Lucky nowadays these killjoys can easily be shutdown with proof.

Congrats man 🎉

Congrats Noel! The sound in this though... The mic on that headset takes up A LOT of ambient sound from the cockpit 😅

My brother operates an ex Belize Airforce Slingsby Firefly out of West Houston. More than happy for a meet-up and flight with a fellow expat Brit. There are a couple of Scottish Aviation Bulldogs still at West Houston, he used to own the 3rd ex RAF bulldog based there but it was recently sold. Again reach out if you are interested in a flight.

The sound was not great, but otherwise great video.

Get ready for an exponential spend!! A former English colleague upon getting his instrument rating, went on and got his commercial, then moved onto twins, then twin commercial, then twin instructor, then Bell Jet Helicopters (that alone in 1987 cost $20,000 for a weekend) forget about jets! (unless of course your other channel supports it).

Seriously, Noel. You take AV Geek to a whole different altitude and I'm here for it! Congrats!! ✈️

Bloody hell..! IR..? Clever fella. That plane looks well equipped compared to what I’m used to.! I’ve flown extensively in that area where you are but only when the sun shines..! Happy flightings. Cool airports, Beaumont and Midland for the museums. San Antonio for The Alamo and The Riverwalk,,Corpus Christi and go see the USS Lexington, if you can go as far as Tuscon AZ, try somewhere near Pima and the plane graveyard and excellent plane museum there. You can always get a car usually free at the FBO and take an hour or so out…

Love you following you on both of your channels - congratulations on your instrument rating! Such a lovely person to watch. Sending you best wishes from Leeds, England!

Congratulations! And on a side note.. May I suggest turning the volume down for ATC 'chatter' because it's quite hard to hear you..

Why don't you get Lasik

Wow, what a ritzy avionics suite. Didn't have that when I was Chipmunking. Interesting video.

School trip to Boulogne-sur-Mer. I did that too! Our coach took us to the Hoverport where we got the Hovercraft there and back as foot passengers. I remember us having to go and buy some lunch, talk to a local, and other language-practicing actifities. 🙂

💛💛💛

Great to see you back flying Noel, just love these vidoes. Congratulations passing the Instrument Rating 🧑‍🎓

Also how’s the American dream mate?? … it’s looking pretty sweet thus far! 😃👍🏻 (I’m from your neck of the woods, namely Nottingham so America seems very exotic! My aunty lives in Florida though, and I hear that’s pretty good for aviation)

Hey Noel, so glad that you’re posting on here again and congratulations on your latest certification! 👍🏻😃 … I was thinking you may have been giving the private flying a break with regards to your last post and the fact that it’s been so long. However I’m SO glad to see you still progressing and that you’re once again posting on here! 😉 Since having a family myself and being short on the pennies; as well as time; to continue with my flying hobby, I guess I’m living vicariously through you, and I’m extremely grateful for your videos mate! … keep them coming my friend👍🏻😃

Great vid is there any way to quieten down the background radio chat? I struggled to hear what you were saying! Thanks and no problem if it’s not possible!

Congratulations!

Great to see you again on this channel! 😊

Have you been down to Mount Pleasant Regional? Nice little airport with a great museum, no restaurant there as far as I can remember though. Scott Glover who runs the museum is super friendly, took me up in a number of his planes a few years pack then flew me to Austin to catch my BA flight home.

great news Noel. Ive missed thiis channel. hope you get further chances to film more

noel i recommend flying to orlando and visit disney world

Noel, since you’re at DWH, get a seaplane rating? With 17W-35W right there…

Congratulations on a major aviation milestone! Nice to see you back filming.

congrats but dont understand you talking with that mike so close are you not traveling anymore

Sort your radio out the sound was awful.

you might like fcp voice isolation and voice enhancement for your RT recording.

Congratulations Noel, Happy IFR flying.

Congratulations Noel

Been following you on KZbin for years Noel and think I’ve seen most of your videos what you have done to obtain your PPL and now your instrument rating is great keep that up,and keep the videos coming take care and enjoy everything you do 👍

Nice! I'm about to get mine!

Well Done That Man!

At last! After a year of boring business class flights around the World

Congrats! I got my IR ride end of this month. I own a C150 out in KIWS (West Houston, a stone throw away from Hooks) should def meet and have a fly out if you want!

Congrats Noel! That is the hardest rating to obtain no doubt! Congrats again! I reflect back on mine years back and I know how hard you had to work on getting yours! Keep the content up! Love that you are flying at UFS! Lots of friends are connected to them as I'm one of your local fans! Cheers!

So when are you going to get your commercial pilot's License and start Noel Phillips Airlines?

Congratulations

Well done pal

Well done Noel. Awesome.

Thanks for taking us along, Noel! I miss flying so much. It's been 25yrs now. Your bird has a fancy modern instrument panel for sure! Dang! Look at the screens! Nice😁Congratulations again, Noel. You're doing just great! 🦅🇺🇲💗✨️NICE!!

Well done on your instrument rating. How do you mount your camera on the wing? Are there special mounts?

Great to have you back Noel!

Nice to see a video from you again noel!, im actually about to complete my IR restricted at sunny gamston!. Listening to the US controllers it sounds so hard to understand compared to the UK, did you find the comms hard when you first starting flying over there?

You are the freaking best, Noel! I'd love to see you fly to Conroe-North Houston Regional Airport. I started taking pilot lessons there when I was 14 years old there. When I got to about 15 hours my instructor said I didn't have much else to learn until I soloed when I turned 16. Then money issues happened and I had to stop flying. I'm much older now but still have dreams of getting my license. Watching you allows me to live vicariously through you. Even if you don't get to my old home airport, I'll watch every vid you ever post. Thank you for what you do.

Now then Noel, as much as I enjoy both your channels mate, the audio in this video whilst flying is unlistenable (not sure that’s a real word), with you and the other guy over the radio..couldn’t hear a thing..all that aside, your vids are brill..

Sound was terrible 😢

Congrats!! Now you're ready to fly an A380!

A day late to the party, but congrats Noel! Great to hear some positive aviation-related news today.

Congrats Noel - enjoy the professional style of flying. Would still love to greet you at either EGNF or EGCA.... don't think you went to either despite it being so close to where you used to live..
