Cessna Citation XLS Landing Teterboro With ATC

[@petedavis8701]

Great to hear the radio chatter between you guys and ATC

[@captmoonbeam]

thanks Pete.

[@embalmer5736]

Hey this is a great vid ! I started flying in 87, when I was in high school, soloed, written passed, and just about ready to take my check ride, weather set in, time on my written expired, never finished, but now I want to. Only took 30 years to get to the point I might be able to afford it again, lol btw I live in Farmington MO. Be safe and keep up the vid's.

[@captmoonbeam]

thanks. 87 was the year I started flying. I've flown into Farmington maybe a half dozen times in the Encore.

[@johnkeim3836]

Enjoyed the running commentary with ATC. Keep up the good work.

[@captmoonbeam]

Thaks John.

[@thommarion8273]

Its nice to hear familiar voices on the radio, besides yours of course. I used a GA strip about 18-miles NNW of TEB for home. Always gave it up to New York ATC as being the best ATC group to do business with. Great video.

[@captmoonbeam]

I don't know how those guys keep it up. They must be drinking some high octane coffee.

[@digitalshackonthelane]

WOW that is some ATC! Thanks Capt.! That stuff scares me so bad! I dread it ever time I go up. That said, it reminds me to look into a booking for 300$ hamburgers.

[@digitalshackonthelane]

Oh and BTW thanks for popping in the aeronautical chart info!

[@captmoonbeam]

thanks Andrew. The key is knowing what their going to say before they say it.

[@digitalshackonthelane]

their is a reason I fly on sundays and only in corridors that are used mainly by Civ. Av.

[@conrad6598]

Thank you for the chart display when given crossing altitudes.

[@captmoonbeam]

thanks Conrad.

[@kk3jst]

smooth landing, great video, thanks captain.

[@captmoonbeam]

Thanks.

[@CaptainCam]

Thanks Captain!

[@The_Authority]

LOVE the flying videos most of all. Please keep up the great work.

[@captmoonbeam]

Thanks William. I'm thinking about making a series of hour long ATC videos from old flight videos I never used but, had good ATC. After each landing another would start. I think it would be good for student pilots to get a feel for the back and forth ATC communications.

[@The_Authority]

captmoonbeam That would be great; especially anything outside of your standard handoffs, clearances and such.

[@richardkrentz7553]

Teterboro, one of my favorite airports. It seems like every time I made an approach to TEB it was minimums all the time. East coast weather is not so good. Thanks for the memories.

[@captmoonbeam]

Richard, Have to agree with you on the weather. When it moves in everything slows to a creep. I remember sitting on the Teterboro ramp for hours waiting for the weather to clear.

[@richardkrentz7553]

Especially when the RVR is 10 ft. So have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New year.

[@BillUtah]

very nice video! love the ATC and all the normal speed of movement. two thumbs up

[@captmoonbeam]

thanks Bill.

[@krismetz9163]

Another great video!! Love the ATC!!!

[@captmoonbeam]

Thanks.

[@gimiesome]

Thanks for the video Capt. Nice landing.

[@captmoonbeam]

thaks Craig.

[@ChrisMuncy]

Thanks for the video Jim. Great way to end the day at the office. I had it running in the background while I was doing emails. Very soothing. I know you said that the ATC/Comms/Cabin noise videos are the hardest to put together but great job on this one. One suggestion: Leave the approach plates on for a little bit longer.

[@captmoonbeam]

Thaks Chris. I was wondering if it was long enough. I'll do that.

[@faf713]

Very good video, Keep em coming Fred in Houston

[@johnhill7133]

Jim, Nice job as usual. Keep up the good work.

[@captmoonbeam]

thaks John.

[@alvinalmqvistbeso8200]

Great as Always!

[@captmoonbeam]

thanks.

[@bigd-1-channel514]

Always hectic Nice work

[@captmoonbeam]

thanks.

[@BossaNossa1]

Hi Cap' Merry Christmas! I wanted to say that as I was viewing the first few minutes of your forward view. I had the sense that you were flying at the edge of space and the sky... And it reminded me of some of the videos I've seen of celebrities being allowed to fly in the U-2 Spy Plane! Man, that's a high flying aircraft! Especially when the plane is flying higher than the distance between it self and a commercial air liner and the ground and the altitude of a commercial airliner!

