My First Hawker Video! - Pilot VLOG 127

[@gregmink]

Love it Shaun....Max is a great guy! And his videos are top notch. Looking forward to a lunch date sometime soon!

[@KutWrite]

Cool how you guys get to know one another.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Definitely...

[@THELIFEOFPRICE]

Nice video!

[@TonyHarrisonPhotography]

Loves th ram horn control column

[@luiscortez1780]

That's my Lear 60! Grey Lear 3RR, 27:25

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Nice bird!

[@JoeSmith-nu8oo]

It's just not the same as watching when you and John flew together :{ but life is about change and moving on.

[@chaz921dren8]

@Corporate Pilot Life some kind of water drop from presumed ceiling 11:34 no bs which makes me wonder if you or the plane is sweating it out. Seriously there was a water drop!

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Yeah...the window surround freezes in cruise, then melts on the descent and drips on us a little bit. Most airplanes I've flown do this to some degree.

[@chaz921dren8]

Many windows have a heating system built in the glass section, so why not heat atleast the exterior of the frame of the window so outside temps don’t interfere? Maybe you could even do a tech day episode on the construction of windows and a small explanation about what caused, and perhaps why the manufacturers allow the water to be a factor in the cabin

[@jamesmarshall3311]

Brought back memories of flying into Boston for 18 years and right over ``Southie`` as its called on last seconds of final approach `. I lived there and loved the Ocean walk around Castle Island. Nice also to see those two Aer Lingus A330`s in striking Kelly green livery as you were parking at 24.20. They ferried me back and forth until my final retirement flight in 2011 back to home in Dublin.

[@truckinglgb]

Nice landing and great video looked like you got just a little of the wake turbulence off the airbus

[@CorporatePilotLife]

yeah...just a little bump

[@pilot9596]

Hey corporate guy! Do you ever see the white cape air 402 around Logan? That's me! Haha I'm sure I've seen you land there before!! Cheers!

[@yellowdeer7163]

When the lights went out on the instrument panel was interesting. Shaun " Oh! "

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Yeah...that was fun for a second...LOL

[@edpippin]

Great.video, really busy approach with ATC. Glad you are now able to fly both aircraft hopefully a little flexibility with your home schedule not having to relocate as much.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

yes indeed!

[@niceguy2171]

Nice to see this, and that busy airspace around there is always a trip to fly into. Must admit it's weird seeing you in the Hawker, but wish there was a outside the cockpit view going forward, but imagine camera room is limited in that one, along with the situation of being with a new copilot. Don't know much about the Hawker cockpit though.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

camera mounting was a challenge in the Hawker, but I'm still working on some better options for camera angles

[@dabuya]

That final approach was intense! Great video, Shaun.

[@Gemashke]

AWESOME video!! You got the Hawker Jet in your set of tools now. Congratulations, Shaun!!

[@dsrduff]

Love to see the taxi parking!

[@funkengruven7773]

Another awesome video Sean! I'd like to hear your thoughts on the differences between flying the G4 vs. the Hawker and the pros & cons of each...maybe a topic for a future "Tech Tuesday/VLOG" discussion. Also, Grab us a shot of the outside of the Hawker so we can see that sweet jet up close. Any vids on the compartments, interior, APU, avionics bay, etc., would be awesome. I saw the vid you did on the APU controls/interface, but it would be cool to see the actual installation. Also, is the guy you're flying with now a company check pilot? Will you be left seat going forward, or are you still in the "check-out" phase on the Hawker and you'll go back to right seat once the "check-out" process is complete? Just wondering what to expect going forward in the Hawker. Once again; awesome video!

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Those are great ideas that I will definitely be using over the next several weeks. Thank you! They guy I was flying with is the Chief Pilot for Alerion...just worked out that I was with him though. I will be flying from both seats just like in the Gulfstream. Right now, we are pretty heavy on Captains, so it's very normal to have both pilots be captains but only one be assigned as PIC for that trip. Either way, it's pretty normal to have the pilots sway seats each leg or perhaps each day, so you'll see me in both seats going forward.

[@flygy481]

Looked like a beautiful morning to fly! Enjoyed the camera angle, wouldn’t mind seeing the same when sitting in the right seat. Blue skies...

[@CorporatePilotLife]

I think I can make that happen...thank you!

[@nathandburton]

Nice to see citationmax!

