Diamond DA62, From Cold and Dark to Ready for Taxiing, partly German

[@Dhrruvv]

Man you're living my dreams...🙏 Can't wait to see your video on a pressured turbine airplane with your little one soon.

[@aviator267]

Living the dream for sure

[@Dhrruvv]

@@aviator267 I'm guessing that you are an airline pilot. Do you guys make that kind of money to own a DA62? Just asking🙏

[@aviator267]

@@Dhrruvv I’m still paying off my BlackShape Prime 🤣🤣🤦‍♂️

[@hudsoncraftworks]

Very nice, thank you for the walkthrough.

[@wolfgangkarner]

Thanx, appreciate your comment!

[@r0tb3rt]

Ich würde so gerne mal in einer Da62 fliegen. Tolles Flugzeug.

[@sesvid]

Nice 👍 thanks for uploading ✌️

[@wolfgangkarner]

My pleasure! Thank you for watching!

[@aeroalexGR]

Very nice

[@wolfgangkarner]

THX!

[@steffenschmitt3736]

Upgrade to Nxi? Is the upgrade to the M600 still in the picture? Love the DA62 though, great bird 👍🏻

[@wolfgangkarner]

Not an upgrade - NXi already had been installed in the DA62 (built 2019)! We were joking about the last complex software update ;-). Well an upgrade to a pressurized turbine plane is still on the schedule ... it certainly will take a while ;-)

[@And_Rotate]

Hey man, mind if I ask about your body height? Just wanted to get a sense about the space in DA62. Thanks, great video btw!

[@wolfgangkarner]

The pilot is about 180 cm and myself, the one with the camera, I am 190 cm. And I assure you, there is plenty of space left above my head. The DA62 ist the most spaceous plane of its class ...

[@And_Rotate]

@@wolfgangkarner ah, i see, thanks for the timely reply!

[@wolfgangkarner]

@@And_Rotate My pleasure ;-)

[@apzeiroturbo]

Loved the video. Can you tell about what was you writing in your iPad? Seem to sign something. Thank you.

[@i_mixr]

It was most likely the weather/ATIS.

[@wolfgangkarner]

Markus is lissening to the ATIS on the radio and is writing down things like wind information, runway in use, air pressure, etc. ....

[@apzeiroturbo]

@@wolfgangkarner thank you.

[@BobABooey.]

Nice Daytona.

[@Shubham_Sinn]

U need a paperlike matte screen on the ipad...

[@wolfgangkarner]

Would be helpful ... but it is more a problem when filming from the copilot's seat ;-)

[@Realhussl1]

15k für ein Softwareupdate? 😳

[@wolfgangkarner]

... war nicht das erste Update ... ;-) die Bayern sagen: "sie nehmen's halt von den Lebendigen" ... porta.aero/en/products/garmin-1000-nxi-upgrade

[@karlheinzbaumann167]

Servus, was würde ich dafür geben mal an deiner Seite mitfliegen zu dürfen. Cooler Typ echt stark. Macht weiter so, damit ich Eindrücke vom echten fliegen bekomme. Bemerkenswert.

[@wolfgangkarner]

Hi Karlheinz, danke für dein positives Feedback. Leider ist die Warteliste wegen der Corona-Geschichte für Passengers sehr, sehr lang. Ich fürchte, du musst noch reichlich Geduld haben, bis sowas mal funktionieren würde. Im Prinzip sind solche lokalen Trainingsflüge eher selten, weil doch meistens bestimmte Destinationen für mehrere Tage angeflogen werden ...

[@MathiasEmilKuntz1994]

you forgot to switch the light to position lights after start up, usually done before avionics master. Also sorry to say this but you have to cut out your verbs from the checklist. Gear "is" down, Avoinics master "is" off

[@wolfgangkarner]

Well, your remarks are totally inappropriate! According to the DA62 check list ACL (strobe lights) are set before engine start. And this was done and that's it! Concerning wording: this is not an airliner cockpit where all operations are performed under Crew-Recource-Management conditions and defined phraseology. So the wording of the (single) pilot can be performed individually and it is perfectly okay to say: the gear "is" down - as long as the gear IS down!

[@ShortApproach]

Even in airliners there are huge differences from company to company. For example, some airlines say "We go" instead of "V1", in order to put emphasis on the we will not discontinue anymore. And Wolfgang is correct: I also fly Diamond (42NG, the 4 seat version of this aircraft) and the strobes are used instead of the beacon (which there is none). Position lights are normally turned on before taxi, but not before engine start.
