Flying over Houston at Night - Cessna 172

[@seajCharleston]

Josh and Jessica, I’m not often stuck for words, you guys rocked it! The iPhone does not do it, or you justice, big screen next! Thanks for the ride along.

[@christophermetzer593]

I learned at DWH how to fly, and I love that I learned under a bravo shelf at one of the busiest training fields in the country. Teaches you everything you need for airspace and talking and technique.

[@bartgoins1782]

106 year old seafood place that still has the "original owners." Wow, how old are the owners? Nice night cityscape.

[@janetsabers4965]

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing the owners. Must be very old, LOL. Thanks, Josh for a wonderful video.

[@timothyfeist7364]

Maybe the place was bought for them when they were born? Idk, I'm curious too.

[@jeremyswan1446]

Probably the kids run it now im sure it's original family

[@anthonydurrah7252]

I said let me look before I post 106 years they must be very old.

[@DirtNerds]

think he meant same family owns it

[@FatherTech]

You make me miss Texas so much! Even pick up Jessica's accent every so often. A year ago I would have said she had no accent. Love Gaidos in Galveston. Have been there many many times over the years. Almost a must everytime I visit Galveston. Thanks again for sharing. Such a great experience to see from the air. Sure dont miss Houston traffic lol.

[@somerandomdude8254]

thats a FLEX damn u have the best 172 i condition and best view

[@airbusaa]

Fantastic👍🏻

[@chris.D1]

I bought my first plane (61' Cherokee 160) last year that came out of Hooks. First flight with it was 8 hours back to Florida.

[@charliebaker5566]

Every aviation person: Doesn’t know how to end video... “There goes a helicopter!” Hah! Great video Josh.

[@buckshot704]

Charlie Baker ; 😂😜

[@alschmidt8963]

Great video guys.

[@Wayman_Simmang]

Thanks Josh!

[@jamey40forty]

Trying to get my pilot FAA stuff done.... but with Corona....Who knows

[@AV4Life]

Good luck dude!

[@mandersontx1116]

5:41 a little piece of Josh dies inside.

[@DJTrainBrain]

First thing that got to my mind :)

[@jetdoctn]

Houston has always been a traffic nightmare, beautiful from the air at night.

[@craiggaudreau805]

This is Oscar week. You win the Oscar for Cinematography in an aviation related film. Subscribed and liked! well done sir.

[@johnopalko5223]

I love watching your videos. Not only are they informative, but they're gorgeous. You have a really good eye for composition.

[@Parr4theCourse]

Good Job, Houston skyline at night is gorgeous!!!

[@Parr4theCourse]

@Terry Bruce We'll be flying into KTME last week of March for a wedding reception....

[@mktRR177]

Parr 4 the Course you’ll love TME

[@Parr4theCourse]

@@mktRR177 Good deal, we will most likely KZbin the whole flight down and comment on TME as well.....

[@danaskubic2145]

Nice letting Jessica be PIC so you could shoot those great shots. Beautiful night flight, love watching the lights at night and being able to pick out other flights with their lights on. Awesome camera, thanks for sharing.

[@edmoore3910]

wish we had gps and laptops back in the seventies when dad and i flew a 150 and skyhawk. everything was vor.

[@travmoo86]

It may just be lighting and I’m no expert, but right at 1:37 it almost looked like there is a small bend in the very back edge of the rudder about a foot or so from the top. Am I seeing things?

[@billnicholson2470]

I see it too!

[@multitieredinvestor5246]

The first time I flew into Hobby controller told me to hang a left over Astrodome. Then, he picked me up after that. I thought that was cool!

[@crawford323]

Years and years ago, a friend and I would run checks from College Station to Beaumont to Houston Hobby and return. We would come out of Hobby at 3am. We had done this run so many times, the controllers knew us and the aircraft. As said to them maintain 2000 or below. These flights were magical. Thanks for bringing back memories.

[@lifeguardeight742]

I remember days like that...checking on with an N number and getting a heading and clearance class B...

[@davidwhite7837]

Beautiful plane, beautiful nighttime view of Houston, and beautiful PIC. Josh is a very lucky guy. Thanks for the great videos.

[@trevorthenumber1074]

Is it yours and if it is yours can you fly anytime you want and where to buy and keep

[@RobMR3]

I like you Josh, but she needs to be in more of your videos...

[@oterosocram25]

You were not kidding, that camera does really good at night!, the city lights help tremendously but still.

[@buckshot704]

Dang, ya’ll. I ran out of superlatives! What a view!! Absolutely no lack of 172 proficiency from Captain Jessica either. Cameraman was on his game, as usual. CAVU, folks. 😎👍

[@garywilliams9678]

Well done as always. The night images are superb. Keep up the great videos. Flying ABQ to ATL in March in my 172 for business just because we can.

