Cirrus Vision Jet Flight Vlog! Flying Family to Portland!

[@JiriLitera]

Very fine young man, one of the finest. It was for me a special moment, joy and pride to watch my beautiful grandkids sitting together in front and flying me home. Thank you, thank you parents!!! Grandpa George.

[@trumpetman8889]

He’s an excellent pilot. I like the fact that he was thorough with his flight check list and that he verbalized each task thus keeping himself from forgetting a crucial step. Many young pilots fail to do this and it often leads to disaster

[@jarrodt5786]

Cool being able to fly multiple generations of your family around the country

[@adamshayes]

As a Helicopter Pilot myself at the age of 53 I know how demanding space can be and I must say watching your videos. You are an absolute credit to your parents, your parents must be so proud of you and if they aren’t they really should be, You are an amazing pilot dealing with some really challenging airspace and I really take my hat off to you well done and long may it continue I am in all Orr of your piloting skills all the best and fly high your man .Adam UK

[@ivoryjohnson4662]

Keep on doing what you do !! Thanks for sharing your grandfather’s experience!

[@westcoastflyer]

I’m glad you enjoyed it!

[@chadmark88]

WOW . . that was a SMOOOOOOTH landing !!!

[@westcoastflyer]

Thanks!

[@dichesari]

😅bviously u dont know what a smooth landing is😅😅😅😅

[@chadmark88]

@@dichesari When the plane doesn't shake - it's a smooth landing !!!

[@MikeB-in1nd]

Your Grandfather must be so proud. Nice flight and landing

[@westcoastflyer]

Thank you so much!

[@Potrvlb]

As a father of 4 grown children I can’t help but have a big smile while along for the ride, you are so dialed in, professional. Very impressed and I’m not a pilot but listening to you go through the preflight, actually verbally going through your list, dialed! You clearly demonstrate you’re a very skilled competent pilot, safe. Sometimes while watching on other videos you feel nervous for the pilot and passengers but not while watching you fly. I am just so impressed. I subscribed. Plus what a beautiful gorgeous jet you are flying! Holy smokes you flew right over my home! Gresham! Your sister must have spotted our new UNNECESSARY 5MILLION DOLLAR LIBRARY that’s under construction with a massive crane poking out at Towel and Division 😂. Our old library was not even used really, always empty but they built that 3 story building right on top of a Max rail parking lot that they just resurfaced with new asphalt at a cost of 1.5 million the year prior, no joke! Total complete waste of tax payer $$. Excellent video young man and I’m so happy for you, fun fun FUN! 🙌🙏

[@westcoastflyer]

Thank you for the kind words. I'm glad you enjoyed the flight. Cook that we went over you!

[@pauljoseph8338]

So cool. Your family must be very proud of you. Thanks for sharing.

[@westcoastflyer]

Thanks for watching!

[@easttexan2933]

Outstanding !! Such professionalism displayed. I would fly with you anytime. Thanks for sharing.

[@westcoastflyer]

Thanks so much for watching!

[@patmack14]

Agreed...Once you get past those ridiculous shades!! (@westcoastflyer It took me a full video before I could take ya seriously with those suckers on lol!!)

[@rustyellis3702]

That grandfather, what a life to have your grandson fly you around. A life well lived!!!!

[@roccoj083]

I've said it before but I love the Ford AC vents! Nice job flying!

[@transactcredit]

I feel blessed to have made your (family) acquaintance. I love your professionalism and your flight videos. All the best and may our Father bless you, in Joshua's name.

[@MelWade]

It’s fun watching you fly and seeing the family! Congrats on your achievements and success!

[@kevinhenderson8052]

This young man is a well trained pilot...

[@David-ed4fn]

Super chill guy and seems like you have a great family! Glad I found this channel

[@Kmiller-jr4fi]

This is rad! I fly out of PDX almost everyday in a much crappier aircraft haha. Happy you have the chance to do stuff like this! Def jelaous.

[@geraldturner9764]

First time to watch. Wasn't expecting verse, good job.

[@jeffb1886]

Great video, great piloting, and a really nice plane to do it in!! You are very fortunate! The PDX area is my backyard...I think you flew over my house as you made your initial approach into the area. 🤣 I'm retired but still fly Cessnas out of Vancouver/VUO. That's the small airport off your left on final. Lots of special comm requirements with PDX tower for traffic avoidance. And if you want a nice sightseeing moment, find a way to circle Mt St Helens at about 7000, esp snow covered. Really interesting.

