Back to BASICS! Flying to the COAST for Lunch

[@imdeg9821]

Josh, I watched one of your videos about a year ago and commented about not understanding half of what I was seeing and listening to regarding your flying. I mentioned that I looked forward to learning and using your videos to connect the dots. Here I am almost complete with my PPL and it's truly amazing the difference in now watching this and understanding all of the checks, radio communications, etc. What a great feeling to see it all come together as a shared understanding. Thanks for the post.

[@unrlodzzy6109]

You've inspired me to pursue an aviation career. I was initially going to college for computer science but I realized a passion. THANK YOU

[@raimanyuh]

UnrL oDzzy you can also complete your comp sci degree, and do aviation! Airlines love a bachelors on the resume. Plus it’s always good to have a backup career wise.

[@ilopezc]

Do both! Make cheddar, and fly for fun.

[@caleb4754]

@@raimanyuh Airlines in the U.S. actually require a bachelor's, at least to my knowledge..

[@raimanyuh]

@@caleb4754 Some do others don't, but its never a bad idea to have one. Especially a comp sci degree! You can code on layover and make lots and lots of money.

[@Fiveiron]

Please continue getting back to basics. For student pilots like myself, these videos help reinforce my training. Thanks Josh!

"Kick the fires and light the tires" Hilarious

Independence Day?

[@Aviation101]

All I could think after saying that was a 172 screaming through the air with its tires on fire. 🔥🔥🔥

Another great flying video, Josh. Thank you.

[@markbenningfield2997]

Thanks Josh! I always enjoy your videos. They are both educational and entertaining.

[@captaincruise1557]

These flight videos are great. I usually watch these alot before flight lessons. I am going to do my 4th lesson soon, so that is probably why I am here. Lol

[@danny_b_33]

Hey Josh, Just wanted to tell you really enjoy your KZbin channel. I have watched a few other channels and after watching yours, I stress out when I hear other people talk on the radio and just how they fly. You carry yourself very well and so much attention to detail. Definitely inspiring me to get my pilots license.

[@brianpellerin4229]

Cool, the RV-8 (N99SU) you parked next to when you pulled up was the very plane that I did my transitional training in, in October. Made many landings there with Bruce Bohannon instructing so I could fly my own RV-8. You make great videos! Thanks

[@S.Sheezy]

Your videos are like a love letter to aviation! I love them!

[@easttexan2933]

Outstanding flight. The chop didn't appear to be as rough as first thought it would be. Thanks for sharing.

[@equaltothetaskaviation6440]

happy new year josh from australia, just wanted to say I love your channel - one of the best on you tube. loved ahe alaska & high west series from last year. you are one of the most precise pilots around on you tube, so much so that other big you tubers have commented as much - so congrats on that - looking forward to what you have in store for this year - thanks again for what you do & what you bring to the table as far as learning take aways. as a grounded pilot due to a neck injury I can still get my fix & inspiration through your channel - love your work, cheers.

[@iblunder]

your so relaxed when you fly, you don t get nervous

[@billylallen2662]

That was a cool plane you parked next to. That’s for sharing your time. I can’t fly, because of health issues. I have been told not to even drive up to the mountains here, because of my lymphedema, my feet and legs would swell up and I would need something to apply more pressure or squeeze my legs, because of the altitude change.

[@brandoncrall2184]

Grew up in Brazoria!! Moved to Iowa in 2011.

[@philliphill3390]

Loved this video showing in real time commo with ATC. This helps me with commo a LOT!

[@hankmarsh2620]

Thanks for saying the name of the airport as it appears on the sectional. I was ferrying a plane across the country and people were making position reports but they weren’t saying the names that were on the sectionals and I wasn’t a local so I had no clue where they were!

[@chester8420]

I really like your MVP-50. That paint scheme looks sharp too.

[@brandoncrall]

I grew up around the Brazoria County area before moving up to Iowa!

