    Retired military pilot and current airline pilot here...I was a little nervous at first on how young he looks but after a couple minutes of watching and seeing how he works the flight deck I was pleasantly proven wrong. Well done! Your future is bright.

    Own Lear 45. I personally don't fly it I have a crew. If I was your age again I think I've done a little bit different. I love my plane and I love the freedom and mobility that it allows us to do. I also don't take it for granted. We worked mighty hard to have something like this.
    It's a privilege to have a private aircraft in the United States. Regardless of the make or model. I would believe this young man's future is already been made for him. He'll be just fine. From Key West Florida. Good day.

I love them. I have flown our US government's dignitaries, flown fast movers and large 4-engine aircraft. The Vision Jet is probably the singularly most capable & versatile aircraft I have flown. You can go into Chicago Ohare, or First Flight in NC, single pilot.......BTW, nice job. You have a bright road map ahead of you.

      Being rich is definitely an advantage. Doesn’t guarantee nor promise you’ll be flying a Jet like this, but you have a guarantee to pay for your training/way of passage.
      Just how life is ig. Many kids wanna fly but they can’t afford it. There are some loan programs, and there are some airlines that get you in for free, but a lot of those are for the 1%. And not trying to go in debt $200,000. Especially if my Medical falls apart lol.

Are you a permissive parent that lets them do whatever they want & then complain about your own error or are you an absentee parent that's not present in the child's life? His parents also have money to afford to have their teenager flying a fucking private jet.

    I think i heard you say on the brakes when you retracted the landing gear. I can tell you what happened to me back in 1994. i retired from the airlines after 35 years in 2023 and one of the planes i flew was the Saab 340. i flew the Saab 10k hours over 11 years and the plane i flew before the Saab was the Metro liner SA227 and i would tap the brakes to stop the wheels when the gear was retracted. So i tapped the brakes on the Saab also . The Saab has anti lock brakes. One night after takeoff when the gear was coming up i tapped the brakes and later after about an hour we noticed we had lost almost all the hydraulic fluid. Landed safely but had to get towed to the gate. The brake caliber on number 2 wheel had broken at the top and bottom and was completely missing. So maybe the sudden stop caused it to break and so i quit tapping the brakes.
    Thanks for the video.

    • @edwardmiller887
      @edwardmiller887 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Tapping the breaks is a good practice. The repeated extra stress on the gear due to gyroscopic procession when you don't tap the brakes has a far greater probability of causing a problem than the isolated incident you experienced. If you want to get an idea of how much extra force is required to retract the gear with the wheels spinning go fly something like a C model Mooney with manual gear and experience the difference yourself.

    What all us old guys forget is how quickly the young brain of (our former) youth of a 20-somethings can absorb information, process it, and make decisions. Its Why the military always has used 20-somethings in this in new innovations in war tech. Us old guys' brains become inelastic, harder to train. Young brains learn, absorb, react, correct, repeat.

      Agree . When I started fly I was 14. Friends at church had a plane and gave ma a great education. Funny thing I thought it was no big deal. Learning was super easy. And I soloed at 16.
      Had a stroke in my 40’s that ended my flying.

And to answer your question about the gators in the Choctawhatcee Bay, YES, we live close to Shalimar on Garmier's Bayou and there are certainly gators in that brackish water where two creeks flow into the bayou in the back. I have seen a dolphin, a gator and a hammer head shark on on the same day without ever leaving the bay.
