I honestly thought you gave up on sharing your adventures. Glad I was wrong. Now I need to get some popcorn, sit back, relax, and enjoy watching your adventure.
As a pilot who got laid off during the pandemic, I lost the love for flying. Thank you for sharing this and truly inspiring me to get back into the sky once again.
Certainly you have to get back in the air.... to be up in the air has always been a dream really to become a pilot ,,, even at 41yr I still hope to take my first flight ...... Wake up and fly....
Same here. I loved my job ferrying folks in a Cessna caravan but was laid off in 2020. I own a pitts special that sat for a couple years but my dad has come around making me love flying again.
Not only did you build a BEAUTIFUL and capable airplane, and not only did you fly it across the world, and not only did you film it, but you produced a high quality documentary sharing your adventure that made me feel a range of emotions. Well done to you and all who helped. Thank you for sharing this, it is incredible and I hope to do something similar sometime in my life
Haven't seen a 2-hour video on TH-cam in a while. Not a lot can keep me at the screen for 2 hours straight, but this masterpiece... Congratulations on the journey, and thank you for inspiring us to get out of our comfort zone and explore the world. Superb!
Didn’t even know 2 hour video was possible ! It takes 2 days just to upload a video that’s 30 minutes lmao Can’t imagine a 2 hour video probably takes 2 weeks
I first came across this guy when he collaborated with Louis Cole on their round the world flight. I think there were some regrets afterwards and from what I understand they don’t keep in touch.
This brought tears of joy. The building, friendships, music, editing and foremost, the incredible flight to Oshkosh. Thank you all. Alright alright alright -
All my life I have pursued altitude. As a young boy I hiked to the summits of every mountain I saw, and as I grew, I learned to rock climb and those summits got even higher. I now fly quad copters and although they're not planes, my soul has been the most satisfied as of late. Now the internet brought me this gem of a documentary, and showed me a lifestyle I never knew existed. I am yearning to become a pilot now. To call this movie inspiring is an understatement, but I lack the words to express how inspired I really am. Thank you!
I‘m only 16 (gonna be 17 in a few months) and I’m growing more and more into an aviation enthusiast. And that’s thanks to people like you, who show their experience and their adventures online. I really want my sailplane license so I’m going to start with that in about a month when I’m done with my drivers license. Planes are just so cool man. Thank you for this masterpiece ❤
@@Iugeer i'm learning to fly sailplanes at the moment, theres a 15 year old kid in our club, hes got a grant to learn to fly, but sailplanes are fairly cheap, a powered flight is about $200 an hour while sailplanes are around $30 (australian dollars) so a kid working after school should be able to afford the weekend's flights fairly easily. Gliders are a group sport too, winch driver, wing runner, person who manages the day. so out of a whole day of flying, you might only get a couple of turns while everyone else flies too
@@Iugeer it is the cheapest way to learn to fly. I started a few years ago and cost me 20c South African a minute. I am now in Australia and they have a school near me in Warwick. Cheap as chips...untill you buy your own glider that is.😂
I used to work for a few South Africans. Some of the coolest and hardest working guys I know. James is an amazing person it seems. So much joy for life. I want that...
I have followed your videos since the crossing with the Cessna 210 but man is this an amazing video. It's crazy that I'm flying slings from panorama but know nothing about what goes into building them just a couple Kms away. This has been educational, exciting and so inspiring. Thanks for taking the probably 100s of hours you spent on putting this together. Hope you are still enjoying zazu!
That was the best content I have EVER seen on TH-cam!! What a testament to everyone's expertise, equipment, and pure balls of steel. The cinematography was outstanding. Thanks for allowing us to tag along.
