Absolute amazing! Thank you, Micke for this experienece!

[@NDCDA62]

Another excellent ferry flight video in this spectacular Diamond DA40 NG Micke. Such a reliable and safe aircraft - well done !!

[@MickeLang]

Thank you Nigel! Hope to see you soon! Maybe we can get cameras in your aircraft too some day!

[@mail2myaccount]

Hi Micke. Your ferry flight videos are very authentic and always interesting to watch. In addition to the great scenary it would also be nice to see more of the PFD / MFD - I am so amazed by the G1000 :-). Thanks for the great work and looking forward to the next video. Happy Landings.

[@MickeLang]

Hi there! thanks for the feedback, will try to adapt that☺️ Thank you!

[@everflywings]

Great video and series!

[@rizeldy3354]

Wow amazing video keepsafe on air sir

[@farismufti]

Your ferry flight videos made me really excited to one day fly a long route on the DA42 or 62

[@MickeLang]

I can only recommend that😉😊

[@Llaaban]

A question / topic that you can talk about in a coming video: How did you become a ferry pilot? And how did your journey at Diamond Aircraft start? What are your future plans in terms of aviation? Keep up the great work Micke!

[@MickeLang]

Good one! Will answer that for sure in one of the next ones👍🏼 Thank you☺️

[@thecommentator6450]

nice video

[@GabrielTOIC2]

Hey Micke! Amazing video again! Could you make a video showing and talking about the flight planning of these ferry flights across different countries? Showing how you study and check about air traffic rules from those different countries, the differences, etc. Do you use Jeppesen manual for that? Or prefer to see the AIP of each country Best regards from Brazil!

[@MickeLang]

Please check out the Flightchops series when we flew across the Atlantic, Steve covered that a lot ☺️👍🏼

[@ryancrazy1]

Since getting my private I've been excited to do an actual cross country flight to an actual destination.

[@rizeldy3354]

Hello watching here

[@spiderjoeri]

Hey Micke, was looking forward for this final episode! Great video as always! Here's a question for you: "How did you get into the ferrying business for Diamond Aircraft?". I am pursuing a similar job in aviation and am interested to know your story. Thank you!

[@MickeLang]

Thank you☺️☺️☺️ Good question for an upcoming video☺️ Good luck Joeri!

[@MattyCrayon]

Great set of videos, flying down to Saudi Arabia. Some fantastic scenery and places I'll probably never get too. Creative camera shots and editing too. Keep up the great work. Safe flying. 👍 Question for md flight - Does your company arrange all visa's etc, or do you have to do that?

[@MickeLang]

Thank you Matty :) Company 👍🏼

[@danthecorkman]

Thanks again for the video. How do pilots manage ‘calls of nature’ on these longer flights?

[@death39399]

Hi Mick, thank you for sharing all the ferry flight video. It's really enjoy to see all the scenic view and all the flight operation. I'm a student pilot and fly the DA-40 NG. However, I'm kinda scared of the first solo flight. Do you have any advice to reduce the anxiety? By the way, in our flight school the DA 40 stall warning horn will horning when we are practice landing during the flare. But in you video i didn't hear the stall horn? Did you turned it off? Thank you

[@MickeLang]

Hi Allen! Just be focused and enjoy it, no need to be “scared”. I’m sure your instructor trained you well and he would not let you go solo if he wouldn’t think that you’re ready☺️🤘🏼 Actually you can not turn off the stall horn😉 It depends how you land the 40, but to be fair, i turn down the audio file of the non intercom camera while editing, otherwise it would be to annoying listening to the loud sound☺️

[@death39399]

Thank you so much👍👍 I can feel the power💪🏽

[@markusscharer3868]

Well done 👌 What does it takes to be able to do ferry flights?

[@rwegert]

Question for next flight: how extensive is the planning for a flight like this? Permits, fuel, route and handling etc?

[@MAGApepe]

nice,, good to see they have a built in checklist now,,, should be split screen on the pdf thou

[@MickeLang]

They are great! don’t you think it would be a overload of information then? In the big jets they don’t have it on the PDF either🤷🏼‍♂️☝🏼

[@MAGApepe]

@@MickeLang ya thats goofy and too far reach to have it on the mfd ,, 1/3 split on the pfd would be sweet :))

[@davidschlenker8260]

Even though we haven't seen too many shots from the instrument panel his time I'm really interested in the power settings und fuel flow numbers you use on ferry flights. What I've seen from your previous flights is, that you use around 70-75 % in cruise while flying relatively short legs (compared to the maximum range of a DA-40). So my question is, why you're not using a lower setting (e.g. 60 % as published by Diamond Aircraft for maximum range) for greater range which would result in fewer stops and probably faster overall travel time? Is it for convience or do you have to do a stop after a certain time, or something else maybe?

