Having "grown up" with steam gauges, paper charts and having to do all sorts of mental calculations in my head, I am constantly amazed by the advances in Avionics and the ease and efficiency of using them, for example VNAV as in this video. Engine handling likewise is truly 21st century... and yet, that PT6A up front is essentially the same engine that flew way back in 1961. :)
great to see you back in the air, Steveo. thank you for explaining the procedures while we are flying with you. I always get confuse in my Sim between FLC and VNV I now recognise the difference. Greetings from Australia.
Most of my adult life I have been pretty much terrified of plane travel. Especially jet planes (for some reason prop planes less so. Dunno why?). Watching your channel over the last several years has pretty much eliminated that fear. Just the soothing way you explain every step and action makes me feel more secure. It's honestly changed my life. Plus, it's just entertaining as hell to watch and listen to you : )
We are headed down to the Sun N Fun with our 14 y/o nephew. We are both very thankful for your video's. I told him last year to start watching your video's to learn how to talk to ATC. Thanks to you he has good confidence and professionalism on the radio's now and is on a good head start towards his aviation career. Keep the video's coming and he's hoping to meet you in person next week.
Good Day. Excellent Flight & Commentary as always. I love that you not only give a verbal description of what you are doing with the instruments, but the close up videos of what is actually going on. Safe Travels & Best Regards.
You rock man! I used to follow you a couple years ago and figured I'd check on your channel and watch the most recent video. I'm glad to see that your still making videos. Thank you for all you do.
Great seeing you back on U-Tube and going through your whole flight again. Had one flight in the TBM 930 and loved it. Hope to see more videos. Capt Ben
Thanks for the video Steveo - I'm still not use to 949 Bravo Zulu - but I am warming to it. She is a beautiful plane for sure - hopefully she will remain bullet hole free!
Great video and narration! Takes me back a bit to my days flying an F90 (40 years ago!) Loved the PT6 series simplicity and reliability. I'd like to be younger to do it again!
Thanks to your videos, I've learned how to start the Black Square TBM on MSFS. Thank you for making it so straightforward as if I'm able to buy my own TBM 850 to fly one day 😅 fly safe always.
Thanks Steveo! OMG, The new 940 is the best looking girl on the ramp!! Really like the paint, and love that new 5 blade prop!! There was 1 thing I didn't recognize on the G3000, but I can't remember what it was. LOL Next one. Thanks for the video! --gary
Flying VFR with flight following in south Florida was a challenge for this old man. I’m used to flying in Western NC. Whereit’s quite and no where near the traffic. I swear, the frequency was so busy I couldn’t get a word in. Traffic around Daytona was insane. Had to go offshore to avoid.
Love, love your videos, and the TBM. Did I notice that the TBM pilot's window was 1/2 way open at start up. If so, that capability is new to me. Once the plane was in motion it was closed. Does it close automatically?
Hope everyone is okay. I sure like your channel i will never be able to learn to fly but man you are professional and i feel like im in the back seat be safe my friend
Suuks to be you! lol. No hating or jealousy!!! You have earned all of this! TH-cam is the icing on top of it for you and the rest of us who enjoy you sharing the life with us! This TBM is just amazing! Talk about SMOOTH flying!
I don’t know I really like the steam juice. It looks super more interesting you are wondering always with this type of technology. You know what to expect.
Your flights over the vast ocean always make me think of how difficult it would have been for the explorers on slow sail ships discovering all of these islands.
I live just a mile or so north of KLAL....I'll have to visit this year to say hello to you, Stevie and Max instead of just watching the T-birds fly over my house.
Great video Steveo.. always love the breakouts from and through the clouds ..Seems like you’re loving flying this TBM 940.. very sweet plane ..Looking forward to your next video..will u be at EAA Oshkosh??
Little late to this video, but as a long time fan I'm extremely happy to see you back in a TBM in the Bahamas Steve-O. 👍👌
The TBM 940 is the best looking single-engine turboprop in my opinion! 🤩🙌🏾✈️
Excellent, as always, Steveo! Your flight management skills are first-class.
Bravo Steveo....so glad you're back in the left seat.....with an even BETTER TBM
Daher makes such a beautiful aircraft, the specs on all the tbm models are absolute perfection.
