Really embracing that Texas lifestyle with the pickup truck👍
Driving in the UK will never be the same for him again after traversing America's highways in our big trucks.
@@ESUSAMEXThe M25 did feel small when I came back from Colorado
@@ESUSAMEXHe probably get into a cheap public metro and save the money for flying some more. 😅
@@charisma-hornum-fries Public transportation isn't really a thing in many parts of the USA. In the middle of big cities, it works, but in the suburbs you need a vehicle to get around. Most of the USA is rural.
Fair play to you Noel, from your career in IT to taking a punt on SCAT airlines and starting a TH-cam channel to the life you’ve created for you family now. Inspiring 👏👏
Thank you!
Lets recap:
Truck ✅
Loves HEB ✅
Loves Buc'ees ✅
Noel is working for his Texas citizenship card! 🤣
I'm working on it 😂
@@FlyWithNoelPhilipsAs someone who has lived in Texas my whole life, I can say you’ve officially passed the test! 😅👍
@@FlyWithNoelPhilipsonly thing you need is a supply of guns and you earn your citizenship card for tx
I've been to that Buc ee's before, last I heard it had the World's biggest car wash.. My closest Buc ee's which is New Braunfels was the world biggest convenience store until a couple of months ago until they opened a bigger bu cees in TN.
...and loves brisket.
Can’t believe you didn’t talk about the main thing which makes Bucees stand out from the rest besides the cheap gas.. The CLEANEST bathrooms, of which they advertise 100miles out with “you can hold it” signs!
Surely should of been a loo review opportunity 🤣
It's 110 degrees! Switch to Fahrenheit so you can say it's triple digit heat!
The Daily Mail effect! Hot is F, cold is C!
@@FlyWithNoelPhilipsHot *as* F should cover it in TX 😉😆
Great video. I’m reliving my stint in Colorado. A friend made a smoker from an old military engine case and it was the best I’ve ever had.
Might want to wear a helmet on that scooter! I’ve fallen off mine enough times to tell me it’s a necessity.
Noel - another great video. Never a dull moment in or out of Hooks. Great review of Buc-ees! Cleanest bathrooms on any Texas road trip!
Talk about laugh flying to grab breakfast.
What a magnificent day to fly
This is the first of your piloting vlogs Ive seen as Ive only just subscribed and I love it
Can't wait to see your flying experiences Noel
Happy Landings
Thank you! Appreciate it!
The voice of ATC has to be the default voice for anywhere. I swear I hear that voice everytime I watch any flight videos 😁😁
Another v informative and enjoyable report. Thanks !!!
Welcome to Texas Noel.... You will find that no matter if you are in a plane, rocket, tank or whatever.... everything takes a backseat to a pickup truck!!!!!
Noel you are such a fantastic man, thanks for this video and my regards to your lovely family
love it Noel, Great vid!
Thanks a lot Noel! That brisket sandwich looked so good and made me hungry! Now I have run and get one from Buccees up here in Denton!
Love Buc-ee’s! Come fly to St Augustine airport here in Florida. We have one here at World Golf Village!
The stadium at 13:58 is the Berry Center… the most expensive high school football stadium in Texas.. so cool to see my neck of the woods from the air!
Awesome video! You're having so much fun, and the views are amazing. My mouth watered watching you eat that brisket, so jealous. Texas has so many wonderful things like barbecue, TexMex food, etc. The next time I get back to Texas, I'm gonna indulge in some brisket. Never been to Buc'ees, gotta get there. All that jerky, OMG! Couldn't live there though. I hate hot weather, is why I live in da frozen tundra of Wisconsin. I can't imagine what you all are going through with the heat. But it looks like you're rocking it.
Great video Noel your videos are always exciting to watch.
Nice short flight to Houston Executive. No loo review needed at Buc -ee’s as they have the cleanest bathrooms anywhere. Thanks for sharing your journey.
