Flying my 58 year old airplane over the Sierra Nevada mountains at sunset!

[@alexwilcox1976]

Not only a stellar pilot, but a very patient babysitter. Whoa.

[@monteblackwell4652]

Tell me about it. That boy needs some major attention to function.

[@reyesben]

I like how you talk to yourself through all the checklist, even though you have passengers that don’t understand what you’re doing

[@scottnathan2912]

Even on Microsoft Flight sim it is like speaking a 2nd language. lol

[@MsLisaN]

As a new pilot, I love that you speak everything you are doing.

[@Boxer1250RT]

What a great trip! The facial impression of the rear passenger during turbulence was priceless :)

[@ScottVanArtsdalen]

Congrats on not strangling your passengers. And good job on ignoring them and concentrating on your checklist.

[@cjzzo]

Wow-Two things near and dear to me ?! I love the Sierra Mountains and I live within a few miles of Reid Hillview Airport. What a great weekend trip you had ! Keep at it ! 💪

[@mrdrivebytrucker]

Beautiful flight. I remember, as a kid, watching planes come over us while we in the north parking lot of Eastridge Shopping Center.

[@tp5642]

I’m the first NorCal controller! Nice job!

[@FlywithHayley]

no way that’s awesome! thanks for helping us get to Reid-Hillview 🤙🏼

[@6Sally5]

We used to live in Grass Valley where I flew out of Nevada County Airpark. Going over the mountains sure makes me homesick. I have flown down to RHV a few times as well. Love Los Gatos and Saratoga area! We are in Texas now…which is great, but I sure miss the mountains.

[@petertarantelli]

Fun flight Hayley! Your sister is so funny, nervously waving at the camera on the way there and falling asleep on the way back - perfect sign that she’s comfortable flying. And, she recognized and complimented you on your landing! Thanks for taking me along 🤗

[@stevencrow6935]

Or that white claw tall can she was sipping on takeoff finally got her🤔

[@kerrylloyd4215]

That was a very pleasant video to watch. It brought nothing but joy.

[@747FoSophie]

Thank you for sharing and bringing back some memories of my early days of flying in a small airplane.

[@ashikihsan1946]

Hi Hayley Herberg, I appreciate your magnificent flying in your 58 year old plane with your sister and friend to Sierra Nevada Mountains. You drove your plane so well Hayley even in the sunset. You are a skillful pilot. I love your videos

[@shawnweitekamp5738]

Your sister making The Sign of the Cross before takeoff made me smile. I enjoy your content and admire your piloting skills. Nice airplane and I’m very excited for you as you travel down that path of upgrading your instrument panel!

[@GuillaumeBaillargeon-pv2vs]

Good jobs with procedures & checki list! I'm doing my PPL training and seeing you enjoying the flight gives me more motivation. Thank you for sharing. G

[@D_Cali_Life]

Hayley is a Dream

[@philipmcbride1275]

Wonderful trip. A little bouncy to start. That's 60s song, whatever it's called, is such a good closing.

[@lvthunder89]

Great content, Haley! Thanks for sharing some of your flights and brief glimpses into your life! My son and daughter just graduated from UNR, and my daughter Jamison just signed a lease with her boyfriend Cutter for an apartment in Minden. I love seeing flights from the little Minden airport over Tahoe to the Bay Area. I have flight simmed it many times. We spend a couple weeks in Tahoe every summer for nearly 40 years, and my large family live in the Walnut Creek area. We’ll be together again up there next month! I’m glad I stumbled across your channel. You’re on a short list of pilots I follow, including SteveO of course 😎 Stay safe and keep up the good work ❤

[@chuckpowell391]

Great flight and beautiful scenery. Really enjoy watching you work through your checklist and flows.

[@ricklangley9482]

Great and fun flight and video Hayley! I love how you set the perfect example doing your checklists and keeping centered on the runway centerlines! Several years ago I had a fun visit at Minden and was able to thermal up from there in an Ask 21 glider until we could see Lake Tahoe over the mountain range. First a sliver of water and later the whole lake. Then entered wave and watched the altimeter wind up and felt no movement. Amazing. Like just sitting there! Would love to do that again!

