Locked the Airplane Keys in the Car

Even the simplest adventures make you think about the impossible. What if this? What if that? On this day, we flew to see friends in Naples, FL and rented a car. Zoe had a concern that I just couldn't shake off.

Hello Niko's Wings from Sydney Australia. Thankyou for your latest channel video. * The SR-22 v1 77 knots. * Very pleasant night flying over the city lights. Community *Hopefully controlling Covid -19 is not as stressful in your area as time moves on. Take care 🌏🇦🇺

[@tyg1434]

Ever think about flying to the Caribbean

[@NikosWings]

I have done it a few times

[@Klaatu-ij9uz]

[@itstabish]

That title is a little clickbaity but the video is NOICE!

[@milk-it]

I can't think of another KZbinr who favourites almost all of his fans' comments. Such a humble and friendly guy. Great to see you and your family back in the air, Niko!

[@sketchy74]

Well said, I could not agree more.

[@lmartinez3633]

Very nice family adventure…

[@rodandanner2132]

Glad to see my favorite aviation pilot back in the air. Missed you Niko.

[@ericm333]

Always GREAT to see ya NIKO. Love the soundtrack. I have OSCAAAR!! 😅

[@bigphoto1]

Glad to see your flying again, seems like its been a bit...

[@alessio272]

F that Naples airport with their noise abatement. At SPG there’s a new cirrus G6 I think . They charge $375/hr after 90 days the rate will go up over $400/hr. I never owned a cirrus but do you think that price is over charging or is that consistent with an owners operating cost? This plane is turbo with normalizer.

[@NikosWings]

$400-$500/hr is what I would charge to rent my airplane.

[@johnkeim3836]

Niko, FYI you may want to keep an eye out for an accident report on an SR 22T, that crashed yesterday 6/21 near Jackson Tn. The early report said mechanical. Pilot trying to land the plane didn’t make the field Hit trees.

[@NikosWings]

He should had pulled the chute

[@classicraceruk1337]

Nice trip Nico shows how great it is to fly and meet up with friends. For days like that it’s the only way to travel.

[@johndamico9976]

Let's go flying! Really!

[@alanduboyce5779]

Niko Where have You been this Summer? Missing Your Videos Bro!!!

[@NikosWings]

Vacation…

[@vanallen9453]

...it's another good day..when Niko puts on his Wings ...thanks for sharing

[@mikercflyer7383]

Still wearing a mask means the video was taken a while back. Ever see premier1driver in Naples?

[@NikosWings]

Haven’t seen him yet. Yes it was a few months ago before vaccines 💉

[@andya8898]

I highly recommend you take some binoculars with you next time you're in the air, I'm sure your daughter would love it!

[@NikosWings]

Hmmm great idea. I have a set on the boat… mostly unused…

[@wingandaprayer935]

Wonderful vid, as always. Thanks for taking us along with you and your beautiful family. Happy Father's Day to you, Niko, and to all the great Dad's here!

[@seamusmcmahon3606]

Love the authenticity, I did my Cirrus transition out of Opa Locka (shout out to Gold Standard Aviation) and as a SoCal PPL, clouds were a novelty. Your channel helped prepare me.

[@mfg587]

LOlL, oh bother.

[@josecastillo991]

Garage GOALS !!! Welcome Back Niko , We Missed You!

[@deandrehenderson7560]

[@lukew4955]

2 hours of multi IFR sim this morning, and now a wonderful video to enjoy with lunch. Missed the vids glad to see a new one

[@wildlifesnapper1]

I watch many pilots vlogs but I have to say that being with you is simply the best, you make my day, my week and my month. Stay well out there & thanks for posting as I know you lead a very busy life. What's with the Christmas tree at Naples airport though?

[@NikosWings]

Busy life as you said, work work work and family. This was filmed on New Year’s Day 2021 but I tried hard to get rid of any evidence of that but the xmas tree was missed. Good catch

[@wildlifesnapper1]

@@NikosWings That explains it then as your weather gave no clue of it being December. I thought the tree was some special promotion or something similar Either way, I enjoyed watching and I'm glad you are busy but also pleased you posted another vlog. Stay well, regards to you all.

[@terencecottington4273]

Like some other peps on here, I was worried you had left us. So nice to see and your family again Niko.

[@Sw00p77]

Love your videos! May i ask what you do for a living?

[@billnicholson2470]

Thanks Niko. Love your shirt. Looked like an airline officers shirt with the stripes on the shoulders. PIC lol.

[@aeroringordmngr8739]

Welcome to my neck of the woods. That ramp was actually quiet compared to season. Hope you enjoyed KAPF

[@medic1120]

It’s good to see you flying niko! And better yet... a day with the family..... good video!

[@rocky_williams]

Niko, your editing and music, plus your B roll is on point. You have mastered the skill of telling the story with visual illustrations. Fantastic.

[@titomirinda]

Wow! Mucho tiempo sin ver tus videos! Que bueno que tanto tú como tu familia están bien. Bienvenido Nuevamente!

[@zeberdee1972]

Cool video as always , would have been funny if you had the keys to that rather fine rental car still in the plane at the end . Still as nice as it is i suppose you have to hand it back at some point .

[@myspaishot]

Nice to see you back with great content! Thanks for thee time and effort involved in posting.

[@003rog]

Great to see you and the fam back in the air Niko! Looks like you had big fun.

[@trryhin]

[@chriholt]

Great to see you and the family again. Man, Zoe is growing up!

[@kenbryant2570]

Good to see you back at it Niko... and thank you for taking us along on your flights.

[@ttjclz]

Beautiful video, thank you…!

[@barrydraper]

Nice little day trip. You were practically in my back yard. Looks like your lunch may have been along the Fifth Ave to 3rd Street vicinity. You should have checked out the extremely white sand beaches, with just a short walk to Naples Pier.

[@NikosWings]

You got that right

[@MichaelLloyd]

Good to see you posting again Nikko. Looks like a fun trip.

[@jameshyatte7230]

Benn having withdrawals, so glad to see your videos.

[@bruceharper8149]

You are part of a gorgeous family Niko.