In not a pilot, just another content creator on TH-cam and stumbled into this with my vague interest in aviation. An outstanding achievement of a film, aircraft and adventure. Absolutely loved it and in awe of the drive and effort in creating this film and your aircraft. Congrats, this is what TH-cam awards should be for . A
Yep this kiwi watched the whole 2+ hours of a monumental trip of a lifetime. Well done J.P and team. And as a non pilot, I could still sense the emotion of that arrival....in fact the whole journey. Thank you JP for sharing. Take care mate. And all the very best from down here in Nz.
what an incredible watch. Seriously, disregarding the triumph and achievement of actually flying this adventure. Putting all of this footage together and editing. I don't exaggerate when i say this is a masterpiece. Well done a true pleasure and joy to watch this from beginning to end. Thank you JP and everyone involved in making this happen.
this has got to be one of the best flying documentries on youtube. the production quality trumps any major production company on streaming services. seriously the shots are amazing
This just came across my feed and I had no idea who any of you were but I consider myself lucky to now have been exposed to all you are doing. The video is superb, the respect I have for a team of people I've never met is immense. The love, the passion, the expertise is all inspiring. Keep on truckin', or flying in this circumstance. We are all blessed to have pioneers such as yourselves showing us some really, really cool perspectives. Amen.
JP, your earlier videos sparked an interest in aviation for me. I now have dreams of becoming a pilot and following in the footsteps of people like you. Thank you so much ❤
Lots of respect to your dedication to building and flying to Osh KOSH. Most importantly bringing your friend who seems to be terrified flying over water but you did reassure him of which was really nice of you. Always remember you have an amazing family behind you. Very supportive family. I MUST SAY YOU ARE TRULY LIVING A DREAM OF SO MANY OUT HERE.. i am truly inspired and looking forward to many more of your adventures. RICHARD from NAIROBI, KENYA
You may be surprised to hear that this comment made my day! Publishing a 2 hour video is a scary thing. For a start it took more time to edit this than it did to build my airplane, so the time commitment is huge. But also I felt that the story needed to be told in an uninterrupted format and I had no idea how it would be received as TH-cam is usually a 10 minute platform. So thank you for acknowledging it. Kindest, JP
This was my first video I’ve seen from this channel and I literally watched every minute. This was so incredibly well made; the videography, the rate of progression, so easy to watch and I have absolutely no aviation experience in the slightest. That reception waiting for you on return from the very first test flight, I FELT that emotion with you, and you have easily gained a subscriber. Elegantly done friend
So great to watch. Don't know if you remember but we were the paramotor pilots flying just west of tedderfield tge day you went to lanseria wishing you guys good luck on the trip over the radios. Awesome movie
It was a long wait, but worth every minute. What an amazing documentary! Cinematic picture quality, beautyful shots, amazing story telling, great soundtracks and an amazing adventure. And last but not least, very charismatic and inspiring people starring the whole show. Thanks for over two hours of great entertainment and inspiration! Flying myself to osh (from switzerland) is a bucketlist item for me...
Just last week, I watched the entirety of your build series, downloaded while on a commercial flight. I was sad to land and see the resolution to the journey had never been posted. I'm so glad to see you've just been hard at work compiling it together. Your content has always been some of my favorite aviation content, showing me parts of the world I'll never be able to see myself.
What an epic flight by three epic aircraft! Testamount to the brilliant design, developement and production of Sling aircraft and the Sling team. Well done JP, James, Mike, fellow pilots and crew.
CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYONE ,AND YOU SIR , YOU ARE AN AMAZING MAN , BUILDER , PILOT , NAVIGATOR , AND YOU BUILT A BEAUTIFUL AIRPLANE , THIS IS A GREAT VIDEO , THANK YOU FOR THE RIDE AND JOURNEY OF THIS BEAUTIFUL AIRPLANE .❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
So happy to hear and see this video. I’d wondered what happened. I visited your channel from time to time wondering if I missed something. Great video my friend. (I’m a former Air Traffic Controller) Thanks for taking us along.
JP I have watched all of the videos of all your compatriots in this great adventure. Yours by far is the best. You have captured not only the adventure but the joy that surrounds it. It is all captured in that smile. Thank you for letting us ride along on this great flight and time spent making it happen!!!
