Beachhoppin' Bushwheel Birthday Bash | Alaska Flying

[@angleofattack]

Stick around for the whole LIVE PREMIERE, and join chat for a chance to win a hat or shirt at the end.

[@StudentPilot4EverLearning]

What a fantastic video so far! So good to see this with General Aviation!!

[@angleofattack]

@@StudentPilot4EverLearning Yeah man! It's a blast and I enjoy sharing.

[@jasonq111]

Flying is the ultimate freedom. I love it.

[@2Phast4Rocket]

Dude at 35 I was still trying to find out where my career was going. I am glad you found your calling.

[@angleofattack]

Super super blessed with that. No doubt.

[@AkPacerPilot]

Haha, I think I had my ppl for 2 years at age 35 😂

[@rjrummer]

As you sat on the beach peacefully, self-reflecting, I was expecting at any moment Rob would come running out of the trees hollering, “Bears! We’ve gotta go now!!!”

[@angleofattack]

Bahahaha. Not sure how many alaskans would do that. We know better.

[@alecpanayotov]

Love to see Rob on the channel. What a way to soak up what life has to offer. 250 hours and locked in the zone landing at miscellaneous beaches, but also clearly happy and goofy. I want to live my life the way Rob does. Also THANK YOU for catching some bears on camera Chris. I was dying to see them!

[@angleofattack]

Wish we could have seen them closer!

[@jimseals8659]

I turn 73 this year, and those little spots on the earth that give you peace and introspection are priceless. Another great video, thanks.

[@angleofattack]

Yes. It's what matters. Make sure to subscribe!

[@JimmyTidmore]

That "CLEAAAAAR!!!!!" makes me laugh every time.

[@angleofattack]

It lightens the mood.

[@MrGattor33]

Agreed. I got a laugh out of it too and then when his friend Rob started laughing at it; it made me laugh more. GREAT STUFF!!

[@oluwatoyinakindefakuajo4867]

Clear prop in the middle of nowhere gave me the giggles, most importantly, I was touched by the gratitude and the hope in your message.

[@angleofattack]

Thanks.

[@Lineman12.4]

The moment you opened and drank the Pepsi is the moment I subscribed. My kind of dorks here.

[@scbane]

Finally! A pilot who wears a helmet!

[@lj5673]

Rob is the man! love what hes doing with the pinto

[@angleofattack]

Me too!

[@lynnbishop6960]

You’ve already lived a full life of adventure at 35 that many of us aspire to live in a lifetime! Thanks for the inspiration Chris!

[@angleofattack]

It’s so true. I count myself blessed every day.

[@TimKirkmt]

That was probably one of the most fun bush pilot videos I’ve seen. Rob, is nuts, the world needs more people like him. So glad you had a great birthday. I had my birthday recently, and spent it flying with buddies (three aircraft, six pilots) can’t beat it, thanks for sharing

[@bruceplatt6913]

You two are Heroes!

[@craig6603]

Your videos make me realize that I have a smile on my face and it's been awhile since I've realized I've had a smile on my face.

[@angleofattack]

Miiiiiiight be the best comment ever.

[@boogerwood]

I love that you have lived there and flown there for a WHILE and you still are amazed at the wildlife and beauty like you just moved there!

[@ADVJason]

This is why I want to become a pilot. Exploring Alaska/Canada on a motorcycle has been amazing. But there is so much more...

[@rayquinn6886]

Happy birthday! It's always a good time watching your videos. The most important part of the video was you sitting on the beach by yourself. It gives you the chance to acknowledge and appreciate what is truly important in life! And to be able to share a day like that with a friend is really what life is all about! I'm 54, starting all over again and considering certified in air craft maintenance while pursuing my PPL. Wish me luck!

[@AndrewBuntenAdventures]

@AngleofAttack. From one Alaskan (Fairbanks) to another, thank you for sharing your birthday experience!!!! We Alaskans are the best!!!

[@angleofattack]

You bet! Love showing off our state

[@AndrewBuntenAdventures]

Angle of Attack It should be mandatory that Alaskans spend at least one birthday having fun in the State with so much vastness and majesty!!!

[@amac6243]

good video! Thanks. I spent a year 1965, at Fairbanks, 12th Aviation Company and started flying at our flying club, I worked on, Otters, Beavers, and Bird dogs. Went to Army flight school as a Huey pilot and maintenance for 7 yrs. 2 yrs. VN. Always loved Alaska.

