MY FIRST TIME FLYING THE VISION JET! - Flight to Heaven's Landing!

[@jessecole1011]

The instructor is soft spoken and very clear. He is the perfect guy to have as a teacher in an aircraft.

[@qrr857]

He also kinda turned Steve's perfect approach into a floater because he didn't trust him to not buzz the trees

[@albertcharles7182]

Agreed. .... As someone interested in learning to fly jets, this was an EXCELLENT introduction to commercial jet flight.

[@yeagemk]

That instructor is lazer focused. There were so many opportunities where he could have started bullshitting but he never took his focus off the task. Very professional

[@dmstevens87]

His constant focus and professionalism + words of encouragement and feedback were great. I have no idea how to fly an aircraft but his style reminds me a lot of some of the best trainers I worked with in my own career. (Electric locomotive driver)

[@ranjanguha6303]

Awesome flight Steve !! Loved the video. Thank you !!!

[@brianparkman8183]

I think a lot of that is it's a jet and you have a pilot that's never flown it before. I'm sure he's a little more chill in different circumstances.

[@mathewwollmann6695]

Thought the same thing! Especially on the landing. Hyper focused!

[@gewglesux]

you noticed that too huh..

[@richardchurchill2459]

What a great instructor! His encouraging direction on the approach was spot on!

[@tropicthndr]

Yea right, didn’t want to make jet look bad on touchdown, because sooo many pilots have run that thing off the end of the runway. Worst invention made by man, a jet Without “thrust reversers”, it only has wheel brakes and if the runway is wet, duh guess what happens every time, your going to the end, like “holy crap stop” your going to the end. I’ve been in right seat on one and they’re really cool on takeoff, but on landing you realize death is just one little mistake away every time, like too fking close. It’s really bad if you blow a tire.

[@paulmurphy7106]

Can someone please explain why the planes manufacturers put the yoke on the left side like that?? Unless it was designed for a left handed pilot. I could never be comfortable with that set up being right handed. I'd probably end up flying into the Everglades just for that reason alone. It seems totally ass backwards.

[@TexasHarleyBoy65]

That instructor is The BOMB! Good to know we have him passing his skills and knowledge on to others.

[@davidtaylor2131]

Until he turned on AC and... Sorry what you say ... Speak up ...

[@rexx9496]

As a non pilot civilian this was a blast to watch. I could almost feel the chops and nervous tension myself during the final approach.

[@firmanjati]

yep, same...

[@PocketRocket_]

Everyone in this video is a civilian…

[@wolfiemum461]

As a non pilot civilian Jesus I suppose you call Walmart workers shelf coordination experts

[@PackPractical]

Its so cool to hear the "excitement" in your voice Steve Also Charlie's voice is the PERFECT CFI voice. Super focused, calm, clear instruction.

[@carveroutdoors]

That approach and landing was unreal, great job Steve!

[@IrishDave]

Isn't this the best thing about aviation, no matter how experienced you are, there's always a plane that can challenge you, an airport that can challenge you and experience that can make you better! love it. Great video and what a beautiful airport.

[@mattjhsn]

That's the best thing about life as well as aviation.

[@andresnieto37]

That instructor is a MISSILE. He really made a good job guiding you through all flight stages on the Vision Jet and that landing was incredibly smooth. Nice video Steve-O!

[@mintah500]

What a blast! As a private pilot, I was transported into the cockpit with those awesome professionals. I felt myself trying to compensated for all the descent bumps and chops and finessing plane in into flare with Steve all the way to touch down. Heaven's Landing indeed! Great job guys!!

[@AndyC2_]

Steveo, you are literally cool as hell in a plane you’re not familiar with, weather, an instructor to satisfy - and you’re not phased at all ! Respect man !!!

[@ravenhurst00]

love seeing an accomplished pilot get excited and nervous. we better ourselves by leaving our comfort zones and Charlie is clearly a steely eyed missile man. Hope you enjoyed the trip.

except he keeps touching the stick..

[@Awesomes007]

@repentandbelieveinJesusChrist8Is this the god that will torture me forever if I don’t love him right? Anyway, yes, great instructor from what I can tell. Does he have a channel? Also, curious about him touching the stick.

[@droge192]

@@thudtheace - The instructor is touching the stick because that's where the radio transmit button is (even for the pilot not flying). He has to touch the stick in order to speak to ATC.

[@johnlillyblad5188]

@@droge192 Exactly, he was actually totally hands off the flight controls.. must not have been easy!

[@skipbisby7307]

Great Video, Great CFI. Its nice to see cockpit resource management at its best.

[@DoughDJ]

I wish I had the time and money to learn to fly from that instructor. I would feel completely confident after learning from him. Absolute professional!

[@sstreet9436]

You could feel the teeth gritting on that approach and touchdown. Nice job. And thumbs up to Charlie and the flight instruction crew. Someone mentioned laser focus; that and pure professionalism; an excellent combo for an instructor. Hoping to see more V1 tech rides with Charlie.

