Gulfstream G-IV to Texas for BBQ...Who's The new Girl? - Pilot VLOG 48

[@thegoodfoot1]

I retired 5 years ago, from the airlines. 35 years with United. It is a joy watching you guys, flying and being very professional. Safe travels, and keep up the great KZbin stuff.

[@KutWrite]

Wow! John! Way to nail 'im with facts and logic! :P

[@DanFrederiksen]

Willie, ever see a UFO in your career? or heard stories from colleagues.

[@justjackfromsc]

It’s beautiful up there above the clouds. God’s creation is amazing. Thanks for the video.

[@mikesanto69]

@John Doe it just still amazes me to this day how 19 c********** could change a whole industry for the worse and bankrupt big companies along the way as well such as America West never recovered I'll never forget the CEO of America West Airlines on television shortly after flipping his lid

[@mattball7074]

Hello Mr. Carpenter. I am an aspiring aviator at age 25 (leaving the ungodly academia; now 7 years of under/graduate school) so I'm spending a lot of my time watching these videos to understand the language if you will, the laws, the insides of the career, etc. I've been filling a scribbler with notes ha! I was hoping to get your insight on what you believe to be best, Mainstream airlines, Corporate, Cargo OR Other! Obviously, when I obtain a mere 500-1500 hours beggars cannot be choosers, though I was hoping to get your professional opinion! Cheers from Cold, Canada.

[@hmort55]

I spent 32 years directing air traffic. Always enjoyed working professionals. Pleasure watching you work. Fly Safe!

[@michaelbullock6147]

I used to fly a G4 SP for a big chemical co out of Wilmington DE in the 90s I’m 65 now and watching you videos brings back a lot of memories! Thanks for making these and sharing! I MISS it!

[@hiflite2925]

Love the way you guys fly as a crew. It's easy to tell you love your job. Having fun, but very professional at the same time. Enjoyed your video. Nice job!

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Thank you!

[@mattcollins4550]

As a fellow commercial pilot I love the new camera angle showing the instruments, it is much more interesting to me. I'm only a piston driver at this time working my way to 1500. The extra efforts with graphics and arrows were great too! Keep up the good work.

[@Wqht12]

How you doing 4 years later

[@hugeblue]

Followed these these two for a while ! Good to see them again.

[@wgmskiing]

You guys show such discipline and professionalism. I really dig the videos.

[@brianjreintjes]

Great videos. I started watching you all the other day I was in the hospital for treatment for heart problems and a small stroke, your videos lifted my spirits.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Wow...I'm sorry to hear about that. I hope things are getting better. Glad to hear the videos helped in some way.

[@gordonhenwoodsr.5227]

You guys make this look easy, I'm sure it's not but love seeing the flight deck and crew operate....This was one of my passions as a kid however, now at 67, I'm still looking to learn how too..

[@ClassicalRips]

I'm so used to the symmetry flight deck that seeing this older flight deck makes me really appreciate just how far we've gone in condensing the cockpit and giving the pilots more breathing room. I've never had a chance to fly any of these older Gulfstreams!

[@deantait8326]

I was flying on 70’s G-2’s Corporate plane of course

[@richardvarner2802]

Really great flight, Shaun, and you did a super job as Pilot In Command. Good job on the takeoff and landing, too. Boy, Jon was really relaxed in his cool socks, but he did a great job as your Co-Pilot. 😂😂. I’m sorry to mention this again, but I still can’t help but be amazed at how well you and Jon work together. To me, along with the flight and all that goes with it, I find your interaction to be the most enjoyable. Thanks for introducing Jon’s wife to us. She is lovely, and they make a really great couple. Makes us feel like we know him more personally. Look forward to you introducing us to your wife one day. I liked the camera views, as well as the PIP during takeoff and landing. Great job on the video editing. Look forward to the continuation of this flight and later flights.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Thanks Richard! Great to hear that you guys are enjoying what we have to offer...

[@Drrhein]

Loved the GIV, retired out of the GIVSP in 07 and have to say it flew the best of all the aircraft I flew in a 40 year career, brings back many memories although we always wore uniforms - lucky guys.

[@richardedwin5980]

I sure do miss seeing you and John flying together. You guys made a great team.

[@jeffreygosselin7576]

Yep! The best!

