Chicago Midway Departure to Indy-Ground Delay turns into FAQ session

[@tyrease5711]

As an aspiring older college student trying to become a pilot I wish I had the money to support you as well as be entered into the drawing. You give such great leadership and love. Thank you for all the knowledge you give on this channel. Great to have people as yourself in this industry. Thank you

[@georgegagnon4566]

Another great video. As a result of your videos, Stevo1's, baron pilot, and 310 pilot, i jumped back into the cockpit, took a few lessons, passed my BFR and flew solo this week working on pattern work anf T&G's. Now on to instrument rating.

[@Skylane_Pilot]

George Gagnon great to have you back, what was the BFR like?

[@skywalkeraviation9669]

Good to hear, sir.

[@gregmink]

George Gagnon so glad to hear!

[@georgegagnon4566]

@@Skylane_Pilot after being out of the cockpit since 1972 I had no idea what to expect but with over 3000 hours on flight sim I believe it kept me aware of flight principals whereas on my first flight with instructor he let me do it all. take off , landing , full stop, short field take off , stalls(all) slow flight, emergency procedure and review of airspace ,in 4 hours he was convince I should be allowed to have full private pilot privileges. so this past Wednesday, I got in , on my own , and did t&G's and man it was like I never left. I'm so excited and I give credit to all these aviation videos that helped me along. Now it's on to gaining proficiency, then check ride in C-172 and start instrument. I just might start my own you tube and document the training. No promises. These guys are good at making videos. Thanks for the comment. since 1950 George

[@SmittySmithsonite]

@@georgegagnon4566 - CONGRATULATIONS! That is great!! 👍🍻👍

[@EagleGolden4444]

You know what's really cool? With every P1D video posted, I get to ride, learn and thoroughly enjoy the "perfect seat"!! As a result, my confidence level in aviation has increased tremendously. I hope others have experienced the same.

[@TerryKrysak]

One of your best videos, you are a very good teacher, nice to see Sam get some flying time on the approach, well done. Thanks for the info on Flightradar24. I live about a mile from YVR, so paused the video and logged on to Flightradar, checked it out, and there was a Lufthansa Airbus lining up on runway 08R, and after it took off, I looked out my window, and there she was climbing out, too cool....

[@michae8jackson378]

Never a more true statement Greg! My dad was an AF fighter pilot, it’s where my flying drive started! Nothing made him more proud than when I got my license, after a biz career, and went to airlines! My brother was a surgeon and is now a Captain for Delta! He thought no kid would be a pilot and now 2! Sadly he passed a few years ago, but what a joy and dream to fly w him!

[@paulharrison7242]

You could have no idea how energised you make me feel to get back in the air. I will never forget my first solo, and you allowing Sam to fly it on down impressed me. Thank you.

[@prestonmiller9552]

Always love seeing the younger generation getting some encouragement in aviation. Thanks for all you do Greg. Always great flying with you.

[@brianb5594]

Great FAQ session. I think you covered most of it on other flights but great refresher Greg! Thanks as always for taking us all along!

[@paterpull]

This reminded me of the feeling I would always get when rolling out after a landing. A great feeling of joy and accomplishment. Flying is so amazing.

[@robgreene1776]

Good on ya Greg, allowing Sam to hand fly the approach....Thanks for the ride along !

[@jeremymendoza4394]

Well i'm getting nothing done at work. Thanks P1D lol. PS that's one heck of a delay...felt bad for the rampie.

[@SmittySmithsonite]

Wow, what a delay! Curious as to what ATC had going on that required them to reroute everyone. I'm so fascinated by the amount of ground that Premier covers - I can't even imagine what it must look like in person. Glad you post these vids - I'd have had no idea otherwise ... and I never would've been this obsessed with aviation, either! 😎 Great vid, as always, and a big shout out to Sam for his EXCELLENT filming and editing! It's brought a whole other dynamic to the channel. 👍 👍

[@mannysamaniego702]

Nice job Sam!! Good thing is a quiet Friday at the office and you guys uploaded the video at the perfect time.