Bravo Bravo Bravo !!!! The Greek's Salute you!!! ❤️🛩️❤ .... Next is Sailing for you!!! To build your own boat!!! Safe Flights... ...Thank you for this beautiful Documentary!!! Bravo to everyone who helps for this project to be completed 🙏
This the first video I have seen from your channel and the intro instantly had me hooked for two hours along with multiple replays showing other people this is some awesome work
Awesome, another video! And about 19:56 , I have flown a Rotax powered aircraft for years, and it was the best flying experience I ever had. It’s a neat little package they built everything into, the sound it produces is more delicate, more friendly for the neighbours. Loved it.
Stoked to see you back and pick this journey back up! I know life’s busy for everyone so genuinely glad you had time to continue sharing this. The videos are well put together and fun to watch, they’ve been missed!
Absolute great this adventure you had. My respect for this airmanship ! I'm only a 60 year old Sim-Pilot with around 4500h on the X-Plane 11/12 and made with a friend online on Vatsim a tour around the world from Munich to Munich eastbound with a C172 and later changed to a PA-34, so a very little bit I can imagine the feelings during the long legs. Great great great!!
I’m 70 and flew small, general aviation aircraft for 20 years. Most of my time in a Super Cub. I also have created all my own still images and videos for my life as a farm and ranch broker in Central Oregon. What you have done with simple gear (I’m imagining Insta 360, GoPro, iPhone etc) is nothing short of amazing. When I started in the ranch sale business I had to hire a helicopter, have the door removed, then do my best to hold my Nikon D90 still while we flew over the expanse below. The DJI drones I use now are so much better and more efficient. Great job! I am completely impressed and enjoyed watching immensely. Jim in Oregon
I had a very strong feeling you were planning something great. This is phenomenal. There are 8.2 billion people living on this earth today, and I am going to guess that only a handful have made this amazing odyssey come true. May you all continue to have safe and wonderful flights and continue to have the time of your life. You all are amazing people....
You can actually tell if you enjoyed a video when you didn't notice the 2 hrs that passed already. Thank you for sharing and more adventures in the future.
Getting back from being away is a thing. Also been a while since I went single screen and didn’t multitask to the detriment of both jobs. This, this is a single screen moment. Huge congrats to all. Thank you.
I am currently studying to become an aircraft designer. In the future, I plan to get a PPL and CPL and fly around the world! Your videos really inspire me!😁
Bro you are a "animal" when we talk about fly. GOOD JOB BRO. I love every second of this documentary, I just can call it a video. This is more. Have every emotion possible when you do with this passion.
loved fly-in airshows in the US. The history of Aviation is incredible. As a Kenyan GA pilot, way back in the 90's, I flew a C-172 into Lancaster airfield in Ohio to honor surviving members of the Tuskeege Airmen.Thanks for this. Great journey from Africa
When I saw that you posted a 2hr Video I was really excited. It took some days but today i had a free evening and really enjoyed the Film... thank you for taking us on the journey
JP, i had a night shift last night and only slept some 2 hrs during the day, planning to take the rest of the sleep in the afternoon. But by sheer luck bumped into your channel for the first time ever, and mind you I've been an avgeek for the best part of the last decade. Not once for the last 2 hours have i felt an inch of drowsiness because there's has been several moments where i did get a little overwhelmed by the beauty of aviation that you portrayed and by seeing your passion for it my man. Soon hope to join you in the beautiful skies. God bless my brother.
Thank you JP for finishing this series! I remember watching the start of this series when I was first starting my flight training. It was tough, as I was trying to fly in the winter weather of February, but your videos inspired me. I have since passed my commercial, and graduated with a degree in aerospace! I can't wait to build my own airplane one day, and I hope you continue to inspire others to live the adventure!
