don't fly during wildfires... ( Part 3.)

Man coolest video in a while. Editing, company, slow mo through the prop, wildlife, golden color with the smoke, and you nailed the music. Just awesome.

[@JonasMarcinko]

Thank you!

[@homertalk]

Jonas, You the Man!!!!

[@pfd_mark_taylor]

Agreed. Awesome video

[@meals24u]

Yes!! I think so too! Such a great and positive video!!

[@mountainmikeoutdoors]

Get your instrument rating. Even if you don't plan on filing/flying IFR the skills involved are extremely valuable and will make you a better VFR pilot. You can fly in what I call "dry IMC" which is smoke, haze, and inversions without a clearance and without a flight plan in most class G airspace. If you upgrade your avionics and air filtration systems, you can depart IFR through smoke without a clearance from a Class E airport and either pick up your clearance when you reach center controllers or continue VFR once you've left the smoke. It adds an extra layer of proficiency and safety, and also allows you to continue pushing your airplane to the edge of its performance. Great video. Keep making these.

[@v.e.7236]

Amen! IFR cert is such a life-saver, when encountering unanticipated visual obstructions - aka: special VFR.

[@jimhuskyflying]

This was a really entertaining series. It highlights some of the other aspects of backcountry flying, which include maintenance issues, smoke, and finding airports when you are forced to plan B or even C. Thank you!

[@ralong8915]

That smoke over the mountains was crazy! Great footage though. Thanks for taking us along! I miss the Kitfox but the Capella has grown on me. Can't wait to see it upgraded so you can stay safe up there.

[@joetownsend-]

Jonas, Best part was seeing You and Silvija Jo LOVE EACH OTHER when You got home‼️ Glad YALL got back safe‼️ The scenery and adventure was breathtaking‼️ Please wear boots on that one wheel or in the backcountry‼️ BLESSINGS FOR YOU AND SILVIJA JO‼️

[@benjamincass2365]

Smoke is no joke. Was in Stanley too and saw the snowmobiles out. Traveling with RV... I did scope out the Stanley airport for my son has a Cessna 210 and hope to get him to visit next year. Great video!!!

[@jwoodyr1]

Best Jonas video yet!! 100% awesome start to finish!! Your mad skills are sharpening even more. Thanks for sharing!!!!!

[@charlesallan1]

Jonas, enjoyed the video even with fire hazards et all. Like you said xx at finish, best part was reunion with Silvija. You two are such a cute couple. So much fun to keep up with you.

[@robertsmme]

I got into watching your videos and I have to say you have flown over some of the most amazing landscapes. You country is beautiful, so many of the places you fly over are totally awesome in the original meaning of the word.

[@diamondplaysgames97]

"we are back to Johnson CreEeEeEeEEeeeee..." lmao love it Jonas!

[@jimgiordano5378]

Some epic story telling, Jonas. Thanks for putting the time into making these videos. Great scenery!!!

[@porkorosso7885]

Jonas, the last three videos were really great! Thanks man! I've got a Czech Sports Cruise PS28 Certified and have had to follow three SBs from the factory to deal with the overheating.

[@cabinwildlife7753]

Absolutely enjoyed every minute of your series, real , raw and not HOLLYWOOD ! Keeping it real .

[@rizzywizzy]

Awesome video, great editing and what an adventure. This video is probably the best of this series. You were talking about Johnson Creek being not that busy. Caldwell airport, where I fly out of and which I believe is the second busiest airport in Idaho (due to the helicopter training school) has NOT been very busy this year either. It's just a weird year. But it allows me training on my new fixed wing with less air traffic to worry about. Stay safe and Blue skies. Rizwan.

[@robertbaker7259]

Hi Jonas. I’m a 2100 hour multi engine pilot. I’ve never had so much fun flying as you do! I love your videos. Great adventure. Sylvia is cool to. Marry her!

