Las Vegas Strip to Billings, Montana....Private jet ride along

[@capncrunch9313]

The simplicity of your vids make them unbelievably enjoyable and educational to anyone involved in aviation. I always have believed that less is more and it’s shown here under my beliefs.

[@bensleeper4731]

the speeding up the cruise part as opposed to just cutting and it and skipping it is a big improvement. gives ya the whole spectrum of the flight. well done p1d.

[@cbdsw]

I am loving the cabin noise. The shots of the desert are amazing. As always thanks for taking us along!!

[@flightcraft0362]

390GM engine starts! music to my ears! perfect radio eticate and execution! inspirational !

[@nothereorthereoranywhere]

Billings, my hometown! Bob Hope once said when he played there in 1989, Billings, the only place with an airport that you land at and then parachute into town! I made that same approach many times. Thanks

[@videopokernetwork6824]

Always a pleasure flyin' along with you. Thank you for the superb videos.

[@bruceerwin2541]

Lol. You have me watching an oldie, Greg, but totally worthwhile with your great snowy mountain scenery shots. Thanks for sharing.

[@jonr2329]

Very cool flight sir, thank you for taking us on the ride.

[@kristenlafollette5627]

I love the information with this one. An inquisitive passenger made this one really super interesting and informative. I would try to absorb everything I could as a passenger. Well done!

[@ronmoore5827]

I like the engine noise, reminds me of my days as as an Army helicopter mechanic. Always loved hearing the engine spin up and light off.

[@kingwillie1145]

Yea, reminds me of being in Vietnam.

[@malcolmhopkins9196]

I like the beat at the beginning. It had me bobbing my head.

[@robertmaza4272]

Another Great video! Love the longer ones specially when you have someone in the right seat! Enjoy your weekend!!!

[@ericmitchell3326]

I finally got my zoom to work and loved watching the turns you made right to get to what I thought would be 50 degrees but turned out 43. I love these videos.

[@rickcastillo7437]

Nice flight, thanks.

[@SuperDave21]

Awesome flight and scenery Greg, thanks for taking us along! Cheers. Happy Memorial Day.

[@broadwayblues]

your video production just keeps getting better and better. Great job. I was MXS when I was in the USAF, always dreamed of being a pilot. Thanks so much for your service!

[@Charles53412]

ATC did say Right turn 3. I had to go back and look after you mentioned it. He even confirmed your read back. Loving the Videos ! I've been re-watching from the oldest to close to date. Hope to see more soon ! Stay Safe !!

[@SmittySmithsonite]

Just wanted to say THANK YOU for the excellent t-shirts - they arrived last night. I was also pleasantly surprised by the 2 pictures - especially the autographed one! Thank you, Greg!! Awesome! 👍👍

[@charles17121]

As always no one does it better ! Smooth landing . Clear Skies and Smooth Landings !

[@chriswalters8110]

Greg , I think you spoke for all of us on the challenger comment! Liked the background noise and the pre flight. Another great video!

[@Airflores322]

Love the videos Captain 😉. Thank you

[@bookooc5605]

I am late to the party, but I have watched maybe 20 videos in the last 10 days. I have a monkey on my back! Addictive! As a serious amateur photographer and videographer, I really appreciate how dramatically your cinematography skills have improved . Love the sound of the engine startup from the cockpit. Nice job, another great video.

[@ernestbrumage8590]

Thanks for the great flight to Billings, Mike! I used to truck thru there 3 or 4 times a month going to or from the Northwest. After the first couple of trips across Montana, it quickly became my most favorite state and I've been bugging my wife to move there for the past 15 years, without any success!! BTW, the records show that I watched this video 3 weeks ago, but for the life of me, I cannot remember it at all!! I must have watched it in my sleep! Regards, Ernie

[@BlazinMonk]

That opening clip I thought you were in plane and I screamed "Too close!!"

[@joeg5414]

I did the same thing lol

[@mikeshort5516]

Always enjoy your videos Greg. Scenery was choice. Thanks again for sharing your flight with us!

