Flying Dad to Breakfast | Cessna 172 | Airport Diner

Watch as Dad and I fly our Skyhawk to Fredericksburg to grab some breakfast! Enjoy!

[@benjaminhenry6598]

I bet your dad loves that he gets to spend that much time with you flying and sharing your love for aviation!

[@ProFsxVideos]

I'm sorry...but this is by far my favorite aviation channel on KZbin. Love the content and the professionalism! --Mike

[@GamePlayWithNolan]

Why are you sorry? lol, that's a good thing!

[@mikepaz4870]

+GamePlayWithNolan try Steveo1kinevo and flight chops as well :)

[@GamePlayWithNolan]

Mike Paz Yup, I already watch them, and CaptMoonBeam

[@mbhayguy2406]

I'm sorry, but are you a fellow Canadian? Again, sorry about that.

[@xaifer2485]

[@TomSmith-io9uk]

Your dad can be proud of you. You do all the correct things and you always put safety first Good Job.

[@vaos]

Taking off from rwy35 makes a right turn of 10deg to a heading 360 :)

[@hunterfagan6272]

vaos what about it?

[@farmgene]

Thought the same!

[@Haloman414]

Gotta go get those $100 pancakes lol

[@deanc.5984]

I was only able to fly with my dad just one time. I remember all the model planes he bought me, airshows he took me to when i was a kid. Those were good times.

[@Faben202]

Great video, really enjoyed it and your professionalism. I like that you're calling "gear up" also, lol. One of the main reasons why I want to get my PPL is so I can do these types of flights with my dad. Keep it up, hope you get to fly corporate pretty soon!

[@Derpyre]

Hoping my dad is looking at a future Cessna pilot as well.. very into flying and hoping to be able to fly my dad around like this one day. Amazing channel, new sub! :)

[@CCitis]

Does the yoke mount cause issues for full deflection? I like your setup, but have always had concerns about that. I haven't found a good way to use my Ipad yet. In a Skyhawk and Cherokee.

[@Justcruzinn]

I’m sure your pops is proud of you! Awesome video 👍🏼🤙

[@multitieredinvestor183]

Last time I was at Gillespie County Fredericksburg, saw my old Comanche 180 landing. My two former partners aboard.

[@livingthedash6727]

How'd that pan out? Lol

[@heyitsaph]

cant wait to do stuff like this with my dad...except i dont own a plane..

[@billigerfusel]

And dont have a dad...

[@algorithm1193]

F to pay respects

[@ADVlife287]

Ben Berger you can rent cessna planes for $100/hr wet. Not bad in the world of aviation

[@michaelg.9791]

Classic car will do.

[@efrancis19]

I just love seeing the relationship you have with your dad. Oh, and the flying is good too! haha, thanks for posting.

[@edadan]

Was/is your dad a pilot too?

[@andrewjohnson9279]

Good times with Dad are priceless. Thanks for sharing.

[@mcguffindoe192]

Andrew Johnson wish i knew the feeling

[@2018paulrobbinx]

From what I have found the earlier in the morning that you request Your clearance the quicker you'll get it with Austin. At 50R we have to do it over the phone. XD

Food looks great! :) Waitress too

[@TherebyAir]

You were using Garmin Pilot in the past... did you switch to Foreflight?

[@BinaryShad0]

Do you have experience with any of them? I'm a new student pilot and trying to decide which one is better.

[@TherebyAir]

It's been years since I used Foreflight. I suspect both will have the same functionality. When I made the switch I found the menus and app navigation to be better in Garmin Pilot. The large icons are easier to use in bright bumpy cockpits. I'm sure you'd be happy with either app though, but decide before investing in ADS-B equipment because that sort of locks you in. They typically aren't cross compatible.

[@av8bear385]

Great video!

[@chadelliott7629]

Great video, nice to see someone who understands what life is all about.

[@Countess_Samar_SprayArt]

I miss flying like crazy. It bums me out because I have completely forgotten how to talk on the radio like a pilot.

[@leodanryan966]

I used to go flying with a buddy of mine who was accumulating cross country time for his commercial license. I don't have a pilot's license but he'd let me do some of the easy stuff. I don't think he ever got his commercial license. He and I both together met a guy who put us both into the computer industry. I don't think we ever made it to Fredricksburg, but we went to Castroville, Victoria, Hondo, Austin and I think we landed in New Braunfels once. He was working at Wright Flyers fueling and washing airplanes.

[@TheFlightSimDeck]

Thanks for sharing your flight with us! Breakfast looked great, made me hungry.

[@brendanfreed]

Great video, I loved the vlog-style twist at the end. Always been a fan of yours!

[@willieb6993]

Really cool that you can share this experience with your father. Good times!

[@fergusonhr]

is that a superb bowl ring on dad's finger?