[@gtr1952]

Wow, I had a 1967 Moto-Ski 18 hp single, and a 1970 Polaris 440 Free Air like the 2 in the "antique snowmobile" collection, in 1967 and 1970, brand new!! It gave me flash backs just seeing those!! Wow am I getting old!! LOL 8) --gary

[@DanielSDiehl]

Awesome video! Visited a friend in Ketchum last summer and drove through Stanley. Definitely worth going to Stanley Baking Company if you haven’t already. You and your buds are so lucky you to have those mountains to fly around. Sawtooths are beautiful.

[@JonasMarcinko]

We stopped in at the bakery. So good!

[@nolanercanbrack1798]

Atlanta! I love flying in there and camping. I go there as often as possible

[@nolanercanbrack1798]

Atlanta Georgia everyone! 😂

[@d.jensen5153]

Even after 20 years, I still can't believe I own a piece of Idaho backcountry. It's almost not of this world.

[@danawalker55]

Oh boy! Welcome home whoopie!!!! Thanks Jonas looked like a fun time was had by everyone!

[@sooprfrek12]

This was extremely well edited. I was entertained the entire time. Great work!

[@HoosierPilot]

Man that looks brutal. I love your videos! I wish I could do some off runway stuff, but the best we get are some grass strips here and there. Getting my tail wheel endorsement and making some back country videos is definitely on my bucket list.

[@flyboi4877]

Dude Jonas has some serious guts. He does some crazy cool flying!

[@pappybo49]

And he does some crazy stupid stuff too.

[@cbshomebizplane]

All that great flying Jonas and then that mushy stuff at the end yuk LMBO 😆, I hope to be flying next spring if possible. Love you guys God bless you all and see you on the next one.

[@robertclark4509]

Jonas, great video .I had to watch the WHOLE video

[@josephstephen4295]

Yellowpine is my home away from home and Johnson creek is my dream airport to fly into. btw, the corner is the best place to get burgers. Bar none. awesome video!

[@davidrobins4025]

Back country flying in Idaho is spectacular. Thanks for sharing this with us. Horse-flies are NOT nice. It looks like flying in smoke is really challenging.

[@rludemann]

I see you all have monowheels, nice way to add content this way because you are not limited to a small circle around your plane. Love to watch your videos, thanks for your effort

[@edwardupton6129]

Thankyou from Australia Jonas I enjoy your adventures/ misadventures say hi to Sylvija Love the baby bulldog

[@siiilvija1]

Crazy! Such cool views though 😍

[@joetownsend-]

Silvija Jo, The Coolest Veiw~ AND THE BEST WAS SEEING YOU AND JONAS LOVE EACH OTHER WHEN HE GOT BACK🌹♥️✨ How can he go off without YOU⁉️ I always had a hard time leaving my wife~ even going to work‼️ I never went anywhere, except to work or take the children out so she could have her time for peace and relaxation‼️ Usually, I would take them several times a week, sometimes daily‼️ 4 children were overwhelming‼️ BLESSINGS FOR YOU AND JONAS‼️ THANK YALL FOR HELPING ME BE HAPPY‼️

[@mikercflyer7383]

Great adventure and the best part coming home to your sweetheart 👍

[@edwinkania5286]

The video quality has got better wow!! awesome secret spot... I graduated HS in 1987

[@t.mischol8236]

Damn been here for years now and its still just getting better! hope u get the capella back up soon!

[@808bboarder]

Stay safe buddy! Also thanks for the awesome content as usual👏

[@romainlena8082]

As always great video 😉👏👏👏

[@angelreading5098]

Briilliant video felt as if we were there with you all,that smoke is frightening so take care as Silvija loves you and we do too,great editing.

[@challenger2ultralightadventure]

Don't know why, but right now I have that classic old Deep Purple song "Smoke On The Water" running through my head. You know the song, with that unforgettable opening guitar riff.

[@KitfoxGrin]

Ok, I gotta bring the Kitfox that way! Loved it!