Every time I watch one of Steveo's videos I have to jump into MSFS2020 and fly my TBM. Gonna go flyin', see ya!
Man what a beautiful bird stevo !!!!
Steveo, Out of curiosity, when you do a pre-flight brief with your passengers do you inform them of the "TBM 940 HomeSafe" feature and how it works?

Really? Hard to believe. But, the more things change, the more they stay the same?
Wow! Just did a quick dive into the literature, and that is an amazing engine! Canada strikes again, eh?
37 yr Pratt guy, that engine made us and continues to pay the bills for development of all our other engines .🏍️🇨🇦
I really love the look of that aircraft!
Same here! 🙌🏾
great to see you back in the air, Steveo. thank you for explaining the procedures while we are flying with you. I always get confuse in my Sim between FLC and VNV I now recognise the difference. Greetings from Australia.
Thanks for the new video Steveo, great to have you back!
Stop stroking his ego and talk about the flight!

It's neat seeing the glass cockpit. I worked assembly for a while and have seen these at the component level. Nice flight.
Can it get much better than that? Gorgeous
Good Day. Excellent Flight & Commentary as always. I love that you not only give a verbal description of what you are doing with the instruments, but the close up videos of what is actually going on. Safe Travels & Best Regards.
Another great flight!. Was I hearing things or did I hear an aircraft at the 21 minute mark call sign Whiskey Tango Foxtrot? lol...
You did, it sounds like Osama. He flies a Phenom 300 C-FWTF he's done a few flights with Flight Chops
You rock man! I used to follow you a couple years ago and figured I'd check on your channel and watch the most recent video. I'm glad to see that your still making videos. Thank you for all you do.
GREAT flight Steveo. N851TB was a beautiful plane but THIS one, boy oh boy howdy, what a dream! !! !!!
That certainly is a handsome aircraft. Glad to be back in the air with you, Steveo!
Thank you, Sir. Great video as usual!!!
Always love flying with you Stevo! Thanks for doing such a great job of explaining what you are doing and why! It helps a lot.
Great seeing you back on U-Tube and going through your whole flight again. Had one flight in the TBM 930 and loved it. Hope to see more videos. Capt Ben
Nice video once again Steveo! Love how you manage flight to always stay ahead of the aircraft.
nice to see the ground crew let you film with them to get those cool shots, thanks
Another beautiful south Florida landing. 👍🏼
It's nice watching you stay ahead of the fight with the new avionics
Great flight! Thanks for taking us along ✈️🤩See you at Sun ‘n Fun!
Thanks for the video Steveo - I'm still not use to 949 Bravo Zulu - but I am warming to it. She is a beautiful plane for sure - hopefully she will remain bullet hole free!
Love the 940. What an aircraft.
cadillac of a ship..great vid Steveo
So happy to see you on a mission. I hope the more I see will come again. Onward 🌈 to more please.
Steveo - it is good to see you doing more content. Hopefully, you can make OSH this year with starting a new job.
Really appreciate your post. I can never be a pilot after Covid did a number on me. But can see skies through your lens.
Damn covid......I feel your pain brother......
Such an agressive sky owning piece of art !
You lucked out Steve. You managed to keep the same job but with an even nicer airplane. Not that the 850 was a bad aircraft.
Great video and narration! Takes me back a bit to my days flying an F90 (40 years ago!) Loved the PT6 series simplicity and reliability. I'd like to be younger to do it again!
Thanks to your videos, I've learned how to start the Black Square TBM on MSFS. Thank you for making it so straightforward as if I'm able to buy my own TBM 850 to fly one day 😅 fly safe always.
I have to get to Sun N Fun at least once while I am living here in Florida. It is about a 3 hour drive for me from where I am in SW Florida.
Great flight video. Nice to see a pilot thank the ground crew. Well done mate.
I’m just watching this on 3/26 and I can’t wait to see your next plane and new adventure!
That is one beautiful plane, and great pictures, excellent video angles. Nice
It’s so nice to ride with you again and see you doing what you love.
Hello from Minnesota! We just completed that flight! Fun to see it on your channel!
