Congrats on surviving the absolute hellhole that is Riddle traffic 🎉

[@LeppAviation]

Gimme the T-Shirt 😤

[@eveethegay]

It’s only bad from 11-3 when there are 20 planes stacked up with 10 on the ground

[@BeauInPDX]

All the Riddle callsigns brought me back to flight school there, talk about barely controlled chaos. ATC was always on top of things though.

I've been looking for more aviation content like this. Glad I found ya!

[@LeppAviation]

Thanks a ton, Josh!

[@ohwell2790]

Likes the split screen on approach, gives a great view for orientation on the screen. Thanks

[@Mattblackaviation787]

Love the videos!!

[@jonahair747]

Great video, brother! I definitely get some Steveo vibes with your videos! I love it. I’m proud to see how far you have come since we met through KZbin - Hopefully one day we can get together and catch up! Keep up the amazing work and safe flying!!

[@LeppAviation]

Aye I really appreciate that brother! It’s been one helluva ride man, we definitely will catch up soon! Gotta get you, me, and Dom back together and recreate old times 😎 Thanks for the support man!

Wow, so that is what it looks like when you can get airborne before the crossing runway. I’ve flown out of PRC for the last 14 years. And never have I ever been airborne before that runway. I’ve always seen the golfers clapping and raising their drivers as we go overhead.

[@LeppAviation]

Gotta love the high density altitude 😅

[@kevinkauffman248]

That one was based at my home field (LOZ) many years ago, he was a good friend that got my dad into a M350, and now dad has moved onto his second M600. Good airplane.

[@LeppAviation]

No kidding! That's awesome, small world! I have a few hours in the M600. Hell of a bird!

[@willschmidt7366]

I would trust you flying my family! You are very meticulous! Appreciate your intention to every detail and the four screen view on final approach.

[@LeppAviation]

Thanks for the kind words my friend! That means a lot.

[@jameswaters3939]

I'm a "Bear Down" Wildcat and notice the natives pronounce Prescott sounding like "press-kit". Have a nice flight surely applied as true for this one!

[@LeppAviation]

I’ve only been a resident of AZ for about a year and a half actually! 😂 I’m a Michigan native, but we have our fair share of towns that people don’t pronounce correctly, so I guess that’s me trying my best to not screw it up lol.

[@jameswaters3939]

@@LeppAviation Hah! Well, I now live in WA State where there are many places that are easily mispronounced. I'm a native Michigander and there is an Arizona/Michigan/Washington connection, IMO. I flew in Miami before KTUS, and then the big kahuna - LAX.

[@LeppAviation]

@@jameswaters3939 Ha! Small world, I love it! Should let me know whenever you’re out in AZ again

[@federicoguevaraavalos515]

Nice

[@saldun2603]

No Doubt proficiency Onward to more!

[@cqnnqn]

I've flown there. New sub here!

[@LeppAviation]

Thanks for watching man!

[@SMcda]

Owner needs to get the new pilot side window installed. Those little opening windows are an issue with pressurization.

[@speedonsteel]

Typical day at KPRC

[@PedroLocks]

will you post another video about the phenom 100 ferry flight?

[@LeppAviation]

That was unfortunately the only episode in that series 😅 More to come soon though!

[@cito1101]

Any idea when International Airport plane spotting will return??

[@LeppAviation]

Plane Spotting content is coming very soon 😎

[@dusty_five_2]

🍻

[@ChazToz]

Mirage or Malibu? Mirage in title and @:43 on the aircraft and during video introduction, yet most radio calls were “Malibu”. I am confused.

[@LeppAviation]

The airplane is considered the Malibu/Mirage. Same airframe, just modernized. Malibu rolls off the tongue better in radio calls

[@FlyingNDriving]

Why not lean on the ground?

[@Avgeek0926]

Take me as a SIC :(

[@danizweifler6061]

are you sitting in a Mirage oder in a Malibu ?...............................(listen to ATC and your own voice)

[@LeppAviation]

It’s considered a Malibu/Mirage. Same airframe, just updated over time. I just think Malibu rolls off the tongue a little better in ATC calls
