Is it just me; I'd like to see a little more video of his bride at the sacrifice of a little of the aviation. Love those amazing twin engines!

[@rwbready]

The electronic stabilization on the cameras allow us to see the rock and roll of the airplane in turbulence. Adds an element of realism to the video that feels right. Good job.

[@MrStunnd]

Bobby your videos are always so simple but well done. No over the top editing, crazy transitions or overpowering music. Just simple flying. All these videos are great ... please keep them up !

[@texascowboy3918]

I'm from Lufkin can't believe he was at that little airport

[@Guzmyster]

Great work - very well done indeed. So gentle with eachother in a stressful situation of knowing where to go.

[@autophile525i]

I can't get over how CLEAN that panel is!

[@MrGoldman9]

I agree with you so clean panel no complicated EFIS But unfortunately I didn’t like how he entered the Bas leg till intercept the runway 50 feet with wing down ....was lucky not having a wind-shear On that level with the bank very very hard to recover in a low-level

[@kevinmoore4887]

@@MrGoldman9 I was a passenger on Britten Trilander, the pilot being trained, was going to land on the Taxiway at Cancun. At the last moment the trainer noticed and yelled, Right, right. We made a big last minute S turn. I was laughing, the woman behind us was saying Hail Marys.

[@MrZrryan2]

@@MrGoldman9 Someday, maybe, you will fly into Oshkosh. Then you will know... ATC calls base turn. ATC calls final turn. ATC tells you which colored dot to land on. That base leg was NOT the pilot's choice. You do what ATC says or you go away and fly someplace else. This guy did a fine job.

[@mikhailhunter5277]

@@MrZrryan2 i agree, the ATC was the one that called that and he followed instruction like a pro. People are just critical.

[@tanneradams1941]

Glad you got to fly with Mr. Dunn. He’s a great mentor and pilot.

[@Repented008]

He looks like a stocky Kevin Costner. Haha!

[@jonathanramsey7910]

Nice job documenting the arrival procedure! Just like I remember it!

[@johnhowell9869]

Brings back memories, I flew in there in 93 and 95 from LA with a Piper PA-28.

[@irench]

Dang dude, I haven't seen Oshkosh in near a decade. Then your pilot, sir that's a landing like a leaf. Arresting decent in the turn and set it down in that crosswind. Superior flying skills there.

[@deadstick8624]

Very impressed with Mark. I really enjoyed this video -- Liked, Subscribed and hit the bell. I grew up in that area of Wisconsin, and got all my ratings there -- been a pilot for 45 years, and was a C-141 Flight Engineer, 35 years ago.

[@dwaynelightbourn5786]

This young man is an excellent pilot and this is a great accomplishment, I really wish I could have had that opportunity to fly around the world at his age when I was young. congratulations and keep up the great work your doing, you really inspire me to still get into flying.

[@tinmisuun]

Beechcraft has some cool landing gear. Love watching them move.

[@gregnettles3677]

I can’t get over how beautiful that back seat is😁😁

[@roberttperez1153]

No kidding! He's one lucky guy! Made me forget the whole plane flight trip.

[@danielmcnaughton8240]

Outstanding video. Really felt like I was flying into Oshkosh. Thank you.

[@robertwhite1265]

Flying ag aircraft is the absolute most fun you can have with your clothes on! Of course I was flying in Manitoba and Ontario, both are ideal. I was involved in a number of projects in addition to spraying crops. I did a gig as part of a formation spray operation going after spruce budworm that, consisted of two CE-172 providing navigation and lead over the trackless forest and we were in a formation of three CE Ag Trucks, call sign.....Goldiocks and the Three Bears. In addition to being fun flying and it paid well and gave me the freedom to pursue a long satisfying career in aviation.

