One of your best videos. I worked in Manhattan for 25 years, midtown and downtown. I have not been there since 9/11; just can’t bring myself to return. Your video brought back a lot of fond memories of a time gone by. Thank you, great filming. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family, and all of your subscribers.
Beautiful labor of love filming and editing this amazing video! Thanks for sharing your love of family and the importance of making memories with them. Lastly, thanks for taking the time to pay respects to my fallen Brothers and Sisters at the 9-11 memorial. Merry Christmas to you and yours!
How could you not like a video like this? You are not only a mentor pilot but also a mentor dad. Thank you for sharing. It was so much fun to watch every minute of it.
Awesome Niko! Your daughter is growing up fast! Great to see the wonderful family dynamics. Thank you for your wife and Zoey allowing you to share them with us a little. Appreciate it! My wife and I have two grown up daughters. Daughters are special… we are lucky..
What a spectacular trip! The aerial views are always awesome, especially at night! Seeing New York as you and your family saw it was the best! It was all amazing to see! It was great to see your beautiful family enjoying and taking everything in! Thank you for sharing some of your family time! I really enjoyed it!
Niko, I know this video was posted over a year ago, but it's timeless in that it is a very heartwarming. It's quite evident you're a great husband, Dad and (of course) pilot. there's nothing like flying with loved ones. Double thumbs up for this video, I enjoyed every second. 👍👍
I really enjoy watching you and your family in my home town of NYC. Make me appreciate NYC more. Thank you Niko for sharing. One of your greatest work.
That’s what flying is all about. Going to new places and having new experiences. A beautiful family and an adventure to remember for life. Thank you, Niko!
Niko I’m a Longshoreman with ILA 1422 and because we have the deepest port on the east coast, we unload ships a lot faster than Savannah they have rerouted some of those vessels to us, we work 24/7.
Currently sitting at BWI laughing out loud at your weight and balance conundrum 🤣🤣🤣🤣! You know your first visit to Lady Liberty is still my favorite video. How awesome was it to share that experience with your girls this time!? Man Niko you never disappoint! Thank you for sharing and Happy Holidays to you and your family!!!
Thanks for sharing! I got my PPL and HP/complex endorsements last year, took the plunge and bought a plane, and took my own family on our first spur-of-the-moment 500+ mile trip just last week. Incredible experience to be able to just do this. I don't think it will ever get old. I am actively working on my IR right now and stumbled on your older video of your IFR checkride, which is one of the coolest (and most courageous) aviation videos I have ever seen. Thanks for the awesome content.
Just wanted to tell you thank you. I always enjoy your VLOG because you always tend to be real. This one hit me square in the heart. I don't have the best holidays because most of my loved ones are gone but my Thanksgiving, although almost a month ago just got much better tonight by watching what you and your Family shared with all to see. You did not have to or need to but you did. To see the joy in your daughter and wife's eyes was priceless to me and I am sure made your heart swell. I guess that I want you to know that you affect a lot of people in different ways and once again, Thank You! Brent
Lived in NY for 10 years. Haven’t been there since Covid started, can’t wait to go back. Happy you enjoyed it with your family. I certainly did with mine, and now that the kids are gone, I still have thousands of pictures and dozens of videos to remind me the good days. You are doing the right thing my friend, creating memories for all, but most importantly for your daughter. Happy holidays to you all.
I am going to show my wife this video. She is all about family--especially now that we gave grand-kids scattered around the country. She will not let me get a pilots license. This may have the ompa I need to topple the last domino. Well done-family #1-good priorites. You may have helped a guy pursue another dream.
My vacation to New York with my brother was one of the most memorable vacations I've been on. He was in Long Island for his 2 weeks of annual Navy reserve training and invited me to join him in New York for the weekend. I think that one thing that made it most enjoyable for me is not being tethered to a car and just traveling at a slower pace that allowed me to take in more of the city and really appreciate the experience of being in New York.
Seen them here and there before, but this time it was extra nice that you featured your gurlz so well. I feel like I've gotten to know your family much better!
I just want to say how much I enjoyed your video, Niko. Wonderful footage of NYC, lots of tasty food, and great in-flight scenes. I also appreciate the many hours that it took you to edit the camera footage. Definitely a beautiful and enjoyable video!
Time to join the airlines Niko. Thanks for this video. Loved it. I live in NYC area. Enjoyed all the places you and your family visited. "This is Livin"!
superb video editing and sound !! beautiful scenery throughout flight and of all the great sites in NYC . Truly a family getaway to remember . Makes me want to get back into flying again !!! Thanks for taking us along with you ........Discovery Park of America awaits you my friend .....KUCY ....Merry Christmas !!!!
..thanks for sharing Niko..drove my parents half the way across country out to NYC.. just before we finally moved out of the big city to L.A...and made sure they had one hell of a time there..dining out..watching Broadway plays..seeing Radio City Music Hall with the Rockettes in Rockefeller Center..watching from high atop the Empire State Building..taking the Circle Line boat ride all around Manhattan..and then showing them the new World Trade Center..and the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island ..where we had first entered the USA.. years ago..and where we all have had such a great time..
That was a wonderful tour of NY! You really nailed that x-wind landing, Niko - nice job :-). Thanks to your wife and Zoe for allowing you to share this wonderful holiday with us :-). I hope you all have a wonderful holiday season!
Love the family videos Niko! You are not only a fantastic pilot, but also a fantastic videographer. Being a NYer all my life, well, until my retirement, I truly enjoyed this holiday trip. Oh, and ESS A Bagel 👍👍👍
THANK YOU! This is general aviation. It's also some of the finest editing and some of the most humanity-rich video I've ever witnessed. Sorry, Martin Scorsese.
Thanks for sharing your family trip to NYC. Great flights . Clear air/ high pressure but strong headwinds going north always the trade off. Delays the bathroom breaks, but at least you don’t have to dodge TB’s. Merry Christmas!
Great flight Niko and family! Awesome video! Love seeing the sights and sounds of NYC. I was raised in NY, now retired in Florida at X49. See you at Sun n fun :)
What a brilliant video Niko. Good to see all three of you back in the air. Wishing you all Happy Holidays and a fantastic new year. I cant believe how quickly Zoe is growing up. You can really see the changes. I do hope she follows in your footsteps and learns to fly one day. Be great to see the pair of you take to the skies. 👍👍 I have a son who has now started university but it only feels like yesterday we were holding his hand whilst crossing the road. Time slips away un-noticed most of the time and you wonder what happened yesterday, let alone 10 years ago. Stay safe Niko, love to all.
Fantastic Niko and Family - i originally started watching because of a fondness for flying the cirrus now i cant wait to see the Niko family adventures!
So awesome to see your wife and daughter much more involved in this video. I can remember when your daughter was exceptionally shy to be on camera. So cool to see that transformation in her and your wife to be more comfortable in front of the camera to see both of their reactions to the flight, the meals and other events that were displayed in this video. Love all the videos you’ve put together over the past I have watched.
It is amazing that one can fly across the entire United States yet feel bad when the landing is less than perfect. Not just feel bad but dwell on it for hours if not days. Been there done that. ;) Great video BTW!
Simply epic Niko, fantastic family video, looks like you all had an absolute ball! Lifetime of memories indeed! Happy Christmas to you and your family!
Hi Niko... first That was awesome. !!! enjoyed with family.... excellent video and fun... you were closed because I was about few miles away from Teterboro.... well one more thing... one of the best part is you NOT have to go to commercial airport and get that experience.. you have you own plane... thats great !!! All The Best !!! say hello to your family !!!! :)
Great great flight! I enjoyed it.
Thanks buddy. Hope all is well with AOPA Hellas