[@videopokernetwork6824]

I really appreciate the effort you take to make these videos. Also, thank you for sacrificing your time for our Coyntry. I don't mind bugs on the windshield, and every song is a favorite. Best regards and keep the videos and inflight chatter coming.

[@BeechSportBill]

Best way to start the morning! Even slept in my P1D t-shirt

[@janetolch8129]

Should I line it up with the runway "yes that would help" 😂😂😂 cracked up, nice job guy's really enjoy the channel 👍

[@nelsonortiz7961]

Out of the whole video the Intro song is what I enjoyed the most!!!

[@dougbourdo2589]

Really nice to see the interaction with the younger aviation enthusiasts. Bravo to you Sir. Love you videos. Great professionalism with appropriate wit.

[@lylewood2029]

Excellent video...another Golden Banana Award. :) As an ex-TV director I have a tendency to notice little subtle details in videos and one thing I've noticed is when you have a good landing followed by a shot of your face, you get just a hint of a grin as if to say, "Nobody knows how really good that one was." :) It's obviously an autonomous reflex to an uncontrollable chemical release so there's no use fighting it. :):):) Fly safe.

[@gregmink]

Thanks!

[@bruceerwinsfavs535]

Great of you giving rides to young flight enthusiasts, Greg.The EAA should award you. Nice job on that approach, Sam!

[@AviatorMark]

Hey there, just made my first order. Time to start supporting a fellow Indiana jet driver! Keep up the great vids, and hopefully, I'll see you around soon. I'm actually going to be based at MDW now instead of ORD, so it was neat to see this video for sure!

[@gregmink]

Thanks!

[@billyhoulihan5573]

Nice touch with the Flight Stats ! Great seeing more videos !

[@KutWrite]

Nice flight, as usual. Suggestion for Sam: The book "Stick and Rudder," by W. Langewiesche. He describes relationships between all the controls, why airplanes fly, and how to recognize a good approach early. It explains all simply and helped me a lot.

[@seinfeld11123]

so awesome you let him fly the approach

[@22pdent]

Really enjoy watching these videos. Learning alot. Thank you

[@raybeavers3123]

I really enjoyed this flight from Midway to Indy. Awesome video as usual. Great to view all your different angles in the cockpit too! If you ever have the opportunity to come thru Birmingham, Al, this old Retired Air Guard Fellow would be mighty Honored and to Excited to meet you Sir. Thank You for Sharing another beautiful flight.

[@gregmink]

Sounds good!

[@randyporter3491]

Sam’s mom keeping an eye on you guys ! That’s great ! You can not hide... lol! Great video guys, thanks for sharing !

[@tedshropshire1739]

Great Video - Answered many questions - LOVED THE THEME MUSIC. Good job. Glad to meet your editor as well.

[@breckjones5987]

Another great video Greg! All those people who watch live should just follow you on KZbin, you answer most of those questions in your videos. Just saying.

[@paulphibbs7162]

Thanks Greg, enjoyed the flight. Thanks for including the route information. Just downloaded the new XPlane 11 version of Carenado's Premier 1a. In VR it is FABULOUS. Can't wait to get it up.

[@bwmcofc]

I love the addition of the speed and direction

[@lucasjacques808]

Just heard you on frequency with Indy approach 🤙🏻

[@claybrewer5922]

What plane we're you in ?

[@dclome]

Wow your videos are getting better. Way to Go!

[@CookinCasey]

Greg, I think that you're a awesome person for all the things you do for aviation and people.

[@stevenhayden9572]

Great video! I have been using your videos to practice radio calls for my IFR training.

[@attitudeindicator7412]

Thanks for the tips on the mounts... I bought a Joby and will be trying it out this weekend.

[@dpm-jt8rj]

I did a lot of my training in and out of Executive but it was called something else back then. We would fly there and do pattern work. It was a really nice airport and with that being typical farm fields, every surface road intersection was a perpendicular angle which really helped doing pattern work. Nice job getting out of the B Airspace quickly. A lot of times, for GA, it might take a little while to exit.

[@greathornedowl3644]

Great video - thanks. Always nuggets to learn from.

