Great to see you back! You’re a pilot after my own heart with flying your classic 140; what a beaut, and the joy of flying at lower speed enhances the experience, easily mitigated by giving yourself extra time. Kudos!

[@countryvideo]

Thank you Stevie. I enjoy your videos and love the way you verbalize your procedures. You are such a good pilot and I greatly enjoy the way you take us all with you. I am too old to fly now but greatly appreciate the memories your videos bring back. Lot’s of love. May the Lord always be with you. Bruce

[@RestorativeRenaissance]

I’ve gone from being afraid of flying to wanting to fly a plane because of your beautiful videos. Thank you ☺️

[@scottkleyla7752]

Go with a good friend you trust,no unknown recommended for inline flight attack and watch them register at the airport the flight plan for a no surprise destination landing with confidence. A unscheduled golf trip to Bahama's could challenge the fuel flight time and distance,plus you paying expenses while kidnapped?

Welcome to retiredville@indianabeach

[@robertrichards4236]

My neighbor owns a 1964 Piper PA-22 Tri-Pacer. He and a buddy went to Oshkosh from Louisville back in early 2000's, but haven't been back. I mentioned to him that I haven't seen any posts lately from a gal named Stevie who I have followed on KZbin, and who owns a Bonanza and a Cessna 140. I then said I'll bet that with Oshkosh coming up week of the 15th, that she'll post her trip, and by gosh here you are. Thanks. I've enjoyed your travels with trips on the ground during refurbishments and in the air cross country.

[@jimmydulin928]

Nice C-140A. I got my commercial in that airplane in 1969 and instructed in it at Monte Vista, Colorado in the 70s. Nice job first leg. Don't delay wheel landing training until the desire to get somewhere like Oshkosh puts you into a strong crosswind component situation that makes three point landing more dangerous. In no wind, the wheel landing is just a three point landing right up to the point of touch down and then forward on the yoke. In a strong headwind, or headwind component in a crosswind, your pitch attitude will already be wheel landing. You will have no choice. And you may touch down faster than Vso, an out of ground effect number. We actually need to be much slower than Vso in one inch ground effect (strong ground effect) in order to quit flying and land. So here you are level at touchdown and may need to push just a bit on the yoke to stay planted and not fly again. Good job on second leg. Good landing. Good rudder control short final and landing. I saw very little steering wheel muscle memory with its wing wagging and nose going the wrong way with adverse yaw. Good job third leg. Good rudder work keeping wings level by maintaining target (or exact heading) with rudder yaw only. I didn't see any wing wagging in the rough air. Notice on videos the yoke movement (aileron movement with adverse yaw). We are coordinated only when we lead rudder and we need no bank anyway when we want to go straight. Good control touch.

[@edgaulden2324]

You make it seem all so easy!

[@bobbolieu9013]

I loved seeing the orange and white radial engine bird at Dubuque fuel stop. Pretty cool.

[@Xaunoki]

Super cool to see you land at KDBQ! Hope you enjoyed your short stay. I like to think we have the best tower controllers. Awesome guys! Our airport has hosted the National Air Trainers Association for the past few years. I started working at the FBO last year and it's a blast to host those guys! Sitting on the wings of T-6's all day fueling is a job that I thoroughly enjoy. Have fun at Oshkosh!

[@terrystewart7675]

Welcome back Stevie. Missed you.

[@HDR12302]

Nice Job with the SEE YA! Kinda the thing with the DBQ pilots because that guy running the tower says “see ya” a lot when you switch frequencies. Awesome seeing it the planes in DBQ, See ya in a week!

[@tsbrownie]

Noticed right away your excellent radio technique. Well maintained plane too. I've flown out of New Century when it was called Johnson County Industrial Airport. Brings back memories. I don't fly anymore, but my favorite flight that you might enjoy was a big loop that started up the West coast to Ketchikan, AK, Kittimat, BC, Prince George, MacKenzie, "The Trench" (Canada's Grand Canyon), Watson Lake, Fort Nelson, Liard NDB, Fort St John, Prince George, Quesnel, Williams Lake, Chilliwack, Abbotsford Airport, Troutdale and back home. We flew a 172, which did it with some effort. Anyway, enjoy your flying. It's over all too soon.

You probably aren’t going to expect this, but I’ve never flown in a plane. Watching this makes me WANT TO! Your Cessna and Bonanza are excellent examples of planes that I like watching flying in the air. My grandpa got me into them (wasn’t a pilot, but he worked on them), and now I love them as well. Hopefully, I can experience what it is like in one! Dreams sometimes come true and I’m holding it to that! Welcome back, Stevie. Sure is nice you posted again! :))
