  • To skip to the flight, go to 12:14!
    Greetings fellow airplane lovers,
    I wanted to make this video for the curious souls that may want to see more of the GlaStar. First, some up close video of the 'Star and then a fun little flight to note some of the initial performance and handling characteristics. I'm in love with this plane for sure! I'm looking at TW & manual flap conversion in 2-3 more weeks. I'm currently on the mend from that knee surgery I mentioned, so hopefully I can push those pedals again soon!

      wanna know plane owners jobs because I wanna become an airline pilot and that pays a decent amount and even then it would be hard to buy a plane

      Brokeyz Popcool You’ll starve the first 10 years of your career. And that’s if you can get a job with the bigs. Usually you’ll have to starve for 5 or more years waiting to get a job for the bigs. And once you get there, you’ll starve and beg for seat time. But after a looong time, you’ll make captain and then you’ll start making real money. Don’t get married and dear god, don NOT have kids. If it’s just you, and you love ramen noodles and living in squalor and out of a gym bag, you can do it.

      Since I don’t have a “fair face” I can assure you many of us girls work out asses off and make many sacrifices to fly. I joined the military and basically have cut off all other hobbies, drive an older vehicle, have side gigs as much as possible. Don’t go spreading rumors that women can bat their eyes and have money thrown at them. That’s stupid.

Woodstock is an excellent plane and your wisdom makes a great plane even better. Thanks for putting all the time to share this with us. I wish I could fly.

    Those colors are amazing and really come to life in the sunshine - that would be Woodstock's cheery yellow and the pilots beautiful red hair! I think the mix of yellow and polished aluminum is a great safety feature for visibility - the hi-vis yellow fuselage for near-range traffic spotting and the polished surfaces for distance. Sometimes the best long-range alert to other traffic is the reflection of sunlight off a polished surface. You got me sold on the airplane!

    Good move! I lived in Port Angeles from 2002-2019 and flew Rite Bros. C-150 until just
    before they sold it. Had a lot of fun, but got into some situations where more power
    and fuel capacity would have made life a lot easier. The other thing you want in the
    area is lots of glide ratio - that water is cold! I'm glad you are getting to fly the Olympic
    area - very beautiful and educational place to do it.

    Looks like a nice slippery airplane, NACA ducts and all, be safe and enjoy! Fly by stick is great, I also forgot about it after the first minute, much nicer than yoke. 🙂 Yes those are Fowler flaps and agree the handle would be better. The Diamonds were great with the trailing caster nose wheel, nice big Rudder, no need for nose wheel steering. I also remember transitioning from MPH to Kts. Agree on getting a separate DG although the switchable horizon is neat. Maybe you can slave a GPS to the future DG/CDI which can be nice. The Diamonds stalled the same can keep the stick all the way back the whole time, clearly the VSI shows the descent. I look forward to other videos, nice landing BTW 👍