[@airkingflyer3515]

The night camera is amazing. Having said that the scenery was gorgeous. 👍👍

[@smorrow5]

Brought back memories. I'm back in my home state of NH getting close to taking the practical for my private but retired from the Houston Police department several years ago. I have flown around Houston many times in Police helicopters but never at night, awesome footage! A very close friend and classmate (police academy) managed to become an HPD pilot, something I very much would have liked to have done but never had to connections to make that happen, but I'm finally doing it on my own. You do an excellent job with your videos btw, very professional and always enjoy watching them. Keep up the good work and I might stop and say hi at sun and fun this year if you're planning on going.

[@rafaelaugustorodriguez7773]

Awesome video!!!!👍🏻 Hi from Conroe Texas. I’m from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 but came here in 2016 and decided stay in Conroe and make life here with my Family. Love This city.

[@pook2830]

Why the hell have 5 peopel disliked this video? Seriously... what's not to like? Great 4K views, a nice little 172, and loads of great footage from inside and outside the cockpit.

[@oliverjh1281]

That was awesome 👏 more night flights please Josh nice to see how the instrument s look at night 👍

[@genx1144]

Next time ya go to Gaido’s in Galveston, get the salmon cooked ‘wade’. You won’t regret it. Great video. I can almost see my place.

[@Runmikerun1onTube]

This type experience shows the value of having instructor experience... beautiful evening flight above the city with a good friend. Let them take the controls while you capture cool views. Talking them through the approach and landing.

[@speedygonzales9090]

Another nice video and even nicer pilot, (I mean her not you Josh). Thanks !!! 😂😂😂👍

[@whowantsachannel1983]

New camera is amazing! Hope you'll share the details soon. I was "Like" #600...beautiful flight.

[@fox2102]

These videos keep the dream alive.

[@60trickpa]

WOW the night flight was AWESOME !!! You do an amazing job videoing

[@KLee-su8ot]

That was great. I’m a new pilot and recently started flying at night and I love it. I’m looking forward to going home to Houston and flying that route.

[@XELON1620]

It was a pleasure to top you off that night at Gill Aviation lol. Had to check out all your go pros in the plane. Really cool setup!

[@RaptorsBlood]

So that brings up a question I have for ya Josh. Do you have a referral code for light speed? I am in the market for a new headset and might as well try and support a fellow Texan

[@chips2348]

What a GREAT video, I have seen most of your video's and you are my favorite pilot to watch THANKS

[@topaviator]

To be honest for the first days i use to watch your videos i wasn't see them that intresting but eventually i start loving them they are so wonderful and you Aviation 101 u are an inspirational

[@lizleb8932]

My husbamd and and I watched ths AND it was amazing!!!The beautiful co-pilot is my beautiful daughter!!!!

[@chrisschreiber5000]

Man, the dynamic range and ISO capability on that ?Sony? is sick. Awesome night footage! Keep it up man. Glad to see you doing some fun flights again. When are you back to Pensacola?

[@ThatCodeBlue]

Great flight. Great video. Great communication between you both.

[@richardbates895]

I watched both parts of this trip...both gorgeous with day and night flights. The night views are remarkable, but both are incredibly well done Josh! Congrats on the new camera!

[@Runmikerun1onTube]

Great vid! Background music is nice (and low).

[@gtr1952]

The city lights were cool, like that vivid long red/white stripe x-way! Thanks!! 8)

[@jonathanguthrie9368]

When I saw the video about the flight out, I wondered if you were going to eat at Gaido's.

[@danielclooney6248]

Lol, I knew it!!! Gaidos!!! Yum that looks good.I enjoyed y'all flying over the refineries. San Marcos.....home of the Manske roll if it's still open and being made.

[@jeff8565]

Seen that view many times it never gets old one time i got to fly right over top of Hobby at night awesome sight

[@簾内七海]

United States?

[@valuedhumanoid6574]

Man, all I could think about was all that traffic! That was insane. I have heard that Houston traffic is actually worse than New York or LA. It has the longest commute times of any major city. Nice being a few thousand feet above it all! Stunning views

[@antoniog9814]

It's not really that bad. They were flying just past sundown, which is still rush hour.

[@muhammadsteinberg]

"I already knew that about you"...lol. I'll have to visit KGLS in the near future. I got a flashback of landing at Meigs Feild (Chicago) when it existed watching this video.

[@theav8rs45]

Awesome vid guys!

[@duanebidoux6087]

I was hoping he would swing over to the other two skylines of the Galleria and Medical Center. It'd be cool if someone made a "Houston Three Skyline Night Tour"

[@pa77083]

Wow! So many memories. Got my private ticket at LaPorte in 1975 ... spent a lot of time between there, Hobby, Hooks, Scholls field, Eagle Lake ,,, you name it. Many times rented a 172 at Hobby and departed straight south from runway 17 down to Galveston ... my friends were always impressed how quickly we got there compared to driving down I45 ... the infamous Gulf Freeway! Takeoff from SCHOLL was always fun out over the seawall and beaches and Gulf of Mexico ... what scenery! Noticed you guys flew over one or more refineries ... were they Texas City area or over the ship channel? Was always amazed that you could smell them in the aircraft and they produced a good bit of turbulence.