There is a place near me (here in Queensland, Australia) that does amazing Texas style smoked beef brisket and I agree that it is awesome food (given the choice between smoked beef brisket from this place or a good bit of steak at a comparable price point from a pub or something, I would choose the brisket every time)
As usual, I enjoyed your video and really enjoyed visiting with you and Rachel at Airventure. Stay cool!
Brisket on the board!! 😀 They have them here now in Florida and when ever we’re near one it’s a must stop!
Hooks Airport in Tomball? 20 years ago that whole area was COUNTRY. I did a LOT of work around there. It was all country 2 lane back roads. Now its all built up with a huge freeway going right through the area. And that's about 6 miles on a scooter that Buc-cee's lol.
The off road on the scooter looked a bit wild! Wouldn't do that here in South Africa.. great video, look forward to your next adventure mission!
Buc-ees is a magical place. It reminds me of road trips we'd take, my father and I.
Virginia native here - We went to Buccee's for the first time this summer with my wife's family from Lithuania - it was an experience! lol - Coming from florida, back to Virginia we hit the Bucee's in North Carolina, and WOW! CCCCCCCCCrazy! And to experience it with Lithuanians here for a summer holiday was even better! The looks on our faces as to how huge the palce was, but they sure were the cheapest gas around! (great food, too!!)
Great video, and looked like a textbook landing. Looked like that FBO had C-check facility or an engine shop. Good Cessna mx and maintenance there?
Just flew a plane to the garage for a bit o brekkie, but a bit of a woooss on a scooter 😂. I love it! Tremendous
I've visited a Buc'ees in Tennessee, and thought it was amazing.
Well, you should’ve come to the largest true buccees, here in New Braunfels, TX- next time head on over to our airport, also very close to the buccees.
KTME and that Buc'ees is just down the road from my house. KELA has a really good BBQ spot near by and KLBX has a good restaurant on the field.
@Fly With Noel Philips, Do you ever plan of flying back in Europe and the UK when you return there for a trip?
That was COOL Noel on a hot day. Love the scooter and the novel idea for the video. BTW keep safe with scooter batteries as some brands have caused fires, but your scooter looks like a high quality one so hopefully no problems. Keep these great videos coming. Greeting from Oz.
I thought that was the chargers?
Lithium ion batteries over a certain size aren’t even allowed on commercial jets as a passenger. I’ve tried to find guidance from the FAA for private aircraft.
Nice machine .great food
Buc-ees has made it to SC. I haven't gotten to go yet but I am planning on going. What a fun day. Be careful on your scooter. You are not required to wear a helmet? Thanks for the video.
Great video I loved it.
Noel, have you considered a Van’s RV? Great series of planes from what I understand.
I didn't know you are a pilot too Noel. Wow. Cool.
Buccees is awesome. Always snag beef jerky and pickled green beans.😊
I can't believe you took that scooter all the way from Houston Exec! You went right by my neighborhood, Cane Island.
Love the Francis moment 😂😂
Next Saturday evening you should fly up over College Station and get some shots of the chaos that is college football.
I was very confused, in Scotland we call a betting shop/ bookmakers a bookies😂 great vid mate
Use to be more grass landing fields up to about 2001. I think the changes kind of forced them to close.
Putting the ‘scoot’ in Boot Scootin’ Boogie 🤠
I love it. Noel is full on now. USA good. Texas hell yeah. Truck but of course.
I would love to fly with you once Noel! Maybe ince I finish up CFI 😂
Your pronouncing it book-ees instead of buck-ees has me thinking of Hyacinth Bucket for some reason. 🤔😄
Another great video - need to move to the States and renew my US PPL!!
Noel-are you now living in the Houston Area? I just watched your Buc-ees video!
I was at Hooks yesterday & saw N908VA looking a little worse for wear 😞 is it salvageable?!
It's not looking good. Removed from the fleet at United and on the grapevine I've heard it's not coming back. Thankfully the pilot was OK.
