Cessna 172 Flight Toronto To Arkansas Part 2 - Bad Weather All The Way!

[@stephendoherty1275]

So much time, money and work went into that plane. I'm so glad you're able to put hours on it. Too many folks get theirs fixed up but never use it.

[@oreally8605]

Time for Glen & Jules to fly!!

[@hockeytops]

My wife and I sat out a storm system between Providence, RI and our home drome of Islip, Long Island for 5 hours last weekend. We discovered that the dollar store had 300 piece puzzles. That's the perfect number of pieces for 1 storm's time.

[@driftspecs13]

That's some damn good ADM, Glen. You diverted when you needed to and didn't take any unnecessary risks. Get-there-itis has claimed many pilots.

[@vanallen9453]

..just watched your great interview on.. In The Hangar..tuned right in..and am now a new subscriber..and wow..what an amazing video..with all your great skills..and all these really clear.. and very sharp.. cameras..so please..keep em coming..

[@GlensHangar]

Welcome aboard!

[@thewaterengine]

Canadian neighbors thanks for sharing and wishing you all the in journey through states. Great way enjoy all the upgrades.

[@miketomas8564]

Glenn, Jules: I usually see both of you in the Kitchen! What a pleasure to see you out of it for the first time! If you haven't yet; Safe Travels Home.

[@markarnett6411]

I really enjoyed watching this video as I did with all of the previous ones. Watching your series on the renovation of "MVU" reminded me of watching old episodes of "This Old House" back in the 80's as opposed to, "let's renovate this house in a 1 hour episode". You detailed the process all of the way. I hope you continue sharing your adventures with C-FMVU

[@slugore]

I could feel all the stress melting away, even in myself, as I saw your shots of the cabin. Glad you had a good week. Thanks for the vids.

[@Dobbin1010]

Fun watching you two on your vacation. We are road-tripping across from Michigan to Oregon and I like your mode of transportation after driving forever across Montana.

[@WingsOverTO]

Great video and great decision making, Glen!

[@GlensHangar]

Sometimes you just have to enjoy what ever comes your way. Met some great people, saw some great things, ate some incredible food. All things we would have missed if the weather was clear.

[@60sSam]

I am so used to seeing the Ozarks from ground level that seeing them from the air is just flat out strange. Thanks for sharing Glen.

[@JohnUllrey]

Thanks for taking us along with you. I really enjoy it.

[@MrDdaland]

The weather in the Midwest has been really squirrelly this summer, can't recall ever having a wetter August - looks like you saw a fair amount of it flying in

[@pamelacrowell2007]

Loved the crazy trip! Always better safe than sorry! It's great meeting good people along the way.

[@billclisham8668]

Glad you two had a good time, it's always nice to get away for a few days and relax. Thanks for taking us along on the flight!

[@joeyhardin1288]

If I had of known you were in Louisville (Lousyville), the wife and I would have come up and took you out to a great fish place, great fried oysters. Thank you. God Bless and stay warm.

[@sammieriley8582]

I was flying in and out of Youngstown a whole bunch in August!

[@timguffey7907]

Hey Glenn, Those landings are getting smooth. Love all your content. Thanks for all you do.

[@Helmetfires]

Also stopped at H88 ona trip from OH to TX. Also had a nice crosswind😂. Cool flight!

[@Gratussi]

Nice! If you haven't already, the next time you're in NE Arkansas, definitely check out the Crystal Bridges Museum in Bentonville.

[@soflaav8r]

Nice landing there in Marion.

[@watashiandroid8314]

It looked like you really rolled it on at Marion, one of those which you only hear, not feel!

[@lisamoore6804]

I hope Ohio treated you well, I used to be an Ohioan. Oh how I love all of the trees and how green it is there. SE South Dakota had been pretty darn dry lately.

[@bobfarley2969]

if you ever do a layover in Sikeston Mo. They have transportation to Lambert's Cafe. Great food. Home of the hand thrown rolls.

[@CrossPlatforming]

You landed at an airport about 2 miles from my house. You probably flew right over us either on approach or takeoff.

[@vdubboy85225]

You're video's always warm my heart ❤

[@garyharper2992]

We've eaten at Roy's Diner that is between the airport and Athens, Ohio. Great food.

[@michaellyon9220]

Thank God you’re not stuck at some miserable commercial airport. Definitely a blessing to have your own plane that’s for sure.