[@ScottTHuntREG]

I am hopelessly hooked on your videos! Best thing on KZbin!

[@4randosutube]

Nice flight Greg. I flew through KLAS yesterday. Thanks for uploading.

[@kevinrblodgett]

Great video as always. Despite the echoing audio it was fantastic to hear more of the ambient sounds, engines especially. I liked the silent time-lapse in the middle, it's a great way to see the flight with no/minimal editing required. Keep up the good work!

[@gregmink]

Yeah, the audio was a bit of a mess on this one.

[@davidblassingame1084]

Big fan of premeir golf 1 Keep up the good work praying for you

[@Charles77598]

Nice flying. Thanks for bringing me along!

[@tedakins7294]

Another great one. Seems to have more plane noise than previous ones.

[@pbbrown1963]

Boy, the was fun! I sure wish I had the resources for even a piston single. Just dreamin'. Thanks, Mr. Mink!

[@gunnerbrennan9091]

instaBlaster

[@myckee]

Have a wonderful Memorial day weekend. Thanks for the great video.

[@Cheeto80]

I love how you “goosed it” a little extra as you made your right turn on 12 Lol. I’d done the same thing! Hahahaha! Another great video Greg! Thank you!

[@bradneilly]

The bump music up front is on point. Another great video.

[@mariof9103]

Great video. Thank you for taking us along.

[@kaiserman6667]

Your videos are mesmerizing. So glad I found your channel.

[@retcdnmilengr]

Great Video! Have watched all of yours... amazing footage, Keep up the great work!

[@dougweston1538]

Douglas Zwicker iiiiii

[@RodneyBrown]

Amazing flight and I totally enjoyed it!

[@ahedin]

Keep them coming....Love seeing new videos of your adventures.

[@100pyatt]

The sound on startup 😍😍👌

[@Jacklangefeld]

Flown into KBIL many times heading to KSHR (Sheridan, WY) on Great Lakes Airlines. Billings is always easy to spot because of the rim rock around the city. Another great flight!

[@PhilsProjects]

Let me tell you something about your shirts Greg. I bought 2 golf shirts, one for my brother who owns a 182 and one for myself. I wore mine today for the first time , super comfortable and premium quality. I get a sms message from my brother today at lunch telling me he had worn his today for the first time and he included a picture of his newly acquired IFR endorsement in the message. He thanked me for giving him your shirt as it brought him luck. He had been trying to do his check ride since December. weather, winter, the planes Annual, examiner not available, everything prevented him from getting his check ride till the day we both wore your shirt. I think that the shirts are now our lucky flying shirts. Oh great video as always.

[@gregmink]

Thanks for sharing this! I'm thinking I should raise the prices after reading your comments. You think I should advertise that wearing the shirt guarantees passing the checkride?

[@PhilsProjects]

Premier 1 Driver lol what’s the cut on sales increases?

[@bensleeper4731]

P1D, never fails to surpass expectations. awesome vid!

[@mohomustard7828]

Looks like P1D has 2 Sleeper fans.

[@bensleeper4731]

ha. thats awesome. my brothers name is matt as well.

[@jackwagonjay]

Thank you for your service and have a great memorial day!!!

[@gregmink]

Thanks! You as well!

[@garyggarner7738]

Thanks Greg for another Great Video!

[@FlyMeAirplane]

Great video as always!

[@JamesMr90]

That was a big workload just after takeoff. Nicely handled!

[@briansutherland9457]

Nice flight luv the mountains

[@seanpatrickfox]

Thanks for your videos, i'm learning a lot (especially talking to ATC).

[@HenrySousa-n2c]

......Very cool,..5 year old video,..best of the Best, thank you my friend for a flight into the past... ...Artist, Old Naples Beach🌴🎨

[@valeriesimpson2001]

Oh my goodness. I've had a pretty tough week & getting ready for alittle r & r this weekend & got a notification of another P1D VIDEO. As always, got ( a small ) glass of wine & just chilled w/ you to Billings. Thanks Greg! God Bless you & your family. Vicariously, Val

[@tpittockful]

Thank you for another awesome experience. I get to fly on the 5th SWA TPA>LGA then a nice cruise for 8 days.

