@Hello Cappy how are you doing?

My word, that's got to be the smoothest landing ever, Greg. No jolt or noise on the video at all. Thanks for sharing, Sir.

[@gregmink]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@lydiaanderson7752]

@Hello John how are you doing?

[@stevemj25]

I like how you added "Groundspeed" to the airspeed indicator. Even after all of your explanations in video after video, were there still a bunch of people complaining that you were "breaking" the speed limit?

[@Spray-N-Pray]

That was my assumption as well. A lot of armchair pilots trying to catch Greg doing something wrong. It's silly he even felt like he had to mention it, but we understand why.

[@vanallen9453]

Such a professional pilot. 😎. Absolutely love the additional landing shot with the shadow.

[@SmittySmithsonite]

Amazing landing! Didn't even make a sound! Loved watching the shadow move across the ground, too - that was great! Didn't take long for that windshield to clear out once the throttle was firewalled! It was clear, and you were deep into the triple-digits before I even realized it. Always great to watch! Speaking of boating, back when my dad retired, he picked up a Sea Fox center console. The very first time he, my brother, and I headed out into Cape Cod Bay, it was as smooth as a mill pond! I've lived here my entire life and had never seen the bay that calm before. Didn't think it was possible up until then! What an amazing first outing! Could see dolphins everywhere - they were running on both sides of the bow as we were under way! Wish I had something better than a flip phone in those days, but still managed to get some amazing pictures. I'll never forget that. Anyway, thanks for another great vid, as usual, Greg!

[@jgray37000]

Greg, thanks SO much for taking the time to give us these videos! They one so many memories for me, evoking a "lost" world I came to love. I flew co-pilot on a Lear 24 back in the 70s, when you didn't need to be Typed yet. As a woman, I was very useful because I could get so much out of ATC...straight-in approaches, higher FLs, etc. (Why don't you ever ask for higher altitudes??) I was always awed watching the terminator as we flew north, or climbing out fast enough at sunset to make the sun "rise" again, or watching our "glory" surround our shadow on a cloud deck below. It is a beautiful world up there!

[@Moonraker11]

Love the ground speed annotation!

[@davew5383]

I like your airplane, because it seems like the perfect jet for a retired fighter pilot, with it appearing very sleek and maneuverable and having room you need to carry your friends and family comfortably👍 btw I didn't feel the landing either😉 I enjoyed the flight very much and I'm glad that I was able to hitch a ride🛩🙂

[@lydiaanderson7752]

Hey, Greg! I like the new GS indicator on the lower righthand corner of the screen. Very cool! Flawlessl flight and landing too, I might add!

At the time he retired he had flown everything the AF had . Everybody enjoyed flying with him. Until next time , thanks for sharing.

[@jeffm1572]

Greg, I'm still loving all of your videos & all that you do for us on here. I must say, though, that would have to be the most AWESOME landing I've ever seen! I wish I was there with you, to "not" feel the wheels touch! I had a big grin from ear to ear. (Not that I don't smile from your videos anyway) Awesome! Clear blue skies & safe flights, my friend!

[@1492tomato]

These killer landings that Greg nails reminds me of a commercial flight years ago. We were coming into Atlanta on an L1011 (heavy) and we hit the runway so hard it knocked open the overhead bins. The pilot immediately came on the com and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, that perfect landing was brought to you by our co-pilot, Mr. ____." The cabin roared with laughter.

Now that was 🧈! 👍🏼👨🏻‍✈️

[@Glofilter]

Nice video. I'm curious about your thoughts towards the demise of Lear Jet. You fly a jet that was discontinued even though it was superior in many ways to jets that are in production today, and having flown in a Lear 31, I believe the Lear is superior in several ways to some of its rivals (the ability to cruise at FL500 westbound, above the jet stream comes to mind). I think one of its downfalls was the lack of a single pilot option. It's always sad to see a pioneer fall by the wayside.

[@DeonMitton]

Very cool - such great views of Naples, and the coastline! Thanks for sharing

[@johnmasters3851]

Jet guys have to deal with morning dew as well, yesterday morning it played hell with me in the 172

[@copflyer6569]

Thanks for a great ride this morning Greg. I’m jealous that you are going out in your boat. It’s been raining here in Slidell for the past couple of days and they’re predicting temps in the 20’s Monday! When we lived in southeastern Mass, my wife and I would vacation in Sarasota in a condo right on the beach. The beaches are beautiful. That landing on Naples 05 was amazing! Smooth as Ice on Ice! Fair winds and following seas my friend!

[@lachlanmcmahon6070]

Wow very short flight

[@russellshermer8114]

the coolest thing happened to me today. I flew to Florida from PA as part of my commercial training...met my wife and kids down there for a little vacation. On my way back from Florida this morning, who do I hear talking to Jax approach....390GM. I always thought it would be cool to share the airspace. I gave a little P1D nod on the radio and got an “ohhhh yeah” back. You are one of my inspirations in flying and I look up to you and love your story and channel. So cool! Flying to Chicago in a couple of weeks..would loooove to swing by Indy Exec on my way over and see 390GM first hand.

That was a sweet ride and perfect landing, Greg. For the dew-covered windshield, how about a squeegee with a telescoping handle? I use mine for house windows - it extends to 12 feet and retracts to 6 feet. Maybe you could stow it in your luggage compartment?

[@hxhdfjifzirstc894]

I feel like I might just buy a small ladder and do it right. If I had a jet, that is. Clean windows would be nice.

@@gregmink Let me explain, how I came to post that comment, then you will understand better. I was watching your landing, casually, as I always do. You said - "Oh! My Goodness" I suddenly got focused I thought - "Did the plane touch down?" Then, you said - "Did you feel that?" I thought - "I did not feel a thing" You said - "Neither did I" It was like a conversation that I was making with a video recording in real time. You see, when you said "Oh! My Goodness" that could have been anything from where I was sitting at the comfort of my home, since, I do not experience the real landing. It could have been a bird flying along with you, or an alligator waiting in the middle of the landing platform etc. But, immediately, I got focused on the shaking of the camera, which did not happen. So, I had to write a comment after that. Thank you, for that experience.