[@Pueblomanvideo]

Another worthy contender with less wait time is Terry Blacks on Barton Springs Rd. Often described as melt in your mouth brisket. I love your videos. Thanks for sharing.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

I've never heard of that one...I'll add it to the list of places to try in the future. Thanks!

[@rodneydonahue]

I stumbled across your KZbin channel the other day and I have thoroughly enjoyed watching you guys fly very nice and very professional keep the great videos coming

[@thomwalker8501]

PIP is awesome, I have been so inspired by you videos I am going for my BFR after 7 years of ground pounding. CFI qualified glider pilot, Single engine land, complex. Refreshing my ground school work on line, Basic Medical in the works and instructor flights to be scheduled next month. WoooHooo. Smile...LOL

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Fantastic! Let us know how it goes!

[@johnarmbruster8874]

great vlog show more ground support

[@lilee45]

She has that "I'm in a frickin' GIV, and they're making me sit in the damn jump seat" look.

[@badbilly1083]

I’ve heard many single engine pilots talk of the “$100 Hamburger”, I’ve even eaten a few of my own(C172B). But the $25,000+ Franklins BBQ in Austin TX really takes the cake. Lol Hello Jon’s wife.

[@randallhash73]

Such wonderful and education videos you guys post...This has to be the best You Tube videos...I am a private pilot and grandson is entering ATP pilot school soon...Your videos provide him so much pleasure...THANK YOU for sharing.

[@normk5761]

I'm new to your channel so just wanted to check in and say hello. I love what you're doing and appreciate the effort it takes to do your job while also creating content. Thanks for all you do!

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Welcome to the channel Norm!

[@ralphmadera4366]

I am glad you guys are downloading these videos, really enjoyed all of them. Nice 👍 view of the cockpit and runway.

[@rayroc5938]

Love your vids guys. I'm an Aussie chopper pilot of 30-odd years experience and have spent my entire career drilling around below 150kt and rarely above 10,000'. I can only dream of what a Gulfstream would be like. Mind you, if it doesn't hover it sucks, as we say. Cheers and thanks for the awesome posts.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

That's fantastic! Maybe someday we'll get down there to Australia to see you!

[@josephbaldino6253]

I had to rewind the video to make sure I heard the atc mention your KZbin channel. You guys could sign autographs now... lol. Great video as usual. Safe travels...

[@lvance3236]

Nothing says "cool" more than a pair of snazzy red, white & blue socks! Enjoy your vids immensely. Keep it up!!

[@walk4God]

This actually helps me with being a passenger. I feel better knowing how professional and human you guys are. Also, a little bit jealous you ate at Franklins!

[@richardgoldman8761]

Great editing guys, arrows are helpful. Plz arrow bird flocks and any UFOs too. 🛸

[@Jay-xd6fz]

I agree, good call.

[@jenniferwhitewolf3784]

Especially the unidentified... now also known as Uncorrelated Tracking Report UTR, in the ‘records’.

[@jameswikstrom4174]

The Corporate Pilot Life is as good as it gets! John even gets to bring his wife to work. You must work for a great employer. Always enjoy your videos. Sorry Jon, it's nice to see your wife but I really miss Francine! It's all in good humor!

[@stephenschwartz5574]

My16 year old just finished ground school and is working toward his private He’s aspiring to continue on Wish you flew into Sacramento what a treat for him to meet you

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Best of luck to him! If we ever get to the area, definitely come out and say hello...

[@stephenschwartz5574]

If you get this way he’d love it He flew to Oshkosh this summer and Bach in an RV10 And helped build a RV14 Hoping you fly this way....

[@johnschlafer7951]

My old base Bergstrom. Use to keep the tower upon flight pubs. Had to watch runway lined up with Austin. Couple of close calls with a few civilian AC landing at Bergstrom. Hope that's fixed

[@niceguy2171]

Nice video and flight although we never got a review on the BBQ! Ask because that's my favorite part of TX, other than the music in Austin, and that looked delicious. Nice designer socks Jon, and she must have dressed you for the flight? ;) It is nice you brought your lovely wife to fly with you on these trips, and will she be working with you guys more in the future? Love the split screens you do at times, so we get a view out the window too, and the airport diagrams and arrow. Couldn't spot that flock of birds though, and good you keep track of them. Await the next video with anticipation, and if you can put in a bit on everyone's thoughts on the BBQ?