Thank you for the kind words Brent…
That was a nice flight and vacation, you ate at all the nice places. Your pretty daughter had a great experience. Thanks for letting me fly along.
What a Super video!! Thanks for letting us ride along on your family vacation!!
Best aviation video ever. Cannot find better words to describe. Thank you Nico. 30 minutes nonstop, so worth it.!!!
Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays, Niko. Thanks for all of the cool videos!
From a private pilot who hasn't flown in 15 years, your videos and trips sure give me the flying fever again. Thank you!
Living the life I hope to have soon after earning my PPL. As a native NYer - I also appreciated this video very much.
Lived in NY for 10 years. Haven’t been there since Covid started, can’t wait to go back. Happy you enjoyed it with your family.

Beautiful family, beautiful flying and beautiful scenery, thanks for sharing it all with us. Happy thanksgiving from your friends in the UK.
So much fun these kind of trips with the family! Even better to do them with the Cirrus, thanks for taking me along!
I believe your a great pilot and business man, but a great father as well. Wow Niko!
Seen them here and there before, but this time it was extra nice that you featured your gurlz so well. I feel like I've gotten to know your family much better!
The man just has it put all together. A beautiful family and to share some of his life and trip with me I am grateful. Thanks Niko.
America. No better place on Earth and you just proved it, again.
Thanks !! Been waiting for a video, and what a Great one :):) Thanks again!!
I just want to say how much I enjoyed your video, Niko. Wonderful footage of NYC, lots of tasty food, and great in-flight scenes. I also appreciate the many hours that it took you to edit the camera footage. Definitely a beautiful and enjoyable video!
Love the fact you admire the meaning of the Statue of Liberty so much. Anyone who goes to NY must see it.
Great family Holiday flight to NYC! Well done video. Your "girls" provided great commentary - change of pace from just listening to you talk.
Time to join the airlines Niko. Thanks for this video. Loved it. I live in NYC area. Enjoyed all the places you and your family visited. "This is Livin"!

I swear I love hearing your cirrus when you start up 😍😍 sounds like a hell of a lobe when it first starts

A very beautiful family living the dream. Thank you for sharing Niko.
One of your best videos ever !
I so miss NYC during the holidays! Thanks for the heartwarming video Niko! It's so nice to see a family making happy memories.
Thanks for sharing your family trip to NYC. Great flights . Clear air/ high pressure but strong headwinds going north always the trade off. Delays the bathroom breaks, but at least you don’t have to dodge TB’s. Merry Christmas!
This was simply magnificent!
Thank you all so very much.
Warm Greetings from could Norway.
Niko the Man!! niko your daughter is a natural youtuber lol looking forward to your familys adventures

Fantastic Niko and Family - i originally started watching because of a fondness for flying the cirrus now i cant wait to see the Niko family adventures!

Your daughter’s intelligent and engaging just like mom and dad. You done good. We’re on the north end of Central Park. Glad you had a nice visit.
Niko, I've seen most of your videos, and as an old pilot, this one was the best. Thank you so much.
Υπεροχο βιντεο Νικο. Your videos are amazing and always looking forward to the next one! You and your family are having the time of your lives! Sakis
Σε ευχαριστώ Σάκη
And like that SZ is helping you to create wonderful family adventures…good to see you guys enjoying as a family and Z learning the ropes…
Your videos always remind me of a love letter to general aviation, but this one will be hard to beat. Thanks for taking us along.
Niko, thank you so much for sharing your Thanksgiving with us. We surely have so much to be thankful for. Especially this year!
It is amazing that one can fly across the entire United States yet feel bad when the landing is less than perfect. Not just feel bad but dwell on it for hours if not days. Been there done that. ;) Great video BTW!
