This is honestly such a well-put-together video, From the background music your occasional radio calls, and your narrating. Thank you for such an excellent video.
Got back from JNB last week. Having flown 1115 nautical miles around South Africa… Grand Central to Dundi Lodge (near Upington), Madikwe East and then a farmers strip near Vaalwater and back to Grand Central! A 5 day C182 trip! All thanks to you and your videos that INSPIRED ME! Thank you 😊❤️
My great-great grandmother was born and raised in Cape Town, in the Bo-Kaap. I've wanted to go and visit there for a long time. This was an awesome video and it's made me want to go visit there even more!
Enjoyed the views, born and bred in Cape Town, did my national service in Simonstown, so I know False Bay quite well but left in 1974. Have never been back, but still miss it. Do all my flying in Australia now .
Hi Rosita, big compliments, your videos are getting better and better. But best of all is the great, happy and heartfelt mood you create with your videos. Thanks a million for this, greetings to your family and we are already looking forward to your next films.
Thank you so much 🙂 These kind of messages are such an energy boost and give me inspiration to create more videos! I am so pleased to hear that you liked it.
Good morning Bambi. Excellent flying of you over the South African Cape Town Peninsula. I love flying with you Bambi and learn to ride the flight from you
My Dad flew there back in the 50's, Navigator on RAF Shackeltons. He even got a helicopter ride up to Table Top Mountain. There's old super 8 footage of them skimming the ground at bush level somewhere. He said South Africans were very friendly. It's great to see it in this 21st Century way. Thanks for sharing/uploading
Wow that must've been a wild time! South Africans are very friendly indeed. I'll be filming some more helicopter content in South Africa later on this year :)
Aw man, your videos are so enjoyable to watch. You have such a lovely, delightful energy and add to that the beautiful landscapes you're flying over. Amazing!
Flying in bare feet! That's more African than Dutch haha. I still remember my Oma being horrified when I went to the shops in bare feet in Apeldoorn, and some of her friends told her. I grew up in Zimbabwe and spent as much of my childhood in bare feet as I could.
In Hawaii, barefoot is normal for kids. Grew up bare feet for years only time required to wear shoes was in school. Other than that bare foot all the time. But now most people use some kind of slippers or flip flops.
Haha I'm laughing so hard right now! I just went to the supermarket here in Utrecht (NL) on my bare feet and got some funny stares... Then I remembered it's not as accepted here as it is in SA hahahaa
@@PilotBambi Your videos are superb, You're a very especial lady, I simply love the same things You do, evaluating your choices, per example: - visiting the "Sling" aicraft manufacture company in South Africa. Very, very good. Dankie!
My Mother came from SA but I have never been there but maybe some day..............! A Great flight you had there. As for the 172 I remember having an engine out at San Jose Dos Campus in Brazil in one. Sure made for good gliding practice. Regards, Jim in NI UK
I truly hope you manage to visit some day. It's just so beautiful!! Well I'm happy the engine didn't do anything funny while we were cruising over the ocean haha
I bambi and family hope all are well. It looks to be nice and hot.what beautiful scenery. Take care and good luck for the future phil. Bambi awesome landing you are brilliant.
So good!! Thanks for taking us along with you. That early morning sunshine was just too beautiful over the landscape. Really made me homesick. Greetings from Stephanie’s South African friend in Zürich, Switzerland 🇨🇭🇿🇦 PS You are always welcome to stay/visit with us.
Heyyy Bambi I lived in Bloubergstrand and then Milnerton back in 84-87 and well, I was 14 then! But I feel so much happy hearing your description of the feelings that Cape Town inspires cause, I kept the very same souvenirs of that ancient life I had there, which is around 35 years ago 👋🏻 Love from France 🇫🇷😘
Great video & excellent content! Did you know that ZS-SCE suffered extensive fire damage to its engine compartment in April this year, while on the apron at Wonderboom, during startup. No one was injured. Keep up the great channel!
Thank you for taking us along on this beautiful flight! Brings back nice memories of a vacation I had down there about 12 years ago, really an amazing region :)
Great video. Brought back great memories. We used to live just below Table Mountain , in Tamboerskloof. Used to fly around the peninsula with my friend , pilot Geoff Southern . Now live in Bargara Australia.
@@PilotBambi Hi , yes miss Cape Town. I used to be a wine rep for a big wine company there . Sold wines to resturants and bottle shops. My sister inlaw did her PPL in Cape Town. She lives in the Netherlands. What are you plans in aviation. 😊
Nice flight around the Peninsula :) I had a similar route on my check-flight for a PPL-conversion from Cape Town International Airport. Amazing scenery.
And Bambi is back in south Africa. Do you have already 50%off when you book a flight shiphol - cape Town? Very nice pictures there. Seems to be a very nice destination. Fly safe. ✈️🤣😎
Ahh we flew over the Drakensbergen and landed near Amphitheatre. Unforutantely it was a "no film" flight, but it was spectacular. Will be sure to film it next time!!
Gosh Miss Bambi!!! I would love to meet you here in the US!! My boss had a King Air 350 at the local airport. I have gate access to the hanger and learned a lot about small planes!
Hi Rosita, when are you back ? Let us know and we should meet at FASH for pizza's or somewhere else. A few things have changed here but the weather and scenery are still amazing. Cheers Trev
@@PilotBambi I'm doing my first proper flying lesson tomorrow after having flown 3 and half hours on a Cessna 152 with my greatuncle, who's a flight instructor at Midden-Zeeland. Those weren't really flying lessons but I did most of if not all the flying. So now, after getting a Class 2 medical, I'll be flying a Tecnam P92E for the upcoming months.
What a beautiful plane and her performance is absolutely fantastic. If you ever want to fly SCE again please give me a shout as I am the new owner of this beauty and added a few extra's to her. Have had her now for a year and never regretted buying her.
Wow that is so cool!!! Small world... A fantastic aircraft that I have fond memories of flying. I hope you have a great time with her. Are you based in Cape town?
@@PilotBambi I am having a fantastic time with her. Unfortunately not in Cape Town anymore. She is based at wonderboom airport in Pretoria but use her a lot to fly to George and back
Eish ...that's my city . Isn't she beautiful ? She can be extremely ugly too . She can get temperamental and sometimes rude , but a warm hearty laugh and a toothless smile is all I need from her to tell me I'm home . I Love You "My Ma Se" Mothercity !!
I got to visit Cape Town in 1999. Memories for a life. We stayed in Camp's Bay.
That's fantastic. It truly is an unforgettable place :)
This is honestly such a well-put-together video, From the background music your occasional radio calls, and your narrating. Thank you for such an excellent video.
Gosh thank you so much, this message really means alot to me! Glad to hear you enjoyed this video style.
SHOOOOOOOW!!!!!! Bambi!!!!!