[@captmoonbeam]

Hi Bossa and a merry Christmas to you. I think they are just about at the edge of space. I would think you could see the curvature of the earth.

[@michaelmitiszek1538]

Interesting approach, I wish I could read the PFD.

[@orraviation8418]

Really good video! Thank you.

[@captmoonbeam]

thanks Orr.

[@MarcusLeepapi]

Yes, New York is just busy city all day....I have always flown in to La Guardia with our Airbus 318's and 319's. And a couple of times with the 757-200's.

[@captmoonbeam]

Hi Marcus. I've flown into La Guardia but I prefer to fly into an airport further out that isn't as busy.

[@MarcusLeepapi]

I hear you...Yeah, New York, Chicago, L.A. and S.F. the busy ones all the time. I know with corporate/private flying the not so busy airports are very nice...

[@errolzachmeyer5293]

Yep Yep YEP! A dats da way the PROS DO IT..... Way to go Jim. Makes me want to go have a glass of Jet A.... That was not a video that was a Oscar winning movie. Great to watch on a cold winter night for sure.

[@captmoonbeam]

thanks Errol.

[@watermanone7567]

Great video as usual. Wish I could see the instrument panel a little better. Thanks

[@captmoonbeam]

Thanks.

[@edrosenberger6947]

Twas glad that Jim was in command 'cause I was basically at a loss as to what the ATC wanted. For a while I thought we were on an ILS approach but then it dawned on me this was a GS descent. My last flight in command was in 1968 on a ILS approach in my 172.....I would have been sweating blood if I was sitting in the left seat on this flight. Must be nice to stay cool headed.....

[@captmoonbeam]

It's not that anything was exceptionally difficult it was just busy.

[@edrosenberger6947]

Things happen quicker in a jet when compared to a 172 and the difficulty for me was the busyness and not being able to understand what the ATC wanted. I think my main problem is the lack of recent radio work. I've had a bunch of passenger hours in a Citation II.....it was my favorite travel machine :).

[@captmoonbeam]

Not getting what ATC wants or is saying is a common issue. Half of it is knowing what they will say before they say it. That part comes with hours of just sitting there listening. If KZbin had been around when I was taking flying lessons, I think getting the ATC part would have been so much easier.

[@mikebrown614]

Great video, Jim. The only thing I might have liked to see (hear) is you making a few voiceovers explaining some key points in the progression from flight-level down to landing. Overall, very enjoyable and, of course, you make it look easy.................

[@captmoonbeam]

Looking back I think your right. the voice over would have added a lot.

[@jackryan6039]

Greetings Captain Moon Beam. We are about to depart this coming weekend for 4 to 8 weeks, so we just wanted to wish you and your family all an absolutely fabulous time over the holiday season. We look forward to catching up with your travels when we can. And just as a side note, we wanted to let you know that we will be moving house during this time, so that also means that our contact name & email address will also change! So it's not that you have lost our devotion to your channel. Thanks for sharing your adventures, and for replying to my comments. Catch you both on the back side of the moon. Cheers Jack.

[@captmoonbeam]

thanks Jack. I thought you were going to say you would be cruising in the mediterranean for 4 to 8 weeks. Hope everything goes smoothly during the transition.

[@jackryan6039]

Thank you. Having moved some 30 times over the past 14 years, we are used to it. Fortunately, we are not involved in the process. We get to leave, and most items are replaced for us when we turn up to where ever we end up. Stay safe as we see that you are going to experience a fairly intense winter! Cheers.

[@richardschindler8822]

Another great video. I'm guessing it wasn't today. The trees on the approach were way too green. LOL. I may have shot that approach, once or a hundred times

[@captmoonbeam]

This was from this summer. the last four minutes were part of a vlog I had made and I had always intended to post the full video when I got a chance.

[@BossaNossa1]

Fascinating that Mike suspected a "drone" when you heard the traffic warning, 500 feet? I think I heard... I imagine you guys will be picking up these signals more often as more and more folks play with these drones...

[@XplaneStudiosHD]

You have my dream job 😍😍😍😍

[@MichaelVanHeemst]

FunFlightsHD waddup man?

[@255-southcarolina8]

FunFlightsHD I say the same thing wish that could have been me

[@waynewalker8603]

great video Cap .. ;-)

[@captmoonbeam]

thanks Wayne.