[@etarheel1]

Always enjoy riding along with you sir! Always ahead of the aircraft from what I can tell and radio comms second to none, ok maybe citation max on comms but certainly a close second! Two comments, as a kid I remember being able to write with my finger on the hood of my mom’s car from the ash from Mt. St. Helens, in central NORTH CAROLINA, I kid you not. Second I implore you to make videos with your grandpa and ask him every question you can possibly think of. I so wish now in my 50’s I had done that with all my grand parents. They try to teach us so much before they go to heaven but most young folks don’t understand all they did for us until we are much much older! My most cherished possessions are the few videos we made at some holiday gatherings and paw paw playing bluegrass music in his band he started, played over 50 years together! Get the questions going asap I urge you with love! Again thank you for sharing your flights with us! Stay safe and thank you for always having a verse from our Heavenly Father in each video! It’s the most important !❤❤❤

[@westcoastflyer]

Thank you so much for the kind words and for the inspiration about my grandpa! I couldn’t agree more about cherishing time with him. I wish you all the best!

[@MikeKobb]

I was going to say the same thing about Mt. St Helens! I was in Houston at the time and we had a significant amount of ash.

[@jamesdelaplain]

Amazing story of your Grandpa Go Beavers haha Thanks for the upload!

[@s.v.5052]

Lots of respect for your grandad and family.

[@westcoastflyer]

Thank you!

[@washredskin887]

Your plane is badass! I want one of those!

[@sggin1]

that jet looks so smooth

[@FaresGuta-FG777]

Your videos are so surreal bro , GOD bless you for sharing full uncut experience

[@clarencewiles963]

I hope you had a Merry Christmas. And hope that you have a wonderful New Year Thumbs up 👍 happy travels 😊

[@westcoastflyer]

Merry Christmas to you too! Happy New Year!

[@flyingwithry]

Man am I blessed to have found your channel. Working through instrument training myself and seeing your confidence, methodology, and expertise along with you openly quoting scripture is all so inspiring. Looking forward to future adventures having just subscribed.

[@CheeseheadTyler]

Your comms and chill demeanor are inspirational man. Been a flight attendant for a while, starting training to make the jump to the flight deck soon and hope to model my game after yours in that way lmao

[@thepineapple1585]

Amazing content! Plese do a QnA, I think people will agree. I wold love your story and more.

[@MikeKobb]

Another great video, Blaze! I really like how you manage the intercom to minimize distraction. It's nice that the family can continue to chat and have a nice time while you can keep focus. Happy flying in 2025!

[@westcoastflyer]

Thanks so much! Happy New Year!

[@Artsy-sh4tr]

Your literally the best you're videos are like citation maxs, hopefully one day i can also have a vision jet , its literally my fave plane in the world with the a321 xlrm,in second, keep doing what your doing man, i see you becoming a really big youtuber , keep flying, and safe journeys Stay blessed, God bless

[@johnwalters878]

I love your Channel Blaze. You are a good dude. I have commented several times. I live in Chico now, but lived in Vancouver, WA. I got my private pilot there and made many trips back and forth between VUO and CIC to see family. Airplanes make it happen much easier. My Cessna 150 is pretty ghetto compared to a Vision Jet, but flying is flying. lol

[@westcoastflyer]

Thank you! I love flying up there, it’s a great area. The 150 is a legendary plane and so cool you fly yourself. See you in the skies!

[@stephan8832]

A flying lawnmower is still an airplane... (I did buy one not too long ago). I don't know if I do or don't love the super digital cockpit in the vision jet, granted I also haven't been inside one.

[@richclay4209]

No matter the conditions, Portland is one of the most piolet friendly approaches in the country

[@idlesquirrel]

Great video! Always a smooth landing!

[@davidwolf226]

What a terrific greased landing, Blaze!

[@SyTrades]

So glad you made it out here Grubbs, Wish I could've spotted your landing!

[@KutWrite]

Wonderful flight. Well done! My favorite part: Hair braiding.

[@IvanDiaz77]

love the vids! im a local chico resident. big fan!

[@westcoastflyer]

Thank you so much!

