Flying had never been on my radar before, but recently my Uncle passed and left me his Cessna 172 in his will with a letter about conquering ones fears among other things. I have been learning everything about the plane down to the nuts and bolts and am just starting to look into flight-school (fully funded by him as well). I have watched a few of these now and it has me shaking-nervous and kinda terrified-excited...in a good way. Watching these and having a level of familiarity with what I am about to walk into is going to work those nerves out of my system ahead of time and I think it will make the whole experience much smoother. Thank you for the fantastic videos. Fly Safe o7

Yes! What an awesome uncle, and what a wonderful gift (specifically the letter about conquering fears). Cheers to being terrified-excited in a good way! I'm a paraglider pilot and am very familiar with the nexus of fear and excitement. I'm terrified of it, but yet there is something so magical about literally soaring with the birds. I wish you the very best as you face your fears and venture into the skies!

It’s really not as bad as it seems. All the comms follow a certain formula that’s easy to catch onto. Once you learn the formula and learn the phonetic alphabet it’s easy. For the Formula, most of the time you just say: [1.] state whoever it is you’re contacting (if it’s your first contact with them) (i.e. *San Marcus Ground or San Marcus Approach*) [2.] Your tail number / callsign (San Marcus Ground this is *skyhawk 80991*) [3.] State what your intentions or have ATC tell you what they want you to do (*Skyhawk 80991 taxi via Alpha-Charlie-Juliet hold short and wait runway 13.*) [4.] Readback what tower has told you and proceed from there. Edit: Callsign can sometimes be last too.

But if you both knew that you were both secretly shouting out encouragment to each other, it would be quite comforting i suppose, like "Brothers In Arms"

So fun to come back and watch the earlier content on this channel. Incredible how you have grown as a film-maker, pilot, and flight safety mentor over the years. Keep up the great work and good luck on your future adventures👍

I'm currently in the process of getting my license, I've only completed 2 hours so far. It has been an overwhelming couple of lessons and is great to be able to watch this and see what right looks like. I plan I watching this every few hours in hoping that more and more will be understandable every time. Great to be able to relate and learn off of your videos.

Loved the "instructor voice" , the camera work, heck just about everything; however, being your Dad's age, I can't abide tossing the smart phone "projectile" onto the back seat. You may have tossed it in a soft-sided flight bag that I did not see. Also, I don't care how hot it is, I was taught to never flew with shorts on for obvious reasons. You are one of the most informative flight vlogers on the net (along with steveo kinevo). Always look forward to your posts.

I find it relaxing because of the full focus required. Real life is inaudible. Plus you can go to some cool places.

I flew in cessna like this once, but there was almost no talking like in his video. I guess it was like that because it`s just a small airport, only time the pilot was talking with flight control was before flight.

Such a good video!! The pov view the transition from cockpit auto to headset audio when you put on your headset. The instructional talk. I would hoping to see you touch the clouds but they were about 1,000 feet above as you remained at pattern altitude. Great video outstanding light touch landings. I hope to do these kind of videos soon as I approach my first solo. Would love to fly with you

My friend who just graduated and flew a plane, glider and helicopter. And yep, what you said is 100% accurate. Tho I never flew with him because he would always shout sing frank Sinatra songs and like to mess around (He knew his limits but still, I fly cautiously and follow everything because of all the stories from other pilots of being lazy and almost dying.)
