Amazing video as always. My favourite part is 9:26 where Noel says "let me know downstairs", then corrects himself.
Great flight, bit hectic at the start. Hopefully see you back one day over the Peak District Noel.
Yeah, I already know I'm going to get teary-eyed the second that I'm able to see the sky above the clouds, especially if it's a rainy departure. It'll probably be even more incredible than the first time I was ever on a plane. Just need the time off to plan a trip for the first time since 2020. Hell, if the new job I'm in the final round of interviews for this week pans out, I could even entertain getting back into flying as a hobby.
Very nice video. That moment above the clouds was just magic. Inspiring my PPL training. Stay safe.
You inspire me so much Noel. Thank you for sharing with us 👍❤️. I’m terrified of flying but do it so much. This definitely gives me more courage
Great video Noel, That looked hard work landing into the sun, well done.
amazing video noel i loved it
Wellesbourne sure is a busy airfield! A great video though of a very busy flight as well. Sadly I've tested positive for Covid but I have been watching so many videos including some of these and they are keeping me entertained. Great stuff Noel and keep up the great work!
Good call on the go around👍
Landing with the sun right in your face is tough enough, but it looks like the windscreen could have been cleaned a little better. Saw some water deposits. I was always a stickler for clear wind screens when I was flying, both on rented and owned aircraft.
Very enjoyable video Noel you are a great pilot.
A great clear prop shout today Noel! Wow how the landing fees have changed at Wellesbourne. Again another great vlog!
Ooh great save this for later with a cup off tea for happy viewing after work ,
Great to see someone with so much passion about what they do... long may it continue - even after your promised visit to EGNF :)
I had a bird strike just at rotation on Rway 18. Fortunately no damage just a mess to clean up when I got back to Lydd
So first things first, I had no idea that you had this channel, then I learnt that you aren't only VFR rated, but also IFR rated so well done Noel. You seem like quite a competent pilot. I had a flight experience in a Cessna 172 which I loved.
Thank you and thanks for coming over here :)
Can confirm those aerobatics are the seeds over Scampton! Always great to see on a sunny day in Lincolnshire
Nice video Noel. I'm currently doing my PPL at Wellesbourne and enjoyed watching this. I was flying G-BWND in the circuit as you took off (I heard my radio call), so apologies for adding to your stress level!
Haha it's just such a busy airfield! Best of luck with the PPL!
Hey again Noel, yeah, EGBW has always been a busy little place, gets even busier when they do a fast taxi run on the Vulcan, that brings the visitors in lol! Glad you visited the cafe too, I used to use it during my lunch break when I was working at the industrial estate to the left of RWY18 when you departed. Thanks for another great video, keep it safe fella, and I'll see you on the next one. :)
Cheers Paul, yes it's a nice little airfield if incredibly busy!
My home field Noel, great control staff and the breakfast in the Touchdown Cafe is a local legend 👍
GPS mate. Jumping into cloud is unreal, you get an awesome rush and get a good idea of just how fast you're going, highly reccomend
So sad to see the taxiways in disrepair at Wellesbourne. 😢 Brought back some fond memories.
Yes just a little on the bumpy side! A fun little airfield nonetheless though!
Head over to Oshkosh Noel,,,,,,,,lots of fun there .....
Been there done that - but it helps if you pass the control point 5 seconds before they close the airfield for the afternoon airshow.... :-)
Qt least wind wasn't too bad then clearly . Got a flight tomorrow in C152.. gusting 29kts..
5:09 "Oh shit" had me dying hahaha
My son skydives..and it’s always dependent on the weather and cloud coverage…yikes, that made me nervous seeing that..but, I guess they know what they’re doing..
I first saw you ton tiktok when you flew to Le Touquet i think. You also flew to where i got engaged
Great one!, have you ever done Eccles Aerodrome or Barton Aerodrome as some people like to call it?
Heaving the yoke in and out a few times with a strong wash can create a rocking movement to help free up the nosewheel. Was the food any good at Wellesbourne? Would love to know what waypoints you used from Wellesbourne to Gamston, and whether you took a basic service from Birmingham or East Midlands. Thanks for the video.
Would be a great idea for you to interview other TH-camrs in the air ? Other flight bloggers - like car pool karaoke with James Corden but on an aircraft would be amazing !
it wouldn’t work this coz of the ATC 😭😭
Someone could go in the front and ask the majority of the questions with the other guest in the back ? Noel could ask questions whilst not on the mic to ATC ?
