- Here is the last leg of out multi-day trip up and down the East coast. After some short delays out of Farmingdale, we made our way to Miami Opa-Locka Executive. There was no shortage of traffic in our way!
I love how you split the screens when landing so we see the landing strip and inside the cockpit at the same time.
Jon’s “vámonos” is getting classic! I like it!
Carlos Marquez yes, it’s like Arnie’s ”I’ll be back.”
It’s really a shame Jon is otherwise so camera shy
Another great video from Presidential 69. Love the new camera positions which provide a view of the entire cockpit. ATC comm. was outstanding! I live on Long Island where Farmingdale is located. Have never taken off from there but wondered what it would feel like. Hope you enjoyed your brief stay on LI ! Jon is quite the comedian! See you on the next video!
I like when he says "Ok Sean" it's comforting when they are changing things......
Another outstanding trip.
Enjoyed that one. Teamwork at its best.
You two guys are the best team of pilots
I appreciate the professionalism that you guys display when confronted with the situations in this video! I especially like the clowning around you do to deflate at the end of the video! You guys are my hero!!
Thanks!
You guys make it look easy. Great video.
Todd Metzger agreed, they make hard work, and intensive training, look easy
Another awesome Flight! Heavy traffic, good job spotting and keeping cool.
Lots of traffic on final...love to hear that TCAS, "Traffic, Traffic". Nice, solid flight. And a fun watch. Have a good one.
Man that was wild coming in guys. Birds and bogies.
That was a strange one, and got to love when you get a totally new flight plan just when you get up in the air. Then those small craft buzzing around at the landing..along with invisible bird reports on the runway, all had to make that a spicy day for you guys. Glad you took us along for it, and hope the coming weeks give you nothing but smooth ones after these last few..although I hear the aircraft's been grounded for some time now??Good time to get some rest, and catch up with the families and such ;)
That one was a bit exciting. The past few videos were from a few months back. I knew the plane was going into maintenance for a month, so I saved up some footage in an effort to keep the video releases going for you guys. The California trip has a little drama that some of you guys might like...it'll be out soon!
Looking forward to it. So are you guys back up in the air soon..or already, and can't wait to see the upgrade, although realize it was mostly in for maintenance.
Corporate Pilot Life Shaun......always planning ahead, lol.
Hey guys, great professionalism. I enjoyed the flight. Good job.
Thanks Shaun & John, you guys work so well together
Great job on your videos!!!!
Awesome videos guy's, thanks for taking the time to make them. Enjoy them very much.
Awesome work guys!
another good one guys!!
really enjoy that camera angle facilitating a good view of the cluster... airspeed and vertical rates; wow!
As always another wonderful video. Really enjoyed it, thanks guys!
Thank you very much . I just recently discovered your channel and I must say , I am favourably impressed. I realise it’s a lot of work , so again , thanks
I am always excited to see that you've posted a new video. There's something really enjoyable about watching you guys do your thing. Thanks!
You guys are great! Thanks for letting us share these flights.
Love the professionalism you two always have in the cockpit and when dealing with ATC, they was a tough flight it seemed like for you guys! Great job and keep the vids coming!
Busy approach! Great vid, thanks for bringing us along.
I was like ‘Yikes’ with all the traffic. Great video. It seems like y’all don’t get much time off.
Wow great read back on the reclearance 👍
You guys know your stuff.
Great job on the traffic and the birds..
Wow, what busy airspace. Goes to show that you must have absolute trust in those controllers. Great job keeping up the sit awareness!
Bryan from Vancouver
Trust...yes. Absolute trust...I don't know about that. HAHA!
17:52 - Cessna goes over the top of you guys seen through Sean's window. Closer than I would like, but I'm a low timer and not an expert like you two. Well done gentlemen.
Saw your bird sitting outside the GS hangar today. Looks like she's in one piece. Vacation is almost over.
Yeah...it's almost done. The're telling us another week or so. How's it look?
Corporate Pilot Life you won’t like the new paint job: pink and black. Personally I feel the new pink fuzzy dice dangling in front of Jon’s seat is tacky
Hard to tell from the road doing 50 MPH, but she does look clean. I think I saw her about a week and a half ago with no engines. Might have been another bird though.
Warren Percell Those new props look really shiny........😬
Corporate Pilot Life The new props are installed and polished......... 😬
Nice Video, Keep up the good work!
Another great video!
watching those auto throttle is a little freaky. When they gave you the 250 restriction I was expecting them to back off but remained still. then a few shots later it looked like the yaw damper was working overtime. Cool Stuff!
Loved the "ughh" when they issued a reroute. I know the feeling! You guys can't catch a break up there in ZNY lately!
Tell me about it!