[@davidmerwin7763]

Well done!

[@RonBrooks-x9f]

We’re getting ready for “Debby” here in Florida. Wish I were with you and your DEBI!!

[@timmartin6410]

Flying into KRHV...ah the memories. I learned how to fly out of RHV way, way back in 1972. Did my Commercial training at KSEE, in 1974.

[@mpetrino7330]

Haylley hi from Alberta, Canada. Very impressive piloting skills. Your Debonair is in beautiful condition, I can see how the previous yoke could be troublesome the replacements are a great improvement look awesome. Thanks for the flight over the Sierra Nevada's especially on such a stellar evening.

[@diamondd1234]

I think I just fell in love! ❤❤

[@kenmunn4421]

Hi Hayley , nice video, great job and a pleasure running into you at the fuel pump in Carson today. Keep up the good work. 😀

[@Blyyyth]

You have a real knack for crafting beautiful video's, Hayley. Music choices make your vids stand out. Please keep making these.

[@Resort_Fans]

Perfect pilotage. Dude in the right seat is your next student.

[@wallyzworld7108]

Great little flight and video. The way Kelsey's eyes popped from the wing dip, you need to take her up when the Sierra wave is really blowing. Grew up in Bishop and Dad owned a Cessna 172xp. We were returning from Porterville through Olancha Pass one day and basically got flipped, like being flushed down a toilet bowl. Once we broke out of the turbulence we stayed really low up the east side of the Owens Valley. Not a fun flight that day.

[@arnellegalon7759]

Pretty good size family, Hayley. Like a Pro with the take off and landing.

[@leorbuis9024]

Another great video, your editing skills are really coming along I think you are zeroing in on the perfect combination of flight instruction, scenery from the aircraft and the kind of fun that you can have as a general aviation pilot which hopefully will encourage more young kids to go out and start lessons. Thanks for taking the time to do these videos, I know it takes a lot of work but we all appreciate it. And finally I'll just say I'm mystified why you don't have more subscribers. I think if you keep at it though, and keep your videos at about the same length that they are now, and just keep doing what you're doing, at some point you'll probably see an explosion of subscribers. Thanks again.

[@FlywithHayley]

Thankyou for such kind words!! I really liked making this type of video- including a blend of both technical flying and the lifestyle general aviation can bring :) I'm glad you enjoyed it and looking forward to filming more like this.

[@clearpropcfi3744]

Learned to fly @KRHV in 1995. Back then, we could go over to KSJC and work the pattern when 30R/12L was a GA runway and there was still a large GA presence there. Different world now.

[@crikycrocky]

That was lovely. Hope your sis felt better about flying after her trip...

[@chixterhotbrown]

Love your videos - they are lovely and so relaxing! Thank you for making and sharing your flying journey 🤗

[@Belatu42]

Beautiful debonair! Looks well maintained and kept clean. Love the sunset reflections on the paint from the wingtip cam. It’s good form that you didn’t cut performing the checklists. Very professional. Keep making great videos!

[@gregmeadors9624]

You parked very near where I used to have my Grumman Cheetah parked and tied down. Was a very busy airport back in the ‘70’s and ‘80’s.

[@SmittyPilot]

Enjoy the weekend and thanks for sharing your flight

[@CharlesCrook-p3h]

Congratulations on Debbie. Love your videos!!

[@MarkMcLT]

As soon as I saw Kelsey smile, I thought that's gotta be her sister. Strong resemblance. :)

[@michaelweiser6887]

Very nice! Makes me nostalgic for my Beech Musketeer.😢

[@pierreredmond]

1. For flight following out of KMEV, try Oakland Center 127.95. 2. Next upgrade: shoulder straps.

[@FlywithHayley]

I did actually just install them! Checkout the newer videos got the BAS :)

[@georgehasler142]

Haley thanks for sharing your nice flight with us

[@dontbanmebrodontbanme5403]

[@chrislovett6120]

What a gorgeous flight. Keep the content coming please 😎

[@CalFunInSun]

Such awesome mountain views I only wish those views were unobstructed…. So many videos like yours focus on cockpit angles and I WISH for a GoPro looking down and forward paying full tribute to the beautiful mountain ranges below! If you include that I’ll like and subscribe 1000 times over..how abOUT it??!?? Thank you thank you thank you!!!

