[@dpapaioannow]

@@inthedarkwoods2022 The Bible speaks about the soul right away in Genesis. There are two creation accounts that some think are different stories while others believe that the second story is an elaboration of the first. Here I will focus on the second story in Genesis 2:7. It says, “And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.” In transliteration “a living soul” is nephesh hayyah. Hayyah means “living” and nephesh means “soul.” It also refers to personality or desire which are aspects of the soul. God created Adam’s body first and he came to life once Yahweh breathed the eternal soul into his nostrils. We can see how the soul causes the body to live in 1 Kings 17:21-22. Here Yahweh heard the prayer of Elijah pleading for the “soul” of a child to return after he had died. God answered his prayer and the nephesh came back to the body of the boy and he was alive again.

I am a student pilot, currently working on my instrument rating. I just wanted to say thank you for making these videos because they help me become much more familiar with the automation and comms.

[@RaphaelLomonaco]

I rarely see a pilot speeching themselves so well during landing, going over the procedure and verbalizing what they are seeing, their actions, their cautions and etc. That brings such confidence to executing your actions and mentally revising them. It is always the best practice to talk to yourself during harsh times such as this particular min. landing once it gives your mind the opportunity to double check what you are doing, remembering forgotten actions and etc. Well done man.

Just love this. Your skill is outstanding. Clear communication with ATC. Beautifully executed approach and a perfect landing. The CJ3+ is known for its strong climb performance I believe.

[@jmflyer55]

First time I’ve seen the channel. Just realized that’s my home field, flew out of there for many years before moving away. Good old BTV. Still remember all the numbers, SID, local VORs & Loc. freqs etc.. Yes, I was even flying there way back when we were still having to shoot the ADF approach into MPV runway 35, while timing it on our watch for the miss, and biting our nails while being thrashed about with turbulence the whole way in ... 😉. How I miss real flying when I stop and think about it. Being a pilot has drastically changed during my life’s flying career. We used to have to work hard and study at being a good pilot. There was so much to know, and so much to master. But once GPS was approved for inflight use, and every plane out there started getting fit up with coupled autopilots, being a pilot started to change. And it’s come to a point now, where the majority of young pilots, can hardly fly the aircraft. But, they can push buttons and program a shiny glass panel avionics display, which is what is doing all the actual flying, navigating, and everything else the plane does now days. Yep, we gained a few advantages over my career. But, we’ve lost a lot more about flying, than we’ve gained. The main thing being, real pilots. Btw, I’m not talking about you in this video. Just my experience over 40 years of flying, and what I see with most young pilots who fly with me nowadays. To them, flying is all about the avionics now. The love of the flying and handling the aircraft itself, is no more. Being a good pilot, flying single pilot IFR used to be a heavy workload in the cockpit. So, we had to be excellent pilots to stay proficient. We had to constantly work at it. We had to multitask big time, so we had to be able to hand fly the plane so well, it was second nature to us. This is no longer the case. Many pilots now, rush to engage the autopilot when they get in trouble! since most cannot multitask and also fly the aircraft anymore. When what they should be doing when in trouble, is instead turning it off, and as pilot in command, take charge off flying the aircraft by hand. Like I said, times change. We used to be an adventurous bunch, mostly fearless guys who loved difficult challenges. We’ve become a group of button pushing computer gamer types, who prefer fancy avionics packages over the actual aircraft itself. Avionics that do all the actual flying for us while we sit, pushing buttons and programming, while watching the screens..🙄 Terrible... . Most pilots have no feel of the aircraft anymore. Avionics fly the aircraft and us in it, instead of us, the pilots flying IT! Like we always did prior. Sad but true..... And that my friends, is how the GPS changed and essentially ruined what being a pilot always meant to us pilots. PS.... That was a beautiful landing there friend... 😉

Great landing! I’ve flown into HPN as a passenger many times. On one JetBlue E-190, we descended at night through all kinds of soup and wind. I thought we’d have a carrier landing on the shortish runway, but it was smooth as silk. I mentioned it to the pilot as I exited; he looked at me like I was demented!!

[@briglad5274]

Nice to see you on my old ramp. I used to work for Heritage back before they were the "Real" FBO at BTV. (2005-2008. Only did maintenance and charter back when I worked there.)

Nice job on reviewing the checklists. A lot of uprates to turbine rating seem to 'forget' the lists since they're now in turbines, and ready for that corporate gig. You lend a very nice view to what is truly a professional going through the lists, and on the radio. Nice work. Would be nice if you could be a part of the CFII's that brush over the importance of checklists, and rely mostly on the software. As was said to me many years ago, keep your landings equal to your take-offs! :-)