[@joep1535]

nice view of Blue Hills turning final then the Gas tank in Dorchester lining up for 4L. Nice flight Shaun.

[@johnfallon6828]

Great to back in Bahston! Go Bruins!

[@freedomrider30]

A+ Shaun!!! Thanks!!! 👍👍👍

[@jerrykorman7770]

Very nice. Awwww you have a new friend

[@graysono]

Even with sunnies the look on your face at 19:45 when everything went black was art! "Please don't do that again!" Bloody instructors! Do all planes use the same voice for RADALT calls??? Even the British?!

[@jerrykorman7770]

That was funny and I hope Shaun has that trick pulled again. Honeywell seems to have the market on EGPWS, even with a Collins Pro Line 21 aircraft

[@scotty11782]

Thanks

[@davidharris2519]

the yokes are a lot different than on the gulfstream and it looks cramped but that maybe the camera

[@CorporatePilotLife]

It is tighter than the Gulfstream, but the camera angle makes it look worse than it really is

[@smartycummins2500]

Looks like you’re having fun in a Hawker!

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Oh yeah...

[@michaelburke750]

Need to add the display lighting test to the landing check list to avoid future surprises... 😉😂

[@CorporatePilotLife]

HAHA! I was looking outside when he hit that and I just saw out of the corner of my eyes all screens went black....that was fun. LOL

[@bernardanderson7569]

Great flying by the both of you Gentleman

[@scottmajor2620]

Yes! More Hawker vids, please.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

More to come...

[@keithnelson6389]

Busy, Busy ,Busy, around Boston!

[@richschindler8731]

See, when you fly the smaller planes, you get to park right up front. It’s good to see the Hawker again, I miss flying them. Then again, being retired, I miss flying everything . LOL

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Is that how it works?!? I don't like that rule. LOL

[@jimmykosko]

That was some serious flying. Any chance we get to see the outside of the aircraft...maybe a tour of everything. You make it look so easy and yet it’s not.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Yep...that is planned for a video very soon

[@briancraigkennedy3153]

Textbook flight! Great job Shaun!

[@bernardanderson7569]

Stay calm and fly the aircraft and this is what it's all about listening and answers with ATC communication

[@TOMAS-lh4er]

AGAIN! SHAWN!! THANK YOU , for letting this old tow trk. driver see Earth in ways Id never see in my life time except for you and your friends !! BLESSED Memorial Day, if you have anyone you are remembering, thanks THOMAS in TUCSON

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Thank you! Have a great Memorial Day as well!!

[@ghosty426]

More vids of outside the plane...what a Hawker looks like.. and some of the good looking, uptight cabin wenches. Other than that, nice video.

[@randyeno2525]

Nice job! Good video. Would like to encourage you to add comments in future Hawker videos with your impressions on transitioning back into that jet, etc. It’s instructional and entertaining to see how you are approaching and experiencing it! Thx!

[@CorporatePilotLife]

I definitely plan to do that. This video was more of a test to see how I liked the angles, then decided to let you guys see it anyhow. I'm glad to be back into the Hawker, and will get you guys more info in it very soon!

[@nilslindenblad9856]

So cool to see you in a new aircraft! You did a great job, going into a busy airport!! Happy landings.

[@iisubzeroii5538]

Very nice!

[@Jet-Pack]

19:43 LOL whooopsyy

[@DJ-nn6vg]

I would think Logan is a hassle for a corp jet and Hanscom is the preferred airport.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

It's not too bad...

[@N1120A]

Logan isn't a hassle, just very expensive.

LOL I thought when I heard you say "Follow Me Truck" that it was just some amusing nickname for a truck you followed. Didn't realize the truck has a sign that actually says "Follow Me" on it! (I'm not a pilot, as you can surmise)

[@CorporatePilotLife]

HAHA! The name is quite literal...

[@Danger.86]

Great video sir ! I’m sure it would be very difficult to try and catch but if at all possible could you try to get footage of the TKS in action ? You the man ! Cheers

[@CorporatePilotLife]

That one will be tough, but I'll see if I can figure out how to get it...

[@bermudazweieck]

Any planned international flights outside the US on schedule in the next weeks? Would really like to see some footage from europe again or south america etc.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Great to hear!

[@bigd-1-channel514]

Great, going to have to find some better camera angles though.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Yeah...the Hawker has been tough to mount the cameras without blocking our view

[@extrashot]

Hi Shaun... the camera out of the front was fantastic quality on this trip... is it a new one?

