I flew the 737 und now flying the 777, but the PC12 is still for me the ultimate flying machine. The sweet spot betweem the faster TBM9XX and dual engine Kingair 2/3XX.
Yeah it looks good this format. I liked seeing the start from cold and dark and all the necessary checks required. That's cool. Thanks!
Thanks Jose!
Loved the video of the start up procedures
I love the first person camera. I really like seeing the pilot perspective.
I Love how the footage was raw and how it was a POV
It IS an awesome airplane and I respect your piloting skills. As a pilot of 41 years, some of the flying chanels get to be a bit "more of the same." But I enjoy a few of them and yours is one. In case you're curious, I fly a 1980 Cessna 441/Conquest II out of Long Beach, CA. Just got back from San Antonio, a four hour and 15 minute flight. While the Conquest is wonderful airplane, it is a dinosaur compared to the PC12 NG.
Thanks Rob! I did one trip right seat in a 441. It’s a good airplane!
This is what I call a great video. Everything about operating and flying the aircraft rather than the talking heads some people insist on showing. Thank you.
I am not a pilot, so I probably got more out of the FPV than others. It was great to see all your actions from your point of view. Thanks
Grant. I know it takes a lot of your time to produce your videos. Thanks so much. Always enjoy riding along.
Yes, keep posting!
Love this view
POV is ok, but wouldn't want a steady diet of it. Always a pleasure flying with the pro, the Capt Grant.
Thanks David!
Yes to this format.
Yeah, head-cam format is nice.
Love the FPV and raw cut and of course love the PC-12. Thanks for the video Grant.
I liked the POV head mount perspective in this one Grant. As always, great video and thanks for all the work you put in to your channel.
That was fantastic! Appreciate the uncut view. Would enjoy seeing more! Thank you!
Like the new format
Enjoy all your videos. Angles look good and keep the interest of the viewer. Thanks for taking the time to make them.
Another great video! Thanks Grant. I love the raw format. Can't wait for the next one! Blue skies mate.
Thanks Tim!
Short but sweet and your usual excellence from beginning to end! Thanks for your continued efforts.
Thanks Randy!
PLEASE do more videos from this POV camera. I love this first person pilot view!
For us aviation geeks, seeing what happens inside the cockpit is as exiting as seeing outside! great camera angles especially the "checklist" camera where we can see the instrument panel and any interaction with the instruments/ displays. Thank you for the video.
Note you use IFR (I follow roads) like I did so many years ago. Old pilot likes your videos. God bless!
Thanks Luther! It’s a reliable navigation method!😁
That was a great ride! Love camera angle...watch a lot of flight vids, but I think this is one of the best I've ever seen...felt like I was there Thanks!
Short but sweet.. Really like this presentation.
Cool vid, sir. Kinda brought back memories of my regional 121 days in the DoJet. Thanks for sharing.
I also liked this format but also like your regular. Just keep feeding us the content 😊
Very cool, thanks for sharing this with me captain! Great to watch as I'm used to 767s, etc. Cool plane! ✈️
Thanks Bruce, glad you enjoyed it!
Love the camera views Grant. Flew many years out of 3C1 and did my check ride at Elkhart. Love your videos and thank you, as I live vicariously through you now.
Thanks Jack!
Awesome video! Would love to see more of them.
Just great. Thanks for sharing -
I like it. Content like this does wonders, to demystify aviation.
The view is good. I also enjoy the camera view behind you facing forward. Great video!
Thanks!
Nice plane. Love your videos and Narration. Thanks
Thank you for posting and keep up the good work. Grtz from EHBK!
Nice video, real operation non edited. I like this format. Thanks for share it. !!!
Awesome short flight.Beautiful photography
Thanks!
This was great. I did like the format. It felt like I was flying right seat with you! Good job!
Thanks!
love the new look
Very enjoyable format
I’m 3 min into the video and it’s almost like an aircraft startup ASMR. Definitely going to keep watching..
Another most awesome video Grant...thank you my friend!!
Thank you!
Love this format... subscribed.
This was a lot of fun, especially for us folks tooling around in 150/152s. Fly well!
Thanks Russ!
Nice, loved the POV format...
Great format, looks good!
Thanks!
Gary Schack
Liking the details. Keep up the grest work so that I can keep enjoying the flights
Thanks Gary!
