Outside of the MSFS development videos, I don't think I've ever seen any videos documenting the flight sim addon development process. At least not to this degree of detail. I think it's really awesome, and I would love to see more of it!

[@hobanagerik]

Have a look at some of the A2A videos of their Comanche development. There is one where they show them towing their Comanche with a car so they can get audio from the plane with the engine off.

[@chilaou]

Totally, I really enjoyed this. Here's hoping you can snag some more flights for our edutainment, because I loved seeing all the details of the plane, and seeing pilots do what they do. Cheers, man!

[@BrotatoFefins]

I’m glad the omaha approach guy still cranky like he was when I was training in that area 🤣 14:59

[@whophd]

I should have said this 5 years ago, but I really appreciate your subtitles of ATC communications. Normally I can never decipher 50% of the words, and maybe it's the poor reception from amateur radio publishers, or the acuity is different on pilot headphones - but probably it's just my aural mental faculties. I'm fine with quiet sounds, but moderately thick accents defeat me when other people understand it fine. Flipside of course is that I can read menus and roadsigns from 2x or 3x the distance of every other person travelling with me, and even bad photocopies and bad handwriting are like a superpower I can see through. Different brain muscles. I'd love on this channel a series of short fake-but-useful "training" videos that cover typical on-air chatter and help translate what's going on. People say stuff and swallow half the syllables, but with enough experience you probably figure out 50% or 75% from context clues. Which is scary, considering it's ATC. But just those final acknowledgements in a 4-part of 6-part conversation can be barely more than a masculine grumble and microphone click. The most mind-blowing thing is that magician trick you pull when a sequence of 12 taxiways is machine-gunned out for read back. (Makes me really wonder if a text display readout ATC channel shouldn't be slowly developed to operate in parallel? Surely that would help with the super-full-capacity airports like JFK and LHR).

[@whophd]

Cool, so I just discovered CPDLC is a thing. Not much good KZbin content on it yet.

[@whophd]

I can't believe I miss the hot mess of Steam Edition days. Did we misjudge its true value?

[@D_Flame16]

[@NMracing9424]

[@fivestringslinger]

Dude that is so cool. I've been watching you for years. I'm a private pilot with an instrument rating working towards my commercial. I live there in Lincoln. I work in the maintenance shop there at the Atlantic base there at KLNK so you were right outside of the 2 hangars I work in every day. I worked the line there for a couple years before moving into the shop. So I've driven those same tugs and fuel trucks and I recognized most of the line guys and talk to them almost every day. It was really cool to hear the controller's voices in the video because I hear them almost every time I fly. Wish I'd known you were there!

Lol. The pilot waves are amazing. Back when I worked on the ramp for AA, we'd have to wave off the pilots to let them know we're done, but I'd also wave at the passengers because I genuinely loved working there and getting people to where they're going.

[@TheBullethead]

Glad to see the Citation X will be available someday. I do love that plane. SO fast. Where I work, we have 1 as a base customer. I think its fastest groundspeed was 756 KNOTS, which the pilot showed me a pic of. But nowadays such speed in this size plane isn't deemed as desirable as a stand-up cabin. Cessna quit making Xs years ago and now makes Longitudes which are rather slower but more comfortable. Speeds in the X's class nowadays are only found in the big Gulfstreams and Falcons because when crossing oceans, speeds matters more than crossing part of a single continent.
