I kinda of like planes, "pulled into it" from interest in airliner accident investigations. Then via FS2020 and VR got to "experience" fancy planes cockpits like Diamond twin. WOW. These modern planes of this size and down (perhaps a bit of consumer market?) are incredible.

Sweet plane! If I had $4.5 mil burning a hole in my pocket (and a pilot's license) I'd totally get one. For now, I'll have to settle for the 930 in MSFS.

[@FinkelBlog]

Really appreciated how you took the time to talk through the various features of the instrument panel, and the settings you made throughout the flight. Also glad that you did an instrument approach despite being VFR: usually a bit more interesting than the visual, IMHO!

[@davidmmuench]

Gorgeous aircraft! I like how you do a close-up of the instruments as you're selecting them. As a non-pilot I find it very interesting!

[@iljaklimenkov1022]

You know, I really like it when you show the various buttons up close and their functions showing and including how everything works, it's really useful! Thank you very much.

[@pedrorego940]

Back in Black! (cue music) And the engine shutdown sound...oooffff made my day. Way to go crew, happy landings!

[@YouNumba1]

Thank you, a great video. I love your new focus on checklist discipline (this is professional flying rather than "fast hands fun"); what a gorgeous plane! Good crew coordination too; a useful video for pilots moving into professional aviation.

[@repairfreak]

Beautiful plane, what a wonderful thing it must be to pilot such a plane. It never ceases to amaze me how many switches, levers, controls and stuff one must be familiar with and understand. The auto pilot function and how effortlessly the program of you make it appear. I’ve had my iPhone 6s for years now and I’m still learning new things about it, lol. Thanks for the video, it was a very enjoyable watch being onboard Captain 😎👍.

940 is pretty sweet but still something about the 850 I still like alot more. I think it's a mix of new and old technology, the half and half panel in the 850. That is how our Cherokee 6/260 is set up and I like being able to do my scan with the 6 pack and then double checking everything with the glass panel. Great job as always.

[@danielforde-pogson]

[@trangia12]

Thanks for sharing this video. It really shows how hard it is to be an ATC and a pilot.

[@flyingnut3752]

It is not hard to be a pilot, if you have enough coordination to ride a bicycle, loves basic math and science, you can learn to fly an aeroplane. You must keep in mind, he is flying an advanced turbo prop in busy airspace. When you start flying, you will be in a 2 seat piston with very simple instruments and controls. From there on you gain experience and as you become more familiar with aviation you will be ready to upgrade to larger and faster aircraft and busier airspace, you have to crawl before you walk. What keeps you alive though, depends on how you approach aviation, your attitude and personality. You also need to be medical fit.

[@emmetts1899]

What a cool looking aircraft,it looks like a sports car.

[@leaveorlibertyfishing7670]

[@breakthrough99]

[@cuprum166]

SteveO this plane is incredible, in the front top center of the instrument panel it has a red button for safe landing in case the pilot has a medical emergency and goes unconscious. Don't remember what it's called, but the passengers can push it and it will do all that is required to land you at the closest airport, it will even do radio calls for you. Unbelievable and Outstanding!!

[@patrickhenry4675]

Very nice. Good team work between both pilots dividing up the work. Smooth work.

[@glennpeacock3939]

Hey Steveo, I’m not a pilot but I’m a huge fan of aviation. A few weeks ago we were at a wedding in Camarillo California. The wife and I decided to have breakfast at the Camarillo airport and watch the plans come and go. As luck would have it, the airport was socked in with fog. No traffic whatsoever ever. All of a sudden, just above the runway a TBM breaks out and lands! What a sight. The plane pulled right up to the little cafe. I had no idea those TBM’s were so loud! The pilot shut her down and ran into a little office next to the restaurant. Within 5 minutes the pilot returned carrying a large pizza! He jumped in and away they went. The entire cafe loved watching him pull up and leave. I thought about asking him if I could start her up. After staying in a Holiday Inn that night and watching all your videos, I felt I could pull it off. Alas I thought better of that. Keep up the good work!
