Is it always hard to understand the atc? Or is it a matter to train your hearing for that? Pardon my ignorance.

[@Adam_Gray]

@@Cesar-nz7rz I'm not a pilot, but I've been watching Max's videos for a long time now, and I've "trained" myself to catch the callsign 2 Romeo Foxtrot and I'm sure its the same for all pilots who fly their aircraft always having an ear tuned-in to ATC back-chatter and key in when their callsign rings out over the radio. Great Question!

I'm not a pilot but I do enjoy watching flight videos, yours and Stevo, the Tech. in these aircraft are outstanding it's like looking at a Star Trek Shuttle Craft, theses aircraft literally can fly themselves and the Nav. systems on the plain simply incredible set it and sit back until your destination or Tower gives different coordinates, but of coarse the pilot still has to land,

Perhaps giving the line crew the correct hand signals would help. Point your thumbs out when you want the chocks removed, not your thumbs in. From a former line guy at Denver Centennial.

[@HotHatchSi]

He’s a bit entitled as you can tell from the tone of his voice. You are correct. I was also a line guy

[@CAPFlyer]

Agreed. Max, love ya man, but as a current line guy, one of my pet peeves is that pilots don't get better training on marshalling signals. As said above, Thumbs In = Chocks In, Thumbs Out = Chocks Out. When you were doing that motion, the line guy was *very* correct in questioning you, so please don't get an attitude about it. Whenever you go to a major FBO chain, every one of those line guys gets pretty good training (whether they execute it or not is another issue) because our number one priority is making sure you get in and out of our location safely. Last thing any of us need is a plane getting damaged because we misinterpreted a pilot or other crew.

Love your videos Max! Two quick things though. 1. Those pop locks on the hyd panel under ENG2 (or any other panel for that matter). Use your thumb to stop the “SnapBack” of the lock. Over time this will chip away the paint. 2. “Chocks out” hand single use thumbs out vs thumbs in. Keep up the good videos!

Nice Ride Max... Right thru the Greaser! You're a "Good-Stick" to quote my Father ';-)

[@FinkelBlog]

Hi Max: I'd enjoy more flight details. For example, you mentioned early on that you were hoping for the same 100-knot tailwind that you experienced as a headwind on the way out. What did it turn out to be, what was your TAS, GS, etc? Also, even when you are cleared for the visual, will you typically nevertheless fly a coupled instrument approach? Also, particularly when you're at 45,000 ft., I'd enjoy some views of the ground and horizon. It's something that few get to experience. I did enjoy your comments on the negligible difference in flight time between the Citation and other jets that might be a bit faster. Along similar lines, yesterday I was flight planning a 250 nm trip in my Columbia 400, and was surprised to note that a speed difference of over 21 kts at different altitudes only made a difference of eight minutes of flight time.

[@CitationMax]

Hey Mark! It wasn’t 100knt but was close. TAS was around 420 at FL410 burning about 900LBS total an hour. Good Feedback re the FL450 shots will do that. That’s awesome you have a Columbia! Yes you’re right it doesn’t make a huge difference. Thanks so much!

[@FinkelBlog]

@@CitationMax Thanks so much for your reply, Max. So, TAS 420 with near-100 knt tailwinds. About 500 knt over the ground--nice! And I'll look forward to enjoying the FL450 shots!
