following flightplan, 20.000 ft, cruisehigh
@@fersobe But I do still have another question, what is the max, and min vref speeds for the approach of the PC-12, is that between as I seeing on the speedometer, between 85 knots and 130 knots, and what’s the ideal Vref speed? Sorry I just curious about this just in loved plane haha
What airline is this?? You hiring FO
I just noticed,no silver and blue tradewind pc12?
Not all are painted the same way! We fly leased PC-12s
Is prop RPM controlled automatically, or does the pilot adjust it?
Hi Harry, the Prop is controlled by a Prop Governor installed in the PT6-67B. There’s 2 other limiters installed that will hold the prop at a constant RPM in case the main governor fails.
@@fersobe it has a FADEC too right?
Hi Shamir,hope u are ok ! Let me ask you,are you still flying the pc 12 up to today? I want to fly mine on x plane and if I hear you're still flying,it will give motivation to do mine.also ,what are your typical flight levels between sju-pjm,pjm-sju,sju- at and back ,sju- tffj and back,and just to anguilla and back.let me know please so I can plan the flights properly. Your help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks!!!
Hi Chris, it's been couple of days since my last flight due to COVID, but things will ramp up again in few weeks. My typical flights are usually: 1. TJSJ-TFFJ and back... 2. TFFJ-TAPA- TFFJ. 3. TJSJ-TQPF and back... sometimes we do TJSJ-MBPV or MYNN. as well as MDLR and MDPC.
@@fersobe ,wow,serious island hopping great man! Thank you loads and I'm going to fly those over the weekend. That's a big help.now on to my flight planning !!
Does the ailerons react up on the rudder movement?
Hi Clifton, there’s an interlink between them that actuates the ailerons when rudder is deflected and flaps are set anywhere but 0!!!
Thanks for the info, have a safe flight
Please, position the camera so you can show a better point of view!