[@luisgiraldes6958]

Congratulations. 35?! I am about 54, still taking my PPL and still dreaming showing up and fly with you guys. Definately Bush Pilot is my thing. Take care.

[@ZachTate]

I love this guy!! Love seeing you go flying with Rob.

[@angleofattack]

Rob is hilarious.

[@bakhirun]

What a wondrous experience. I'm sitting here in Jakarta, 10 time zones away, thinking about that lovely 'low-&-slow' flying adventure. Aircraft is ancient. Imagine taking a long road trip through the wildernerness in a 1954-era auto. Unnerving - even without bears.

[@MartinSage]

Flying is an adventure. Those mountains look scary + fun

[@Superrandomz768]

That is exactly why I am busy with my pilot license. Great experiences. Thanks for sharing :)

[@angleofattack]

It’s one big adventure!

[@danw050]

SOOO much fun!!! My first view of this birthday trip. AWESOME!!!!

[@limeyB-star-D]

that was CLEAR-ly awesome fun, even watching from my couch, now I want a Piper PA-20 Pacer!

[@IACaptainKen]

Happy birthday Chris. You were born the year that I was busy working on learning how to operate the flying machine.

[@angleofattack]

Hey that’s cool!!!!

[@Itsbrayo]

Happy 35th birthday, Chris. Cheers

[@additive8924]

Getting out into the middle of nowhere it's exactly why I want to pursue my balance license. Videos like this are excellent inspiration to keep me going.

[@FloridaFlying]

What an AWESOME birthday!! So jelly!!

[@angleofattack]

It was awesome.

[@streamingwithangelo3793]

Awesome Rob!!!

[@kevinphillips9408]

Fantastic Video. Great flying. Thank you so much.

[@afj3rd]

What an awesome video, thank you both for taking us along! Beach hopping birthday, I love it!

[@angleofattack]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@TheFlyingStampede]

Yay, love seeing some more Pacers on KZbin! Looks like a lot of fun. Happy birthday!!

[@angleofattack]

It was a blast for sure, and an awesome birthday.

[@TheFlyingStampede]

@@angleofattack Glad to hear it, you deserve it!

[@ak_5698]

Good to see an adventure on your birthday. Awesome.

[@angleofattack]

Yeah buddy!

[@dak2005vn]

Wish I had a flying buddy like Rob! Probably your best video yet. Happy birthday!

[@angleofattack]

Thanks! Trying to do a lot like this.

[@jtthill5475]

Happy Birthday friend Chris. May you have many more. In 5 years you will be half my age, if I make it that far. Thanks for sharing your birthday adventure.

[@angleofattack]

5 years wow. Time flies!

[@davidirish2941]

The clear yell is great. 👍🇨🇦

[@jessyeaviation9201]

[@blairguinea1337]

Unreal talent at 250 hrs! How cool is that!?!

[@angleofattack]

[@raderjohnson3890]

[@jmiven]

Happy birthday! Thanks for sharing.

[@michaelr0x0rs]

You're a day younger(Jun 8th here)! Happy birthday! I got to spend a 4 day weekend in Sutton with some good friends at a cabin. man! incredibly lucky to have such amazing friends. I'm grateful too. Everyone needs out to remember what life is all about, and reset. have a great summer everyone.

[@angleofattack]

Thanks Michael! You’re so right.

[@markbrow252]

The Happiest of Birthday Wishes go out to you and your family! Thank you for doing what you do!

[@angleofattack]

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it.

[@vicluncinski5258]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY !!!! Great story....

[@rtwg605]

Happy birthday (when filmed). Today is my birthday (I’m a wee bit older than 35) and just happened to start watching. :-) Thanks for letting me come along on this beautiful flight. Next year for real!

[@Merlin3690]

I thought I recognized Rob from the Bettles trip! Glad to see you guys keeping in touch and enjoying friendships made through aviation.

[@angleofattack]

I try and keep my friends. Haha. He’s awesome.

[@Qutlass]

Solid vibes!

[@Prairie7777]

Well Done! I so enjoyed this video. Having lived in Alaska twice before I know from experience how wonderful and magical a place it is! I will be moving back up for good this coming spring. Once it gets into your bones, you're hooked. Thank you for taking us along n your fantastic outing. As pilots, we know just how fantastic Alaska really is. Keep these great videos coming. They are truly appreciated!