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Still the HERO 7 Black, but I'm using some different color grading in the post-processing. Glad to hear it looks good!

[@Xpyburnt_ndz]

Great vid Shaun! So good to see another flight! Hawker n G4 rated! Very cool! Have a great weekend!

Great job Shaun. Have a great Memorial Day weekend.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Thanks...you as well!

[@MrSnooooze]

Bit Busy there ...Nice one on the Switch long Final!!!

[@kaitsho]

Nice video. Interested to hear your thoughts on flying the Hawker?

[@CorporatePilotLife]

It is a great plane to fly. It doesn't operate terribly fast, but gets the mission done almost every time. It's a very mechanical plane, so not alot of electronics controlling things

[@kaitsho]

@@CorporatePilotLife thanks for responding Sean. I thought as much when watching you guys as it appears to be more 'hands on' and required higher level of human intervention. Interesting to hear your feedback. Appreciated.

[@donc9751]

Sweet Landing Shaun! That was CRAZY busy going in there and loosing the dash lights for a second there was excitement you didnt need at that moment lol. That controller seemed like he was trying to steer everyone into the same space at the same time on top of everything else! Great job!

[@torgeirbrandsnes1916]

Good job as always!

[@dougf94912]

The cockpit doesn't seem as camera friendly, it would be nice to see a central, over both pilots' shoulders view... Maui Jim owe you bigtime for some extreme product placement! 8-)

[@CorporatePilotLife]

The Hawker is certainly less camera friendly. I have some ideas of how to get the camera over our center shoulders though

[@johnfarr2738]

The Hawkers Cockpit looks smaller then the Gulfstream?

[@CAPFlyer]

Hey Shaun - Great video as always. We have a Hawker 800XP based here at my FBO (ex Travel Management bird) with the PL21, but I never remember to ask the crew, so I'll ask you - Does the Pro Line have a trend line for the speed to help the "Auto Throttle" judge power setting? I've always liked the Hawker (I also understand why many operators got rid of them) so it's cool to see you sharing flying in one for everyone!

[@CorporatePilotLife]

It does have the trend line...makes it easy for judging the throttle position. The Hawker is definitely a work horse of an airplane!

[@BFun]

Curious as to what falls through the frame at11:34?

[@CorporatePilotLife]

That would be a water drop. The top edge of the window builds up frost while in cruise, then melts on the descent and drips down a little bit. Most planes I've ever flown do that...Gulfstream as well

[@bernardanderson7569]

Shaun as of now you are typed rated in both jets which that is great

[@williegillie5712]

Turn left on 33 right then turn left. That would confuse the heck out of me. Nice greaser on the landing Shaun. How do ya like flying the Hawker? The auto pilot disconnect sounds a lot like greg’s premier.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

That one made me think too! I enjoy flying the Hawker...much lighter on the controls.

[@sgtdarkness1]

Doesn’t the Hawker use more fuel than the Gulfstream?

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Quite the opposite...the Gulfstream uses much more than the Hawker

[@PED1010]

Great first Hawker video Shaun, good taxiing skills !

[@alanhays3033]

Great vid (as usual)! Out of curiosity....do you more or less like the control yoke on the Hawker (bicycle style) vs. the more traditional yoke on the G4?

[@CorporatePilotLife]

I would say I am more used to the Gulfstream yoke, so that's probably my preference, but the Hawker Ramhorn yoke is quite comfortable as well. Just depends on what you're used to

[@larrymayberry2312]

Who need the instruments on landing ??? LOL. Great video as usual

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Right!?!

[@larrymayberry2312]

@@CorporatePilotLife If you guys ever make it to KTME or KSGR..lunch is on me

[@araknd]

Very nice flight! Been watching for a couple of years. My first question for you -- what watch are you wearing? Is this the only watch you have? Ciao!

[@CorporatePilotLife]

I have a few watches, but this one is my favorite. This is a Breitling Navitimer World Boutique Edition.

[@alessio272]

What is your Vfe 40 or full flap speed for that hawk? First time I came in on ROBUC 3 arrival I had to hold at PROVI. Super busy. KBOS sux. I’m glad you don’t have a single pilot operation for that mess.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Yeah that would not be fun single pilot. The full flap Vfe is 165 in the Hawker

[@alessio272]

Corporate Pilot Life that is my goal to have ultimate mastery of all the required modalities of the type assigned. Flying the SIDs and STARs have never been easy for me when the air traffic is in complete saturation. Having another competent pilot to share the work load seems to take more that half the stress away.