Hello Steveo, following you from France. I love your videos. Keep it up
Thanks Steveo! OMG, The new 940 is the best looking girl on the ramp!! Really like the paint, and love that new 5 blade prop!! There was 1 thing I didn't recognize on the G3000, but I can't remember what it was. LOL Next one. Thanks for the video! --gary
You need to visit Andros. Plenty to do on the island. I lived on Mangrove Cay for 25 years. Great video
Beautiful aircraft and safe pilot. Thanks
Steveo, good to be flying with you again.🎉
Excellent views and commentary. Maybe I’ll pop over to say hello at the Sun N Fun meetup. New to IFR flying and loving it.
Another fun vid, thanx Stevo.
Can't wait for your summer videos where all of the wx fun begins in South FL
Magic Steveo. Stay well
Hey. Nice to see you back Stevo, 940 is tremendous aircraft.
Great to see you up up and away...
Flying VFR with flight following in south Florida was a challenge for this old man. I’m used to flying in Western NC. Whereit’s quite and no where near the traffic.
I swear, the frequency was so busy I couldn’t get a word in.
Traffic around Daytona was insane. Had to go offshore to avoid.
Thanks for sharing another great vlog! Is there a general rule of thumb when to with the inertial separator off and on again?
flying over to sun'nfun , this years US airshow event . flying in from Norway
YO SteveO ! Another GREAT VID ! Love that 940 !!
I watched this landing from my house a couple weeks ago and wondered if it was you in the TBM.
Thanks for sharing, Steveo! I enjoy those Bahamas flights, I dig the G3000 technology as well...😊
Love, love your videos, and the TBM.
Did I notice that the TBM pilot's window was 1/2 way open at start up. If so, that capability is new to me. Once the plane was in motion it was closed. Does it close automatically?
Great video and great flight SteveO! I think we got to ride along for pretty much the entire flight, always a treat. Hope to see you at Sun N Fun!
I will give you free rides in my London black taxi if can jump aboard that cool jet! Great vid
Another great video Steve. Hope to meet you at Sun and Fun.
Hope everyone is okay. I sure like your channel i will never be able to learn to fly but man you are professional and i feel like im in the back seat be safe my friend
Why won’t you able to learn to fly?
Thanks for another virtual vacation
Man, the G3000's are amazing glass!
Suuks to be you! lol. No hating or jealousy!!! You have earned all of this! TH-cam is the icing on top of it for you and the rest of us who enjoy you sharing the life with us! This TBM is just amazing! Talk about SMOOTH flying!
amazing aircraft thanks for sharing , safe travels !
So glad too see you again ❤
The new bird is beautiful brother. Good to see you back in the skies where you belong Steveo! Cheers 😎
As usual a great video by the great TBM pilot Steveo1kinevo. Safe travels.
I don’t know I really like the steam juice. It looks super more interesting you are wondering always with this type of technology. You know what to expect.
ynow what would be interesting is for Steve to be a test pilot at the TBM Factory
Just watched back to USA video. Really appreciated close ups of avionics screens. Great video. SJ
Your flights over the vast ocean always make me think of how difficult it would have been for the explorers on slow sail ships discovering all of these islands.
Enjoy your flying videos. Any plans to attend the 2024 SUN n FUN & which days? Hope to see you there. Aloha! Pilot Phil✈️
Have a great weekend Steve!✌️😎🇺🇸
Lovely flight Steveo
Great color scheme on BZ!
Love your videos SteveO..(would enjoy your thoughts on the Truckee TBM 960 crash..)
Was in the Coast Guard, flies single engine to the Bahamas, afraid of sharks 😂🤣🤣 I love it!
Mate, time to update your cover image on the channel! Great stuff!
Love your content pal so relaxing ...cheers from across the pond 😊
I live just a mile or so north of KLAL....I'll have to visit this year to say hello to you, Stevie and Max instead of just watching the T-birds fly over my house.
Another great video, really y enjoy flying with you.
Great flying as always Steve that new TBM 940 is one beautiful bird to fly!

I was wondering if you would have to go through another start cycle after clearing customs. Thanks for filming the tow.
Thanks for the deadhead. I was having too much fun in the Bahamas. It was time to go. LOL!
Another awesome and educational video Steveo. Thanks!! 👍✈️
Thanks Steve for making a stressful day seem easy. Have a great day.