[@volkerjansen3901]

This was one gorgeous video!

[@skippyfpvexperimentalrc6755]

Wow dude . Love your content keep up the great work . Hope to get a bush plant when I get older I currently fly paramotors!

[@mikecook2474]

Epic sound track for the landing.....super heroes

[@Chris-ye1lc]

Awesome vid, you guys made it just in time. The smoke got worse. I've planned for gold in those springs before haha, pretty cool spot, thanks for sensoring it. You'll have to hop over to Graham next time you come up. Really cool strip.

[@WillOstrick]

Been waiting for another video.. 🤙 Pair of legends

[@LogicBob]

That should probably be your standard into... "Don't do this." 😄

[@CRWTower]

Smiley Creek! Finally an airport I've been to except I was on a motorcycle. Beautiful. One of my favorite overnight stops.

[@f.dt.f3965]

cool tx ... looked like great fun good scenery except for the smoke

[@bigcity2085]

Wow...great episode.

[@tompinnef6331]

Glad you had a good trip. Nothing like young love - been married 45 years now. Never lose that feeling and enjoy each and every moment. take care Spin

[@hawkdsl]

So sad how much fire there is. It feels like there are fewer days ahead then behind sometimes. Great vid.

[@kevinsavas7173]

Man that smoke was crazy looking. Loved this series.

[@MarkHolliway]

Awesome video Jonas and Friends.

[@waynetaylor121]

You guys are AWESOME.....👍

[@matthewjob9424]

Another quality video well done Jonas, I also watched the Trent version of this trip. great shots editing and even choice of music. These videos make me want to get my license buy a Kitfox or Carbon Cub start filming with my middle age face for radio!

[@jettmag]

loving the vids!!!

[@lmartinez3633]

Nice trip, beautiful places, nice airstrips, need to improve your Capella, nice ending with Mrs S waiting for you...

[@av8ir68]

Jonas, Loved the video!! I live in western Oregon near the Holiday Farm Fire and had to travel daily hauling fuel down past the Archie Creek Fire.. That being said, the smoke was the worst I have seen around here, but I would have to imagine a good portion of the smoke you had in Idaho was courtesy of us here in Oregon.. Glad you were safe in your adventures with Trent and Ty!! When are you going to start getting your new plane built??

[@lukehollingsworth2621]

Never seen your channel before but so glad I did this looks like so much fun! (Subscribed)

[@79-airtime]

Was working with this playing in the background and was thinking to myself 'that sounds just like a BN-2B Islander...' I grew up with those things taking us in and out of what was at that time the world's shortest commercial airfield at Out Skerries in the Shetland Islands, Scotland. Great to see one stateside.

[@johnfitzpatrick2469]

Good stuff Jonas, that was a really good short film. + love the sub artesian hot spring. Get a sample of the H2O next time take it to a pool chemical shop for Spintouch analysis. Depending on the results: "might be good for skin or ingestion". + I don't think it's best oractice to wear " flip flops" on that terrain. Say G, day to Trent, fly safe and have fun.🇦🇺🍩

[@towcub]

Steve’s Waco! Beautiful machine.

[@minitrundle]

13:48 BN Islander. Beautiful sounding aircraft. I've flown in a Trislander which has a 3rd engine mounted on the tail. Very noisy but very cool!

[@julesteban]

Wow excelente Video, y muy bellos paisajes. Arriba los Aviones Experimentales !!! Wow a video excelent, and very nice view. Up Expeimental Aircraft !!

[@climbingnerd]

thanks for not showing the hot springs at Johnson creek...that place is sweet! You need to check it out the next time and play golf in yellow pine. Classic Idaho

[@vincentmolloy5660]

Great footage of you guys bud. You need to fix that cooling issue bro.

[@WolfPilot]

Sweet video Jonas! I loved the scenery and your adventures along the way. There is something really funny when aviation youtubers film each other. I really hope you can make the 2021 ACCA at 1K1 next year! I really want to fly with you!