[@n7565j]

What an awesome opportunity!!! Enjoy every minute young man!!! Thanks for exposing the next gen to the wonders of aviation sir :-) Well done gentlemen :-)

Yet another Great Video TY Greg

[@johnbee1095]

That was a very informative and entertaining one !! Really enjoyed it and looking forward to more . Would love to have been Sam for those last few miles !!

[@100pyatt]

Another awesome video that puts me in Dreamland .. just awesome to watch and think about living that life 👍

[@dutchygirl]

Thank you for posting another excellent video! I'm truly enjoying all your material. So awesome that you let Sam fly the approach!

Well darn, I wasn't filming yesterday!

[@krobinson8382]

Oh well. Still enjoyed right place, right time!

Great to see a new one uploaded. Always going to be a good video with Bieber aka Sam in right seat!! LOL :-)

[@klc317]

Theres two of those big Falcons based here at Lunken (KLUK) that have their own hanger, beautiful planes and all glass walls on the hanger. I believe they are owned by Wells Fargo. You can often see guys inside waxing and polishing on them.

[@UnBoxItwithMaureen]

Great flight as always.....great job Sam

[@UAL1kFlyer]

3:06 - ATT/HDG Aligning -- Do Not Taxi. That's cool to see. And my brain every morning.

[@chrisc161]

By the way I know you mentioned that you did not have as many viewers as before but there was not in advance notification that you were planning to go live. I watched this after the live presentation.

[@aaronphillips1984]

I heard a Unicom announcement from butler county HAO on there. That’s my field. I didn’t know anyone else around here was on 123.05. Great flight and video

If you get up high enough, you'll hear several different airports using your unicom freq.

"Flight of the Bumblebee" was a cool and appropriate intro song for your aircraft! I request Sammy Hagar's acoustic version, 3rd movement, of "Eagles Fly" for the next video. ;)

"Flight of the Valkyries" ;) and yes on Hagar!

Yes Herb, loving the upgrade!

[@XX-166]

Nice selection of apparel items, as far as the T shirts how about some V necks to go along with all those crew neck styles? That would be really cool also.

I live about 8 miles South of MDW and depending on what ORD is doing traffic flow wise MDW always has this situation pop on em.

Was that Pilot to Pilot podcast Justin getting his clearance at about 20:20?

[@teddyballgame4823]

Looked like an awesome day to fly.

[@curtisccr]

It won’t be long before the Eclipse won’t be alone in the auto throttle group. Just saw that the gen 2 Vision Jet and the new TBM 940 have auto throttle. Not quite the same, but I also saw a while back that IS&S, the people that made the system for the Eclipse, have an A/T system for the PC12 and King Air.

[@MartyBecker]

I love the smell of Jet-A in the morning. 👍

[@SteveCChapman]

Does your airplane have any sort of reverse thrusters or do you just rely on your brakes to slow down on the runway after touchdown? Thank you. I really enjoy watching your videos. It’s an immersion experience. High production quality

[@NikosWings]

Great video!

[@gnufz8623]

Pilatus PC24 also has autothrottle.

[@curtisccr]

Not quite the same class of jet. Yeah. I’m nitpicking though. :)

[@gnufz8623]

@@curtisccr Actually it is. 8 Pax, SPO-Certified, same speed, only double the range and a big cargo door. New price is $8m. The 390 cost $6.5m ten years ago, that would be 8m in today's money, too. Only because it isn't built anymore and spares will sooner or later become pricy, you get a 390 for $1.5-2m today.

[@baritonecan194]

Great vid! Is Sam now off to college? I hope you keep making new videos and have someone like him to compile and edit them. Keep up the great work!

[@kenstudios]

Your videos are awesome. Keep them coming. BTW, anyone ever told you that you kinda look like Anthony Bourdain?

[@robertg5393]

great video Greg.... On Eng 2, the ITT rose all the way >800F, near red-line - is that normal in the P1? In my C510, its 600F or so max upon start up.

[@psbonnici1]

Thanks for your videos :) ... Can the altimeter be included in the HUD that appears on the frontal cockpit view ?

[@gregmink]

It would be GPS altitude which will be different than displayed altitude. Which will then lead to a bunch of internet guardians telling me I'm off altitude...but, to answer your question, yes.