Another winner Grant! Cheers!🥂👍
Thanks John!
Nailed that landing! Nice work!
Thank you sir!
Nice! Great to see the uncut version of this flight!
Thanks Jorge!
Shorttt and sweet, Grant it was interesting with the cam on your head. Liked the startup procedure wouldn't mind the preflight. Nice to see you doing well, hope the family is well also. Catch you on the next one.
Thanks Mark! They’ll have a cameo in a video coming up before long. 😁
Just found this. Great vid. I like the details/explanation of what your doing. Subscribed and going to watch more. Thanks.
Thanks!
Awesome Video Grant.
Thanks!
loved this video!
Great video ones again 👍I like this "raw" and "pov" format pretty much. The cold and dark sequence was very enjoyable. I hope to see more of this in the future. I would even like to see this unedited stuff for longer flights since I don't mind to watch 90+ minutes videos. Ok, regarding the last point, I guess there are not many crazy people like me out there who will enjoy such long unedited videos, but I definitely will. I love your content and at the end of the day, I will be happy with every video you upload.
Thanks for your great work, wish you blue skies and greetings from Switzerland 😉
Thanks!
Good job 👍
Nice TBM!
Jyst new to aviation and i must say this was my best... almost virtual test flight. Thank you
Loved it thanks for sharing
Awesome video! Cool camera angles!
Thanks Cory!
I liked the POV. Keep up the great videos!
Thanks!
It’s a great format Grant, the view is good and the camera stabilizer is working.
Thanks! I’ll have to do another one of these sometime. I don’t use any stabilization though, that’s just how smooth the Pilatus is!😁
Great video!
Thanks!
The sound of the PT6 was just graceful 👌
It’s a great sound!
So cool. The pc-12 is my favorite airplane and i live very close to where this was filmed.
That is a normal thing to do check and prepare then go !😊
the best plane I've ever had in my possession ive been leasing one for about 6 years
I love flying it and the owners love riding in it!
Excellent idea for a video, mate. Being an aviator geek myself I am a fan of seeing the pre-flight stuff, and certainly how the Pilatus works in that regard. It's a lovely machine.
I also love the noise of a good 2 stage start procedure on a turboprop haha. That engine really makes a good racket when you go into low idle, doesn't it ;)
Hope you're keeping well, sir.
Thanks Michael! It’s not the quietest bird out there, but it’s nothing compared to a Garrett! 😂
@@GrantBaker Yep the PT6 is definitely quieter haha!
I love these types of videos. with all the checks and things. You should do more if they aren't too much of an effort to make!
Thanks! I got a 360 camera recently, so there will be a 360 takeoff video coming before too long. 😁
nice…thanks for sharing
Nice video!!
Thanks!
The first person POV was a fantastic idea!
Thanks John!
What a soft touchdown !
The plane makes it easy!
We want more of it!
NIcely done, many hours sitting between PT 6 engines and it took me back to my Kingair days. Not real familiar with the Pilatus line and wondered if the avionics were Honeywell. The PFD and the bulls eye flight director display are identical to the ones in the Falcon 2000LX that I presently fly. Nice vid, fly safe!
Yessir, Honeywell Primus Apex.
Awesome thanks
I was on a tour flight on Tri-Motor in Elkhart last October 28 2022. Cool little airport.
A tri-motor flight would be a lot of fun!
love that plane :)
nice vlog!
Thanks Kai!
Woo! I'm surprised you didn't need a fuel stop!
It was tight, but we made it!🤣
Hey Grant! Nice IFR flight there (I follow roads) - US33! Just like we do in South Africa! Take care, safe flying!
Thanks Steve!
Nice video
Thanks!
PC 12 cockpits are cool 👍
Yeah they are!
Grant, love your videos! PC12 pilot here..recently Pilatus has told us to wait starting Bat1 and Bat2 15 seconds in between each other for overload. Not sure it makes a difference but we’ve been following ever since.
Thanks for the tip Landon! That’s for voltage overload to the avionics I assume? I noticed a lot of clicking on the speaker, so I started waiting until that stops (a second or two) before turning on Batt 2. I’ll add the 15 sec to my routine though.