[@MichaelLloyd]

It's good to see my Texas stomping grounds. I've worked and played all over the coast of Texas. I miss it. Thanks for the nice flight and idea for places to go when I get home

[@thefilmguy]

I used to live in Lake Jackson till I was 2. My dad worked for Dow Chemical. We moved to NW Arkansas in the fall of 1980. We went back to visit friends over Christmas in 1995 stayed at a beach house at Surfside. Nice place to be from.

[@sb859]

1:08 Great to see her again!

[@nukedaddy]

Doubt they're still together.

[@Twest130]

We all miss her though

[@birds_eye_view]

Really admire your landing skills!

[@randymoyer8286]

Hey Josh, I pulled in just as you were leaving. Sorry I missed you. Would have liked to meet you. Happy landings!!

[@astral9872]

Diverted to KTRM in Palm Springs California once unexpectedly, chart calls it Jacqueline Cochran Regional which is a mouthful. Everyone calls it Thermal on the radio which was confusing.

[@clairemalinowski2971]

I love all of your videos .

[@planecents9170]

That's my favorite mission! Love to fly and get food.

[@kenthompson3730]

Glad to see you using “Texas Gulf Coast Regional.” Virtually NO regulars flying into LBX call it Lake Jackson. Love your videos. Come have breakfast or lunch at 06R (Bellville TX) some day. We can go fly my Ercoupe.

[@garageauto5275]

Hi Josh the point you made on CTAF Calls is very good although at My home Airport KWDR everyone says “Winder Trafic” The AWOS says “Barrow County” the Airport is called Winder-Barrow County

[@pramodmathur20]

Loved the video Josh. LBX is one of the airports I used to fly to during my instrument training from Sugar Land

[@joeroscillo4015]

OMG!!! The back seat foam is showing, through the seat!!! Time for leather!!

[@leibsis]

Hats looking pretty sweet

[@freedomrider30]

A+!!! Happy New year J!!! 👍👍👍

[@zerggon]

Used to frequent LBX for dinner during my flight training days in 2016. It's the only airport in the Houston area with a convenient restaurant close by the airport that's open til late, besides Carl's BBQ in Weiser EYQ.

[@garon43]

Weiser was just closed down. they have already bulldozed the hangars. I drive by it every day :(

[@zerggon]

[@farmgene]

Nice.

[@prestonmiller9552]

I live in Houston and have never been to that airport. Looks like a short hop in my future. Thanks Josh.

[@iahflyr4690]

LBX great airport, just watch out for the Dow CRJ7 shuttles that come a go a couple of times weekdays and the food is darn good. :)

[@oliverjh1281]

Great video as always 👍

[@CocoEspada]

Lol you sure love your high speed landings haha, the flaps will keep you from floating so long

[@whowantsachannel1983]

Looking at that crab on takeoff...seafood on the brain! Passenger failed to ask how to operate the ejection seat. Btw I learned to fly on taildraggers so I was surprised to learn how hard it was ;-)

[@kbklt1]

Hey Josh, I caught that you have your airspeed indicator marked with what looks like the CMMS. Did you get that from FlightChops? I had just gone back and re-watched the episode where they discussed the Minimum Maneuvering Speed, and I actually calculated it for the rental that I normally fly even though it has a glass panel so I can put that number in my head along with the best glide in case of engine failure. Oh and yes P'cola is one beautiful Sunday flight! Thanks for the great content and inspiration you provide.

[@biomacx]

Awesome video and I live 15 minutes from that airport

[@MsBBpink]

i really enjoyed this! thanks :)

[@mathieugosselin7715]

Woow! Nice video quality💯

[@tstanley01]

It use to be called Brazoria County Airport, and most people around consider it Angleton instead of Lake Jackson.

No sir the BBQ capitol of Texas is, get ready for it..., Wolfforth, TX! Evie Mae's BBQ! Llano is good, but not that good... Come up to Lubbock and I will take you for lunch brother! Really like your show, keep up the good work!

[@harvey604journeyman8]

Enjoyable to watch as always,.... although had a thought that your next #991 project may have to be upholstery re-fit based on the condition of the back seat over your right shoulder!!

[@johnfitzpatrick2469]

Is there better performance with the engine in N80991 since the overhaul. Keep well.

