Great thanks for sharing and thanks for the honesty, easy mistake to make when operating underneath controlled airspace and the variation between QNH and QFE. Safe flying.

Such a gotcha that one. I have just done an online course after busting Southamptons CTR, not a doddle, I have to say, and not for an altimeter error but I very much enjoyed the one on two Zoom course (the other infringer was a Citation pilot) of 4.5 hours duration and it heavily rammed home altimeter management. Personally, I now choose to fly on QNH into land away airfields, it's not a big deal to have the airfield elevation noted and fly that. Compton Abbas have elected to only pass QNH to arrivals (QFE on request), flying the circuit at 1800 feet and landing at 800 feet. This system is far less likely to put you into a CTR busting situation if you forget to change to QNH before taking off. I think I am now a better prepared pilot after having "switched off" during a long, no flying period, (5 months) due waterlogged farmstrip. Good topic. You have to work at not infringing.

What a pack of knobs.

I thought the focus was going to be on the views of Jersey, not the pilots. (Smile.)

Great video, I’m going to do my cross channel checkout soon and this video has me so excited. Nice one 👍🏽

Wellesbourne is one of my 2 landing locations for QXC coming up in the next few months. Very much looking forward to it

Actually appreciate you posting the mistake. My airmanship back in 1998 in the US was fine but only re-started lesson after a 20 year absence and I'm finding there's a lot more going on and it's hard to keep on top of things, i.e. aviate, navigate, communicate. My comms in the UK is/was dreadful and I remember in one lesson, I went from 1300ft to 700ft to 1700ft when we were in Controlled Airspace "not above 1,500ft". Stangely enough, my (now previous) instructor just sat there and didn't say anything until after the infringement.

We've become a nation of hi viz, lanyard wearing lemmings

Remember Sywell from EMA, landed & took off from there many times in the 90's in a Cessna 152. Once the seat shot all the way back then another time the master switch started smoking. Great airfield though. Hucknall more of a challenge.

I would have kept G-BYGC in the BOAC livery instead. The Negus livery is honestly uninspiring.

radio Rach great radio comms.

Well done Dan. Great video as well.

Great and fantastic video i really enjoyed it thank you 🙂

fantastic

I've watched a few of your videos and they're candid and interesting ; we all make mistakes as certified pilots and it's good to see those analysed and shared. I do however disagree fundamentally with the concept of these grey-charter wingly flights, especially if you are not commercially certified. You were probably very close to MAUM on this trip - would you have accepted 3 adult pax if they were family or friends and not 'cost sharing' ? (I know I wouldn't... certainly not on a XC into a relatively short runway) It might have been within the envelope of the POH numbers (just) but the impact on performance and handling at the top of the chart is profound, and the POH figures for a 40 year old aircraft should be treated with a massive pinch of salt. I wonder if your pax were properly cognizant of the risk they were taking on this pleasure trip. Sorry to sound harsh... Safe flying.

So refreshing to see you post videos like this. I feel a lot of the KZbin channels would cut out or simply not upload a flight if something like this happened. A bad landing happens to us all. I once did the triple jump landing into Shoreham years ago... Narrow runway complete through off my depth perception. Safe flying Adam.

Its a tight circuit. People need remember aircraft meaning they are not using train tracks. Yes its important to avoid + sensitive areas. Even few people moan about the F1 tracks. What headings do you use for your downs winds?

Great video! I did my PPL at the Jersey Aero Club..so it was great to hear DT the PA28 I did my first solo in on the radio just as departed 26!

Should be 124.6 not 124.600 for frequency!

Luckily you were able to steer it around the corner with the yoke. 😆

Hi great video 1 question how did you get the comms on to the GoPro

What's going on with your artificial horizon?

Ha this was my fathers old plane GBSLK! Colour scheme has changed since the 1990's

So inspiring. Amazing interview. Best of luck to Katie in her career & Robin in her retirement & gypsy lifestyle lol

So are you supposed to stay to the qnh outside of the controlled airspace or the qnh within as I read they do differ?

Love Iris!

Dislike for an "owner" of a club? Owns the club?

Good for you for posting. Not the easiest of things, by any means! Bravo!

this is a great video for me, who has recently started my flight training on the PA-28. It was a bit of a different model, with the trim wheel being down near the flap lever instead of overhead. I'm loving it so far, can't wait to get my PPL!

Literal newbie here. Can you explain that violation please?

I've decided i want to go for my pilot license and booked in for a taster to make sure. It looks so good!

Hello Adam . I am back here again. How are you doing ? I remember you saying you had some struggles if i remember correctly, i hope that they are resolved now. Its a tricky time now it really is. You know more than me probably. Have you been flying lately? In case you forgot, I fly a c152 from enstone flying club. I remember you saying that you needed a medical done as you had an operation. But that was AGES ago. Regards, Simon

G-MKAS I remember that aircraft being (re)registered to MK Aero Support at Andrewsfield, the owner then being Massoud Khsohkhou (the MK in MKAS) 🙂

Just a quick observation you might be able to answer... I noted that (I think) a video camera was attached in close proximity to the compass. If that is the case, is there any noticeable deflection?

How often do you have to wear are uniform wild deadheading or in public seems like you would be annoying with everybody asking you so many questions?

This is great, i'm a filmmaker so really enjoyed the production but in my spare time i'm a 'pixel' pilot flying in MSFS2020 mainly in VR so I really like these videos which show rw pilots using radio comms and how they approach cross country flying. You're both excellent pilots to effortlessly fly across the pond, pick up ATC which in parts was hard to hear and have two very happy punters in the back. Great stuff! SUBBED!

Fair play. A go around isn't a failure, it's a sign a pilot has made a safety conscious decision.

Very impressive radio skills

So it's not going to be rented out for flights it's just a display?

Hats off. Kept your cool whilst trying to talk to atc whilst others in the plane were talking. Do you not have the function to isolate yourself from their headsets?

Great videos! What lens do you use to virtually remove the prop from the wing cam?

That sound 😍

4 years late, but who won this?

Great video and def inspired me to go to IOW in the spring from my local airfield of COV 👍

What route do you take from Wells to bambridge? Thanks

No requirement for life jackets over the solent?

Good old Glynn from Almat Flying Academy there to meet you 🤣

How did brum think you were at 2000'? From the video the max you were at on altimeter was 1650' and diff between the QNH you were on and the QFE is only 100' so you can't have been more than 1750' ?

So easy to do, especially when in your head you'd already thought you were going to have a long final as well

My local airport. Shame that its about to go for good as I loved training there when it was under full ATC. You visibly went red when the controller told you to call Brum atc