[@gooutnsurf]

Fellow Czech family right on! Always love the videos my dude!

[@haywoodjablowme2972]

excellent job captain

[@aarontheis4938]

Great flight and great memories made. Also greased the landing 😀 Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family. From KRNO

[@westcoastflyer]

Glad you enjoyed the ride! Merry Christmas!

[@justaguy2356]

My favorite KZbin pilot....keep posting man! Love the Bible verse insertion as always!

[@westcoastflyer]

Thank you for watching!

[@colinsutherland7332]

I always look forward to ur vids, my thai wife and I, are now leaving the cold and rain of Vancouver BC for our winter home in Phuket. I will be trying my VPN to continue to stay up-to-date when u post, thanks for Bible verses it means a lot to me. Please have a happy New Year.

[@SteveM-q4z]

Thanks for sharing your flying adventures 👏🏻👨🏼‍🚒

[@OverlandOrange]

Welcome to Portland. We've had rain for the past 2 straight weeks :( Hillsboro is a great airport to fly in/out of, if you haven't yet.

[@AntunesAdvogados]

You are excellent pilot!

[@westcoastflyer]

I appreciate that!

[@CaptainJim-7107]

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from Bandon, Oregon.

[@jamesdelaplain]

They were trying to say on the radio three times nicely during landing about the hillsboro tower where the vision jets usually would land I think... That's the business jet area

[@tpaine7680]

Very cool video, thanks for putting it together :-)

[@SuperLefty007]

Great pilot very thorough awesome family love the quote from the bible midstream though the course.

[@BrittneeDrummer]

We’ve got to pitch in and get bigger sunglasses next Christmas!

[@stevespessard2306]

Great video. It would interesting to know fuel burn, range etc for a flight like this.

[@nathanwheeler4421]

I enjoy your videos. Was wondering if you could drop a link to your writing tablet. I bought a cheapie on Amazon but it lasted about two minutes.

[@mervynedwards5234]

I love when you put Scriptures on all your videos keep sharing God's Word to all.

[@astrosfan129]

Gotta admit, thought this would be a spoiled rich kid vlog but he proved me wrong. A great pilot and seems like a smart young man making the most of the opportunities he’s been given.

[@westcoastflyer]

Thanks for the kind words. I appreciate it.

[@smgebrov]

Thanks for sharing with us!!! Be safe and stay safe 👍

[@westcoastflyer]

Thank you!

[@weeniehutjunior]

Great video! You're very professional and skilled!

[@westcoastflyer]

Thanks so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

[@Drxie]

Thank you so much for sharing the word of the Lord on all your videos,, im a slow reader, if you could just extend the length of the passage you share with us would be amazing... love the content ❤

[@jonaramaa]

Cool to watch you fly to my city! Welcome to PDX.

[@westcoastflyer]

Thank you!

[@rootbeer9908]

Love the videos man keep it going

[@westcoastflyer]

Appreciate that, thanks for watching!

[@MrPhilipPomeroy]

Love the video!

[@joeglennaz]

Wow so cool! Hello from KPHX. Nice adding in the Bible verse

[@CYVRFlightSim]

HVAC dash vents from a 2010 Ford F150. Cray cray.

[@jaywisdom5873]

Great video Captain! Just started following you a few months back and really enjoy your flights! How long was your flight? Can't wait for your next video. Take Care!!

[@maw.velocious]

Like the "Paying it forward to animal wellness orgs"...... Well done!

[@kbond002]

Great video!!!

[@vitaliyumanets2753]

Very cool!

[@dan_crouch]

Corvallis checking in. Happy Holidays.

[@mustardseedsociety]

Hi Blaze !! I looked you up as a pro water skier and saw a photo of you as a member of the National Team. Wow !! Totally impressed with your pilot abilities and your athletics. {as well impressed how you can do BOTH at a high level simultaneously} Now I want to see videos of you competing as a pro water skier. Are there any I can see ?? I do have a CVJ question: What is the glide ratio of a CVJ - engine out just out of curiosity ??

[@mohammadalvee664]

you should use the nd filter for the camera

[@albertattwood2537]

Hi. Just a quick note . If you are being depleted at your age . May I suggest you not just look at your intake but your ability to absorb. Stay safe.. love the cirrus jet.

[@davestelling]

Enjoyed the flight, young man. Thank you for the Holy Scripture...