[@richardmassoth8237]

I would consider you to be in Northwestern Arkansas, nearer to Springfield Missouri than Memphis Tennessee in Northeastern Arkansas. But, Mammoth Springs is beautiful, and I'm so glad that you found it to be relaxing and well worth the trip. Even if "travel by air" takes time...

[@buzz5722]

Fun! Congrats!!!

[@noelwade]

@Glen - 4:20 Besides weather, you're learning that no matter where you go there's always a Cirrus on long straight-in final! 😛

[@GlensHangar]

Always - I don't think they know what the circuit pattern is. Most of them just get close and pull the chute anyway.

[@noelwade]

@@GlensHangar - We should coin a new term for that: CirruSTOL

[@bruschi8148]

Man! Some absolute greasers!!! Very impressed Glen.. Come to cape cod some day🙂

[@KevinBingham]

I'm sorry our Kansas (KC) weather swept across the plains into Arkansas and Illinois. Glad you finally made it safely.

[@bartofilms]

What a great adventure! Congrats.

[@joshuaevans5983]

Looks like you passed over my hometown during your flight from Youngstown to Ohio University. Next time you’re flying that direction, maybe consider stopping at Carroll County Airport. It’s a nice little airport with a good restaurant. Carrollton isn’t big, but it does have some hotels, if needed.

[@quarlow1215]

I love the vagabond lifestyle of being a private pilot. If the weather sucks where you are headed just go over there for now. You'll get there eventually.

[@kazflight]

Great job on those landings!

[@MongoosePreservationSociety]

I used tk canoe the spring river as a teenager!!!!!!

[@robwalker3826]

Ohio University is my alma mater. Wish you had a chance to go into Athens but the airport is pretty far from Uptown Athens. The town is Albany.

[@aeroringordmngr8739]

Great landing at Clark County. Butter KAPF

[@gmart225]

Fly to the Hudson Bay next! Every time I fly to the US from Europe I am fascinated by the wild wild expanse of northern Canada.

[@GlensHangar]

I've been working on a plan for that - the biggest problem is fuel. A lot of the airports in the far North don't have 100LL; or if they do it's super expensive and in 45 gallon drums delivered by ice road in the winter. So route planning is a huge task.

[@gmart225]

@@GlensHangar oh wow - never thought of this. Thanks for the insight!

[@renattaashley9420]

Crap you were at Clark Co Airport. I'm only 30 mins from that.

[@mts982]

you need overlay with speed/altitude/direction on screen.

[@mts982]

what top speed you usually going?

[@RumblestripDotNet]

Is that a fan or a heat sink on the back of the GoPro on the glareshield?

[@GlensHangar]

A fan - battery powered with a usb backup. Since staring to use that, the GoPro on the glare-shield doesn't overheat anymore.

[@adamfurrer]

Do you have to or choose to wear sunscreen when you fly? Also, my wife would like to know what kind of sunglasses Julie wears

[@GlensHangar]

No real need for sunscreen - the glass in the plane is treated for UV. Julie is wearing a pair of 'Flying Eyes' style: 'Noctua'

[@gordthompson4664]

Sounds like it's not uncommon for American universities to have their own airport - in Ohio, at least. Kent State has one, too (1G3). Who knew?

[@coreymcdonald7745]

The Youngstown Departure controller asked you to “verify climbing out of 1,600.” I think you missed that.

[@GlensHangar]

Generally accepted here is to acknowledge with your callsign - Or - correct with actual altitude. I guess that's a difference between ATC? There are a few differences.

[@coreymcdonald7745]

@@GlensHangar interesting. I’ve always heard other KZbin pilots say “altitude checks” or “correct” or something…

[@GlensHangar]

Mostly American pilots? I also fly in really busy airspace and ATC likes you to keep radio comms 'lean'.

[@coreymcdonald7745]

@@GlensHangar yes. Aviation101 and BaronPilot are 2 examples

[@rebeccahartsfield9986]

I’m curious how intimidating is it landing at these small airfields? I’m assuming you’ve never taken off or landed at them before. I know most aren’t highly trafficked but I still think it may be a little anxious not knowing these airports.

[@GlensHangar]

After a while it's just second nature. They all have the same standard procedures for approaches and circuits. You just have to keep your head on a swivel looking for the pilots who lack the 'skill' to follow procedure and make radio calls.

[@rickkennerly2379]

Audio pretty buzzy this time