Excellent stuff Noel! I loved the video! Also what source do you use for your music in your videos and what’s the song title at the beginning of the video! 😁
Always love seeing you fly especially that gorgeous Cessna 182 Skylane! Also FLYING TO BUC-EES does it get any more Texas vibe or cool! 😎 🤩 I love Buc-ee’s especially the bucee beaver 🦫 😂🎉 Also since I visited my first Buc-ee’s ever a few months ago I can agree with that, I mean you know it’s big but you truly have to see one to believe it! 😮
Can’t wait to visit Houston someday and fly with you my friend!
Cheers 🥂
Love it great stuff! 🎉✈️
Thank you! I use Epidemic Sound. First track is called City of Mine - Snake City.
@@FlyWithNoelPhilipsExcellent I love it and that C182 and the scooter looks epic too! Will you be at Oshkosh this year I’d guess so based on your shirt? 🤔
Hope to meet you there sometime! 😅
Noel, I would love to see a video about your journey to getting your pilots licence. As a healthcare worker , working on the front line during covid, I realised that I didn't have any real hobbies other than cooking. It's my dream to get a PPL.
Beaver Nuggets!!! 👍🏻
What did you do with the scooter while you were in Bucees? That’s an expensive bit of kit to leave lying around!
Locked it in a corner of the car park :)
That's the emptiest baggage compartment of a rental plane I've seen! (At my flight school, there was usually a small step-ladder, a milk crate with several quarts of oil, cleaning supplies, rags, the fuel strainer and fuel tank straw, a set of chocks, a tow bar, and a host of other miscellaneous nonsense.)
Also, the place where I rent doesn't allow operations on grass (or otherwise non-paved) runways. 😔
Edit: I just got to the point in the video where Noel mentions his flight school has the same rules.
Can't believe you left your scooter and it was still there when you came back, here in Australia it probably would have gone missing in action!
I believe this is how it originally was envisioned decades ago; everybody flying to their destinations more or less. There was also a youtuber who went to the Mac Donalds with his paramotor. I only miss the 'Loo Review".
I thought you were going to place a bet at the bookies.
A Brit is a Texan sized pick-up truck LOL
its very neat going in that store for the first time they have spread all over the southeast now not just texas
one thing i would put on the video at the end or beginning
if u plan to do these flying vlogs is "this video is edited for time and content" Premier one driver and several others got FISDO'ED by idiots on the internet. Claiming they didnt do clearing turns or called clear of a runway cause they ran the audio track before exiting that they were clear and the video showed them just starting to turn off
I’ve flown into that one
Now fly to Wisconsin and check out the world's biggest Kwik trip!!
take a shot every time Noel says Buc-Ee's
You are supposed to fly OVER the trees. Buc-ees is greatness!
so tell me Noel, I know you can't fly the Cirrus at the mo but which do you now prefer? The 182 or the cirrus?
I prefer the Cirrus, without a doubt. Actually now I can't fly the 182 for a bit either as it was just damaged in an accident (all occupants OK). So looks like I'm back in the Cirrus soon anyway.
@@FlyWithNoelPhilips I did thank that you'd prefer the Cirrus but thought I'd ask anyway.
What is the reasoning behind the club not allowing landing a grass strips?
Hope you get the cirrus back on the line soon 👍
It’s sucks that us truck drivers can’t enter bucees
I'm in Texas and just know the closest Buckee's to me is 175 miles for me so I'm quite mad you are eating that and I'm not 😂😂
@Noel we missed the loo review
During my first visit to a filling station in the US, I said to the assistant that I couldn't work out how to put petrol in my tank. We had a bit of a communication problem!
Be careful, Noel. Riding that scooter under those trees will mess up your hair.
I just came back from Houston about two months ago, and my last destination was buc'ees I'm not gonna lie I spent about $70 dollars.
Love Buckees……….