@@GrantBaker I would assume it’s just for the batteries to figure out what’s going on. Just going off what the good ool Swiss are telling us to do!
that looks like so much fun. The mall made me think about our local legacy mall here in Shreveport Louisiana. South Park (not that one) was all but abandon then a local church bought it and gave it a second lease on life. I didn't notice when you engaged the yaw damper. I've always wondered does the yaw damper eliminate the P factor on take-off?
I enjoy your channel. thanks for sharing.
Cheers from Louisiana.
Thanks Rick! No, you want the yaw damper off for takeoff and landing. It dampens any yaw movement so it would hinder your rudder inputs. Very noticeable if you miss kicking it off for landing. You turn the YD on after raising the gear, so around 100’.
Using Flightaware I found a PC12 had just left our airport en route to west Houston. I set up an alert for when it comes back, I’ll be able to see it up close.
Love this fr fr🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹 in the house
Love this format. I'm working on my IFR and CPL right now so it's kinda helpful seeing how the pros handle some of these planes.
Thanks! Good luck with your IFR and CPL!

awesome
A nice view is one of the passenger Windows on the left side. You can mount gopro over there, filming left wing. Also avoid music! The best sound is turbopropp sound. :)
Hi Grant,
Loved the pilot's perspective but creates a vertigo effect for me while watching. Seems that I'm the only one that had this issue. Unfiltered was good. keep up the videos, I love watching!
I agree David, the movement is too fast for my preference. It was fun doing something new. Enough people seem to be liking it that I may include it in some future videos, but it isn’t going to be a regular staple. Just something to change it up a few times per year probably.
Definitely liked the raw footage. Since the Pilatus seems so exotic to me I would like to see the whole preflight
Wait til it bets warmer though...
I’ve got some preflight videos actually. One for the outside and one for the inside.
love it, you may like to try a closer angle to the displays or better a way to see what switches are being operated above. but I love the uncut style, I wish every body made videos like this. Naturally I just subscribed. keep it up sir
Thanks! I had hoped to be able to use the chest mount to show the displays better but I didn’t check the angle well enough and it ended up just the yoke. 😂
Love watching your videos and the pov is great. It would be cool if you could incorporate a pfd cam and switch between views. I love the Honeywell avionics. 🛫👍
Thanks JT! A PFD angle would be a cool addition.
i love this plane might have to buy it for my company
It’s a fantastic aircraft!
Grant, I don't believe that it is necessary for you to cross-check either the altimeter readings (on ground) or the airspeed (on takeoff) because the Honeywell Primus Apex system has comparators that automatically monitor those two indications. If there is a difference between either altimeter reading or airspeed reading between the left and right hand sides (in other words, between each half of the Apex system) you will get a visual "miscompare" alert on the affected instrument (both LH and RH PFD).
This is awesome! training up for my ATPL in Europe at the moment and I'd love to hear some advice to get a job with one of these turbo props.
Good luck with your training Sebastian! Not sure about Europe, but here in the states, there are a couple operators who fly them. Tradewind, PlaneSense, Surf Air, and Boutique are a few. Here’s a Wikipedia page that lists some around the world. Couldn’t tell you how accurate it is though. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Pilatus_PC-12_operators
I don.t know if it was on my end but the audio was really choppy and the camera on the head made it seem choppy as well and the fast pans as you were looking for traffic is a little disorienting but I loved riding along sir. Thankyou for sharing. Greg out
Hmm audio shouldn’t have been choppy. I didn’t cut any of that out. As for the head cam, that’s unfortunately unavoidable as that’s how we naturally move our heads and a reason I won’t be using that view often. I think it’s pretty cool that we don’t even notice how fast we move our heads in normal life and yet how disorienting it is to see it on a screen!
Wow ! Absolutely loved this video with this angle .Would definitely love to see more videos like this . Would also like to see how you setup the Garmin PFD for the flight.
Thanks Franco! Everything in the NG is Honeywell.
@@GrantBaker Awesome, thanks Grant. Always curios to see how the nav setup is being done on the panel. I absolutely love the PC12 , and would love it even more if I get to fly one someday. I'm a CPL Student in South Africa ( testing for my CPL single engine IFR very soon )
Good luck on the CPL Franco. Let me know how it goes!
@@GrantBaker Tanks Grant. Will do so. Is there maybe a way that I can contact you personal? I have a couple of questions that I would like to ask.
Sure! Email me at pilatusgrant@gmail.com
