Holy Crap That Plane Is Close! - Pilot VLOG 38

We had a day trip out of Salt Lake City to Bozeman, Montana, then to San Francisco, then back to Salt Lake City. We had some amazing views of snow covered mountains into Bozeman. We also had a beautiful parallel approach into SFO with a Southwest Airlines Boeing 737. Unfortunately, the sun had just gone down, so the video was not the best going into San Francisco, look closely for the B737 on the left!

[@jaimtime]

The chemistry between them was undeniable. Sure do miss them

[@dickmoore7341]

I sure miss these days Shaun with you and Jon cruising around, I really do ;-(

[@richardedwin5980]

Sure do miss seeing you & John in the cockpit. Your chemistry and professionalism were unmatched and one can tell that you two just meld as one. Much more so than your current co-workers. Miss these videos. Would love an update on John.

[@mikethomas6208]

These two cats have the most cohesive and fluid back and forth ! One would hope all crews were as such!

[@examiner0078]

Shawn I know you are probably glad you moved on to your new job,but, I gotta tell you I miss you and John together. Nobody else seems to be quite as good as he was. I still enjoy watching your old Presidential 69 videos. Be safe as always. Chip 😎

[@DonAv8s]

I like the fact that despite all your combined flight hours, you guys still appreciate the beauty and majesty of the view from the cockpit, and talk about it.

[@gregmink]

Probably my favorite video of yours! I can't get me enough Montana. And the parallel approach was fantastic. Great editing too! When we talked crossing the Gulf, I think you guys only had 2,000 subs. Now you are up to 25K and climbing! Nicely done!

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Thank you! You have no idea how much it means hearing that from someone like yourself. We decided to start this channel because of inspiration from channels like yours and Baron Pilot's. I hope all is well for you!

[@Mbuzisana]

Hi. I'm flying enthusiast. Recently subscribed. Love your cockpit demeanour.

[@niceguy2171]

Awesome video, and the Montana footage was just beautiful! Thanks for having us along, it is appreciated.

[@moondawg5]

[@arthurparris6223]

[@billgates.got.ripped6965]

[@djblanton]

I agree. Complete professionalism. So refreshing.

[@lauleneke1352]

Awesome guys. Thanks for taking the time in producing these videos. You guys have the best job.

[@ammilano]

Love this channel! You guys take all the anxiety out of flying for me! Thank you for that! Looking forward to more fantastic videos.

[@BenA-bu1cz]

Sweet.......again. Thanks for the video. Looking forward to the next one. Stay safe.

[@gcritch33]

Hi from London and even my wife is enjoying your channel. Thanks for taking the time producing such high quality videos and would be good to learn more about your career path into Corporate flying. Looking forward to sharing many more trips with you both.

[@fidelcastro9579]

Great work guys. Never knew how much pilots have to do in the cockpit. Amazing insight.

[@RVgeeks]

Just awesome to be flying with you guys. Feels like I’m right there with you. Thanks for having us along. 😊👍✈️

[@simonticehurst5899]

Such an amazing insight in to the life of an amazing crew of private pilot/pilots and flight assistant of course,you guys are so good at making everything look effortless it is refreshing to watch you all and how you obviously enjoy your all be it tiring job/jobs but it looks more than a job more a life choice,and what an amazing choice that is,many thanks you guys ROCK

[@mikestone9129]

Love every video you guys make. Long days, short nights. The life of a corporate/charter pilot:)

[@Pintuuuxo]

Before I go home I watch this video AGAIN to go in a good mood. Thank you guys. Fly safe and always have fun.

[@guitarplayingman]

These are great rides for those of us that never get higher or faster than a Baron. Love to hear some technical stuff! Thanks for posting these...

[@ronaldduckworth3270]

Bozeman was beautiful. Thanks for all the mountain footage.

[@Baminokrat]

And they’re back!!! Shaun and John The best duo in aviation 👍 Thanks Shaun for republishing these! « Top of the box » , you have to love john’s phraseology 😉

[@thumbun3769]

Newest fan here. Best aviation vids on YT. Keep them coming.