It says this plane suffered substantial damage on landing a few days ago. I hope you (or Mr Kingsley) are okay!!!
Thank you it wasn't me. It was a guy renting it, nosegear collapsed and damaged the wing too. Occupants all OK but 8VA is out of action for some time now. Back to the SR20 I guess 😂
@@FlyWithNoelPhilipsoh no!!!!! How’s the price difference between the 182 and sr20/2?
I’m I the only person who didn’t know Noel could fly a plane ? How cool is this guy.
Glad no one stole your scooter.
Hello again, still going through your library and I have to say the music bed is an awful idea. Imagine having that playing when you're trying to listen to ATC while flying an RNAV. It adds nothing and just makes me want to find an alternative... But only after you get to Buc-ee's. You should get a helmet and a surfer-stance if you're going to haul-ass on that scooter. Cheers
Not Bookies Noel, Buckees😊Love ya anyway
8:51 (where i left off)
Stumbled across a Buckees by mistake near Daytona Beach to charge up a Tesla. Had no idea what it was, very odd and very American.
So that's why people have private planes? To do the same silly stuff the rest of us do with cars?
What happened to the Cirrus?
It’s having a new engine fitted. Hoping it’s back soon!
Where is your helmet when riding that thing? You are a Texan already for sure.
Why don't you drive down to the Texas City Buc-ee's so you can tour the refineries and sight of the Texas City explosion? Throw in an illegal game room, a gun shop, a western wear store and Whataburger's for a complete experience.
There’s probably an obvious answer to this, but why does it look like you’re using the wrong seatbelt? In the ceiling it looks like you should use the other one. Is there a reason for how it works? Does it matter?
Yes the 182 is pretty strange, they are sort of crossed over. Not sure why, sorry!
Too many of them burgers, you'll soon look like a natural American
I’ll help you out since I know you are still working on your Texas accent….Buc-ees is actually pronounced Buck-ees. Book-ees are the guys that take your money at a horse racing track! 🤠
I don’t think it is pronounced bookies. I think it is buckies, buck as in male deer. But you are English so I will cut you some slack. 😊
Haha it’s that North of England accent and what it does it to the u sound.
This video was brought to you by.........
Lol "bookies".... it's "buck-ees"
Worlds biggest gas station is in Iowa
i really do enjoy these vids , but boy do i miss Sam in these .
Working on it! It's been tough as I usually fly in the week while he's at school, and spend school hols at home with both kids. Planning on Sam being back in the vids again very soon.
@@FlyWithNoelPhilips i cant wait , as you proberly know i only tolerate you just to see sam the main star of the show 🤭
lol he says bookies..
Buc-ee's is Ok to see once or to stop for a clean toilet, but the prices aren't great. Leave it to the tourists.
😳 Promo SM
Oh look a petrol station with 100 pumps. How very 1970s
No idea why anyone in 2023 would buy a new pick up over an electric car like a model Y. I just dont get it
Some people like to drive more than a 200 miles at a time 😅
@@FlyWithNoelPhilips silly argument,
1/ it’s more like 250/300 miles in most modern electric cars, dont believe the media
2/ your bladder will give way long before the car needs charging, at which point a 20 min break results in a nearly fully charged car.
@@StefanWolves2013 yea, but some ppl just like trucks more. Plus I’m pretty sure that they can carry much more than any electric car can (or electric truck idk) And ppl have their own opinions about cars. (some like trucks more, some electric cars) So it’s fine if u like electric cars more, but ppl also like trucks too.
@@anad6950 yeah i get that, but i’ve seen him make comments about Y would you buy a Model Y instead of a pick up. It’s not a pick up competitor !
Use a helmet
Buccees discriminates against truck drivers…..just saying …
You’ve got
Love’s. Pipe down.
Noel, my friend, it's pronounced "buck-ee's." Or is that your accent? By the way, the views of your big tall ass on that scooter was worth the price of admission...LOL!