Awwwh JP, I have missed your epic content so much. Brought back some wonderful memories of hanging out with you back at Kern Valley in 2017 with N210EU and now to see you do another epic adventure with Zazu was just phenomenal 😎👍🏻😎
An absolute masterpiece JP. Been following you since you flew around the world with Louis and it was great to watch you take on an adventure like this again!
Maaannn, highest respect for this insane documentary!! It's absolutely one of the top 3 best documentaries I've ever seen! 😍🤝 All the music just fits perfectly, the shots are looking so impressive all the time and your storyline is amazing too, it's just perfect man. Thanks for these 2 hours of pure excitement, I really enjoyed it! 🙏😍😍🛩
Great video. Nerve wracking in places as you faced into challenging storms and Mike utilising all of his mechanical expertise and experience gliding 10 hours to Barbados from Cape Verde. Flying on to Nasssu absolutely breathtaning scenes. Flights of the angels.
wow wow wow, well JP that movie was worth the wait, and I say "movie" because it is. Well done on everything. This joins everything together so well. "A building fitly framed together". So cinematic, the music is spot on and You JP, are quite the narrator. I simply say, thank you.
Dang. I almost forgot about this epic adventure and just an hour ago somehow thought about JP. So glad to see this! Congratulations. Can't wait to see what's next
This dudes already gotta be extremely wealthy based on being able to build his own airplane and fly it across the atlantic just for giggles, i dont think he needs the meager youtube revenue 😂
This is probably one of the best videos on TH-cam I watched in a long time. Couldn’t stop. Amazing work putting it together. Nice choice for the paint job. It´s such a beautiful aircraft and hey: what an achievement! All the best and many happy landings.
Knots provide a more standardised method of navigation. 1 knot is 1 nautical mile traveled per hour. 1 nautical mile also equates to one minute of latitude.
For the past year TH-cam made me forget about your blog. Since then I've bought a sailboat and am having my adventure with it. But today I found this documentary and now having a great time watching you building your dream. Thank you, JP.
You're one of the aviation youtubers that I follow. Got busy with work and family. So glad when I came back to what makes me happy, I see this epic, and I mean EPIC, airplane movie!
So very awesome to see another video from you JP and happy all is alright! Such an epic adventure and spectacular cinematography! You and the others' determination to complete this amazing journey yet so challenging is really impressive and inspiring. Live life in the moment and to the fullest and this right here is what it is all about because very few people do it at this level and flying, especially in general aviation is so different, special and rewarding. Congratulations on completing this flight and safe skies ahead! Looking forward to the next trips and thank you for sharing these experiences!
Congratulations! Your adventure is impressive and your film was captivating. Another huge congratulations to all of you. What a great team of friends. I am sincerely moved by your character and your personality.
What a beautiful production! This had me almost in tears at the end, the camaraderie, the isolation, the adventure. You guys are the epitome of aviation!

I honestly tought he was dead.
Me too!
Awesome comment lol! Man the popcorn idea is awesome.
What's the song in the intro ?

As a pilot who got laid off during the pandemic, I lost the love for flying. Thank you for sharing this and truly inspiring me to get back into the sky once again.
Hey at least you got laid. I got F@cked.
Same with me, hope we can fly again 🔥
Certainly you have to get back in the air.... to be up in the air has always been a dream really to become a pilot ,,, even at 41yr I still hope to take my first flight ......
Wake up and fly....

Can’t imagine a 2 hour video probably takes 2 weeks
Absolutely agree with you. It was just amazing to watch and not boring at any moment!
It means you like airplanes.. and that this is expertly crafted through and through. From script to execution.
Same Here.
I want watch the documentary on how Grass grows. That was a compelling 2 hours. 😂
Watched it fully now… What a fantastic, emotional journey AND movie. I’d go to a theater to watch this again…
Thank youuu!! :)
Yes ..... Recommended to Netflix
Same here! Would pay to get that in cinema! Awesome, goosebumping adventure with epic pictures and music! Well done
He is alive. !!!!