[@gpsdriver_retired]

Great videos all together. I sincerely appreciate "riding" with you guys.

[@crossthreadaeroindustries8554]

Just super, love it. Have to get back in the cockpit, been 10 years, now. My, how time goes by.

[@MrRadarrat]

Nice to see the flight from this side, I spent years giving the old...."Descend to cross Cedes at maintain 11000 250 knots, SFO altimeter....." or the more dreaded... proceed direct Cedes to hold S.E. as published maintain FL200 leg length your discretion EFC at 2200, time now 2115...I loved working the flow, the general recreational aviation was always fun to weave in and out. Great videos

[@jeffreyg3831]

I have to compliment both of you on your professionalism! Great informative videos!!!

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Thank you!

[@bobvonbuelow9983]

Stunningly beautiful! Thanks.

[@rogeronslow1498]

Thanks for the quick reply. Great videos.

[@randallhash9283]

A wonderful and informative video...Thanks for sharing...Looks like an exciting career.

[@MsNipri]

Niiiiice!!!! Love the Parallel Approach with the 737!!!!! Thumbs Up!!!!!

[@erikluchsinger346]

Awesome video. I like the port cam (first time I've seen that view.) You guys really need to be flying a 650 with all that cockpit talent! Thanks so much.

[@garymichels4552]

Awesome video, I'm so hooked on this!!!

[@flyingkiwimama]

Just found your site and love watching down here in New Zealand. Thats at the bottom of the world.

[@tedgray489]

Just added your channel and have been catching up on the videos and ran across this one which brought back memories (years ago) of the same approach into SFO with my Skymaster on the right and 737 on the left. I always kept the speed up to match the jets on the approach but then level out over the rwy, pull back the power and "coast" to the last few thousand feet before touchdown and off to the GA area. Love the editing mix.

[@randallhash73]

Wonderful flight and video editing as usual...Keep it up guys.

[@AviationWorldwide]

Really enjoying your content, especially on trips like these :)

[@davidmuenzer577]

The best to watch. These guys are the best example of Cockpit Resource Management. Very sterile flight deck as they are all biz. I actually flew Presidential from FXE to MRY about 7 years ago, probably before they were doing these videos. Needless to say it was a great flight.

[@randyariey2373]

great show guys I watch you all the time

[@hiddenknowledge2012]

Best thing about this channel compared to the rest is that you guys are so normal, just two friends with the bonus of flying around the world in a business jet.

[@NathanElcoate]

Great flights.

[@mitchr482]

This video brought back some amazing memories for me. Most of my flight training was conducted in Bozeman, I completed my private and most of my instrument there. It's a gorgeous area to fly all year around. Thanks for making it possible for me to see another beautiful Montana sunset. Amazing footage as always.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

It certainly is a beautiful area...I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

[@mikelyons3117]

Best aviation channel out there , love it

[@CorporatePilotLife]

I love hearing that! Thank you!

[@danbaddeley767]

I'll second that!!

[@smokintodd564]

Nice flight. Would liked to have seen the KSFO taxi. Cheers!

[@TheByard]

Did a parallel landing aboard a Pan Am 747 Heathrow to San Francisco, the pilot came on the PA. "I wish to assure passengers that there are two runways down there" This was back in the 1980s our 1st trip to the US, using a Pan Am fly drive holiday. Got held up in immigration and the officer apologised, he then gave us some travel tips on seeing as he said The Real California. I accepted as long as he put his name and phone number on the sheet, so called him three weeks late from LA. He and his wife flew down for dinner with us and there started a 6 year friendship. Man you guys are bringing back so many memories. safe flying.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Very cool! Crazy how you meet people along the way...those parallel approaches are super cool!

[@jazzdad24]

Excellent Landing!!

[@dennisvan4407]

First! Nice guys, I really enjoy watching. You both are very professional and seem to have a passion for the job.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Thank you! We certainly love what we do...