[@KOLODNY95]

Fun to watch for this old bush pilot in NC with a BC12-D and 65 hp. I never got to go to Alaska, always wanted to, dreamed about it, and now too old. So I got to go and be with you two adventurers, vicariously. My favorite short-field landings were in WV, usually mountaintop airports, where if you went off the end, you'd have a thousand-foot, or more, drop off and plenty of old wreckage down there. We also have wing-'n'-a-prayer air strips here in WNC and East Tennessee. Them wuz the days!

[@roddraym]

Happy Be-lated Birthday! Agreed: A little bit of altitude can provide some much needed perspective. Thanks for sharing this awesome vid!

[@angleofattack]

You bet!

[@ExperimentalAircraftChannel]

Happy Birthday! Awesome! episode. Full of life. Lots to be thankful for ...for sure!

[@tylerharoldson8158]

I hope to get up there and see that in person! 😍

[@angleofattack]

give me a call when you do.

[@stolaircraftsuyanto9728]

great video my friend

[@calvinobrum1337]

Happy birthday safe winds and happy flying! Wish you all the best!

[@angleofattack]

Thanks!

[@stevelachappelle8571]

Just turned 35 on June 7th, Right there with you man. Crazy....

[@angleofattack]

May 20th for me!

[@quinnjim]

You can trust that the bears won't hurt you. The rifle under the wing screams "trust but verify"...

[@js_filming7701]

This is one of the reasons Im starting my PPL next year! ;)

[@alaskafan21]

Seeing the bears was my highlight. Clllleeeeaarrrr.🙂

[@mr.martintorres5804]

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY CHRIS! Sure looked like fun. Thanks for taking us along!

Happy birthday(3 years later) so happy 38th. Great video, fantastic way to spend a birthday. You both seem like very sensible and safe pilots. Hello from Australia.

[@rickkemper4260]

Great to see a Pacer being used like that.We have a flying club in Hood River Or. and our club plane is a Pacer.Thanks for the video

[@angleofattack]

I bet it gets used well down there too?

[@jeffboyack938]

[@stevenvonmoger6720]

That 23 mins went by too fast. Great little vid. Best kind of flying too. You fellas are very fortunate to have Alaska as your playground. That 1954 Piper Pacer sure is a sweet little plane. Look forward to your next vid. Keep going!

[@rickysueltenfuss6125]

Great video, well done! For 10 years I called this area my playground too. Funnest and most beautiful place in Alaska to fly for sure! :)

[@coppi60]

Happy birthday young man!!

[@bigb1910]

Really enjoyed the video. You guys had a blast and added some joy to my evening.

[@angleofattack]

Hey, mission accomplished then!

[@49txhunter]

Happy Birthday!

[@PDZ1122]

Those rifle cases strapped to the struts are just the height of silliness. As if there wasn't enough room left in the airplane. Trade off a few know for ”ooh, look at me, I got a big gun!"

[@angleofattack]

Have you no joy in life?

[@RobOlsenDrye]

Ever loaded up a pacer for two hunters gear food and fuel for a two week long hunt 1000 miles from home? Ya, I need all the extra room I can get

[@fabvee]

Great video Chris, and HBD.

[@angleofattack]

Thanks!

[@dalsbury1979]

Epic birthday trip. Happy Birthday!

[@angleofattack]

Thanks my man!

[@terryburns8917]

Happy Birthday, loved the video

[@danboone8499]

Happy belated birthday!! Looks like it was a good one.

[@AkPacerPilot]

Awesome adventure... One of these days I’m going to have to go down to homer, meet up with rob and have 2 pacers buzzing together around that area.

[@angleofattack]

Yeah man. For sure. He’s gone for the summer now.

[@AkPacerPilot]

Angle of Attack yeah, I bet he’s getting busy keeping the fleets together... hehe... that beach with all the junk on it, what area was that? I’d love to go down there and check it out for goodies!!!

[@angleofattack]

I’ll show you.

[@AkPacerPilot]

Angle of Attack awesome

[@TourSidekicks]

Nice Video . I REALLY ENJOY WATCHING IT.

[@speedbrake22]

[@angleofattack]

Not sure why you would want to go back. 😂

Happy birthday man! Thanks for all the great content you bring us! Can’t wait to watch your channel grow this year!

Pure Alaska.

Happy birthday Chris! It's good to sit quietly and reflect! I'll be 36 next month. Looking forward to getting my pilots license so I can adventure and find a quiet place to do the same 😁

[@angleofattack]

I highly recommend it!