I googled to see if he was still alive was genuinely concerned 🎉
Or did he have a backup clone? This could be the work of Chatgpt uploading old vids after our concerns!!! 🤔
I first came across this guy when he collaborated with Louis Cole on their round the world flight. I think there were some regrets afterwards and from what I understand they don’t keep in touch.
This brought tears of joy. The building, friendships, music, editing and foremost, the incredible flight to Oshkosh. Thank you all. Alright alright alright -
All my life I have pursued altitude. As a young boy I hiked to the summits of every mountain I saw, and as I grew, I learned to rock climb and those summits got even higher. I now fly quad copters and although they're not planes, my soul has been the most satisfied as of late. Now the internet brought me this gem of a documentary, and showed me a lifestyle I never knew existed. I am yearning to become a pilot now. To call this movie inspiring is an understatement, but I lack the words to express how inspired I really am. Thank you!

how can you afford a sailplane license at 17 if you dont mind me asking
@@Iugeer i'm learning to fly sailplanes at the moment, theres a 15 year old kid in our club, hes got a grant to learn to fly, but sailplanes are fairly cheap, a powered flight is about $200 an hour while sailplanes are around $30 (australian dollars) so a kid working after school should be able to afford the weekend's flights fairly easily.
Gliders are a group sport too, winch driver, wing runner, person who manages the day. so out of a whole day of flying, you might only get a couple of turns while everyone else flies too
@@Iugeer it is the cheapest way to learn to fly. I started a few years ago and cost me 20c South African a minute. I am now in Australia and they have a school near me in Warwick. Cheap as chips...untill you buy your own glider that is.😂
This is the general aviation film we all needed. Perfectly depicts what its all about. Thank you for putting in the work to create this!

That, Sir, is one of the best aviation movies ever made. Glad that we share the same century. Just thanks!
That was the best content I have EVER seen on TH-cam!! What a testament to everyone's expertise, equipment, and pure balls of steel. The cinematography was outstanding. Thanks for allowing us to tag along.

I had a very strong feeling you were planning something great. This is phenomenal. There are 8.2 billion people living on this earth today, and I am going to guess that only a handful have made this amazing odyssey come true. May you all continue to have safe and wonderful flights and continue to have the time of your life. You all are amazing people....
You can actually tell if you enjoyed a video when you didn't notice the 2 hrs that passed already. Thank you for sharing and more adventures in the future.
Getting back from being away is a thing. Also been a while since I went single screen and didn’t multitask to the detriment of both jobs. This, this is a single screen moment. Huge congrats to all. Thank you.

Love it, nothing better than people following their passion
Bro you are a "animal" when we talk about fly. GOOD JOB BRO. I love every second of this documentary, I just can call it a video. This is more. Have every emotion possible when you do with this passion.
Radio silence and then a movie?! JP, what are you doing to us

But by sheer luck bumped into your channel for the first time ever, and mind you I've been an avgeek for the best part of the last decade.
Not once for the last 2 hours have i felt an inch of drowsiness because there's has been several moments where i did get a little overwhelmed by the beauty of aviation that you portrayed and by seeing your passion for it my man.
Soon hope to join you in the beautiful skies.
God bless my brother.
Best of general aviation film ever! Wow..
Thank you JP for finishing this series! I remember watching the start of this series when I was first starting my flight training. It was tough, as I was trying to fly in the winter weather of February, but your videos inspired me. I have since passed my commercial, and graduated with a degree in aerospace! I can't wait to build my own airplane one day, and I hope you continue to inspire others to live the adventure!
Awwwh JP, I have missed your epic content so much. Brought back some wonderful memories of hanging out with you back at Kern Valley in 2017 with N210EU and now to see you do another epic adventure with Zazu was just phenomenal 😎👍🏻😎
An absolute masterpiece JP. Been following you since you flew around the world with Louis and it was great to watch you take on an adventure like this again!
