Thanks for the compliment ... just my own footage, compiled into a series, of the flying I do around the world, as a pilot or passenger. Hoping to inspire next generation of pilots.

I just love the music you put in the videos!

Checkout Day 3 and let me know what you think?

[@PilotCalhoun]

Hello Deon Im a low hour CPL with instrument. Im still trying to acquire my first flying job. I have always been interested in being a bush pilot in the African Safari. I was wondering if there was a way I could skype with you and just ask you questions about how it works and what life is like ect.? Thank you for these amazing videos.

[@DeonMitton]

Thanks Ethan - it might be better to contact some of the pilots who actively fly the Africa bush...

[@mrsako7223]

Hello Ethan, since it’s been a year for your post, how did you go about finding that first job? I’m asking as I’m on the same boat, just finished my CPL and instrument rating.

[@PilotCalhoun]

@@mrsako7223 Yeah man Im doing great now almost have 900tt. I ended up getting checked out in 182 and then going through the jumpersaway course. Was offered a job before I even finished the course as skydive pilot. I had 292tt when I finished the 4 day course. Built time in summer 2021 as skydive pilot then got a part 91 job flying lawyers now. Its tough but if your persistent and willing to sacrifice a lot you can do it too.

[@mrsako7223]

@@PilotCalhoun that’s great to know man! I’m glad there’s a possibility of progression. I’ve applied to several operators, just waiting on a response atm. Goodluck and all the best Ethan!

[@kabzaify]

We should invest in manufacturing this types of planes

[@DeonMitton]

Do it !!

[@savageryflyer5391]

Man this is wonderful, is there any chance for an European FI ~600 total time to work over there? Right now flying as instructor on small cesnnas!:) always wanted to do bush flying and now with corona even more. Hope to get in contact with you.

[@DeonMitton]

Not sure - you'll have to contact the operators direct.

[@savageryflyer5391]

@@DeonMitton will try to send a mail to your operator, don't think it's easy right now to get into it, is it? Am very willing to go down there!

[@alexanderwalley2639]

Hey Deon! Love your content. Ive got a question; im a pilot, and im still trying to decide what area i want to create a career in (Commercial, Corporate, cargo etc..) How did you get to the position that you are now?

[@maximilianlanik7343]

I feel like I´ve seen this episode already...is that a reupload?

[@DeonMitton]

Yes - I mentioned in my feed, I had to re-upload - but stay tuned - episode 3 is out soon.

[@scottpiette]

Hi there, do you have to be nimble to get out of the 208ex????

[@DeonMitton]

lol - no just to get in !

[@Jay-hr3rh]

What's the padlock on the house gate for?

[@DeonMitton]

It's not a padlock - it's a cow/goat bell. Used as a "bell" to signal visitors and I guess unwelcome visitors.

[@Jay-hr3rh]

@@DeonMitton I'm a city boy in America. I don't know these things. Thanks for your response.

[@DeonMitton]

@@Jay-hr3rh Yip - in the rural areas, lots of things are different and safety of people and domestic animals are key... with wildlife roaming around, these systems are designed as early warning systems too. Big cats are known to roam through the residential areas too.

[@Jay-hr3rh]

I want to thank Ian. I have learned so much about flying canavan from him. I very much appreciate you sir.

[@IanChamberlain]

@@Jay-hr3rhthank you for the nice comment and I am glad you have learned a thing or two. Good luck on the future plans.

[@iqbalsandu8182]
