- This video is part 2 of 2. I detail a flight on a Boeing 767-400 from JFK Airport in New York City to the Harry Reid Airport in Las Vegas. Part 1 focuses on how air traffic control helps us get to the runway and leave the New York City area while part 2 focuses on the gorgeous approach to Las Vegas.
Peter I hope your channel really becomes something big. There are so many things about air travel that I've always wanted to know, and little by little I'm becoming an expert from watching your vids. On a recent trip from San Francisco to my home in Phoenix, I was able to tell my traveling companion that we were passing Sky Harbor because we were on the downwind leg of our landing pattern. As we turned left I told him we were on the base leg and that we'd soon make another left for our final approach. You've turned me into a pro! Keep em coming and thanks!
Jason that is so awesome! This is exactly what I do when I am flying with someone! Please spread the word about my channel! Thank you so much!
Rolla Missouri, is also where Culver Propellers are made, fine hand made wooden propellers for vintage piston engined aircraft.
Wow, that is a great fact! I did not know that! One can learn so much by just flying across the country!
Definitely on to something… A Masterclass Series, even! I guess that’s what these videos already are, actually. Done with so much to offer, from the presentation and quality editing, to the passion Peter exudes and impeccably detailed observations, etc.!!! Pretty amazing, Peter! Keep it up!
Wow! This is humbling...thank you so much! Please spread the word!
My personal favorite on this flight was the Grand Canyon flyover!! I-N-C-R-E-D-I-B-L-E!! It was definitely the best one that I have seen!! Thank you for another GREAT video!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Amazing scenery. Thanks for sharing Peter 👍
Thanks for watching John !
Awesome video, Peter. And funny that you are on the same 767 again! Happy Holidays 🙂
Thanks! Yes, it was pretty cool! Happy Holidays!
Great Video with fantastic views. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
Another excellent video! Thanks for all the info you provide about the areas you fly over. Such an interesting channel ! Please keep them coming!
Thank you so much! I'm working on more videos right now!
Fantastic video, Peter. Keep them coming.
Thank you! So much more to come!
Peter, thank you for these spectacular views. I enjoy your videos. My best to you and your family during this Holiday Season.
Thank you so much! Happy holidays!
Peter Mavegaaaaasss !!
Awesome video, tks !
Cheers from Brazil!
Thank you as always Cristiano!
Missourian here, it's pronounced RALL-A, the O makes an 'ALL' sound. Great video and very informative, thank you!!
Thank you!
Peter - if you've never done a few days in the canyon hiking around and down the canyon it's a must!
Great suggestion!
I'm loving the videos! I'd highly recommend putting maps in every once and a while to help give people a better perspective of the approach and the route.
I moved from SoCal to that area in Kansas you flew over, it's so quiet and beautiful out here, incredible skies, affordable, friendly people, especially the large Anabaptist population. Plenty of neat history and culture, things to see and do, the Flint Hills are amazing. Hutch is a great city, good breweries, neat Main street. Hard to find a direct flight anywhere out of Wichita, though!
Thanks for sharing that!
Awww man I grew up in Albuquerque flying over that are of the southwest brought back some great memories of the landscape
Cool! Thanks for watching!
Fantastic video Peter.
Thanks so much!
great video again Peter!
Thank you Dan C!
Stunning video Peter! The Grand Canyon was beautiful, excellent videography. Keep up the good work!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching - so much more to come!
I've only experienced The Grand Canyon thru photos but your video is spectacular and I have never seen Shiprock before. Thank you so much for another awesome video.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much Lela!
Another marvelous video 🤩🤩
Greetings from Dominican Republic 🇩🇴
Gracias from the United States!
Great footage! Hope you had a good time in Las Vegas. Happy Holidays!
Thanks! I sure did! Happy Holidays to you!
I just watched part 1 and I love your videos. You obviously live in NYC and travel a great deal. Even though I am very well versed in ATC procedures in North America as well as here in the UK, your narration is excellent and adds some spice to information which I already understand and don't need an explanation. But of course there are a lot of people who don't understand ATC and these videos are an excellent starting point as you explain some in depth information in a way that is easily understood.
I look forward to watching your other videos. Greeting from Scotland. Fly safe.
Thank you! I appreciate it! I really love this stuff!
breathtaking view of the canyon. i'm amazed how steady you hold your phone!
That’s because there was no turbulence!
Great video and stunning views. Wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas!
Thank you Mary!
