This had to be in the winter. Great to see Jeff again. I flew in and out of that Air Port for several years back in my good old days. lol
Moonbeam!! Your videos have quickly become some of my favorites! Thanks for taking us along!
I love these videos Captain. I always believed flying is magical and you know the magic.
Great CRM!
This video brings back (not so good) memories of my time flying part 135. Company I flew for thought it was no problem to head to ASE in marginal weather in the winter. I can't count the number of times I ended up at EGE or GJT with pissed off clients. This was the early 80s, fortunately got hired by one of the majors before it got really bad. Just retired end of 2023.
You guys are a great combo! Keep it up Jim and Jeff!
Thanks
Thanks for video gentleman!... You too Jeff😁
thanks Snowman. But, I should be thanking you for watching
During the course of my flying career (60 years), over 1,000 approaches into KEGE with helicopters, CE-421, PC-12 and CE-525. Great mountain airport and always excellent service and amenities with a top notch FBO. Favorite arrival route was: RLG, VOAXA and AQULA. Worst departure was a July 5th with 97F and no wind with fuel to Mississippi. The PC-12 was not a strong climber on that day. Always enjoy the videos you produce and the places you fly.
Thanks John. Eagle does have its draw backs with the elevation and negative weather that can be very unpredictable.
Nice video thanks
Great! Thanks for the videos - always enjoy flying with you!! 😎
Nitty Gritty Dirt Band Bowlegs Lyrics “ They got a beer named Jeff”. Yup it’s yours now!!!
More frequent videos… I love it.
Sometimes I miss EGE but I definitely miss all the awesome FBOs since leaving 135 flying for 121.
I agree with you about the FBO's
Espectacular flight !!!! ☝🏼☝🏼🦾🦾🧿🧿🙋♂🙋♂
THANKYOU Jim.. always look forward to your vids!
Beautiful scenery on this one Jim, thanks for posting.
Ah, to be young again with better eyes. The life I could have enjoyed. Thanks, fellows, for another interesting hop.
Eagle is interesting and there is a lot to do. I fly into it a lot in my simulator so by now I’m used to it. When the weather comes in it really closes that valley up. Departure is fun there also. Of course on my simulator, sandwiches are a lot less expensive. Cheers.
Don, your comment is so true. I love the area.
Awesome video Jim. Never gets old. Cheers from CYYB.
thanks for another great video Jim !
Another great video Capt!!
Thank you for flying safely.😊
Jim, I was at the Costco there one day when a lady ask me where the airport was. I had to wait for the noise from the plane to subside so I can let her know she was awful close!!!!
Great video sir!! Blue skies

Great flight Jim into the high country.
Thx
Love you videos. Beautiful airplane!
A pilot with a British accent sounds so "cool, calm and collected".
Snow on one side temp in the 100 on the other lol. Another great video sir!
👍
Thanks, Captain ! Really enjoy your videos. When I win the Lottery, I'll have you Flying us around. Until then I'll just keep watching. LOL
Derek, I hope we're both winners on that day. Hmm, maybe a Gulfstream.
Still watching. High Altitude Jeff 😅😅
As a fellow Brit, I accosted Jeff at your FBO in St. Louis, a few months ago. Really nice chap!
That’s a hotrod! 👌
I want more Proline in my life tbh tho hah
That boat company
Love your videos! Question, if Eagle isn't an option, what about Rifle? Not too far away and a pretty different climate there. Or do your clients typically prefer to land close in Eagle rather than make the drive?
Garmin forgot Approaching Minimums...
Did you happen to run-across "PremierOneDriver" at the Eagle airport where he's based? We don't see him anymore on TH-cam.
No, unfortunately I've never met him.
Hey Cap! What’s the song name at the end of the video? 17:00
Huh. So you order fuel like a cheesesteak there? "With" or "without."
Why no Prist? It's cheap.
Doesn’t need it. They have a gas/oil heat exchanger, and FBO’s like to accidentally add DEF instead of prist these days. No thanks.
Don’t the FARs say that at 40,000 ft, one of you needs to be constantly wearing an O2 mask?
Wrng that's only 10,000 feet to 16,000feet. Non oresise cabin. Lanes high flyers use oresurseed cabines
@@sharonbraselton3135 incorrect. Check FAR 135.89(b)(2). Clearly states above 35k one crew member must constantly wear oxygen. I must assume he operates under part 91, not 135. Which I suppose makes sense.
