My trick with keeping the "wacking" off the governor is bring the torque up to bring the prop to full rpm then the power lever can be briskly brought up to takeoff torque
Usually when I think C-208 I think, “We do weddings and funerals.” I love how this is big enough to really do many of the things you’d want to do with a boat but it’s a plane!
The guy wants to put gear down for a water landing. After take off... "I'll get the frequencies figured out". "Speed is good, we'll bring it down to, oh i dunno 80, 85 knots on final..." Stay safe y'all. lol.
Hey Matt, hope you had a good experience parking that big bird down in the South 40 @ OSH22! Let me know if the South 40 Flight Line Ops team and I could have done anything to make your stay any better 👍
Yep, if that plane was new I bet video of jumping off the wing would void the warranty! But how cool is that (sigh)? Everything about the Caravan 208 makes you feel warm and fuzzy. Tennessee
That girl is not exactly a WWE star. She was petite. And in no case walked on an aileron or flap. A grand caravan is not a 152. It has relatively strong skins. I doubt the aircraft was damaged for a photo shoot. If it was, it would be visible.
Bruh, I pray one day I have the financial ability to go on the adventures u put out on here. I've been training to get my PPL for almost 2 years, FAA and financial related setbacks have really screwed me since 2021. However, I'm glad I'm so close to finishing. Your videos are awesome
Crazy how they just act like this is casual… my god, all my life we told to me that going up on a wing of any plane was totally the thing that we dont want to do…
Peach fuzz needs to have this airplane taken away from him and be put back in a C-172. Calling for the gear on a water landing is inexcusable. Matt put the gear handle down, too, but then picked up on the error, at least. ALWAYS think before you flip any switch or operate any control.
Thanks Matt - your skills as a pilot and your calmness continue to impress me. You are really good at what you do! Thanks for all the great videos and I wish you and your family and friends everything of the best as you continue your journeys into the new year and beyond. Be well and I am looking forward to watching your next video adventure. 🎉👍🙂
Letting people get on the wings is super disrespectful to the owner of the airplane. If you're not stepping on ribs, you WILL dent the sheet metal, or what happens when somebody slips with wet feet and gets hurt? That is an airplane, not a toy. Not cool dude.
Stupid things people do for views. Matt is definitely very talented pilot but his videos definitely showcase his complacency. Not a very good example new pilots
Keep in mind that the wings carry the aircraft through the air. They are designed to take high loads. To give you a perspective, the wingload on a Cessna Caravan is 31.3 lbs./sq. ft. (152,82 kg / sqm).
@@GonTanakaII Greetings fellow aircraft admirer. I’m not going to question your ~30lbs/ft2. My concern is that… although your girlfriend may have a giant Samsquench foot…. Your hairy gal would be more than 30 thingy you said. 🤓
Unreal what this guy gets to do at his age. My colour blindness means I'll likely never be able to be a pilot. Tough hit considering it's the only dream I've ever had since childhood. And this guy lives like he's a billionaire. How 😩
Share your disappointment but there is a medical defer way...Started the process then a heart attck shut me down again. NO more hurdles but at 70 not sure I will get it done Dam.
good people???!1 i WOULD NOT BE STAMDIG O THAT WING TO DIVE. EVER HEARD OF TORQUE??? FORCE x DISTANCE??? WILL DEEP SIX THAT EXPENSIVE PLANE IN A MINUTE1 \
To treat a plane like this, is a nogo! It’s not a water toy. It’s an airplane from someone else. Right? Not cool at all. Think about this behavior to the airplane. 👎👎👎
Heads up call on the gear Matt! Glad someone up front was asking questions!
Probably the most fun you can have in a pair of shorts.
Another incredible video, getting me very excited for Oshkosh all over again! Tom Dafoe was such a incredible man and a inspiration to live up to! ❤
This has been, and will always be, my dream plane. I've loved it since I first saw one as a young kid
It only takes one lotto ticket to win.
Yeah me too! Don't have many of them here in Europe though
that callout on landing is hilarious. "GEAR IS DOWN FOR RUNWAY LANDING."
NIce pic of the Seaplane base, volunteered there in 22, will in 23 stop in and visit....... Thx

Yep I do the same!

I flew right seat in that plane in Burlington VT July '23; landed on lake Champlain and jumped off the wing too.
You believe in God?
You've got me excited for OSH23. Can't wait!
That was my dream decades ago. Get rich enough to retire and go bumbing around in a Caravan on floats.
Amazing. Looking forward to flying a seaplane
How stable is that plane that you can jump off the end wing tip ! Awesome Video. Thanks for posting.
Good on Ya Matt…………thanks for your time.
It’s all fun and games till some ass slips an falls on the aileron an you can’t take off anymore
Yep, complete disregard for someone else's very expensive property.
I hope the idiot flying it is the owner. @FAA
On the adventure of a lifetime Matt. I would pay to go on one flight with you. keep up the journey dude.
Good catch on the gear!
LOL, this guy supposedly has 150 hours on this plane and called gear down water landing. OOPS. At least someone was paying attention.
Flip over and drown with wheels down on water landing?😮
What an adventure! Looks cool to take a dunk in the middle of the lake from an airplane. Flying it half naked afterwards looks good too.:-)
Geez.....that thing is HUGE!!!
Matt has some of the biggest critics watching his channel. Every video has someone pointing out something wrong 😂
Spoiled trust fund babies spewing their garbage on the internet because they were slapped around in school deserve critics.
Because we have seen all to many pilots just yolo'ing it and getting themselves and others killed. It's not a game.
@@TheFlyingZulu I agree.

