[@audiophile1024]

William, you must be so proud of her. Congratulations!

[@williamh.scottv438]

Thank you. I am proud of her.

[@god6888]

Alina fans club from India ❤ lots of love

[@johnwatts9932]

Such a great pilot Alina is so calm and confident... .. What's interesting is that you feel your being taken along for the flight too.. And it's great looking down at the American country side.. Not too much difference than the English country side.... Great video..

[@459buster]

Thoroughly enjoy your videos of Alina, such a confident self aware young pilot.

[@letvalentino100]

Очень интересно! Я восхищён! Спасибо за классное видео!

[@winkfinkerstien1957]

Thanks for sharing! I experience a lot of joy watching you both interacting with each other. I am truly happy for your entire family. 😎👍🏻

[@alkennedy1124]

I’m glad to see eye protection,thanks BigAl California, nice flying, good job. Thanks

[@briandavis7574]

Very cool. She will have a bright future in aviation. I have so many questions. I would love to see more of the electrical switches and panel up above her and where is the flap swicth? Also is that a push to talk switch on the yoke? Just started looking into these aerolites.

Молодець дівчинко!!!

Hi...Alena....love you so much 💓

[@scopex2749]

I was at LaCrosse air show many moons ago went to see the Blue Angels - I can see them getting a new member in a few years! I like how quick this aircraft gets airborne. Question William - I watched a video of the Aerolite being built it comes as standard with a 'twist grip' throttle/ brake assembly. I notice Alinas bird has a side LEVER throttle - did you modify this as it seems a lot easier to use?

[@williamh.scottv438]

Nope. Came like that.

[@genegross2252]

I lost track of time watching you fly, maybe you could give us a run down of the instruments?

[@williamh.scottv438]

Yeasu 550 and Garmin 196.

[@nobelikaranio6543]

Witam, wspaniałe widoki. Czy ta rura aluminiowa pod siedzeniem i zbiornikiem ugina się podczas lotu, czy to tylko moje subiektywne wrażenie. Pozdrawiam serdecznie Alina fajnie lata.

[@williamh.scottv438]

I think you are seeing a camera effect, not actual distortion.

[@davidcouch6514]

I notice now that you mention it.

[@fredyrichard]

It's always frustrating not to see the end of the video... 😅

[@tyleroneill2636]

Did you watch it until the end? Then you seen the end of the video

[@williamh.scottv438]

@@tyleroneill2636 yes!

[@herbertandkira]

Sehr schön. Ich bin in Canada mit meinem Bruder in einem ähnlichen UL mitgeflogen. Du fliegst da sehr gut, bleib vorsichtig was um dich herum so fliegt dass du gut wieder nach hause kommst. Wünsche Dir viele schöne Flüge. Wie heisst das UL und Motor. 😊

[@chrisgoetz3889]

Airolite 103 😁👍

[@herbertandkira]

@@chrisgoetz3889 Thanks, my brother also flies UL in Canada . Not allowed in Switzerland. I flew a Cessna in Switzerland. Wish you nice flights✈️👍

[@khoudaiqbal7015]

❤❤❤

[@johnb1895]

ok Alina so how old are you now and what age did you start flying ? I have always wanted to fly. I'm 44 never to late to start thinking about it. Is that Yellow and blue plane your first plane ? do you fly by watching time as i see your tanks aluminum or does you got a fuel gauge on dash ?

[@williamh.scottv438]

She still 14. She starter flying this airplane when she was 14. It's her first plane. She has a fuel gauge but the flights are planned so that fuel should never be an issue.

[@fs6622]

Fill 'er up ... high test please. Didn't clean the windshield??😎

[@jmug68]

How is your Aerolite spec'd out (engine, fuel capacity, etc.)? Also, I have been looking into what they offer and was wondering if the digital panel is worth getting over the analog panel (mainly visibility over the analog gauges). I plan on getting a Garmin 196 as well mainly for the GPS mapping.

[@williamh.scottv438]

It has a Kawasaki 440cc engine with electric start. I don't think they offer that anymore unless you ask for it. It's a simple engine and reliable. I didn't bother with all the fancy instruments. Just the standard. And yes the 196 is good. I added a battery that's charged by the engine and also powers the 196.

[@jmug68]

@@williamh.scottv438 Thanks for the reply. I was also wondering if the fuel tank is the 5 gal. or was increased to the 7 or 10 gal. Just working out the flight time calculations based on engine hp to gal per hour. They don't show to offer the 440 on the 103 anymore so looking into the MZ201 (close to same hp). I am wanting something to play around in instead of taking out my 172 all the time. Thanks again for the reply and great job teaching Alina. She looks to have great skills as a future pilot.

[@williamh.scottv438]

@@jmug68 2.5 gal per hour. Let's say the gas tank is 5 gal otherwise it wouldn't be an ultralite.

[@williamh.scottv438]

It's a fantastic airplane to goof around with instead of your 172 but it's not fun to fly in wind that would be not that bad in your 172.

[@mrwest5552]

is it ? @9:27 when the red SuperCub ? appears off her rear quarter. Thank You William H. Scott V and Alina.

[@williamh.scottv438]

It's a "just aircraft"

[@felixmboya6797]

What's it's top speed William? This is dope!

[@williamh.scottv438]

About 60 mph but she cruises at 50.

[@jasmine7576]

上クラス機に同速同高度で並飛行されるのはあまり気分の良いものでは無い！

[@pawepluta4883]

Nice flying, but it looks terribly uncomfortable to fly with entirely straightened legs.

[@MrSTOUT73]

Do you have the ballistic parachute?

[@williamh.scottv438]

They are available for this airframe but this one doesn't have one.

[@wbduckman]

As a Father, I could not, in all good conscience , send my child up like this . (at her age) If, God forbids, she crashes, you will NEVER forgive yourself!

[@williamh.scottv438]

I understand your sentiment.

[@Oleg-vs4ty]

Вот это другое дело что штурвал имеет, а не планка,которой трудно управлять.

[@williamh.scottv438]

It's not difficult to control

[@biggtrux]

Odd definition of "formation flying".

[@2512MaTHias]

Impressing… THAT is freedom… 🥹