[@Ian_Hay]

You had a really busy flying day today, Josh! (Your callsign came up on Flightradar24 alert 5 times I think). Really looking forward to seeing that circuit around Santa Catalina island.

[@Aviation101]

Ian Hay it. Was. EPIC!

[@willnorth5934]

What yoke mount are you using?

[@ETraylor3]

Regarding your pre-take off pax briefing... When was the last time you actually practiced an engine failure on take off [at 1K']? Try turning back to the airport at 1K'... It takes me about 1600'-1700' (with no wind), call it 1800' with response time factored-in, in a comparable aircraft before I can actually make it back [even close] to the runway. With your following (and experience) that could be good info for your viewership... Just food for thought.

[@kevingrosshandler5308]

What yoke mount do you use?

[@jwschrag]

You talk WAY faster on the radio than your already quick real life banter!

[@TeemarkConvair]

curious about the instruments response of cross checked and "calibrated", are they not calibrated at the instrument shop?

[@keithcope8113]

I havent been to lake Jackson since the middle 60s lol i worked there on a comstruction project with my dad. I was making minimum wage of 1.00 a hour. My how things have changed cool video see ya in the next innstallment

[@ArcticMayhem]

The airport names thing always confused me. In Alaska, all the airports are labeled correctly, but I was just next door to you in Louisiana last month ferrying a plane up to Alaska, and I wasn't sure on some of the airports. The names on the sectional were often some long winded or unpronounceable name. Either way, I got it done, but I thought it was cool that you mentioned something in the video that I was just thinking about. Keep making great content.

[@SandroDiSimplicio]

Can I ask you which is the action camera you have in the front looking at you inside the plane? Great videos btw

[@charlesschultz6797]

The faster you talk on the radio the better pilot you are....Roger.

[@Richard-nq5pj]

Did you replace the windshield?

What are all the extra runway marks on the Lockhart runway?

Not Aussie, definitely a kiwi! ;)

ok i have to ask what happened to the ADF to cause it to go inop love the new location of the whiskey compass also who hewed on the back seat there lol or has it been like that and a 55 inch 4k tv showing me what ive missed watching this on a cell phone

[@gathererofinformation2390]

Looks like good food. Just watched you fly to Catalina Island in Calif. Wondering what you're up now. Great job on the video's. Just curious how you pay for all of these adventures. Really none of my business just keep up the great work. You already have a super following that deserves your own tv show. Just a thought.

[@spanieaj]

When are you going to renovate the interior (getting rid of the brown) to match the exterior?

[@garob4995]

Awesome video. When you called ATC do they know the airport as Lake Jackosn. If the name is Texas Gulf coast why wasn't that name used, jc. Also ,was that a oops mistake calling 15 miles North East instead of North West on first CTAF call. Thanks for all you do in Aviation.

[@yesrevyesrev3444]

Why no sterile cockpit on final?

Josh, you need to contact me sometime. You could fly out to my private strip and we could do a multi ship flight down to a private strip on the beach. It’s a good time and not too far from you.

[@brennenfitzgerald]

Well, would you look at the sexy RV you nestled up next to. Personal favorite.

[@Parr4theCourse]

Thanks for the explanation of WHAT to call an airport, I recently posted a video flying to Amelia Earhart Airport in Atchison Kansas, and EVERYBODY was calling it Atchison , I was confused as all get-out.... when I departed I put a note in the video of how confusing this was!!!

[@scottmarch2966]

[@raulramos6393]

Stop calling Gillespie county Fredericksburg 👏👏👏 for a long time I thought Kerrville and Fredericksburg where the same thing - long story short I would always get the two airports confused.

[@dennisnbrown]

Good vid. You really don’t need to talk so fast though

[@charliestory8929]

This flight must of been a while back. I see Josh circling Catalina Island off California at this moment. That boy gets around. You were there around 4:30, saw the Dow plane land. I saw that seafood on your plate, that may be why they were closed. Next time get the airport car and go to River Point Seafood in Lake Jackson or On The River in Freeport ( ontheriverrestaurant.com/riverpoint_menus/ ). You will not be disappointed. Keep these great videos coming Josh.