[@JodelFlyer]

Enjoyed the mini series Jonas. Looked like great fun (apart from the smoke bits) It's what fun flying is all about and capped off with a nice welcome back from Silvija. 😎👍🇬🇧Tim

[@nicolaspoggio5095]

Jonas i really love how you edit your videos and the music you put in.. awesome work as always!! You are living my dream life man haha cool!! Can't wait to try making videos like yours but flying a piper pa-11!! A big hug from Argentina

[@RustyCoon]

Great Video Jonas! Looked like a great adventure. 😎

[@brianb6603]

Excellent as usual!!!

[@ronboe6325]

Last time I saw a Bolens snowmobile was back in Montana in the mid '60's. That old Ski Do is of a similar vintage.

[@rumbear1]

Good stuff! Keep it sketchy!

[@vermontaviator1248]

Epic life you boys are living...

[@Chicomacheeno]

The smoke was stupid thick this Summer. Cool vid tho!

Nice video, greethings from Remi, Belgium

This look like soo much fun !!!

[@NickKelleyShelleyID]

Straight Epic man. So cool.

[@Wild_Bill57]

1. Ah 1987 when I was.....30 2. ”This is the best part of the trip.” Yeah, NS!

[@robertstonejr1000]

Jason saved the best until last, but that's OK . . . . It was returning home to Silvija. Don't worry, the first 19 minutes are amazing as usual, the last 60 seconds the BEST!

[@johnreed8872]

Jonás... Thanks , Great scenery , content and editing ! What other countries in the world allow and provide this type of opportunities ? We are truly blessed ! I'll wager that your overheating has more to do with your baffling than the cooler , wanna bet?? Thanks again... Blue Skies!

[@JonasMarcinko]

Thanks! This one took forever to edit :/ . I'll take that bet! I already changed the oil cooler to a larger one and it stays cool now. What are we going to bet? :)

[@johnreed8872]

@@JonasMarcinko dinner for you and Silvija.. I'm in SE Ohio , come and get it ! Cory was here a little while ago , just a short hop from you! Glad you got your problem resolved..

[@JonasMarcinko]

John Reed haha awesome. We might have to postpone it to the stiletto airpark when we come visit?

[@johnreed8872]

I'm thoroughly retired!! Eat, sleep, travel etc.whenever I please. It's freaking awesome! Let us know when and where and I will seriously buy dinner! In the meantime be cool , be safe! Blue Skies!

[@БытьИлиНеБыть-ю2и]

You guys seem to be truly blessed with opportunities, but Russia does allow and provide some of this backcountry flying too. Take that from someone who had a 7000+km trip in a rotax twoseater here this year. We had our part of mountains, camp sites, wild sceneries, improvised landings and complicated visibility too. Anyways, thanks for inspiring videos from across the pond. Fly safe.

I own the RC freedom fox from flitetest, its great to see so much of Trent's plane in your videos. See ya in the trees Cessna 185

[@vanwest4198]

Thanks, Great video, AND thanks for keeping the secret spot secret!

[@hanshekkerace]

Hi Jonas, like the Capella. Only thing that looks uncomfortable is the position and movement of the flap handle. Any urge to relocate it?

[@JonasMarcinko]

Yeah I have definitely thought about it! Possibly will in the future

[@drreason2927]

Great One Wheel add. What brand do you guys have?

[@wynnfpv]

Man glad you got back in all that smoke. I hardly could see on the video.. lol great one man!

Love the last scene......

you guys should come to Colorado sometime, of course after the wildfires and fixing the Capella.

Such a cool video

[@mpillor1]

You are rockin it

[@Cmoredebris]

We were headed there on the same day from Hamilton, MT, but decided not to deal with the smoke and the TFR nearby. 3U2 is great and the hike to the hot tub is rewarding.