[@HGR693]

Glad To See You Using them. Just didn't see it in the video. *put in 36yrs flying USAF

[@av8tore71]

Love it when I climb out of the clouds like that and nothing but blue Sky's!! Nice video

[@CorporatePilotLife]

It never gets old

[@Jhardage62]

I grew up in San Antonio then worked in Austin for 14 years before moving north to Wisconsin. All my family and friends are still there. Really fun town but getting way too crowded. Surprised you could get into Franklins. I was there to see some buddies over Christmas and they had just rebuilt Franklins after major fire damage. Next time go hit the Salt Lick BBQ in Driftwood. It's about 5 miles down the same road from my old home. Really cool setting and the BBQ sauce is super low calorie.....NOT...but tastes great! I really do miss that place. Then you could hit Voodoo Donuts and "Get VD in Austin" as their bumper sticker says. Anyway, as a new Instrument Pilot I really enjoy watching how it's done right. Keep them coming guys!

[@GLDII]

The "steers and . . . . . cattle" comment does take the cake on this one! Love watching you guys!

[@vetterfellow]

Hi Layla, Thanks fer taking us along !! u Guys.

[@jacks4733]

Liked the "Steers and ***" comment. You must have seen "Officer and a Gentleman". Keep 'em coming.

[@pierrelofinusound3020]

...but as non US ppl, i didn't get the PJ13 trick....?? ;D (poster or gun related ?)

[@azjtaylor]

Pierre LOfiNuSound PG-13, means parental guidance age 13 and under. Use for movies that have swearing and scenes not for children. He was joking because of the steer and ***** comment.

[@pierrelofinusound3020]

John Taylor yup :DD i get it now ! So about "Motherland", cattle was the "better" answer than qu@#€.! And i just remember this extra grand opening of "full metal jacket", and the very unusual way that major saw TEXAS ! ;D *SIR, YES, SIR* ! Sorry for my dumb question, but it's always a pleasure to learn some private jokes from other countries.

[@KrisswUK1]

Hi Guys and Layla, Great videos my wife and I watch them almost as soon as you post them. You travel to all the places we love in the US, we are in the UK by the way and have been making trips across the pond for 23 years to go on road trips. We have two states left to see and we have done them all. Keep them coming we really enjoy a few vlog'ers over there who take us around the US whilst we sit at home in deepest darkest Hertfordshire dreaming of the next time we fly the pond.

[@eptyr12]

Franklin's is really really good, I am glad you had a chance to eat some of it. He is genuinely a great guy too.

[@fineartz99]

Freezing rain here in DFW, TX this morning. You just missed the fun stuff. // Franklin Barbecue in Austin, excellent choice. Hope you enjoyed it. // Fun to watch. You're amazing. Hello to Layla.

[@rdc2724]

Wow man, John has it all.... living the corporate pilot life, and a beautifull............pair of socks :)

[@araknd]

Hope you were able to get into Franklins. Next time if you have time head over to the Salt Lick in Driftwood. Awesome flying videos.

[@mikemartini3813]

Love all the radio chatter. Sooo interesting. Thanks.

[@jjthor407]

I always get butterflies when you guys are taking the corner for take off .

[@bs2502]

Awesome as usual guys. Can your jobs even get better? Beautiful jet, lovely skies and a pretty lady to keep you guys company....damn. Good on you guys.

[@rickwilliams2439]

I love this channel guys! I'm just a fireman in Daytona but I've always had a fascination with flying. Never have had any pilot experience but it's cool learning off of your channel... Maybe my next career in 7 years.

[@320Scott]

No such thing as "just" a fireman. Thanks for helping to keep your community safe!

[@keithmiller1314]

Another great one guys. Thanks for showing us the departure clearance on the fms....

[@kramerica2k10]

Next time in Austin you need to check out Iron Works BBQ downtown if you haven't been there before. Was our favorite when we lived there.

[@ajonesieee3691]

Awesome video! Hope to see you guys back here again soon! Pretty cool seeing myself in the video! I was the first guy you saw walking by before you turned into your spot!

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Nice! Thank you guys for the awesome service!

[@danrutherford9056]

Hey guys going to be buying lunch at Jet Runway Cafe this Saturday...lunch me and my wife 12:30 pm I’m the Naples FL fan,!