[@SteveD328]

I landed a Challenger 300 there during the 2011 airshow. Fortunately, the field was IFR when we got there, so it was a piece of cake, not much traffic to deal with. The ground guys directed us to the wrong FBO, and no one had a tow bar that would fit a 300, so we had about 20 people pushing the jet back, include the rich guy we had on board and most of his family. About 10 minutes after we landed, an F-16 went off the end of the runway. Great video Bobby!!

[@steveo1kinevo]

From your makeshift GoPro shades I see you have the same overheat shutdown problem as I also enjoy.

[@FlyingDoodles]

Haha yeah. How are you solving the problem?

[@MrTurnone]

One of my all time favorite civilian planes, loved them since I was a kid.

[@digitalranger4259]

Thank you! I've been wanting to see the Oshkosh approach for some time.

[@danielchadwell6992]

Planes are cool, Osh Kosh is awesome but she's making this pretty

[@andrewmichalak5471]

Hey from Annapolis! Great video Bobby, camera angles were good. Enjoy the show and looking forward to vids to follow... -Andrew & Charle Dog...woof!

[@teddyballgame4823]

Cool plane and it looks like a lot of room in the cabin.

[@rockysouthflorida1707]

Bobby Doodle has his beard growing like a uncontrolled chia pet! Give him another few months and he will be a unofficial member of ZZ TOP! Blue skies!

[@CrzyMFT]

Bobby Doodle, LOL - I like that. Surprised it didn't catch on a few years ago.

[@samualwhittemore228]

Thumbs up for Bobby's beared!

[@Hucfinn-zz8dl]

Loved the approach to the runway ! Laura was right, " Coming in Hot " !!! Thanks for another great video, Bobby ! Can't hardly wait to see lots of planes at the fly - in !!!

[@FilmandVideoFun]

Darn, had to leave the air show and head back to Madison earlier on Thursday. Appreciate the video. Fans, you need a few days to really see everything. Take time to chat and learn here. So many cherished planes, military and restoration stories! Lots more for all ages.

[@dabneyoffermein595]

wow, he was an IFR pilot, how cool...dawn is beautiful.

[@petersnelling9047]

Great to meet you and Laura near the plaza this afternoon and sorry we couldn’t catch up later! We are long time fans of both channels and will be watching the rest of your Osh Kosh story. Safe travels... Peter

[@Gabucks1]

Ag flight is amazing!!! You should totally do a ride along!

[@cree8k]

Those were some terrific video shots! Gave us a real good view of what it's like to land at Osh Kosh, thanks!👍😆

[@gregorygig1495]

I loved this video. I've worked in this kind of planes. They are sky horses!!

[@peachtrees27]

Nice landing seriously. I know how nerve-wracking an Airventure landing can be.

[@joeziegler9054]

I subbed! I had no clue this channel existed until I was watching live Osh Kosh footage!! Wow!!

[@blackpowdermaniacshooter]

Bucket List for sure. I'm going to get up there someday! Thanks for sharing........

[@29rosslyn]

I’ve been watching EAA cams of all the action this week. So great to see it from the cockpit vantage point. Great approach & landing Mark, a real professional! Laura is beautiful as always! Looking forward to your vlogs from Oshkosh 2019.

[@ChaseEverySecond]

Love the map graphic you use in the video of your flight plan.

[@Kelly-jc3jc]

That was interesting... They have those arrivals dialed in, very cool.

[@zapdawg]

Loved it. Great job at showing how it is done.

[@randycalkins6361]

It's cool that you stopped in Monroe for fuel. My Dad has his Kitfox and my brother has a Piper Tri-Pacer just east of Monroe at the Brodhead airport. Welcome to Wisconsin. I live in Janesville,Wisconsin. We have a nice airport here too with a restaurant (Bessie's).

[@thomassawyer8870]

I have enjoyed all your videos both sailing and flying. Do you think you’ll ever get your medical clearance back?

[@nickb193]

that landing would have been sooo cool to see from the outside

[@jetfuelboy]

Awesome episode, great to see so many outside and inside views. Reminded me of how much you need to be on the ball coming into Oshkosh. Hope you guys have a fantastic Air Venture 2019.