[@anthonystotts85]

Great vid! Nice to see a different platform, but ill always be a Gulfstream guy at heart! Was that handle you cranked and locked back after u set the TR’s on landing a manual speed break? Just curious never seen that before! Always learn somethin new on ur channel!

[@CorporatePilotLife]

I agree...I'll always be Gulfstream at heart as well. That lever is the speed brakes, but when you pull it back and down, it goes into Lift Dump which puts the flaps to 75 degrees. It really slows the plane down after landing...

[@anthonystotts85]

Corporate Pilot Life very cool! Makes for an extra step in the la ding process that looks stressful, but u def nailed it! Still interesting how diff platforms work! Thx for the reply!

[@bernardanderson7569]

Great to start doing the Headset giveaway like you did back in the days

[@AdmissiveComicGames]

Did you land on friday? I was spotting there friday and im wondering if I had captured your plane.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Sorry, but this was a little over a week ago.

[@Laonda7766]

Nice video :)

[@Staletaters]

So dynamically, how much different is this Hawker v. The GIVSP? Obviously the range isnt there, but to fly by the seat of your pants, is it more responsive to inputs all around, does it have a distinguishing characteristic that makes it a Hawker when you're flying it?

[@CorporatePilotLife]

The main difference is that the controls are much lighter than the Gulfstream. The G-IV flies like a dump truck...LOL

[@Staletaters]

@@CorporatePilotLife dont tell me that, I love Gulfstream...

[@CorporatePilotLife]

I'm not saying there is anything wrong with that...I certainly love Gulfstream as well. It does have a heavy control feel though...

[@Staletaters]

@@CorporatePilotLife Well, you're the actual pilot. I'm just the dreamer lol

[@K1DTC]

Boston is a busy place and a pain to get around the way the runways are. Plus “massport” fees are unbearable. Better off landing in Hanscomb field

[@iowadrummer79]

Nice video as usual!!! I'm wondering though, how do you feel about the M shaped yoke? I feel like it would be weird to go from a W shaped to an M shaped. It looks like riding a bike. Your thoughts?

[@CorporatePilotLife]

When I first started flying the Hawkers, it was a little strange, but it's surprisingly comfortable and easy to fly with. I got used to it in about 3 flights...now it's completely normal to fly either.

[@chriholt]

Beautiful! Now I just have to get *my* bearings in the Hawker cockpit. Any way you can get a high camera looking forward like you had in the G4, or isn’t there a good place to mount one?

[@CorporatePilotLife]

I'm working on making that happen. Mounting the cameras in the Hawker is a bit more challenging than the Gulfstream

[@Just_the_Q]

That was kinda of a weird cockpit camera angle.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Yeah...mounting cameras in the Hawker is a bit of a challenge. I'm working on some better angles. for future videos

[@jefflawsonqwest]

Any chance of not masking the call sign in future videos?

[@Nordique1919]

Jeffrey Lawson the company he flys with now has asked him to edit their call sign out.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

We're working on ways around that restriction, but for now, I have to edit them out

[@frankmcgee7158]

Great video, Shaun! Question: do you use a Hawker-provided checklist or a FlightSafety checklist approved for use in the Hawker?

[@CorporatePilotLife]

These are the approved ones from CAE. One of our Hawkers have electronic checklists on the MFD

[@AuditRecon]

I noticed a handle next to the throttle,,,Is that the speed brake? Very nice flight. Great job on landing.

[@CorporatePilotLife]

Yep...that is the speed brakes. Right after landing, we pull that back and down to engage the Lift Dump system to help slow us down. I think I'll do a Tech Tuesday video on that...

[@AuditRecon]

That was a guess on my part. I saw you engaged it right after nose wheel touchdown.

[@chrisc161]

So let me understand the Hawker is not as advance as the G4 ?

[@CorporatePilotLife]

These Hawkers have much more advanced avionics, but system wise, I would say the Gulfstreams are more capable

What was the screen that kept dimming and returning

[@CorporatePilotLife]

I'm trying to figure out what was going on there. That's the standby attitude indicator. It doesn't actually do that. I think the refresh rate of that screen was a little different than the camera so it looked like it was dimming on the video