[@Windtee]

Ah, raw aviation! Nutritious! Jim, if you're planning a TEB or HPN arrival, ring Christina or I and I'll plan a pickup and NYC tour. I'll see how much we can cram for you guys during the layover.

[@captmoonbeam]

Hi wind tee. Thanks for the offer. I'll definitely have to take you guys up on it. Nothing on the schedule right now for the Northeast. We had one last month to HPN but, it cancelled. You guys stay warm up there and have a great Christmas.

[@Windtee]

Roger! We'll stay toasty and you too. Merry Christmas.

[@nhbirddog7436]

Love, Love, Love the ATC. Seems like it's more complicated then actual flying?

[@captmoonbeam]

I would have to say it can.

[@BossaNossa1]

@23:14 "Gear Indication!" Whoa! that reminded me of the video you posted a few days ago talking about your gear issues!!! Were you able to see them land o.k.?

[@captmoonbeam]

They landed uneventfully about 15 minutes after we did.

[@CentralPASpotter]

Great video! Liked and subscribed!

[@captmoonbeam]

Thanks. I appreciate the support.

[@Downandlocked628]

Hey Jim, Another great video and I've seen them all. It was great hearing "Wilkes-Barre" and seeing the Wilkes-Barre 4 arrival. I am not a real pilot except for my computer sim which I hope to get better at now that I am a retired teacher. If you are ever going to fly into KAVP I'd love to meet up with you and maybe do lunch. Tom

[@captmoonbeam]

Thanks. It's been a long time since I've flown into Wilkes-Barre. Maybe 10 years.

[@dennismassie3552]

Always great video. Couldn't have flown any better. ( it take a license? ) 😂🛩

[@captmoonbeam]

Thanks Dennis.

[@GaryMCurran]

So, what happened to Papa Kilo? :) See, this is the stuff I really like. Not much to see, but listening to ATC, especially in and around the larger metro areas like NYC, Chicago, L.A., etc is all fun to listen to, and good practice as well. Thanks for the chart insets as well.

[@captmoonbeam]

They walked into the FBO as we were getting into the hotel van so I guess all worked out.

[@BossaNossa1]

"Traffic!" Yep!, I had to rewatch the video and then spotted the helo just at the lower corner of your window @14:45... So, that reminded me of the long range sensor system in place to detect that helo... Is the detector a sound wave or the radar or a laser sweep of the area around your aircraft? I remembered a documentary I watched about PSA Flight 182 that crashed here in San Diego in 1978... They stated that from this crash the "close proximity" technology came into being shortly after that incident...

[@captmoonbeam]

each of our aircraft has a transponder. Our TCAS (Terminal Collision Avoidance System) takes info from both transponders and determines if an aircraft is a threat. As two aircraft converge it issues a warning. If they continue to get closer it issues a conflict resolution which would be a climb or descent till clear of traffic.

[@greggary10]

will be flying the XLS simulator tonight 🙌🙌

[@captmoonbeam]

I didn't know there was one. Which simulator has it?

[@greggary10]

captmoonbeam here in the UK, CAE Training Centre. we also have a CII Simulator 😊

[@triumph1669]

Nice as always! Made good use of most of that runway haha 5000 ft? Guessing?

[@captmoonbeam]

I'm still working on it Eli. Practice, practice, practice.

[@BossaNossa1]

Were you able to hear or know what type of aircraft the "Papa Kilo" was flying..?

[@captmoonbeam]

I can't recall.

[@255-southcarolina8]

seeing all those Jets at Teterboro the money flowing up there

[@captmoonbeam]

Teterboro is definitely reaching it's capacity.

[@jerrybraddom4900]

Great video as always. How did the aircraft with the gear issue turn out?

[@captmoonbeam]

they landed about 15 minutes after us. I never got a chance to ask them.

[@BossaNossa1]

So when the both of you said "One to go!", are you guys referring to your way points..?

[@beastboss90]

Atitude, recalls to other pilot and calls him to check and confirm that the aircraft is 1000ft away from the selected altitude

[@michaelb.5345]

I like the chatter Capt. Ever hear the tower get really upset with a pilot about anything....keep it up ..not the plane.. the videos. Well keep it up also. Oh hell , I'm rambling...Mike

[@captmoonbeam]

I caught an approach controller loose it with another aircraft. He eventually came on and apologized. I didn't feel like it would have been appropriate to post so I deleted it.