Aww. Now I miss home! Good old Cape Town!
I can imagine! Such a lovely place!
Incredibly beautiful! landscapes that I want to see with my own eyes. maybe someday I'll fly there and maybe in formation with you
That would be super cool! Glad you enjoyed the video :)
Thank you Captain for the impecable camera work , the tour and the ride, cape town is beautiful,

I flew there in the 60’s in SAAF Shackeltons. Have some great pictures taken from the front bomb aimers position..

Hi Bambi from Adelaide South Australia. Fantastic views and a great video - thanks
Thank you David! Hope to do some flying in Australia some day too!
Aw man, your videos are so enjoyable to watch. You have such a lovely, delightful energy and add to that the beautiful landscapes you're flying over. Amazing!
Great video.
Thanks for nominating our Portuguese navigator that crossed that cape 👏😊
🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹
Thanks! Yep, a very important and interesting part of history!
I just flew SCE today at eagle air🙌
Certainly spectacularly beautiful in those parts. Have not been to CT for abt 12 years. 8 hours drive from Port Elizabeth.
Yes and just so stunning to fly over many diverse landscapes in a short flight; ocean, winelands and the beautiful rocky peninsula!
Flying in bare feet! That's more African than Dutch haha. I still remember my Oma being horrified when I went to the shops in bare feet in Apeldoorn, and some of her friends told her. I grew up in Zimbabwe and spent as much of my childhood in bare feet as I could.

Really enjoy watching your videos ❤️ I'm a proud South African right now.
Great idea, great perspective from above with cameras showing both landscape and the plane.
Thanks! I'm so happy with how the footage turned out, especially with the rising sun in the background :)

Nice flight around the Peninsula :)
I had a similar route on my check-flight for a PPL-conversion from Cape Town International Airport. Amazing scenery.
Thats awesome!! When did you do your check out? Glad you enjoyed the video :) Cool that you flew there too!
@@PilotBambi I did my check out in May 2018 with some nice clouds and a near-perfect landing :)
Wow. Been there, never done that :-)
It's fascinating both from the sky and from the ground!! :)
What a beautiful video ! Thanks for sharing it … it reminds me an amazing holiday in Cape Town not a long time ago !
Glad you enjoyed it!!
Thanks for another great video! Looking forward to go flying in SA asap!
Thanks!! Hope you do a trip like this too, it's so spectacular!
So awesome to see where I live from the sky.. Spectacular (Fish Hoek)
That's so cool!! You definitely live in an awesome area!
So nice, well done!
Lovely video, I’ve done this route several times on MSFS, can’t wait to do a real one, this was so inspiring. Well done!
That's awesome!! You must have recognized it very well then :) It's just such a stunning route
very nice flight thx
And Bambi is back in south Africa. Do you have already 50%off when you book a flight shiphol - cape Town? Very nice pictures there. Seems to be a very nice destination. Fly safe. ✈️🤣😎
Well I'll let you in on a little secret; this was filmed on our last trip in SA. I'm a bit behind on the editing haha! We'll be back in SA in October!
I love your life 💙
Be happy!
Did i saw a very proud dad beside you ?? "-)
As always!! haha
i'm really liking dads shirt
Awesome video. I would love to see one of the Drakensberg and one of my home city Durban. Love your channel btw.
Ahh we flew over the Drakensbergen and landed near Amphitheatre. Unforutantely it was a "no film" flight, but it was spectacular. Will be sure to film it next time!!

Literally saw my house in frame for a brief second... didn't know you came around down ere
Haha that's awesome!! I spend about 2-3 months in Cape Town every year :)
@@PilotBambi Thats awesome, its always a blast getting to see my local area from a different perspective up in the sky

Are you back in South Africa?!
Please let me know if or when you guys go past wonderboom!
Did you close any friends in the deaths in east London tavern?
😍😍
Cool flight with beautiful scenery. Hope you can come to the USA and fly in Glacier National Park, one day.
Definitely want to fly in the USA soon!
I’d love to do this…What will a flight like this cost a tourist?
Do y’all measure useful load different over there lol. How do you fit 4 people and fuel in a 172
Eish ...that's my city . Isn't she beautiful ? She can be extremely ugly too . She can get temperamental and sometimes rude , but a warm hearty laugh and a toothless smile is all I need from her to tell me I'm home . I Love You "My Ma Se" Mothercity !!
Well said! You can't help but love her, with all her quirks!! Cape Town is a special place, and I can't get over how beautiful the landscape is
From were are you?
❤
i hope to be a pilot one day 😊😊😊
😊👏👏👏
: )
That should be lose instead of close.