[@PHLpilot]

So happy to see how your channel has grown. Awesome work my friend. Hey At 6:09 look at your backup altimeter. Looks like it got stuck then jumped 200ft. Then it jumped around a few more times.

[@deibertmichael]

Whoa the Bar B Q looked good even at 5:30 Am. Glad the Wife can come along and have fun! A ton of great Shows in Vegas!

[@alanpeterson2160]

Great job everyone. Looking forward to the video about both of your flying history. Smooth skies !

[@j.carneageyoung7345]

Jon's wife made sure his sock game was on point! :) great video guys...

[@christopheralthouse6378]

I love how you two can joke around and still sound professional... Cracks me up! 😂 *Pilot voice* My ears are popping again... That's because you're a pansy because it's normal... Is it? *never ONCE break monotone* 😂😂😂😂

[@joshmarkham8158]

Franklin taught me to bbq through KZbin. Now I’m interested in learning to fly one day. It’s all coming full circle haha Is there a take a subscriber to work day? One lucky viewer...maybe a giveaway sweepstakes. Just an idea...always neat to see you guys come in and out of my hometown Orlando! Keep filming

[@CorporatePilotLife]

That's a pretty good idea. The logistics could be a nightmare, but I'll work on that

[@MattQ1987]

It's nice to see more G-IV pilot's. I fly right seat in a G-IV for NetJets. I've been watching your Video's since you had 500 subscribers.

[@ykaplun6947]

Nice to finally meet Layla... really appreciate the arrows... Use them more often, please. PIP another terrrific feature. Quite the sartorial statement Jon.

[@jenniferwhitewolf3784]

I patch my old jeans when they get holes....Never understood the fashion statement of ripped up holes in jeans. Back in the 60s we used paisley pattern fabrics for patches, and even added thin wedges to flare into bell bottoms..

[@edsweeney9071]

Sometime back you were talking about Franklins BBQ. Was going to recommend a place in Houston called Corkscrew BBQ. Couple reasons-it’s plain good and it’s fairly close to IAH - Spring Texas-about 15 minutes from the airport.

[@markchamberlain6607]

Your landings are great! I see in a lot of other videos if you watch you can tell when their wheels touch doun because there is a little bounce in the camera, but, yours vertually don't move. Great job.

[@EagleGolden4444]

Great vid, as usual....and mighty nice to see some beauty on board!! :)

[@easttexan2933]

Franklin's sustained lots of fire damage a few month ago. Glad to see it back in business. Eeez pritty good. I especially like the ribs.

[@donclark8484]

Thanks for sharing a little bit of your life it’s nice if you can take some family with you at times

[@fetchit55]

Hope you got to Franklin’s early. Not my favorite, but within the top five. Enjoying the videos, new and old that I sometimes watch again.

[@mikaelsport1]

I like how John’s wife sneaks a peak at her phone trying not to alert you guys , but the camera 📷 captures everything 😆😆. Thanks for your posts ,great job .. I’m a subscriber..:) cheers , Good day 🛩.

[@Walramirez]

Hi guys! Love the overhead perspective! Franklin’s bbq is the best if you’re willing to wait in line and there’s food left. Well done!

[@XX-166]

Awesome channel. Miss these guys

[@peep39]

Very nice video, I really like how you coordinate the cockpit controls with what the airplane is doing. Very informative and fun

[@vcomvp]

Great videos! And Jon spells his name the right way! Keep the videos coming!

[@camdaddy623]

Sean, thanks for showing more of the taxiing. Love it!

[@scottreid4170]

Nice video. Austin and Franklin's have been on my short list for a little while now. Dude is king of BBQ

[@GeraldLaumeyer]

Thanks for showing the instrument panels was awesome to see. Great job as always

[@hpflyboi]

John those socks LOL!!! I want a candy cane for some weird reason all of the sudden. Love ya guys. New to your channel and can't get enough.

[@elmagnifico5225]

Hey guys, love the videos my wife and kids are hooked as well.. Keep ‘em coming.. Let me know when you guys are in Chicago.. C’ya!

[@aviation4017]

Another great video man,defiantly keeps me motivated to keep working on my ratings. Wish blue skies ahead!