[@bodriver9719]

Another great one Greg! Keep em coming.

[@FreedomfromFeminism]

When flying over those beautiful, majestic mountain ranges, I wonder if Greg ever thinks about nosing down, increasing to maximum dive speed, levelling out at 500' into one of those pine-coated valley walls and just cruising through the landscape, banking and bopping, then pulling a 3G climb to clear the treetops by 100'? I know I do.

[@RobErt-zu4zs]

Awesome views of Vegas

[@louisdesienaministries6828]

I love the greatest of flight. We take it for granted but it is an amazing achievement.

[@jamesharmon3503]

I've got to be honest don't know how I found you and I wasn't planning on watching the entire video but I have to tell you this I'd great. I love anything related to aviation and since I am a license and jet short of doing this myself this is the next best thing. And you just picked up a new subscriber. God bless.

[@gregmink]

Welcome aboard James!

[@toddhogan7311]

As always great video @ Premier1Driver!

[@BeechSportBill]

...analyzing the route you can use, vs. the route I would use in my Cessna 182P - 12,500 or lower - NICE to be at FL390!

[@jamestroy9625]

Oops, I turned on wrong road. Not a pilot but this is amazing. A lot a mumbo jumbo to understand, I like it. Keep up the videos mike, I am enjoying flying with you. Go to Billings, My old stomping grounds.

[@nemo227]

Until you were lined up on 12R it appeared they were going to make you taxi to Billings. It reminded me of the time we were moving around the taxiways at LAX and the pilot got on the speakers to reassure us that we were NOT going to taxi all the way to San Diego. Some airports have miles and miles of taxiways.

[@OGDonothello613]

That Vegas airport parking lot was full of billionaires jets and planes.... reminded me of Wal-mart

[@trevormcgowan2232]

Excellent real life flight experience.

[@danriessen8365]

Hey Greg, Another great video, BTW your videos have given me the bug again working on my IFR ticket. Been over a year. Life sometimes gets in the way LoL... thanks for the T-shirts and personal touch pictures are in the man cave.

[@gregmink]

That is great Dan! I am glad you are picking it back up. The Instrument ticket is the best one to get.

[@ernestbrumage8590]

Another nice flight, P1 Driver!! Also saw some beautiful scenery as well. Thanks. Regards, Ernie

[@herbh9348]

Another great video Greg...always enjoy them.

[@8433able]

That is such a user friendly A/C What a joy to Fly I guess Let me know when you come to OKC or Norman

[@kj3rd2657]

Thank You Very Much for your good video. I fly your type of jet on my FSX game and your video has help me to play better. In my real life, I was planning to get my flying Lic's back in my younger days, but I think it's to late for me now. So I fly on my simulation game.

[@jackbego6571]

Great and very informative. Video - thank you.

[@billbargar2284]

Outstanding VLOG Greg, I think you found an additional profession if the medical devices can take care of themselves. LOL . You and the premier can get into aerial film making full time.

[@gregmink]

I like the footage on this one as well.

[@jmdenali]

Used to put Real Estate magazines at the Edwards terminal, knew that you guys would end up there. Longing to go back to Montana soon. In Florida now with 20 million others and terrible traffic!

[@YYChinook]

Great flight, thanks

[@jamesfarnham1976]

P1D found you through Stevo1 and maybe take a cue from his videos. I mean really 1:15 minutes of like watching paint dry. Most exciting thing is when you missed Delta exit. Love the jet experience but could you talk to us a little more. Just my thoughts. Thank you for your service and have a great weekend!

[@SkippyRo]

If single pilot turboprop dreams would come true, those Pilatus PC12 NGs on the ramp are pretty nice.

