HEAVY RAIN Bombardier Challenger 300 Flight to Nassau

[@spunkey46]

I luv the Challenger 300 what an awesome jet it is. Ive been flown about 5 times in one. So comfortable and smooth

[@humanfactorswithpaulgarth9596]

Something very comforting about the focused intensity and politeness from Jeff during maneuvering ops. Great CRM agreements between Jim (our favorite captain) and Jeff.

[@randyporter3491]

Human Factors with Paul Garth Well said.

[@UTarcher72]

That is a gorgeous plane Captain!!

Miss Priss, No ! for take off............... Perhaps all aircraft in the entire world except yours should be grounded just for YOU whenever YOU grace the skies and world with your magnificence..........

9MK needs to take a chill pill. They're close to hard IFR so just sit there and wait it out like everyone else. Irritates the ---- outta me when I hear that stuff. We get it. We've all had to take our turn in the barrel.

[@bahenbihen]

Damn she was annoying. Can't imagine being ATC: not only are they busy, but also have to deal with a few irritating folks

[@nickstl77]

What time in the video was this?

[@roddog24]

@@nickstl77 7:41 and 11:09 In her defense, she had nearly 4 minutes since she lined up to the runway. I think she could have made her takeoff safely. In defense of the ATC, it sounded really busy and weather was terrible. Best to safe than sorry

[@omniryx1]

@@roddog24 I hope she never has to join us in the queue at JFK. The controllers there will snatch a kink in her neck. If she is in the right-hand seat, her captain should not let her get away with stuff like that. If she's in the left-hand seat, she must be a PIA to fly with.

[@lmartinez3633]

Really enjoy seeing many types of aircraft in your videos, never a dull day...

Good Morning Capt! Nice breakthrough and greasy smooth landing in crappy weather. Have a good one and safe travels. ☕️

I totally agree with Jeff's comment about turboprops, at the end of the video. Turboprops and turbofans seem to be converging in that the fans are getting fewer and fewer blades, while the props are getting more.

Hey Capt! Heard 9U today on Atlanta center around 9:00am! I was heading into Charlotte! Cool hearing you on Atlanta while flying after watching your videos for years! Hopefully it’ll be a video you were making. Safe flying!

[@captmoonbeam]

Hi John. That was us. We had a day trip to Statesville.

[@chrisburress9747]

Great video really enjoying them coming out every Monday. Jeff landings are something else.

[@randyporter3491]

Another great video with you and Jeff in the cockpit. I think most fans really enjoy these videos in the Challenger. Beautiful aircraft and Jeff is great. Although, his voice is a bit different than Mike’s lol! !

Jim, I am loving that airplane. Keep up the great videos.✈️

Thanks Steve.

Flying a Challenger 300 and being a realtor, damn And here I am spending the day on yt flying 1 to 2 days a week

[@richschindler8731]

Another fun ride. I’m so glad that when I was flying we stayed with the plane and didn’t have to take commercial flights home. But every operator is different. My longest stay in one place was three weeks. Had to endure the English countryside for three weeks. We never stayed in London proper.

Darn, was hoping to watch the flights back as well but I know that's not always feasible when keeping your videos a certain length. Thanks for bringing us along!

Thanks. Almost didn't get this one up . I was working on it in the hotel room in Homestead Florida last night.

Appreciate you Capt! I finally had some time to watch a video.

Thanks.

Was this on the 28th of December? I just so happened to be spotting that day but left about an hr before your arrival. The Jonas Brother's 727 was my main mission that morning.

Enjoyed the flight. Thanks much. I have a Challenger 300 in my X-Plane 11 fleet. Have not flown it yet. Is St Louis your home base? I went to college there in the early 70's (Parks). Fond memories.

[@wb6she]

Thanks for a good flight Captain.. not used to seeing you in the right seat, soon for the left I hope?..

[@wayneblake1886]

I like your videos ,

[@Visonista]

Jim .. you forgot to share a shot of your meal in Nassau. Also its interesting to know whether you enjoy the meals you share with us, you know .. an opinion on the food in different locations. Thanks for another great video! I know its been asked before, but will you soon be performing take-offs and landings in the Challenger?

[@nashguy207]

Great video as always Jim. It was seeing Jeff Again. I love that Challenger. What is the time difference between the challenger and the citation on the same flight? Have a great week!!!

[@michaelmitiszek1538]

It must be an honour to have such an experienced captain as a copilot. When will you be checked out as captain on the Challenger? How many hours flight time will you need in the right seat? Or is there something wrong with my point of view, Jim? (This time I couldn't see, wether your captain was looking stressed on final?)

[@Altenholz]

Something went wrong with the audio from 3:36 on. Beside that, real marvellous aircraft to me- would leave every A320 or B737 for it!

[@Vagabondo-fs6qu]

Question: if you were unable to land at Nassau due to weather conditions or other issues; what is your alternative; are you able to make it back to mainland USA?

[@chrisbowpiloto]

sounds like some busy airspace as well!

[@captmoonbeam]

Right after Christmas they get very busy there.

Hi Capt! Hope all is well and you and your family are remaining safe and Covid Free! Are you guys not flying for now?

[@chucklesx]

Just wondering at you running the apu on takeoff, I have heard you mention shutting it down in a couple of you challenger vids... was thinking it maybe takes up the electrical load from the aircon and enviromental systems leaving more engine power for the climb. ☺

[@shezad2006]

Sir just an advice, to have your cameras

More helpfully, around 4 minutes you develop a humming and the audio goes out until about 6 minutes.

[@ChrisMuncy]

Good afternoon Jim!. Glad to hear about the Monday release schedule. Now... will they be released in the same year that they were shot? :p You know I'm teasing.

[@jdkgcp]

I watch tons of flight channels/vids and one thing I've always wondered about is while pilots go through all their checklists it's always "check", "checked", "confirmed", "check" etc. The question is....what if during one of these checklists the pilot or copilot notices something seriously wrong.....what do they say? I assume it's not "Oh Sh*t". What's the command word and sequence of action?

[@Visonista]

It is usually a description of the situation. For example, if the flaps were left at 10° and not retracted, one might say the check item 'Flaps Retracted' and then upon verifying their status say something like 'Negative, flaps still at 10, retracting now'.

[@jdkgcp]

@@Visonista I was honestly hoping for something more dramatic like "RED, RED, RED!" Because it would be way more exciting. But all jokes aside I would have thought there would be a single command word for a major failure or error. And maybe it's just me being overly logical....but shouldn't there be? It's all "checked" and "confirmed" but no words for when it's not?

[@Visonista]

@@jdkgcp Following your reasoning, when the words 'check' or 'confirmed' are used, they are immediately preceded by a description of the item being checked, therefore it is also logical to enunciate the condition of the item being checked should it fail to be as required. Regarding a more 'dramatic' response to non-conforming checklist items, we need to remember that the checklist is not really a 'test' of procedure, but an integral part of it, meaning that if an item has not yet been selected (or deselected) the opportunity to do so is made available during the check, and which is the very function of a checklist. In other words, an item which is identified as having been neglected does not constitute an emergency but merely something which must now be addressed.

[@captmoonbeam]

I think you're right.

[@graysono]

You depart with APU running and shutdown in initial climb? That so totally fully power available??

[@stonebear]

From what they were saying, I believe it's so the APU can run the pressurisation system (which is normally run from bleed air from the engines, which takes away takeoff power).