[@mb8kr]

@@CorporatePilotLife you made from your job a hobby, you guys rock.

[@fernandom9220]

Great videos gentlemen, New to the channel and loving it.

[@alexpanchana6868]

Good flight, very nice view, app to SFO nice too

[@Jay-hr3rh]

I don't know if it's because I'm super high right now but that San Fran landing was the most realistic video caption I've seen. I'v watched many of these. Sweet.

[@Cheeto80]

Awesome video!!!

[@plumbdog1964]

Great vid fellas

[@boatlover1875]

Wish it had been light at SFO. I did a fair amount of investigative work out there before retiring. I liked to stay at the Marriott abeam of the dependent approaches to the 28s and watch the fun. Pretty good view from the bar.

[@stevedrake604]

Nice video. That G-IV is one of the few business jet cockpits I've seen where the pilots aren't sitting on top of each other.

[@lucianosantucci108]

Those views - WOW.

[@Stuff572]

Oh wow, you came to my home town of Bozeman, MT!

[@billinga]

Auto Throttles, very nice!! Thanks for sharing!!

[@CorporatePilotLife]

They will certainly spoil you...

[@Diesel844]

Yes, they do... :-)

[@bigd-1-channel514]

Cool, I just now seen this video, nearly 2 years after it was posted, amazing.

[@mabrams8740]

You guys make that look easy.

[@jenniferwhitewolf3784]

Nice winter video!

[@sixfooteskimo]

Freaking awesome watching from Alaska

[@stephenbritton9297]

Just found this channel. Nice work!

[@rickporvaznik5030]

You guys are awesome. Eat those chips.

[@hawaiirealmedia5610]

Fun landing!

[@marlinkojak9882]

love the video thanks

[@markchamberlain6607]

I love your videos

[@peterderidder6549]

Great video's! Congratulations. If i may ask: why are you always flying LH seat?

[@freedombw]

Loving the videos guys keep it up! If possible would love to see the start up producers!

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Thanks! Startup is on the list in the near future...

[@tommylopez7680]

I am a big fan of the Aeronca C-3, and Champ, and the G-4. Have flown in the G-4, 3 times, and the Global Express, once.

[@jeffreygiddings2782]

Nice to see John without the sunglasses! He always seems to wear them.

[@garycombs8467]

just awesome......i'm hookedcheck computer every night for new videogreat job

[@philanderson1200]

After watching the newest videos I had to go back and watch some good old videos with Jon and the Presidential 69 G IV

[@OverKillPlusOne]

Yup, all sorts of angry critters. I’d be more worried about moose personally. :)

[@shawndavis9349]

Hey Shaun --- Just rewatching some of the older videos. Do you ever catch up with Jon? I think the 2 of you made the channel what it is . You guys had good chemestry.

[@jasonduncan8001]

Really enjoy the videos.... was wondering what your education and experience is and how did you obtain this job?? Thank you.

[@gmfurnald9219]

Very nice video. I enjoy them as I do P1D in a Premier 1A. G-IV's are the balls! Wasn't it at SFO on 28R where the Air Canada was lined up for the taxiway?

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Yes it was! Air Canada had a few issues at SFO last year...

[@Xpyburnt_ndz]

The Grizzlies like the chewy centers! HA!

[@nurimilad65]

Amazing,,,,,

[@dschell1961]

I am glad I subscribed to your channel totally awesome have so many questions for you guys but will stick with a couple for now,how many miles can your gulfstream fly? How many hours are you entitled to sleep when you stop for a over nighter?

[@CorporatePilotLife]

The G-IV is good for about 4200 Nautical Miles. We have to get 10 hours of rest between duty days, but that often includes driving to and from the hotel and what not...

[@mikhaellamarche-renaud4409]

Hey guys absolutely love the videos im wondering have you ever been to Montréal? (CYUL, CYHU or CYMX)

[@CorporatePilotLife]

It's been a few years, but yeah! Did a little Sturgeon fishing last time we were there.

