    My daughter and I depart KAGC (Allegheny County) just outside of Pittsburgh, PA, and ask for a city tour. We're given a class bravo clearance, and treated to amazing views of downtown Pittsburgh from above.

    Very nice. I’m working on getting my license back to current and then will begin working on my IFR rating. I have already convinced my wife for my 50th birthday (next year) we are flying from our home airport, KTRI, and flying to KAGC and then catching a Steelers game. I am really excited about it! Nice to see another mid life guy getting in the air!

    Great shots of the City and an enjoyable flight. Those crosswinds are certainly a challenge. Well done you two. 🇬🇧💜

    Nice, I’m 55 now and looking at starting lessons soon. The flight school here suggest one of your videos on their Facebook page.

    7:33 lol, this was me as a kid. Some absolutely gorgeous shots of the city. I'm a little jealous.
    Something to look at for the vibration on the windscreen mounted camera, make sure the camera won't touch any other surfaces. I can't quite tell from the video if it is or not, but I was struggling with windscreen camera vibration and I found that the mount screw was touching so it threw off the stabilization.

    I’ve enjoyed watching you grow as a pilot. I’m 42 and working on my PPL in CO getting ready for my XC Solos. I’ve got a few cross wind landings on my channel you should checkout. It’s a great feeling when you kick in the rudder and dip the opposite wing, line up on center and touchdown. Keep up the great content.

      No sir, it's part of the flying club that I run. I did just buy a 1973 Piper Cherokee 235 - you'll be seeing it here on the channel soon!