Good video, good flight. Thanks for posting
Yay!!! Thanks for getting FRG in there! Lunch on me next time.!!!
Information overload going into Opa-Locka. Great job guys!
Right on my back yard . Sent you way east while amending the clearance . Sometimes flying in New York sucks.
Nice...right over ILM!
Just havin coffee when the video uploaded!!! Great flight guys!!!
Man, you've got that altitude selector spin down to an art!
That one takes lots of practice...
Good stuff always look forward to next one
That was a little busy at the end there. Good stuff.
What was up with that freakin reroute?! Awesome vid guys, thanks for all you do!
No joke...
ATC to pilot in over their head: "Pay attention!"😂
Another great video guys!
Great flight guys good skills always a pleasure cheers
Great video as always presidential 69
Man, you guys earned your paycheck on this flight. New flight plan en route... had to stay low for awhile burning up JP out of NY. Then near destination rubbernecking looking for traffic into Opa Locka. Sometimes I think Tcas is more of a distraction. ATC is pretty good about advising of near traffic.
Wow, atc seemed quite busy, but you guys run like a finely tuned machine. Love your vlogs.
Thanks!
You guys sure had your hands full on approach. Nice work.
Very nice work guys.
Great one. Got a little busy coming into Opa-Locka
Great as always. Lot's of small planes down there. Could create some tense nerves sometimes I guess.
Man, you guys almost had it all during that flight. And Jon lands the bird so smooth, like he's kissing his sister!
BAHAHAHAHAHA! That one just made my day!!
R Fish oh gawd, I’m outta here
(Puking noises)
Thanks for the video!
awesome job as usual
Thanks guys good video. I learned to fly out of KISP in the 70”s so scenery is very familiar. Not as much traffic back then 😂.
Great video, earned paycheck this flight.
Thanks Shaun, I was going through withdrawals while your baby is in for maintenance!
Very enjoyable flight to Miami.I with nice time there. I following you through YTUBE.
Great one!
Shaun, I’ve got a general aviation lifestyle question for you.
As a non-aviator, my favorite aviation story is known as “LA Speed Check.” It’s a story told by a retired Air Force SR-71 pilot. You can find this story on TH-cam by searching LA speed check.
How famous is this story amongst professional corporate pilots?
Well I cant speak for other pilots, but that's certainly one of my all time favorite stories. My guess is that it's pretty well known...
“Untouchables” and “Sled Diver” are two great books by Brian Shul you should own if you don’t already Doug.
Awesome vid
Another good vid. Love 'em!
Got some good sprays in today above you.
Thanks for the flight
Good job Shaun, your videos keep getting better. Ha, I just knew Jon was a prankster
Great video guys.Will Francine be back soon? We miss her.
Great Vid ! I was wondering when Jon will tell us he's career path to the G-IV ;)
Clément Le Brun spoiler alert: after an amazing career as an international criminal mastermind and Bond villain, Jon wanted to settle down and become an operatic tenor.
His new wife wanted none of THAT s*** and put her foot down.
The rest is history
Loving it!
You guys should stop by KISP sometime! we're not as busy as KFG haha love to meet you guys too, keep up the awesome work!
Nice view of the Great South Bay and FIre Island.
That was a really long change! Can they not send it to you to print in cockpit and/or upload into FMC??
Had to look up what 29F was as its C here in NZ.
29F is -1.6C and 22F is -5.5. BLOODY COLD!
Edit as getting to end. Was cool seeing that lightie go over you - but there was close traffic!
Question: The button to the right of it is PULSE by looks? Does that flash landing lights each side? Why the LDG LIGHTS weren't turned on? Capt turned taxi light on on finals, which showed ON when gear came down.
Another brill video chaps!
They cant send us that route change with the equipment we currently have. Once we get the CPDLC equipment installed, then that will be a possibility. The PULSE switch does exactly that...alternates the landing lights on and off. It will turn the left one on, then the right, and so on. We turn the taxi switch on when we are cleared to land, it's just our little reminder if we are cleared to land or not. It won't actually turn the light on until the gear comes down, as you saw.
Corporate Pilot Life Awesome thanks for answering. Found pic of yr gal tonight. Blues my fav color!
Lots of front end wobble on the yoke @12:40..might want to check the front ball joints!..
mrabrasive51 lower control arm.
The chimney dampener lol.,
It's actually in maintenance right now. That's one of the things they are looking at.
Hopefully maintenance is checking the rigging as well.
mrabrasive51 as long as they fix the beer tap, who cares about the rest
Great video as usual. Hope you make it to my home airport in Cali. KSTS. Would love to meet you guys.
That would be great! I'll let you know if we get a trip to the Santa Rosa Area...
Awesome video! You guys sure earned your chocolate chip cookies today! "What the heck were they doing with you guys at center?