[@richardsimpson3943]

Hi guysBest wishes from the UK great videos, thank you for the magnificent scenery you show and all the insights into your work, I can only watch with awe at the intensity and complexity of flight.Just one question, why Presidential 69??Regards Rick Simpson

[@CorporatePilotLife]

The management company is called Presidential Aviation. They get Presidential # Flight IDs for all the planes they manage. We don't have to use it, but we kind of like it.

[@ashlabogan7084]

I wonder if people who have seen your video or are subscribers that have the $$$$ have called your company requesting your crew to fly them to a destination. I was planning on going to bed an hour ago and your channel is keeping me awake. LOL.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

HAHA...sorry for keeping you up. We have had a few requests for us, but none have booked that I know of...

[@celestialfix]

You Florida boys look pretty cold up there in MT!

[@camilozuluagacuervo6638]

Great videos! How did you get to fly part 135 ? I'm still building some hours flying banners in south Florida. Hopefully one day I'll see you in the air landing on FLL. Thanks for the videos

[@CorporatePilotLife]

I spent several years flight instructing to build time myself...I actually spent a year as a Gulfstream right-seater at Flight Safety to get my feet into the jet world. Then Jon hired me into my first 135 company, and that was over 6 years ago. I'm thinking about doing a full video on how I got into corporate jets...stand by for that one!

[@paultaylor9939]

Fantastic views guys thank you, great skills loving the plane how old is it ? Cheers

[@CorporatePilotLife]

This plane is a 1999 model

[@MrBillygoat]

Very nice !!!

[@johns8771]

New to the channel. I do have a question though you've probably answered it in one of your earlier videos. Why the "presidential" call sign?

[@brunoh9818]

Thanks guys, very nice videos. Question: What do you mean with "nutcracker is checked"?

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Glad you like the videos!! The Nutcracker is the gulfstream term for weight on wheels switch. I actually have an explanation about 5 minutes in to the video titled "Gulfstream G-IV Ft. Lauderdale to Teterboro and Back". Follow the link below if you would like to see it. I hope it explains everything...and thanks again for watching! kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJmmh3mnnq2LrLc

[@dylanmcgraw]

Here I thought it was a something related to the stall protection system, ie the stick shaker 😂 Thanks for the explanation!

[@andrewroy6740]

Great videos guys. Tell me, on final into BZM you say "rughing 10 sinking 1000" or is is refing 10? I get sinking 1000 fpm decent rate but what is roughing 10? Keep the videos coming.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Hey Andrew...it's actually "Ref and 10" referring to the Vref speed plus 10 knots. This is the appropriate speed on final approach for the G-IV.

[@galegregory97comcast]

SNOW WAS NICE

[@promizeband]

Was that one red light on the papi into SFO, John? Lol JK. Awesome video/flight.

[@sergiosauceda9836]

grettings from México, hey nice job the one you guys have, I love your videos as well as the tipe of aircraft you fly, Hope I get to fly guslfstream some day, one quick question. . , do you allways team up, no other pilots you get to fly with ?

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Hey Sergio! Welcome to the channel! We are the only two pilots on this airplane. Sometimes one of us gets sick or takes vacation, so we have to hire a contract pilot to fill in. But for the most part, it's just us. Thanks for watching!

[@sergiosauceda9836]

Thanks to you for sharing great footage of your day to day job, let me know if you ever come to Puerto Vallarta México, I will be happy to take you for great sea food, hope you both like it . . !!

[@bravohotel100]

Hi guys just found your channel and now subscribed great videos Question have you ever been down under to Australia or New Zealand in the G4 Greetings from Auckland New Zealand.

Just added on as a subscriber. Do you guys have a video of San Antonio (SAT) as a destination?

[@CorporatePilotLife]

I think the closest we have to San Antonio is Austin. We've been to San Antonio several times, but I don't think we have any videos of it. The link below is the one for Austin in case you're interested... kzbin.info?o=U&video_id=pnzm0gikJT4