[@bobstienke178]

Awesome arrival! Great job gentlemen and Laura. Teamwork at its best! Enjoy your stay!

Sorry I missed you. I spent 2 weeks there this year again. I am glad you made it and I hope you all had a good time.

[@johnmajane3731]

We tried to go up Saturday, had issues with the plane and drove. You were lucky you got in, they kept the field closed for two days and only limited parking starting on Monday. Nice job flying in!

Fantastic video experience of OshKosh approach during EAA. Thanks Bobby! I'm practically in the back yard but unfortunately won't be able to make it to your Meet and Greet. Enjoy the show and looking forward to your Oshkosh video next.

That pilot Mark is great... cool video.

[@Hucfinn-zz8dl]

WOW !!! What a beautiful sunrise !!!

[@loveaodai100]

I loved that landing. The pilot is now certified to land at Paro Airport in Bhutan where the Himalayan terrain forces the pilots to come in at such a hard turn on landing.

This is a good one Bobby. Lot’s of stick time shows up. Oshkosh on my bucket list.

I've been following some other flyers going to Oshkosh, mostly Kitfox types, and the ATC crews really do a fantastic job of getting everyone in line and landed safely! You kids should be having some wonderful time over the next few days! Laura, as always looks stunning!

[@MotorjockMike]

Glad to see Bobby take over the right seat for the flight into OshKosh. Two pilots seem to be needed (from a non-pilot).

[@brandongregory79]

I was just there Sunday. My kids really enjoyed it. Great video!

You got your medical back and are flying again!! Good for you. I follow your sailing doodles channel, also. I'm a sailor and a pilot, also!

After watching this V-log I think if I fly to Osh Kosh next year, I think I will stop short and stay at a nearby airport. Crazy

Same here. The "Mooney itch" is overwhelming.

[@ghost307]

Osh Kosh?? I don't know where that is. Is it anywhere near Oshkosh??

[@blackbirdwisconsin]

I took it as the airport abbreviation for Oshkosh. Osh or officially kosh. I never realized it spells Oshkosh spelling when separated makes the identifier.

[@tranquilitybase6417]

I don’t fly or sail, but it sure is fun living vicariously. If you ever decide to do RV doodles, then I’ll join you somewhere on the road. :)

Shoulder harness is only useful if you crash, so it should be worn for takeoff/landing.

[@shawnengstrom3906]

Flew in once on an IFR and it was a piece of cake. Tried to go IFR out and after 1.5 hours on the ground engines running decided to cancel and go VFR out. We were off the ground in 15 minutes. Not sure if procedures changed making that not work anymore.

[@dickjohnson4268]

WHITE SUN GLASSES?? The ONLY white sun glasses approved by Beech is the ones that have the Beech logo screened onto the lenses. Along with the Beechcraft outback hat. I picked up both items at the 350 GTI display at Slum'n Fun several years back. I asked the salesman why our 350's a/c was so pathetic as opposed to the 1900-D supercooler freezer. To make me feel better, he have me a bunch of freebies. The 'Sumglazzes' can't be used while flying, driving, walking since you can't see through the screens on the lenses. You CAN, however, use them for drinking.

Flying in a plane older than you, like most B-52 crews. Good video.

[@rjaquaponics9266]

I live 25 minutes from Oshkosh and have been to the EAA numerous times visiting the flight line etc... But, our favorite way to watch the airshows is from the lake! Everything flies low and fast over the lake. Next year do a Sailing Doodles and watch to airshows from the lake! It's awesome! Also, right up the road in Green Bay is the Tail Ships event you might be interested in. facebook.com/tallshipswi/?eid=ARAAZgLs921j3Ss3vigb6B-EiA_si7bdH8InpJxR3-kJV4kKVVZWTA4heqAiLxRwD8JQX1DxFqj9mV8l Rj