This is the best thing I’ve ever seen on TH-cam
Honestly I couldn’t agree more.. ❤
The quality is this master piece is immaculate. You should receive some sort of award for the production of this doco
You're still here! Yea!!!! All planes have props! :D
Gliders?
Maaannn, highest respect for this insane documentary!!
It's absolutely one of the top 3 best documentaries I've ever seen! 😍🤝
All the music just fits perfectly, the shots are looking so impressive all the time and your storyline is amazing too, it's just perfect man.
Thanks for these 2 hours of pure excitement, I really enjoyed it! 🙏😍😍🛩
Holy shit, i genuinely thought you died. Awesome to see yet more amazing cinematography in long form.
Great video. Nerve wracking in places as you faced into challenging storms and Mike utilising all of his mechanical expertise and experience gliding 10 hours to Barbados from Cape Verde. Flying on to Nasssu absolutely breathtaning scenes. Flights of the angels.
Your videos moved me into aviation and I'm in flight school now.
wow wow wow, well JP that movie was worth the wait, and I say "movie" because it is. Well done on everything. This joins everything together so well. "A building fitly framed together". So cinematic, the music is spot on and You JP, are quite the narrator. I simply say, thank you.
Thank you for the kind words!
A fantastic filmmaker and an even better pilot. Loved this, JP.
Dang. I almost forgot about this epic adventure and just an hour ago somehow thought about JP. So glad to see this! Congratulations. Can't wait to see what's next
JP is alive! (Clearly not on TH-cam for the money!)
This dudes already gotta be extremely wealthy based on being able to build his own airplane and fly it across the atlantic just for giggles, i dont think he needs the meager youtube revenue 😂
@@m.s.35 people who are extremely wealthy don't have to build their own airplane.
This is probably one of the best videos on TH-cam I watched in a long time. Couldn’t stop. Amazing work putting it together. Nice choice for the paint job. It´s such a beautiful aircraft and hey: what an achievement!
All the best and many happy landings.
RIP to your instructor in the early part of this video, I recognize him from sling’s memorial video earlier this year I believe.
What a tremendous work: Hard work, engineering, logistics and courage. Congratulations J P, enjoy it.
This might be a stupid question. But why do they still use knots, to gauge speed in the air and on the water and stay safe out there?
Knots provide a more standardised method of navigation. 1 knot is 1 nautical mile traveled per hour.
1 nautical mile also equates to one minute of latitude.
For the past year TH-cam made me forget about your blog. Since then I've bought a sailboat and am having my adventure with it.
But today I found this documentary and now having a great time watching you building your dream.
Thank you, JP.
Please don't stop posting again!!! your videos are brilliant
You're one of the aviation youtubers that I follow. Got busy with work and family. So glad when I came back to what makes me happy, I see this epic, and I mean EPIC, airplane movie!
He’s back!
So very awesome to see another video from you JP and happy all is alright! Such an epic adventure and spectacular cinematography! You and the others' determination to complete this amazing journey yet so challenging is really impressive and inspiring. Live life in the moment and to the fullest and this right here is what it is all about because very few people do it at this level and flying, especially in general aviation is so different, special and rewarding. Congratulations on completing this flight and safe skies ahead! Looking forward to the next trips and thank you for sharing these experiences!
Thank you for the kind words!
That apartment is nicer than any place I have ever lived
I really enjoyed this. Better than any movies on netflix. it's real. Thankyou. This is the sort of media I like to consume
Interesting to see you traipsing around again. ZarZoo is a beautiful bird.
Congratulations!
Your adventure is impressive and your film was captivating.
Another huge congratulations to all of you.
What a great team of friends.
I am sincerely moved by your character and your personality.
What a beautiful production! This had me almost in tears at the end, the camaraderie, the isolation, the adventure. You guys are the epitome of aviation!
