John and Martha on the Joys of Flying Their Dassault Falcon Jet

John and Martha King discuss how much they enjoy the performance and the capabilities of their Dassault Falcon 10 jet. John and Martha are the co-chairmen of King Schools.
King Schools has delivered many millions of courses to pilots in training. Through intimate video instruction John and Martha King have taught more pilots than anyone in the history of aviation-for many years teaching more than half the pilots in the United States learning to fly. It's no surprise that pilots throughout the world know John and Martha and regard them as their personal aviation mentors.
See www.kingschools.com?sco=WB&scu=KZbin01 for more information about King School pilot training courses.

GOOD NEWS! I heard that John got his medical back in March of 2017. Congrats!

[@Hedgeflexlfz]

What did he get it removed for?

John, you and Martha are a legend! I hope you can get your medical license back soon. The sky needs you. Safe flying!

[@peterjones6182]

John and Martha King, two of the most well mannered and inspiring pilots of their time. They inspire new pilots, experienced pilots, and also people such as myself that read the magazine for knowledge about flying, world transportation and traveling and most of all about their caring about their fellow pilots and each other as they inspire us all and each other to be better people and pilots.

[@brendonhavener]

Have you met them in person?

[@plane15man]

I don't mean to brag, but I fly a Cessna 172 ;)

[@robertgary3561]

Nothing wrong with that. The 172 is a good plane. I've flown nearly every single engine piston and most piston twins and there aren't too many planes that aren't worth bragging about.

I watched King VHS tapes in 1999 and they helped me pass my pilots test.

[@jeffshankle4159]

Same here.... but in 1988. At that time I was an air traffic controller but still learned from their VHS tapes.

[@Heathfx5]

If flying together is a love language, John and Martha are the definition of it!

[@karthikv1212]

John and Martha are just great humans and when they teach a topic, empathy and kindness just shows. Its a delight for me to go through their lessons,even the dry topics. First time I watched them was 20+ years ago on FSX. So lucky to be learning from you both.

[@Altenholz]

That's exactly what i thought- thanks!

[@macfan999]

John, best of luck getting back your medical!! We need you behind the yoke!

[@mcjon77]

"So Martha flies with... other men." Come on man. Why did you have to put it that way? I know what you mean, but it just sounds dirty. LOL Either way, I REALLY hope John gets his medical back. He belongs in the air next to his wife.

[@captmel_mshelia]

God bless you John and Martha King. You’ve been a blessing to me, and most of my friends during my flight school years in Nigeria about 15 years ago. And still excited whenever I stumbled across your videos online. Wishing you both good health and long life🙏🏼

[@timarnold9969]

The LITERAL Rock Stars of aviation training! I can still hear their voices in my sleep after four-plus decades.

[@jungy9001]

Good to know John got his Medical back! God Bless you two, keep doing what you love. Take care.

[@MrRotorBow]

Cisco flies their 7x 500-600hrs a year?! That’s pretty steep for a corporate outfit. I hope they have a big pilot group!

[@Windtee]

Be well, John! We're expecting you to get right back behind the yoke again... ASAP!

[@geoffreybradford]

If it's true that one never forgets a first love, then I think it's true of our first experience with flying a jet. In my case, a Westwind II -a frumpy jet with sexy winglets lol. But I wouldn't trade the memory of my first takeoff in it for anything. King Schools is a success story deserving of the high compliments and praise it receives.

[@FlorianRunser]

Remembering their lessons on Flight Simulator 2004 :)

[@gendaminoru3195]

wow I remember you guys from way back. Martha's "aldeetude" warnings... LOL good to see you still at it.

Yes they are!

[@outwiththem]

Aviation Heroes.. Helped millions get licenses..

[@charlesrocks]

I had a chance to fly in a Falcon last week, as a passenger, and I fell in love with it. Such a high quality aircraft.

[@jimw1615]

Dassault Falcons have been my favorite from their beginning in the early 1960's. I always enjoyed articles and pictures of those early planes in Flying Magazine as I started to learn to fly. A quality marriage of the Kings to Dassault's Falcon for sure.

[@peterlovett5841]

I still think the Falcon 10/100 are the best looking GA aircraft and I don't think Dassault have ever made anything other than a fighter, even if it looks like a corporate jet.

[@haydenbrown8421]

I agree, Concorde, Spitfire and Falcon Jets, in any order together.

[@valuedhumanoid6574]

John has had the *big* downcheck. He may be perfectly healthy, but the FAA is very strict on medical clearance. A coworker of mine had to get one of those CPAP machines and because of it, the FAA downchecked him until he has a sleep study done for one calendar year and he must proved more than 6 hours uninterrupted sleep each night. There is no friggin' way he can do that, so his flying days are over

[@wesleynash8910]

love king flight schools! yall are the best of the best!