[@TheNutriarat]

If you had flown low over Buffalo Bayou, you could have spotted a body floating in the water.....:)

[@user-me2xf7wl5o]

One of your best Josh. Keep up the amazing videos.

[@Chiseen808]

Great video!! What’s the new mirrorless camera you got to make this video? It’s nice!

[@davecat1458]

Single engine ops at night 1500' over congested metro area. Not on my risk profile, but I enjoyed the view.

[@LaminarSound]

I was hoping you would say Gaidos. Killer food there. Great couple of videos flying over my home town. Love Houston. Cant wait to get my PPC and fly over it myself.

[@mikercflyer7383]

Awesome photography over the city. Where did you meet Jessica.

[@artcreations-65]

pretty cool video! I visit Hooks a lot... and love taking off from there with my son .... in command. Do you know how hard it is to be in the right seat and not tell him what to do? well, if you ever come back let us know! love night flying!

[@wesleynash9385]

Love cessnas grew up around them as a kid loved them since

[@Runmikerun1onTube]

“Oh, yeah... It’s Monday.”

[@docdurdin]

No, all these girl pilots are not his girlfriend. Her name is 80991. It's a busy life.

[@thesearcherman6652]

She is an asset to your channel. Very nice lady. Thanks for the movie!

[@mr.martintorres5804]

Good job Jessica!

[@jorrharris]

Wow what camera do you use? And how do you keep your C172 windows so clean? 😂

[@jonashcraft9267]

Looks like you flew right over La Porte (T41) - my base airport and where I got my private certificate January 2019. Beautiful video!

[@elmerleefuddpucker7747]

I'm interested in flight training near home in Kemah. Who did you find to train you there?

[@jonashcraft9267]

Elmer Lee Fuddpucker Harvey & Rhin aviation. They are great. Total package including the check ride.

[@elmerleefuddpucker7747]

Thanks for quick reply Jon. Can you give me any detail about fave instructor, times, costs, etc?

[@jonashcraft9267]

Elmer Lee Fuddpucker instructor $60 per hour. 172 is $130 per hour. My instructor retired from there last year

[@cyriluebbing22]

Nice

[@keithcope8113]

Looked like a great time. Not to forget the company of a very pretty lady. You have a knack at finding those lol stay safe

[@cyh4031]

Just got back to Houston from Colorado Springs...where my wife developed heart and blood pressure issues from the altitude. Much better know that we are closer to sea level. Would love to see this in person...have been an aviation geek most of my life. Blessings to you and yours!

[@vmelvinkey]

Great Video as usual. I was disappointed that you didn't get the San Jacinto Monument on your night flight. Beautiful photography!

[@TraneFrancks]

At 2:45, ATC clears 991 into the Bravo. Did our side need to repeat that back?

[@indiangandoo2593]

They look iridescent algae from Fiji

[@jamey40forty]

This is an awesome video.....I've watched it at lease 30 times.

[@chucklesx]

Oh you're a clever one, adding gorgeous eye candy to channel... oh and the night flight was cool to 😆

[@DavidSmith-zu6eu]

Sooner or later you're gonna have to address the elephant in the room. 😉

[@younghils]

what is it??

[@chrisnedbalek2866]

Yeah, what's the elephant?

[@LUXAviators]

So what camera did you use! Looks awesome! Sony Alpha?

[@elcastorgrande]

Both my children live and work in Houston. Commuting is tough.

[@Zakit24]

Great video. Do you list anywhere the gear you use to record, especially the night vid, and editing process?

[@mdye.04]

Anyone know what camera he’s using for the night footage?

[@jdouthit24]

DWH is right by my house... small world

[@AV4Life]

This video is one of my favorites from you, Josh. Extremely motivating for me going about my PPL!

[@bobstewart195]

nice photos! I have flown that corridor and it is an awesome sight at night!

[@vindoll6237]

Camera takes amazing night video!

[@piotrekflo]

This is stunning video, amazing views!

[@foxbravo158]

What is the main camera that you use ? and do you have a polarised filter ?

[@jamey40forty]

Jessica knows her shit.....HOOKS

[@flyingwithkids140]

Very clear sharp and stable. What camera did you use?

[@jolly1374]

It’s crazy hearing you on the radio at work on live atc and then seeing your videos on KZbin. Lol

[@paulcailliet9942]

Moving close to you soon - watching your vids with renewed interest - would find interesting vid on your home airport, flight school there, and so on at San Marcos

[@mishmish1968]

Fantastic job , love it , i wish to do more of this awesome flights.👍

[@ludastorm]

What a camera did you use? It is a nice video quality.

[@AKMaxFlightsTravel]

Man that was some beautiful scenery

[@v-grooves8531]

"Cleared Into the Bravo"

[@JeffGoat213]