[@MickeLang]

Hi David, that's a good question. In some countries you are limited to some airports due to insurance, customs, immigration, landing fees, hotel availability, handling services or fuel availability. For example, we refuel so little that some airports just don't want us because it would not be profitable for them. So this is why you have to fly certain routes and some times they are longer and sometimes they are shorter. And to this we adapt our power setting. And the next thing we have to consider is wind. Having 50 knots on the nose in a DA40 is not the nicest thing to have :P Feel free and try to plan a ferry from LOAN to OEDF and tell me what route you would choose. You will see that's not so easy ;)

[@HelgeFRNuhn]

Hi Micke, before the final leg, did you have to again wait for the second cleared for takeoff when you asked for two more minutes on the holding point, or would you technically still have been cleared?

[@MickeLang]

Hi Helge, I still had to do my “before take off” checklist which includes the ECU test. This takes a minute or two so this is why I told him that I need 2 more minutes :)

[@michaelatinkut6381]

Sometimes, when you land. u only use takeoff of flap not landing.what is the reason behind i am a big fun i saw all of your videos. Keep it up 😊😊

[@MickeLang]

Hi Michael, if you go to the Ethiopia ferry flight day 2, you will find the explanation before landing in Sudan☺️ Thank you!!

[@Jonas-xq5sv]

Great video Micke. What was your longest trip and how do you feel when flying above the sea / ocean outside of glide distance?

[@MickeLang]

Do you mean longest leg or total trip? Actually I feel very good ;) I think it would be the wrong attitude if I would think about the worst too much BUT that does not mean that I am not prepared ;)

[@Jonas-xq5sv]

@@MickeLang longest trip total. I recently saw on Instagram that one of your colleagues ( I think Fabio) flew to Asia. Kinda curious if trips like this happen often.

[@MickeLang]

@@Jonas-xq5sv For me it was Ethiopia regarding distance. Yes that’s correct he flew to Asia recently☺️

[@aadlub]

im so happy because qassim airport is the airport which is closest to me

[@MickeLang]

That’s cool!

[@michaelmorcos8934]

How do you go around the flight planning from Greece to Egypt, it is an NG so it is a Jet-A but any experience with 100LL? and lastly where would you get the flight charts? Thanks in advance and great job! Shoukran :)

[@MickeLang]

I use Foreflight for flight planning. No I never flew an Avgas plane down there. Charts are in the plane plus in Foreflight on the Ipad☺️

Interesting looking oxygen mask you're wearing at 10:00. Is it because the cabinet cannot be pressurized ?

How do you know the duration requirements for flight plan in each country so you don't wait grounded? I know some countries must submit 48 hrs in advance With weather changes and all..hiw does it all work without wait

[@MickeLang]

The flight plans are usually put into the system the day before departure if the permission number is available.

Dear Micke Hope you re doing good.thanks for the good video. Can you let me know which company you are using for over flight and landing permit if you don’t mind? I am getting close to move my aircraft from denmark to Europe

Thanks for the comment. In Europe you usually don't need these permits as long as you are a civil flight. May I ask you you wrote it correctly, because Denmark is in Europe. BR Micke

You asked me to ask, so here it is: Will I fulfill my goal of owning a DA62 while I still have air in my lungs to enjoy it?

[@patrickmcguire1988]

How do you get home after you deliver the plane? Commercial carrier? Also, I can only understand about 50% of what you and tower tell each other on the radio. Why don’t just slow down a little bit, else maybe misunderstanding can result?

[@MickeLang]

Yes I fly plane with the airlines. Until now I never had communication problems while flying ;)

[@deltabravo9766]

In these countries it's better to have stripes when you move around on airports. Has nothing to do with my flying skills LOL, still flying a 1310 kg aircraft haha

[@captaintT]

@@MickeLang haha ok mate :) because I am also flying DA-40 withaout stripes I realy like your videos.

[@aungkyawmoe]

You must be very tired. On final ILS approach, you keep saying “flaps take off” instead of “flaps landing.” Good fight.

[@MickeLang]

Hello Aung, that’s correct, I keep saying flaps “t/o” because I did a landing with the flaps in that position. You can hear that before I am setting them. So all good😉