[@tomrohan8480]

I keep thinking about King & Martha..what their normal conversation at home would be like..both legends

[@ebm99]

Ya, I still recognised those voices after all these years, watched the vhs tapes at 14, couldn't wait, got my tickets starting 21 twenty-six years ago. That's a long time ago.

[@Jay-po4kh]

Ahhh I miss Falcon-10 I did initials and recurrent for single clients for 10 years at CAE Great Jet to fly

[@robertalexander2478]

Awesome, I hope you can get your license John! Couple of questions, do you offer courses on flying the Falcon 10? Can one person handle flying it? How much runway do you need, and what are the annual cost? I would like to purchase one in retirement and island hop.

[@50falcon]

Love the Falcon 50

[@pdoggy10inch]

such bullshit........I spent 50,000 hard earned dollars and I still ain't got my license

Why does the initial picture show a Falcon 900 with 3 engines???

Close! Falcon 7X

[@aviatortrevor]

Who is the narrator? I thought I recognized him from somewhere.

[@toddwolfe]

Miles O'brien, former CNN aviation corespondent, and he has done a lot of other aviation media. I was shocked to see him with a prosthetic arm in this video (04:31). According to wikipedia, in 2014 a Pelican case full of video equipment fell on his forearm, which eventually lead to him needing an amputation! I was sorry to hear this, he seems like a great guy.

[@N254NK]

Love that belt king..I will get u another

[@A.C31]

The Falcon 7X is beautiful!

[@davidhoffman5789]

I did not see where they owned a 7X. Deceptive advertising to get people to look at the video. They are legends in the world of pilot training.

[@jamesrandall4837]

where does it say 7x it doesnt it says John and Martha on the Joys of Flying Their Dassault Falcon Jet

[@A.C31]

David: I agree it was somewhat deceptive to shoe the 7X in the thumbnail. The Falcon 10 is nice for its class but is a fraction of the size and scope of the 3-hole Falcon greats!

[@A.C31]

David: I agree it was deceptive to see the 7X in the thumbnail. The 10 is nice for its class but the 3-holer 7X is a beast of machine!

[@davidhoffman5789]

Jeff Brown, I like the idea that Falcon Jet is exploring dual HUDs with the Enhanced Vision System. I hope they would upgrade the proposed 5X with those. Right now they only show single HUD on the 5X. There are dual HUDs on our C-17s and C-130Js and they seem to be working out quite well.

[@hiltonwatkins6750]

Nice to see Americans who are genuinely making contributions to the world! America is made up of so many people who have dedicated themselves to wonderful causes. I hope these people will step forward post Trump and speak up for all the Americans working so hard to keep American technology leading the world! This society has been instrumental in bringing about a privileged world and nothing is more satisfying to these good people than helping others to share in their good fortune! Bring back the American business leader who shared with others! In their own economy and the whole world! Time for a "Paradigm " shift back to more humane society! BTW , I am not an American citizen.

[@c140flyer]

John and Martha built their school from nothing. Back in '79, I attended their A&P school in Nashville. Jo hn taught and Martha picked me up every morning for school at the hotel. Their operation was a little smaller then!

[@GcoEnterprises]

Jon and Martha really bring a sense light-hearted and Happy-go-lucky feeling to the world of aviation. It seems even they are succumbing slowly but surely to the ravages of time, but at least I can be proud to know that my colorful and innocent views of the joys of flight are a lasting legacy they have forever etched in my mind and I will cherish it and keep it alive as long as I exist. To bring back the quality of people of their generation with the advancement of technology today would truly be a match made in Heaven!

Mystère 10, Falcon for the Anglo-Saxons, is a dream machine. That's not what I'm saying, that's what Herbert von Karajan meant, who owned a Falcon 10 and flew it himself.

[@Newzchspy]

Hal The Kings earned it and are legends in their arena. Why so negative? 99% of the pilots out there have seen a King video. This ain't a hobby for them.

[@skrutinizr9372]

yeah- look at all those people employed to repair, inspect, fuel that jet. The taxes they pay are immense. Your assertion that their hobbies are charged to taxpayers shows you have NO idea what you're talking about- jealousy is not a positive trait.

John, best wishes to you with your medical. Hopefully once more time passes without a recurrence of seizure symptoms, the FAA will agree that you're safe to fly!

Don't worry Mr King. I am not even a pilot and I know a lot about you and Mrs King

[@quinnjim]

"We slow down for airliners all the time". No…you don't. The Falcon 10 cruises at 430 knots. Airliners are faster than that. The new 737's fly as fast as 165 knots on final. The Falcon 10 is much slower.

[@davidt8087]

Let’s not forget most of us pilots only dream of having our own plane, much less a jet. The only jets we will fly are airliners or corporate jets. Having your own jet and not being a loser snob sitting in the back underpaying some desperate new pilot, but being the pilot of your own jet, is amazing. It’s sad most of us don’t have $3-100 million dollars to buy a jet