[@ahmadsamadzai8255]

Yasssssss. Perfect timing.

[@MrLikeke]

PD1, of the sequence from 23:48 to 24:15 the aircraft is rolling out from a right turn then appears to correct back to the left. This would indicate that the FD overshot the heading. Is this a sign of degradation of the system, a need for calibration? Another great video! Count me as another who likes to hear the engine spool up.

[@gregmink]

It was actually intercepting a course....so it wouldn't be totally atypical for it to make a correction once it rolls out. Always amazes me how closely the viewers watch the videos. Very perceptive!

[@aviationworld3858]

What an awesome vidoe Stevo !! We really enjoyed the ride!!p

[@gregmink]

Steveo flies a TBM...not a Premier.

[@cq7415]

Thanks for sharing.

[@donb4301]

I can't count the times I flew (rode) from GCN to VGT with the air tour companies in years past. As a resident of GCN they would let us fly to VGT on the deadhead leg for free or just a few dollars. You can definitely put on some miles taxiing around VGT. I love the scenery in that part of the west.

[@vhpilot66]

I wish I could smash that like button a bunch of times!

[@williegillie5712]

All them runways and taxi ways to follow. I'm surprised ya didn't see Harrison Ford somewhere along the way.

[@bmearnhardt]

Or landing on you while your taxing on the taxiway.

[@TheFroztv]

Best comment ! LMAO !

[@jonathanhankins8356]

Harrison doesn't have time for taxiways... he just picks the closest paved surface to where he wants to park his plane and goes for it.

[@mobtek]

Is that the China Wall at 49:51 to the center right?

[@mrfantastic407]

I do miss them desert skies...

[@aaroncasher6249]

Awesome intro instrumental.

[@deibertmichael]

Remember when it was a few block downtown and a few Hotels on the Strip!

[@glider1232]

The sky is bigger in Montana, isn't it?

[@stnickwoods]

I have the same iPad without the Beechcraft flying case.

[@gregmink]

Great comment! You deserve some P1D swag for that one. Direct message me with your shirt size and mailing address. That is some funny stuff!

[@str8line1948]

I have the same ipad w/o the Beechcraft Premier 1A !!! LOL

[@kaiserman6667]

Baaaaaaahahahahaha! Well played Sir

[@mikek821]

Have a Log Cabin in Trout Creek, MT, fly into Thompson Falls

[@edk4590]

A lot of nice looking aircraft there at Vegas.

[@sqvision]

Great video again Greg. That VGT taxi-out was.... well let's call it a little complicated :-). A rwy 12L departure, intersection A departure @12R or backtrack 12R from A and 180 on the runway to keep that meridian behind were all three no options?

[@gregmink]

Not sure why it happened that way but it was complicated for sure.

[@z33511]

Another P1D video... excellent!

[@BenNstyle]

"Faster because I'm hungry" ☑️

[@cirruscapo]

You were an AF pilot, correct??? I was stationed at Nellis AFB Area II for three years from Nov 82-Nov 85... I loved it and I don't even gamble, the Vegas... And now my Parents retired there a few years ago... did I mention that I love Vegas...

[@gregmink]

Yes I was.

[@CanuckFlyer]

Best burger in the world at "Burger Dive" in Billings. Great video!

[@moneylab2860]

Another great video, Greg. Would have loved to know where you were over the Rockies at the 46 min mark

[@gregmink]

Me too. LOL.

[@nowayoutstp4]

Learned to fly in Billings/Laurel.

[@andrewbrenneman563]

C Carr was it RMC? That’s where I’m going this fall

[@terryandrews6825]

Good video and insight.

[@stevenb887]

You know, everytime I go past KTYQ I'm looking for your jet. Haven't been fortunate enough to see it :(

[@ghettobirdie]

Well sir that looks like KVGT. That was my place of work for 13 years. The big hanger in the north east end of the field by the tower. If I wasn't retired i would has been there and had a chance to meet you. Maybe ramp check you just to get a chance to say hello.