[@toothpickproductions1283]

Always enjoy your vids... but really liked this one as I live a few miles away (in the foothills) from Reid Hillview. I usually get lots of the aircraft flying over my place (bordering Alum Rock Park) as they head North/NE from Reid Hillview. Fun stuff!!! Boy, 45 min flight definitely Beats my 4 hour drive to get from SJ to Reno!!! haha

[@cq7415]

Hayley…..I love your lifestyle and where you live and also your beautiful Bonanza. I am envious. Fly up to beautiful Joseph, Oregon and see us. Thanks for sharing.

[@patrickheavirland3599]

Good morning from Minnesota! Great episode! Fun trip!

[@Zzrdemon6633]

Nice hat on your sister! Especially from the wing view, , Just appeared out of nowhere😂😂😂 No yoke on the sic side? When you do the ferry flights from london, I'm 40 min from there, we don't have scenery like this up here!

[@bigolemike33]

Wonderful flight Hayley and a nice plane to be almost old as me.

[@clarencewiles963]

Nice to ride around with you. Thanks for sharing. Thumbs up 👍

[@FougaFrancois]

Try Hollister airport if you go south bay, crossing runway make sure you can land in case of high winds.

[@DBartWest]

Hi Hayley. I live in Saratoga Springs development off Stephanie Way just north of the airport. Wave as you fly by sometime. Video just came up and also lived and worked in San Jose around the Reid-Hillview airport years ago. Nice evening flight.

[@petesheppard1709]

Good grief. Everything about this video is beautiful.

[@brianperry4754]

Need the Rosen Visor Kit and a pair of Raycraft headsets for your passengers!!!

[@jborin1]

Nice flight Hayley, and good job reassuring the “rowdy crew”! That was a butter landing. The throwover yoke is a great mod to Debi. I can see how the bar was blocking part of your console. Is this Debi’s original yoke or did you have to source the part? Congrats on your first night landing. It’s great to see you have some fun exploring in your own plane.

[@FlywithHayley]

Thankyou!! I had to source the part- the last owner unfortunately did not hold onto it

[@andoal4610]

Very well done...Love it😎

[@montiraruba2831]

We used to fly out of Reed Hill View all the time. We were members of the Flying Club and got our pilot license there. Flying over the shopping mall on Final is always a heart beat skipper.

[@billryland6199]

When I was in the Air Force in 1972 I took flying lessons at Reid-Hillview. One of the guys I worked with almost landed on the roof of the shopping mall by using full flaps on final.

Since when has General Aviation ever been affordable? lol

[@RLDenham]

​@@fussa6013sadly ga used to he very affordable if you made it a priority

[@jmizzonini]

@@fussa6013 used to be. The price of a new Cessna 172 was $12,500 in 1970, which In 2021 dollars the 1970 sticker would equate to about $85,000. You're not getting a new off the line certified GA plane for $85k in modern day

I need to look into this! I believe it's because my Debi's audio is being recorded like that for some reason. Will try and get it balanced

[@marcelopacheco2479]

Hi Hayley ! What song do you use as outro ? I just love it and can't find it. Is it an instrumental dancing in the moonlight ?

Driving in the left lane while not passing. Ultimate driving pet peeve.

[@airportsmanchester]

Great content .Best yet

[@Boscopcoletrain11]

It’s not about checklists or FARs, it’s about common sense and experience. Alcohol and airplanes never mix well. Your job is to mitigate risk and doing that can sometimes be unpopular. The hardest part of a pilot’s job is saying the word “no.”

[@artrogers3985]

Very good video. Nice airplane 🎸

[@motoole3200]

Aerodynamic lifestyle. How do you mange time and expenses? What do you focus on when you are not in the Air flying?

Okay so it's beginning to make sense to me now.

[@kentuckybowl-o-sticks]

If you need a professional photographer to accompany you, I'm willing and eager to learn. As an added bonus, the last time I had a yoke or stick in my hands was probably 50 years ago, but I have a good memory... though for most of my "hours" I was too small to reach the rudder pedals 🙂