[@DrJonez]

Has ATC ever given you a number to call? :)

[@captmoonbeam]

No. I've been fortunate in that area.

[@joepolen7212]

Hi I enjoyed this video, good one! Just wondering if you ever tried to measure the Cosmic ray flux/count while flying at altitude as compared to sea level? I am not worried about this from a health viewpoint, I just think it would make for an interesting experiment. Are the planes you fly have a rating for this? I can find and I can also calculate the flux based on an atmospheric model. I just wonder how it matches up with actual data. Just curious.

[@captmoonbeam]

No, I haven't tried that. I can tell you that pilots are exposed to a higher level of cosmic radiation than the average person.

[@mikercflyer7383]

Great video You had only one camera in the cockpit?

[@captmoonbeam]

Just the one. I think I need to upgrade to the GoPro 5.

[@mikercflyer7383]

yes it would be nice to see different shots of the cockpit.

[@noahholland3100]

I`m a new subscriber and I just have a couple of questions that I hope you can answer. I was wondering what a yaw damper does? and what is the largest plane that you have flown? Great video by the way.

[@superskullmaster]

Noah Holland well I can answer the yaw damper one. Basically it prevents the aircraft from yawing when it's not wanted(which can lead to a nasty condition called "Dutch Rolling").I think passenger comfort plays a big deal in that feature but also ease of aircraft control and added stability. You can still use the rudder but it is subdued somewhat(I'm told) Think of an rc helicopter with a gyro for the tail rotor. Similar but different. Someone feel free to correct me.

[@noahholland3100]

thank you superskullmaster

[@captmoonbeam]

good answer.

[@captmoonbeam]

Thanks. The biggest thing I've flown is a Gulfstream III

[@BossaNossa1]

Cap' I have a couple of thoughts/questions I'd like to pose, So, the auto pilot is it working solely on your preprogrammed inputs? Or a combination of your inputs and some type of sensor (laser-distance detector - or?) Do aircraft have ground sensing lasers or sound or radio wave devices to give the navigation system instant information? I can see you push what looks like a way point button, is that correct? I see a green light come on and then go off when you push the button... Thanks! :)

[@captmoonbeam]

for normal use we set the autopilot for vertical mode and lateral mode. That would be a specific altitude or climb/descent and a heading or nav sensor to track. The aircraft has a data base of terrain and obstacle heights and will warn us if we start to get to close and are not configured for landing. The only instrument we have that senses the ground is our ground radar which will show our distance from the ground within 2,500 feet.

[@Dolphinvet]

I've watched most of your videos, but I've a question about this airplane. Where's the magnetic compass?

[@flyboyf1174]

If your are talking about the whiskey compass it does not have one. Its integrated all in to the avionics on the standby and MFD displays.

[@captmoonbeam]

that's right. I'll just add that it gets it's heading info from a magnetometer mounted in the tailcone stinger.

[@Dolphinvet]

Live and learn. When did they start putting magnetometers in aircraft instead of the magnetic compass I've always been used to having as my backup? I admit to being out of the game for a lot of years until this past year. Now I'm "back in the saddle" and signed off. I admit that GPS navigation is new to me and I'm still learning the G-1000 system (it rocks compared to the old VOR system I used from everything from a Cessna 150 to the Lear 35A I used to fly) but I think the modern systems are fantastic.

[@flyboyf1174]

The G-5000 is very nice with all the touch screens. Whats Cessna put in the new 750 680+ and the 680A

[@Dolphinvet]

Yeah they are really really nice aircraft, and totally out of my price range. Like I told Capt. Jim on another post, I want a Citation 1sp with the Williams engine upgrade and the G-1000 equipment. I'll have to see how my companies do this coming year, and what my accountant says I can do (not to mention what the wife lets me do too).

[@richardchurchill2459]

Are you folks based out of KSUS?

[@captmoonbeam]

Yes.

[@robertpearse6472]

Woo Hoo. I'm first!!!

[@captmoonbeam]

Winner! Winner! You're leading the pack.

[@robertpearse6472]

Just a bit sad isn't! He he he. Fly safe Jim.