[@AirspotterUK]

Its great to be able to fly with your dad like that, Creating great Memories.

[@mikepaz4870]

Biscuits and Gravy Texas style ! Damn Son, yaal went and made me hungry for some down home cookin I live in the east and the only way to get it is to cook it your self. My Eggs Benidict is awesome but biscuits and gravy does not bode well :( So I always get a vicarious thrill when you r ago in Ta BBQ ! Brisket, links , chicken damn son ! Thanks again it is lovely to see you and your Dad in your awesome relationship. He put the airplane bug on you and you share your love of Aviation as well as allow us to see the LOVE you give Dad and Dad to you. U r blessed

[@gostur7415]

This is exactly what I want to do for my dad sometime in the future

[@CaptainProspect007]

Currently going through flight training and cannot wait to be able to do something like this with my dad =)

[@glennmcmurtrie2508]

You are one of the nicest person to do that for your dad

[@Liofa73]

Hehe, he kind of owes his dad a breakfast or two after the "incident". :)

[@algorithm1193]

Fill me in, uneducated here. (the bent elevator?)

[@adamwyn6362]

Awesome video as always josh, thanks for sharing. I recommend not being in the habit of putting landing gear up in a single engine aircraft until you are out of usable runway. Speaking from experience...I had a fuel flow issue in a mooney at about 25 AGL on the takeoff roll, let's just say I was glad my gear wasn't up. Keep up the great work!

[@toStringy]

Was that an Obama burger? Your/his dad said?

[@Aviation101]

HELL no! *Bomber* burger!

[@toStringy]

Haha! Ok thanks! I'm from the UK and I kinda thought they wouldn't call it that; being Texas and all :D Great vid, I'm a fan of seeing what 'happens' at the destination as much as the 'ride' getting there :)

[@JordanBulthuis]

+MrAviation101 love your response, Obama is the worst U.S President

[@yogib37]

did your Bomber burger have Cheese and Bacon on it.. you know that is only way to have one :D That look very yummy.

[@jayphilipwilliams]

FDR and Obama are competitors for that title.

[@RKHarm24]

Anytime spent with Dad is great, food is right there next.

[@KM-yl9lc]

Love this video! Keep them coming :)

[@MotorsbyShooter]

You might try the diner at Hicks Field just North of Saginaw, Texas sometime...especially for a Saturday or Sunday morning breakfast.

[@johnprice7303]

I am a fan of your videos, and of your brilliant piloting skills... but not a particular fan of your persona, I have always thought of you as slightly 'cocky' but assumed that it was an act to impress your usual female passengers. I was wrong! even with your Dad in the cockpit...you still babbled at the speed of a turbo charged Uzi! Tone the babble down a bit! There is no doubt about your flying skills...but you could do worse (personality wise) than copy the example your urbane Dad. Oh! and BTW... I love the breakfast...both of 'em!

[@yodacodm2168]

Does the GoPro on the roof stick fine with just the suction glass? I thought it only works on glass lol

[@ewelshjr]

That was an awesome Video. I love your videos man. What camera do you use to film?

[@ryanmatthew511]

Ipads--- becoming the ultimate distraction! Looking the inaccurate synthetic vision as you enter the runway...can't you just look outside? I find that is great for an emergency backup. I personally believe during normal ops iPads should not be allowed to be attached to yokes. I guess to each his own.

[@chrisberg4952]

Clean

[@ellonysman]

Now that you’ve got your I.f,r, rating, what’s next??👍😃🤷🏻‍♂️

[@thierryvt]

he's using foreflight isn't he... I want it but those fuckers won't come to Europe, meanwhile i'm stuck with skydemon. Which gets the job done but just isn't as nice as foreflight. bah

[@cdesha]

I fly from Boerne stage to Fredericksburg to go to the Hangar Diner pretty frequently myself!

[@gordonfeliciano4315]

I was taught to announce the type and color of your aircraft at non-towered airports rather than your registration number. For example, "Longmont traffic, red and white Skyhawk taking the active runway two niner, left downwind departure, Longmont." Or, if in the traffic pattern, "Longmont traffic, red and white Skyhawk wings up, left base runway two niner, Longmont." As everyone mentioned before, the other aircraft won't be able to see your registration number. They're more interested in knowing what type you are and where you are in relation to their position.

[@nehemiahcovey7250]

Right turn, 10 degrees to 360 from RWY heading 35. ;). Cool videos though!

[@Skymasterin2006]

Previous you had the Garmin GDL and now the Stratus 2S. Which one do you like better?

[@TeemarkConvair]

did i see an OV-10 with a blanket over the cockpit on the ramp? there was a B-25 that you followed to take off once, as well, maybe a quick local video tour? great to see a smile on your dads face, first time i can recall it..