Costing us fuel...
Awesome answer
Hehe, they’re probably here, subrscibers to the channel
"3000 remaining" ... computer voice "3000 remaining" "I JUST SAID THAT!" And hey! we got a smile from Jon at the end!
GEEZ! A bee hive!
I like how you gentlemen keep a (strict) look out for other traffic. Thanks for great VLOG and editting! Is your name spelled Shaun? If you ever go into John Wayne and have a few hours, I'll fly you over to Catalina Island for a bite! Continue safe flying and keep up the good work!
That would be awesome! Haven't been to John Wayne for a few months, but hopefully soon. And yeah, its spelled Shaun. Thanks for checking!
Got lucky with the knob from 6000 to 5000. one swift turn... good move
That was straight up skill...with some luck mixed in...hehe...
Deberían tener una línea Conga sobre Opa-locka con todo ese tráfico. ¡Que gentio!
Good morning Captain's.
You ever make it to OGG Maui where I live? Jon seriously needs some Maui Jim shades.
I've been to Maui, but never on this plane...only on an airline. I keep telling Jon to get some Maui Jims, but he likes his Costas.
You guys must have an airline shorthand to write all those waypoints as fast as they read them out. I like the split screen you have for landing. Would it be possible in your editing to show where the planes are that you see. I may be blind, but I did not see even one of the ones in this video. No big deal if you can't make it happen. I enjoy watching!
I always try to do that, but I usually can't see them on the video either! LOL It's so much easier to see them in person versus on the video.
You flew out of my home airport 😱😱😱😱😱.
WHEW!!! Boy, that was a busy flight, Shaun. I was trying to follow you on Google Earth, out of Farmingdale, but I got lost as to where they routed you right after the takeoff. When they turned you to 280, I couldn’t find that long strip of land that had the highway on it. Anyway, it sure was busy there at Opa-Locka. There seemed to be a lot of traffic around that area, while you were on your approach. And, then there were the birds. Are birds a normal factor there at Opa Locka? Anyway, great job on the whole trip. You guys really looked tired once you finally got back home. Hope you got some rest. Look forward to the seeing the trip to California. BTW, Shaun, did you post a video for Nassau to Farmingdale leg? If you did, I couldn’t find it. I did watch the Ft. Meyers to Nassau video. Good job on that landing in Nassau, Shaun. Anyway, great job on the videos, and I really enjoy watching you two guys working together. Happy Flying, and safe landings.
Hey Richard! It sure was a busy flight. I didn't record the Nassau to Farmingdale leg. All of my cameras were dead with full memory cards. Also, it was at night, and the footage is always very poor with low light. Birds are constantly an issue for us; we don't want to suck one of those things into an engine! I'm working on the next video as we speak...might be a few days, but it's on the way!
Thanks for the reply, Shaun. Makes sense why you didn’t record that Nassau-Farmingdale leg. I wouldn’t either, if I were in your shoes. Hope ya’ll never have to deal with birds in the engine(s). Look forward to the next video. Happy Flying, and safe landings.
Wonderful editing very professional flying Wish they had a G-IV for my Simulator thanks
I’m familiar with BEADS intersection. BlueStreak (Piedmont/American Eagle) and other jets use it in and out of airports on the Connecticut shoreline.
Stressful approach!
Is this Farmingdale, Long Island? If it is, and this is going to sound very weird, but I have an uncle who is buried in a cemetery just across from Republic Airport.
My family is originally from Ireland and this great uncle of mine was something of a lost sheep of the family. I just recently established his resting place there. Poor guy never married and flipped over when he was 48. I hope to visit there someday. I guess, for now, this is as close as I'll get.
Yes indeed...this is Farmingdale, Long Island. Very interesting...I hope you get to see it someday
Poor Baby it's cold outside. Florida temps, I live in Texas, but travel to Canada every winter. You gotta love the chills, the only thing that bothers me is the wind. Canada -30 no wind no problem, Texas 35 and 30 mile wind, BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
I know what you're talking about. I grew up in North Texas, and I fully agree.
Me, Wichita Falls, now West Texas, Love all the adventure segments between flights
Shaun, are those Maui Jim sunglasses your wearing ?
Yep...best glasses I've ever owned
Teamwork makes a difference in any job and Where is Francine? I miss seeing her waves and smiles
She's on the California trip...it'll be released soon
earned your money today...thrill a minute. :-) great video as always...
I think we need some CPL “Vámonos" merch
those are the students on the practice area!!!! to tough to seen on a fast airplane... also near FXE are a another bunch of them
You were originally a wavey departure weren’t you? I’m ATC in the area and we couldn’t figure out why they were rerouting the FRG departures
I believe so