[@mehmeh9748]

Darn you KZbin... I was already short on time! These VLOGs are too awesome!

[@myckee]

Ya, John looks like he's starving alright LOL! Nothing compares to Tx BBQ.

[@davidC23333]

Another great video guys! Appreciate all the uploads. Stay safe in the sky 👍🏻

[@mbail64]

I know this is an old video but being from Texas and loving my barbecue I had to watch it. STEERS and what were you going to say there buddy. Great job on the save finally going to get my instrument rating in the spring

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Excellent! Being from Texas myself, Jon always has to push my buttons on that one...

[@tuborgcarlsberg1184]

I thought maybe you won the girl in a jackpot in Las Vegas. Nice watching you guys good job.

[@panderson9561]

I can't believe you've never heard of Franklin's. That place is world famous, some of the best, if not the best, BBQ in Texas.

[@bigd-1-channel514]

Great video, ultra pro management, skilled and in sync.

[@jesperhouken8075]

Next time in Austin drive the 20 miles out to Driftwood and go to Salt Lick BBQ. Bring cash as they are a cash only place but man you will never forget this place. They have a helipad, but that will require something besides the G4 to land there.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

That place must be amazing, because we've heard several people saying it's the best. It's on the list for the next trip to Austin...now I can't wait for it.

[@donc9751]

1st video I watched of yours and really enjoyed it! I'm a non pilot but always loved the dream of it. You guys seem incredibly competent and fun to watch. Corporate pilot flying nice jets sounds like a great life! On the 1st take off as you got off the ground, I saw the man in the left seat (John I believe now) lean forward towards the yolk and for a second I thought ohhh s##t what if the yolk got pushed down while still so low immedistly after rotate off, but like I said I'm a non pilot. Enjoyed the video, thanks guys and safe travels!

[@CorporatePilotLife]

HAHA! I never noticed that before. The camera angle makes it look much closer than it actually is, but he was nowhere near the yoke. Thanks for watching, and I'm glad you liked the video!

[@donc9751]

Corporate Pilot Life It was the perspective/angle from behind, and I'm sure it sounded really like a dumb thing to say lol after watching more videos I see you always have a bit of a reach for the gear up/down levers.....forgive my ignorance lol

[@ericschout8058]

thanks for pointing with the red arrows. that helps understanding. vids get better and better! Good job!!

[@zuddl]

Love you're stuff and the cool Breitling. Entertaining and educational, thanks.

[@NebbieNZ]

Great team you two are, Great flight... Subscribed :) happy flying.

[@gst69man]

impressed on the teamwork you both exhibit. good vids.

[@davidgillis9953]

Franklin ‘s is ok, but if you want really great BBQ, head about 20 miles south of AUS to Luling and go to City Market. Best in Texas!

[@flyboybobio3431]

Franklins is awesome. Haven’t tried it myself but all the reviews are great. Best Brisket anywhere. Safe flight. Great video as usual.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

The brisket was really good

[@dannyefrank9930]

If y’all ever make it to McKinney tx you need to try Hutchins bbq! Amazing food. Great video.

[@DHKEYWEST1]

Yeah I hear the food is great. Like to buy a whole beef brisket someday. People start standing in line at day light. You all were lucky they had not run out of food.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

We were very close...they ran out about 15 people after us!

[@briankjenkins]

Some one beat me to the star spangled socks lol. Do you usually fly with your shoes off? That has to be a heavenly feeling. Can’t wait to hear your story. Safe flying to you guys

[@CorporatePilotLife]

The shoes get kicked off at top of climb usually

[@clem29120]

Hey guys ! Nice to see you, again bound to LAS, seems that your owners like this city :) It is really nice of them to let Jon's wife come along :) I wish to bring mine flying in a G4 one day :) I'll be looking forward to your next video about your career path, should be interesting :) Safe Flights ! Clement

[@christhys7041]

Thanks for the response. I fly the 737 and we accelerate out of 1000 AGL for the flap retraction. Fly safe. Cheers

[@joshacosta5772]

I like that you’re both wearing navitimers

[@annburleson6118]

Love your videos! Very patriotic socks John!

[@Cougar1212]

John, those socks!! Is there a Ronald Mcdonald somewhere running around barefooted? : )

[@rkb8100]

First time viewer. You guys are impressive, work great together!