Wow, what great views you had out the window. I can't imagine why people take the window seat and shut the window! It is a beautiful world out there. I'm with you, my eyes are always out the window the whole flight (even at night). ...and the Grand Canyon, wow your footage was gorgeous. Thank you.
I know, right? Thanks so much Lori!
They'll say you're selfish for spending more money for a window seat and that their sleep is more important than your view. They'll also say they don't care if it's the only time you'll ever fly that route and see that view, and that their sleep is still more important.
Throw an eye mask at them.
You really should teach a college course in air travel. Fascinating video.
Thank you! I like your comment!
Perfect information. I just saw the "Welcome to Luton" Prank video, and I am inspired. You provided a great bit of info.
How would you like to explain a "WELCOME TO PHOENIX!" sign one day?
Another great video Pete! You're lucky to get a wide body 767 across the nation as you see less and less of them these days
Thank you! I sure was lucky!
Yup, alway get a window in the right side, especially if its you first time to Vegas....especially at night!
Yes!
It's crazy that pretty much 24/7, aircraft are on about a 2 minute landing schedule in Las Vegas. You will sit at a red light and see one headed in and before the light changes, there's another.
It sure is busy!
This guy can sure talk
Hi Peter best videos I’ve seen. I love looking out the window also
And love learning about small towns of America. The views of the Canyon are amazing. How did you manage to identify towns looking from the aircraft? Al
Thanks so much! A map on my phone helped me identify the towns!
You fly over my home right after flying over lake mead.
Cool!
AWESOME! I had the chance to watch this on the 65" screen in my house that I share with other household members, which was really great for those scenic views, especially of the Grand Canyon! I'm envious of how clear it was as you passed it. Do you recall what the flight level/altitude was at the time? Whenever I see the Canyon from the air, I'm flying between Seattle and Phoenix, so it is at a cruising altitude of 36-37,000 feet. Also it was cloudy the last times I flew that route. I grew up in Arizona, so I got to hike in the Canyon, even all the way to the bottom--yet it never gets old!!! 🙂
AWESOME back to you! I just watched it on a big screen too! I don't recall the altitude.
@@PeterMasella Ok, but I'm guessing you were lower than 36,000 since your flight was headed to Vegas, which is a lot closer than Seattle. Big screens are so cool! 🙂
Beyond the beyond National Geographic 🙏
😀
Nice vid! I remember flying in to and out of Vegas back in the late '80s, and they had actual slot machines set up all throughout the departure and arrival gates. I wonder if they're still doing that?
Oh, the slot machines are still there!
@@PeterMasella They get you coming and going! Ha! Viva Las Vegas!
Where was that video sphere shown at the end of the video located? I used to go to Vegas often but haven't been since pre-pandemic... that sphere must be new! If I had to take a guess, maybe at the Venetian?
It’s at Resorts World Las Vegas, which opened during the pandemic. It’s brand new!
@@PeterMasella Cool, I'm looking forward to seeing it next time I'm there!
Just found out that Harry Reid, whom the Las Vegas airport was re-named for, has passed away at age 82. ☹ (Also, I found some photos of mine from 2020 of the Grand Canyon from the air that I'd forgotten about, which aren't too bad! So I enjoyed making a video (slideshow) of that flight.)
I just saw that news too. Amazing how soon after the airport was renamed for him. I just watched your slideshow. Great views, Shirley!
@@PeterMasella Thanks! 🙂
What kind of camera and wide angle lens are you using?
I use an iPhone.
what camera was used to shoot this video?
This was filmed on an iPhone
An aerial view of Hutchinson, KS at 1:15
Yes, it is explained in more detail at 3:40.
I really hate it when people keep the window shade open. It spoils it for everyone.
Why do people get the window seat & close the shade???
That is the biggest mystery known to man! I have no idea!
I've done the east to west flight home to LAS Vegas oh when you say NEVADA there's NO H in the spelling
I know! I have been told that many times but New Yorkers always pronounce it with the H no matter how hard we try!
rolla mo is pronounced rawlla
Now I know! Thanks!
I’m not very experienced with flying. So you’re saying it’s common for this ride to be a bumpy one?🤢🤢
Turbulence can occur anywhere, but often often mountains.
Like the video but you’re mispronouncing Nevada. Lol!!!
Thanks for watching! I’m pronouncing it the way people from where I’m from (NY) say it! It’s a local accent. I’ve never really heard anything else.
What's up with that mask?
Flu season? Seems reasonable