This looks so fun!
The greaser has landed
This guy is clueless 😂 nice work matt

are yall up in friday harbor right now?
I keep seeing a caravan on floats at the airport and the pilot looks just like you
You told him to take his speed to Vne? For flaps? Mean Vfe?
Well, "OK" but isn't using the thing for a diving platform a bit hard on the sheet metal?
Do you really think boy wonder cares? He's not paying for it, his sponsors and viewers do, along with his "friends".
@@s35bonanzapilot84 ouch, boy wonder, you sound like jealous
A control surface could be damaged
That girl is not exactly a WWE star. She was petite. And in no case walked on an aileron or flap. A grand caravan is not a 152. It has relatively strong skins. I doubt the aircraft was damaged for a photo shoot. If it was, it would be visible.
Saw one of these aircraft years ago. Crazy how tall they are.

Hang in there buddy. I'm just getting my checkride scheduled after being inspired by Matt myself!!
@@cykablyat473 thanks so much, and that’s awesome 👏🏾 👏🏾👏🏾. I hope you pass on your first attempt. I wish you many great flying adventures
Pilots are brave letting other guys fly their planes. I don’t even like other people driving my truck.
Happy New year from Sydney Australia.
🌏🇭🇲
my dream plane maybe one day
A shirtless Guthmiller video. Be still, my beating heart. 😄
Great video. Looks like a cool rig.
...we flew under a Bonanza in a 737 between Halifax and Toronto ... the piolet let us all know ... just curious if it was yours ??
Que loco todo eso che!!!😅😅😮😮👌👌🦾🦾🧿🧿✈✈
Do they not do any readbacks at Oshkosh?
Not really, there's so much going on that they don't really want you doing readbacks unless they're asking you a question
What PIC would allow pax to go up on the wings? Are you insane? Does the owner know this happened?
Crazy how they just act like this is casual… my god, all my life we told to me that going up on a wing of any plane was totally the thing that we dont want to do…
They do now 😂
My first real job in aviation was with MAF who famously operate the amphib vans
Flying boat literally...fine job...
That looks soo fun! Nice video!
Somebody was walking and dove off the wing?!? The wing can support the weight of one person?
dang brother. VERY nice bird, doing what its made to do
Why are people allowed on top of the wing?

Is the guy in the right seat 3/4 U.S 1/4 AUS/NZ?
I didn’t hear any read backs to tower. Are y’all just editing through it?
At OSH the pilots don’t talk per the Notam. Other than emergencies
Cool vlog 😊
Aviation at its best 🙏
Matt who’s the Aussie Caravan Driver?
Nice
“YES IT IS.” 😂

i dont see a dent buddy.

The owner is flying right seat, you Karen. I bet you yell at people walking too fast by the pool.
@@idekav. do it to your own boat. It’s about respect.
Matt, who’s Caravan?
Who’s old mate Aussie there? Wouldn’t mind having a chat to him about a few things.
Matt seems like a know it all, every response is yeah.
All of my 3500 hours of C208 time smelled like card board or sweaty sky divers.
Cardboard. FedEx? Haha!
Last thing I thought I would see... A Bentleys Saloon sweatshirt...
The most expensive flying diving board
Do float planes carry an anchor?
Not typically. Too heavy.
What a difference the turbine makes lol
That must be your friend from Boston.
Tell by accent.
Nice shorts
U look nice matt
ghey
Damned nice video! Awesome plane. Great pilot.
I hope it was consensual when you whacked the Governor off
GEAR IS DOWN FOR RUNWAY LANDING👹
Surprised the wings are strong enough to run and jump off 🙀

👹GEAR IS DOWN - RUNWAY LANDING 👹
touch the flaps, touch the gear.
I wouldn't let them stand on my wings
Living the life. :-)
So is this the first time you fly a plane half naked
Remember that every one is standing there and waiting for you to hit something and get it out on TH-cam. Just saying. Have fun in the New Year!
The day I let somebody jump off the wing of an airplane I own
How do people this young have a multi-million dollar aircraft?
@7:00 Gear takes a really long time Matt so start doing that right noowwww... LMAO 🤡🤡🤡
Dude in the right seat loves to talk, doesn't he?
He’s teaching
Kinda not cool to jump of the wing, it will break
Living the lie.🎉
🤗
Two recommendations, a gym membership and some more time in the sun. You got the flying stuff figured out. Thanks for sharing. 😁
Trust fund life.
Interesting accent

It was the girl not the pilots
Caravan is a terrible floatplane you’ll have to come to AK again and fly a real one
What exactly is a real one because when I was in AK all I saw was cheap bush planes with cheap beat up floats
@@matthewtipton8729 Beavers!
@@bedhogmeg yea no beavers are nice but I’ll take a turbine of a radial anyday especially in AK🤣
@@matthewtipton8729 All hail the turbine !
@@matthewtipton8729 a beaver with a turbine is one hell of a plane. But a beaver in general is an awesome plane
Seriously?! You treated a precise and accurate aircraft, as the bouncy-castle. That has to be April fools day… no man would let their woman do that…😂
These guys talk too much
That is completely obnoxious letting your GF walk on and jump off that wing…..no doubt the rest of you did it too. Just an entitled little rich kid
Do I hear the remnants of an Aussie accent from the right seat...? @mattguthmiller