[@kevingray3713]

What are you using as your tablet I see you making notes on?

[@Shaneepe1]

Great video! Why is there a maximum altitude for deicing boots? What happens if you get icing at an altitude above where you can use the boots?

[@truckingharrington1764]

Willow is great I am a trucker and stop at the willow airport all the time for breakfast!

[@ryan.esparza]

Love the videos, keep up the great work. Hope to see that vision jet at PDK next week for ASU taking on my Longhorns! Hook 'em!

[@westcoastflyer]

Less go ASU!

[@ryan.esparza]

@ 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@Misunderstood961]

Wow you are Awesome🙏❤️💯Mighty God‼️

[@gun-dog-tv]

Magnifique mon rêve :)

[@dankuettel5063]

Actually, you flew over Clackamas then SE Portland then over Beaverton to the west hills, not Gresham but that's ok. Cool video man coming from a guy that worked the line for 16 years.

[@fredhunter7129]

Great flight as usual. Which sunglasses do you use while flying?

[@SuperBODY90]

nice toy for millionaires

[@mechadoggy]

Subscribed for the Isaiah 9:6-7 quote

[@BG12345-l]

Sorry, but I have a question? What would you recommend about fear to fly ?

[@StasBelousVideo]

Hello ) nice videos on your channel ) is it your own family vision jet ?)

[@basacz]

Greetings from the Czech Republic

[@westcoastflyer]

Hello!

[@rheape1]

Bummer you're going to Sherwood and flew over the nice airport at Aurora - Rob (PDX)

[@cour1988]

Hey I just bought a vision jet too! Only 710,000 credits! 😁

[@joeventura1]

Oil presssure check, Squak, Sisters hair braided, Check!

[@iamrockyw]

Cool story about your grandfather.

[@kilowhiskeyaviation3908]

Hey @Blaze - just found your channel - great content! Question, as I’m picking up a VJ later this spring. I think you mentioned no boots in RVSM altitudes - curious why? Is there that much pitch change/ballooning possible that the AP can’t correct? TIA

[@westcoastflyer]

Hello sir! Thank you for reaching out. No boots in RVSM because of the slight pitch up and down...its very smooth but when there's 1,000' between you and a heavy jet ATC would get mad haha. At that point, really no need for the boots since you are so high and out of icing.

[@milanturan4196]

hey how do u record the atc

[@allenhughes12]

I agree with sis. I think I would enjoy flying if I knew what was happening on the flight deck. Staring at a seat back or bulkhead for hours on end makes me edgy.

[@يزيدابنيحيى]

Very nice, continue, but I have a question, what is the name of the car and what is the license required to drive it? Is PPL enough?

[@Fly_is_Fun]

minum PPL + BIR (Basic Instrument Rating) or PPL + full IFR at ours in Europe

[@reaper378]

Is your AOA cover off lol ! Is your seatbelt on double lol !! Great vid !

[@rws0010]

So you cannot use pneumatic boots in RVSM?? I never knew that.

[@PH300-h5w]

Hello! As someone who has dreamed of becoming a pilot since childhood, I truly enjoy watching your videos. Thank you so much for always sharing such high-quality content! I, too, aspire to one day fly private jets like the SF50, Phenom 100/300, Cessna Citation CJ3/4, and Pilatus PC-24, traveling the world as the pilot in command. If it’s not too much to ask, could you share what field or work you’re involved in that allows you to purchase and maintain such incredible jets? Thank you again for your amazing videos. I’ll continue to support your channel! 😊

[@westcoastflyer]

Thank you so much for your kind words! Keep at it and you will be flying those planes as well. I do not own the aircraft. I just get to fly them. Take care!

[@PH300-h5w]

@ Thank you so much for reply :) Have a nice day !!

[@b_rizzyy]

Awesome to see you fly into my hometown! What do you think of PDX?

[@westcoastflyer]

I love it! Beautiful approach with the Columbia in sight.

[@b_rizzyy]

@ Nice! Can’t wait for the next upload!

[@brayankungu8963]

What do you do for a living or it's daddy?

[@westcoastflyer]

I don’t own the aircraft, my job is to fly them.

[@jgdwick4067]

Sweet!

[@AntunesAdvogados]

Like your sister, I have some afraid to fly. This afraid gets better with a Cirrus Vision Jet.
