Flying into San Diego International in a Cessna 172

[@ILoveToast97]

Took my first ride on Saturday with a buddy of mine who is a pilot. i gotta say it was an amazing experience . ive been on youtube for the past few days just watching videos like these. i really think i want to start training to become a pilot. i hope things work out and that i will be able to become a pilot eventually.

pretty cool. That Alaska Airlines jet sitting there waiting for you to land.

nothing better than flying a cessna 172.

I’m born and raised in San Diego and now currently living in Dallas TX. Dream would be to fly out to San Diego once I become a pilot. Until then thank you for the incredible views on the approach!!

jokerh067 do it! Thank you

Thanks for the ride, great flight.👍🛩

Awesome video! I have a 172A, based in Kansas City MO, last May I was flying to San Diego but weather stopped me at Sedona Arizona, I’m VFR only. I definitely will make that trip to San Diego, I would like to fly up the coast, maybe to John Wayne airport. Thanks again!!!

I’ve been watching your vids for awhile now, I’m working on my commercial at KIWA through ATP. I hope to be where you’re at one day!

Flew to SAN at night in Piper years ago dinged 25$ ramp fee in the 1980's at night

[@PropGear]

Jeff Daugherty that’s awesome, ya we got fuel at signature and that surprisingly waived all other fees

@@PropGear cool. Hope u post San-SBA you can go tower to tower IFR with out filing ifr

Syn Zen Kitchen ha, the funny thing is your views and comment makes me money. I grew up on food stamps with a single mom. But I’m glad I’m doing better than you.

[@MrTimetravler]

Cool bro thanks for sharing! I am on my way to get my ppl question what type wire did you use for the audio to the GoPro? I what to video tape my training like you just did thanks!

[@PropGear]

MrTimetravler I had a GoPro suction cup mounted to the dash facing us with an audio cable I got off amazon

[@randc47]

Awesome video man! Out of curiosity, how long did that flight take in a 172?

[@PropGear]

Randy Carlson about 3.5

good shit boys. greetings from Barcelona

Adrià Javierre Ayy! Love Barcelona! Thanks

Ive flew on alaska 895. I believe their max is out of service.

[@Rick-yf2dw]

I'd say one of your better pieces of work sir.

[@rallyden]

Just don’t go to LAX for the sake of just doing it. It’s dangerous, challenging and expect a hefty fee before they let you take off again.

[@jeffdo9195]

Clear? Go vfr

[@PropGear]

Jeff Daugherty wanted to practice IFR in a SE and just makes it easier for ATC and there was a cloud layer forecasted

[@austinformedude]

Sometimes IFR is easier. Especially in a class Bravo. They have to take you if you are IFR...they can turn VFR away if busy.

[@jeffdo9195]

@@austinformedude true

[@PropGear]

Jeff Daugherty ya, there was a broken layer at 1400 so couldn’t go VFR and we’d likely get turned away flying VFR into a class B airport, besides IFR is way easier than VFR.

[@jeffdo9195]

@@PropGear yea but I personally hate all the routings or changes.

[@edmoore3910]

why a ramp fee?..another american ripoff for americans. flying is expensive enough.

[@TylerZ4358]

Ed Moore I don’t agree with ramp fees either. They don’t promote aviation.

[@molliesdad4702]

All is fine except for the crosstalk.........irritating.
