  • I was able to sneak a quick flight in before the storm hit California.
    The “atmospheric river” is closing in on Southern California and I only have a few hours this morning to get a flight in before it hits. I pulled the Cessna out and took it for a quick lap around the lake before starting on a couple long
    overdue projects. I dug up some old footage to make it complete.

    The Pants are going to look great. Really nice work so far.

      Thank you! I got a lot of work done yesterday on the other one. Hopefully I can have them ready sometime next week

    If I had to do lots of sanding to complete a wheel pants project, I would put the project at the bottom of my list. They will look great installed I am excited to see the first video with those on. Thanks for the update.

      Yeah I kept putting them off. I’ve been able to make good progress. They match now. I just need to finish up the carbon fiber work on the second one and paint both of them. We are close

    Thank you for addressing this serious issue. For years I've been saying our country needs a sensible pants policy.

      Thanks dude! I was able to sneak a quick flight in today in between rain showers

    @2:37 begs the questions: When, how, and why did you go from hating flying to loving flying?

    • @alexandercoats
      @alexandercoats  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I’m not sure the exact moment I started loving flying. Around high school I started getting the itch to learn but it wasn’t until I was in my early twenties that I started really learning. Around then all I wanted to do was fly aerobatics, my desire outweighed my fear at the time I guess

    Wheel pants look great! You were talking about your first memories of flying. It brought me back to my first memories as well. Same thing, my dad always had a plane, I remember coming over the hill going to KPDK and catching the first glimpse of the planes in the tiedowns and getting so excited! It’s been forty some odd years and I still get that feeling every time I go to fly! Thanks for bringing that up, such great times flying with my dad!

      I was very fortunate to grow up around it. I still feel blessed every time I drive out to the airport and open the hangar

    How did your home and the airport come through the storm? We had a Challenger 350 up to its brakes at KVNY.
    Back in the Midwest I flew down to the bourbon capital of Kentucky KBRY and got a few samples yesterday. I missed the forecast. I said it would be VMC at arrival, it cleared 20 mins after we got there. I blamed my plane for flying too fast, it was smooth so we flew in the yellow.

      We got lucky. No flooding or any damage. Winds never got too bad. It’s just been constant rain for the past week and a half. Today we had a break for about an hour. I snuck out and filmed another video.

      Very professional and thoughtful of you. I am going to try to video more but my battery freezes. The instrument approach would have been great yesterday, we were 50 above the clouds, then through a 200 foot thick layer broke out at 800-900.
      I enjoy you videos, one they are aviation, but two, like dude, you speak Californian, like I am totally down with that, I am from SoCal, like the valley dude. I understand what you are saying. If I ever fly my Arrow out there, I will stop by. You will see a lot of the airline I worked for, we are the QS mafia of business jets.

      We are/were not allowed to film our flights, VIP pax thing.
      If I can get out past Colorado I may come out.
      I am a refugee from taxation so they may throw me in a California Gulag for tax evasion and burning leaded gasoline.
