Gulfstream V Landing in Aspen Feb 2017

[@madrush8]

The scenery is incredible. It's almost so perfect it doesn't look real. Wonderful landing. Bravo

[@texasrebel7754]

In the 80's I lived in that little valley along the river they were flying over on final approach. It is incredibly scenic out there, no doubt, even in the summertime. Alas, I was a worker bee, not one of the rich kids. Still a great place.

My old stomping grounds! Miss that approach! 😎 Well done, Sir!

[@wendelallen2539]

That was one fine approach and landing...very controlled and smooth! It amazes me how many business jets (of all sizes) are crammed in along the runway at the Aspen airport. And, given the amount of jet traffic following that difficult approach, their safety record is quite impressive. BTW, I'm wondering how you extract your jet out of its parking space when it's time to fly out of Aspen. Seems to me that in some cases a couple of planes would need to be moved in order to get your jet onto the taxi-way. Although I always enjoy skiing Aspen there's lots of other places in the American West with far higher average snowfall and generally better ski conditions, so I've always wondered why Aspen's so popular with the rich and famous...I guess it's the partying besides the skiing.

[@mikeday62]

My most memorable landing ever was coming into Aspen on a United Express CRJ700. Due to a state-wide blizzard the crew told us we might be forced to return to Denver. Passing over highway 82 a few hundred feet from the runway threshold (Aspen) a serious wind gust forced the pilot to quickly bank hard left. I was looking out the window straight down at the ground only 40-50 feet below. Otherwise the landing was perfect and passengers cheered! No more planes landed or took off there for about 48 hours (December 2006).

[@marks6663]

nothing wrong with being rich, other than for the fact that the rich have a very disturbing internationalist worldview that is selling out the western world. It is not their wealth that is oppressing me. It is the growing wealth gap caused by their way of thinking. Nobody should aspire to be rich. I don't want to be. Because once you are rich, the money makes you part of the problem. America was made great by the middle class which is only possible if you stop the rich from hollowing it out. You will always have the rich and you will always have the poor. But now we have the middle class being gutted by the politics of the rich.

The biggest issue we face today is the politicians that take money from lobbyists to enrich themselves, the real shocker are the politicians on the left taking money from globalist like George Soros who want open borders. As long as this is going on you'll never see the middle class or poor workers see their pay rise because the over abundance of illegal cheap labor crossing our borders freely. The laws of supply and demand are in play here, why do you think we the working class have seen our wages stagnate. Anyone that says you can't be successful in business is either lazy or a believer in cultural marxism and is waiting for the wealth redistribution to begin, and that ain't happening in your lifetime. A person could start a dog shit scooping business and if done properly could become wealthy. You just need an understanding of how to raise capital, manage labor and have an understanding of how our tax system works, which left up to tax accountants anyway. Between industrial automation and cheap labor crossing our borders middle class labors are screwed, if we don't control one of them all is lost, industrial automation isn't going away, that's the industry I'm in and follow trends closely. so that leaves the other to control or we will continue swirling down the drain. Edit: I don't expect you to understand anything I just said because what you just laid out in your comment screams of marxist brainwashing.

[@Kneedragon1962]

Very nice. I had a friend, almost 20 years ago. He was from Afghanistan, and had been the personal pilot of the Afghan president, before the Al Quada kicked him and the Russians out. He was a 747 captain, had spent a couple of years learning to fly in America. I asked him what the toughest & most dangerous airport in the world was. He though about that for a few seconds, then said the second worst, was probably Kabul, because not only was it at the bottom of landscape like a funnel, that you had to spiral into and out of, but you had to watch for shoulder fired SAMs, and (chop all power) and duck if & when necessary. But the worst airport in the world, he told me, was Aspen. ? Seems it is high altitude, there's common icing conditions, there are surrounding hills, there's one way in and out, and there are lots of owner-pilots who show up in their Pipers and their LearJets, and sometimes they do what ATC tells them, and sometimes they don't... It was Michael's opinion, having done both, that he'd rather spiral down into or up out of Kabul, in a 747, watching for smoke from a Stinger, than fly into Aspen and wonder which cowboy in a LearJet of a Gulfstream, was going to argue with ATC and then simply do what he wanted to do anyway....

That Aeronca was the funnest plane I ever owned. No starter, hand brake shot, so I put two chocks under wheels with long string running back to cockpit , get out, crank the prop, run back to cockpit and get in and finally pull both strings until the chocks were inside cabin thru the window. Once had crosswind on landing coming from 30 degrees at 30 knots.. Stall speed was around 45 MPH so I aimed at the the high speed turnoff, which made my landing direct into the wind stalling at ground speed of 40 MPH. The plane was dead still within 40 or so feet. Didn't even use up the length of the hi speed turn off from the runway. Tower (PHX) said, "Nice landing Chief, don't do that again."