[@squizzstar182]

What mount are you using for Ipad? Looks like the RAM yoke mount, correct? How do you find it in terms of getting in the way of full and free movement of the yoke?

[@TomSmith-io9uk]

You need to make a trip to Spokane Wa sometime there is a nice cafe called skyway cafe at Felts Field and then you can vist Seattle and the Museum of flight at Boeing field. After that you can fly to Organ and visit the Tilamook air museum which has a bunch of ww2 aircraft after that you can go to Minnville Organ and see the spruce goose. There is lot's to see in the great pacific northwest.

[@TELLITCOUNTRY]

The video was great as usual but I really liked you gave us a view of the diner and the food. You go to many food places and it is nice to see why you were going there and what the food looks like.

[@officialnayem1988]

Hello MrAviation101 I want know how many seats are in Cessna 172? I can't remember is it 4 or 2 seats >:)

[@bbt95762]

awesome video (as always), stupid question, which ipad mount are you using in that video - looks like a nice one - and I'm looking for a Yoke mount for my iPad mini 2

[@ahhmino]

Staying up until 2am to edit the video? Dedication.

[@abbieamavi]

*this is me, except I'm still not doing landings full on my own* but soon! :)

[@limoman23]

Whats the app or program you suggest for maps? Been taking a few flying lessons in a skyhawk 172 and always forget to ask

[@robertmcwilliams6923]

I'm taking it by the Stratus that you have switched to Foreflight? I use it and love it!

[@ericzhang6042]

Hey what is the name of the app you are using? That looks super helpful and similar to g1000

[@Veteran_Aviator]

Thanks for sharing. Forget the DPE checkride. The true test is PIC with your dad. Pass that one and you are good to go.

[@boogerwood]

So blessed to have this experience. Thanks for sharing.

[@master1387]

What is that device you have on the window called? Can I use it for my instrument?

[@ryandibble8674]

Looks like a pretty sweet golf course on the approach end of 14 there. Ever played it?

[@alexpage7351]

What's the white box on your side just in front of the instrument panel attached to the glass

[@legoman5010]

Does the ATC guy at San Marcus know that he is in most of your videos?

[@etdey]

You missed all the clouds. How is it that a broken layer always seems to fade away by the time you climb up to it?

[@BBQSauceman]

When are you going to give Andre a ride? So we can finally see what this guy looks like.

[@Haaaazey]

Im canceling my dream to be a pilot im afraid of hights xDD

[@masterdaddychris5986]

I see you getting gains in your biceps Josh, keep working!

[@redriverraider]

Love staying at the Hanger!

[@612nadiya]

Hey buddy, what is the white box on your windshield windows.?

[@jackkuhl8926]

I may have missed it, but what is the airport identification

[@egmaalouf]

What's the app on the iPad and what does it exactly do?

[@KARTALTOPGUL1970]

Whats is the name of the application you use on iPad?

[@MrVesical]

Great video!!! What's the name of the application on your ipad?? Davide :)

[@etdey]

He's using Foreflight and getting ADS-B input and AHRS (attitude) from the Stratus box on the left window.

[@anikaitdhawas5117]

I hv a question: if I get my private pilot license and ifr rating at my local municipal airport, after that can i go to ATP Flight School and not have to pay for what I already learned and got (licence and ifr)? Thanks!!!

[@apackwestbound5946]

For your ATP license you will need to fly to and demonstrate ATP standards during your checkride. That means being able to control your aircraft through the various required maneuvers to the tolerances specified by the FAA and your pilot examiner. While you do not have to earn your Instrument rating again, you must be able to demonstrate IFR competency to the ATP standard. The ATP license has a time requirement component to it. While preparing for your ATP license you do not need to earn your Private and Commercial (if you have one) license or your instrument rating again. Once you have those (Commercial Pilot License & instrument rating are required for an ATP) license and rating they generally stay yours (unless revoked or surrendered). The skills you develop earning those ratings will have to be built upon, enhanced and refined to pass your ATP license examinations. Some Flight schools and flight training organizations will try and tell you that the name of their school is important and that having trained with them will give you some sort of advantage in getting a job as a pilot. Unless they have a definite agreement with some airline there is no advantage having trained at any specific school. What is important is you learn and understand the material, legitimately log the necessary time to qualify for the checkride, learn the skills and are able to demonstrate to the level required mastery of the skill set required.

[@Fin-Addict1]

what is that app called that you have on your ipad

[@brianwood4170]

The definition of $100 burger.

[@gveduccio]

Good job hold back to make a nice smooth landing

[@tadeuszlufik]

@2:16 lol it was a grass strip there for a second

[@johanjansen6303]

When will you install the Autopliot?

[@Tiger-xg5oj]