@@Todd-Inns i guess but we will have to see in the future. it’s a good idea i’ve never thought about it
@@Adam-ob4xz yea I just though it would make for an interesting watch - you get the AV geek side ie the flying ATC etc and travel talk etc with guests would just take someone with the tools to put the concept in place 👍🏻
The idea has been floated, once I get a bit of time at home between trips on my other channel I'll be looking at doing this :)
It was the Red Arrows!!
The “skydivers IFR comment” was quite funny actually!😂🙄🤦🏼
I live half an hour from Wellesbourne
Where the heck is your ATC up here in Canada we have them talking to us all the time. Especially in a busy airspace.
Out of interest what are you using for navigation when above the clouds flying IFR? Looks like you don't have a GPS on the aeroplane so using radio nav aids I guess.
Hi Noel, I notice that you had a 4572 squawk on arrival into Gamston. Is that a local squawk code, similar to as there is over at Barton?
First time I’ve heard you swear! ( even though it was bleeped out)
Noel, Try flying into Oshkosh at the EAA Air Adventure one day, this would test you out :o)
how do you like your prescription flying eyes compared to your normal glasses? i fly a medivac PC12 and after a 14 hour duty day sometimes i get brutal headaches from my bose
Is TCAS or ads not yet required in the UK for GA flights
Yeah, I’ll stick to flying in the US thanks 😂
Enjoyed the chaos in this one! 😃
Haha! I mean you have the other extreme where everyone is talking over each other on the same frequency, but often completely ireelevant to you!
@@FlyWithNoelPhilips Meh, that’s just character building! 😂
Hi Noel. Would really love to know what waypoints you used from Wellesbourne to Gamston, and whether you took a basic service from Birmingham or East Midlands. (Would be great to have the Sky Demon log, but that's not practical I guess.) Thanks for the video.
Hi Colin, you can view my flight track here: flights.noelphilips.com/flight.php?flight=1059 (toggle UK Airspace on and it will show where the airspace is). I had a basic service from East Midlands (picked up when I got past Rugby).
@@FlyWithNoelPhilips You're a gentleman.
@@FlyWithNoelPhilips As a student I'm really interested in the detail. Can you tell me about the landing back at Gamston? It looks like you went around - I couldn't work out any other interpretation of the twice down the runway. And cos of airspace you have to approach the airport below 2000ft anyway, so what altitude would I use for an overhead join? Any wisdom much appreciated.
Yes I had to go around on this one due to the sun in my eyes and one on the runway that I couldn't clearly see. You approach below 2,000ft to remain inside the ATZ that only goes up to 2,000ft. Typically I hit the overhead at 1,500 and then descend, joining downwind at 1,000, all AGL.
Would you consider getting your CPL,I R MER, MCC, ATPL and starting a career as an airline pilot? Or flight instructor rating?
I'm at a bit of a crossroad now. I'm considering either CPL or Instructor rating, but also wouldl like to do my full IR and MEP at some point.
aAH - CLOSE - wait until you can look down into the cockpit of a Hunter and see how fast he's going, or have an A10 head on and you push he pulls vertical and his wingman takes a few seconds to do the same -had it all whilst flying my sailplane in the UK . The best is when the two 'Utterly Butterly' Stearmans formated on me off each wingtip, with the girls on top of the wings waving at me.
American reg at 0:23 how does that happen?
Didn’t see one stage of flaps for take off. Did you have a strong headwind?
No, we don't tend to use flaps in the Warrior unless it's a particularly short runway.
@@FlyWithNoelPhilips That’s changed then. I learnt with Cabair years ago and the PA28 checklist was 1/3rd for take off.
you’re lucky that time you came to Sywell there was an ATC. usually it’s packed up with people doing what they like and someone even crashed the C172 last week 😭
That's probably what has prompted them to change their PPR procedures with rather stern wording!
@@justbob588 it’s severely unsafe though 😭
@@Adam-ob4xz Agreed... plus the instrument approach they have in there just to make matters worse. They need to get some FIS coverage back.
I don't think I'd be able to fly as I just can't say "conspicuity".
No one seems to know what they’re doing!? - SERIOUSLY! 😆😆😆🤣🤣🤣🤣😆🤣😆
Sqawk 7000 XD
Don't You have an atc control for general aviation in England? Just to know Who Is around You. In this video you have risk an accident with an another aircraft 'cause You were not in radio control (?)
Wellesborne is an uncontrolled airfield, and the ATC is advisory only. This is pretty common. I believe the majority of airports worldwide are untowered
It's there if you want it, but too few controllers to cover too much of the country. I'd have that on a traffic service with Birmingham, but in reality I would have been out of their coverage within a few minutes so just went straight to East Midlands. Often not worth adding to their workload in uncontrolled airspace, especially when they're busy.
can i come with you?
