    When I was 9 I had a dream to get my pilots liscense. Time flies by and I am now 24. Today was my first flight lesson with much thanks to you for the constant entertainment, motivation, and reminder of how fun aviation can be.

    Man seeing videos like this really make me really hope I find a nice paying job soon so I can start learning to get my PPL. Basically the whole reason I studied what I did was so I can start out with a high paying salary to learn to fly, since at the time learning to be a pilot wasn't a great job market.
    Great video Trent! Looking forward to more!

    Again, I’m lovin the addition of fly fishing! You got this. Just use a hopper and a dropper. Or, a Royal Wolf (hopper) and a beaded nymph (dropper). You’ll catch fish all over the country. It for sure works in N. Carolina, S. Carolina, Tenn, Ga., Idaho, Wyoming and Montana. I know for a fact it works in all these states because I’ve done it!

I've seen a lot of these style of planes on Microsoft Flight Simulator! I know there's a term for how you drop the tail and glide like that but i cant think of it! Something about that is so cool looking to me, especially after seeing it in Microsoft Flight Sim, its cool to see it done in real life! 🙏🔥😍

    Hey Trent, I‘m watching from Germany and for us over-regulated folks such an event is unthinkable. Yet I really enjoy watching all your videos, which brings me to an idea. Maybe you could put together the best snippets and adventures you have to produce a movie about your last couple of years in aviation and sell it on streaming platforms. I bet people (including me) would definitely pay some bucks for that and enjoy a Trent Palmer Productions Movie

Motorhome window seals, a pile of sand inside. It gets past seals oil can't, it's crazy. I feel bad for these plane motors! You need to scare that cat out of the area. Guys use teams of dogs to chase them out. Once they're out they usually don't come back, but you don't want that guy creepin around. Hailey will be movin 3 states away lol.

    Hi Trent and all the great people who you share the love of flying. I love your input on many things for private pilots. I was wondering if you all would consider making Idaho your new head quarters for your fly-in. Only for one reason really, the salt flats destroy all components because of the molecular square structure. It gets into everything. Exposing all those planes to its salt elements only hurt the internal parts for sure including all the campers and one wheels and vehicles. Idaho would love to see your fly-in relocated to the back country. What do you think and what do your followers think? There are several places that may give your event a huge up swing. Thank you Trent for all you do for the love of flying! Keep up the great fun! Sincerely, Jim