[@gabo12aguilar]

I attended Berichi Aviation and I can tell it is a top notch flight school. Chief CFI Charlie Berichi is an exceptional CFI, great role model for every pilot and the people in his school.

[@JosieTube]

Totally agree with all the comments on the instructor. He is excellent very calm, knows his stuff and keeps his student ahead of what’s coming.

[@bobholmes4215]

Awesome teamwork guys! Kudos to Steve for landing a plane he's never flown before, butter smooth too, and kudos to Charlie for great guidance on the approach and help getting it on the ground. Both pilots laser focussed, just with Steve you can't tell.

[@just4stringsnme]

Man, what a lesson that even a pilot as experienced as Steveo can experience nervousness, intimidation, and also childlike excitement lol with a new aircraft and new, tricky approach. Never stop learning as they say I guess. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@Girlsontop21]

One of those approaches we went to war together! Love that!

[@GulfCoastTim]

Yeah exactly what I was thinking

[@AdamsOlympia]

​@repentandbelieveinJesusChrist8 It always seems suspect when someone randomly interjects their religious agenda at inappropriate times or into topics or conversations that have nothing to do with it. It's similar to how financial scam artists flood social media with annoying spam. No wonder a record number of people have left religion behind today. Religious people no longer seem to have any tact or good judgement.

[@theminiscript6595]

That approach and landing gave me anxiety but pulled off that feat gracefully. Defo deserved an applause 👏 And Charlie man hats off 🫡

[@handsupbud]

I feel your excitement flying the Vision Jet. I'm a 800 hour private pilot and I got to fly a CJ3 on two ocassions where I got to take off and land it both times. It was the greatest moment of my life.

[@6582rg]

Greased it. Fantastic instructor Steve. I would feel totally comfortable with him. Very focused and professional.

[@akaknowlesy10]

Stunning scenery! Oh and Heaven’s Landing is great too.

That landing was tense but it awesome the way you handled it. Well done. And Charlie is a great instructor. He's very professional, clear and on point with his instructions.

[@rossreed9974]

What a fun flight! Thank you for having us along, enjoy safely out there!

[@ronhudson3730]

Gotta tell you Stevo, that was fantastic! Best vid yet. The combination of a great, very cool instructor, a very interesting and challenging flight and landing, his colleagues and your lovely girlfriend made this a special one. Thank you very much!

[@graysono]

What a superb instructor. His big great voice helps! Love the sound of engine start. Love the checklist on screen. Amazed by its performance, wow. Vision Jet would be a neat replacement for your TBM?! You seemed to get flying with a stick! An awesome watch!

[@Valkuriegaming]

Instructor has such a calming voice.... i love this little jet, I'm not a professional pilot or in training ..just an ordinary joe but love watching these videos!

[@justincase5272]

Oh, that last hole, er, cliff was just sick!

[@tsbrownie]

I always favored knobs over touch screens, if for no other reason, when you're being pitched around, your hand can hang on the knob. Can't see how one would avoid data entry errors on the radio, etc. under rough conditions (exactly when you don't need them).

[@allanthompson9633]

Bravo for this difficult landing with your first jet Vision flight. A great moment to live with you ! Thank you !

[@andysikora7115]

retired MIA TRACON/Tower guy here. Easy for you maybe picking up your IFR in the air, you made a lot of work for MIA/PBI and Miami Center for coordination just to get you your IFR with Miami Center. Maybe a slight delay on ground picking up IFR but from an ATC side, way less work for them! You were in PBI airspace within minutes due to your speed, they don't have a copy of the IFR flight plan. While they were trying to access it, you were entering Miami Center airspace. And they had access to the flight plan. Just info from the ATC side! Still like your videos

[@rdawgz866]

I agree, expecting a controller to to read a clearance on a busy frequency is allot to ask unless it's for a reason like changing weather conditions. But to save time on the ground I think it's a little unreasonable.

[@andysikora7115]

@@rdawgz866 if you are busy, the aircraft is in the next controllers airspace and you can't help him. That is pretty much what happened as he went from Miami approach to Palm Beach Approach to Miami Center. I have also been so busy there is no way you have time to issue a clearance to an airborne VFR. As was the case here, the weather as they climbed wasn't that great and at some point probably they would not be happy if they never got the IFR clearance.

[@timdeckerairshows]

Totally agree, most professional pilots understand this and accept the delay to be a team players and to mitigate risk- it's just part of the price of flying IFR in the flight levels. Maybe the instructor doesn't have a lot of type ratings and is still thinking like a piston GA pilot?

[@jeepinass]

Agreed. Would have been a fun day to receive a reroute for which you don't have enough gas for. Pick it up on the ground amateur.

[@byronjaffe518]

I was wondering also how much time is saved. I have found it much easier to get clearance on ground , especially in a busy area. Great video on the rest

[@p38pilot55]

This was an all around great flight. As noted, Charlie is an accomplished and highly skilled and confident instructor. Steve, while no stranger to Heavens Landing, demonstrated superb situational awareness, as usual greased the landing. Well done you two fine pilots and your passengers/crew!, I really enjoyed this video.

[@GroundedFlyboy737]

Outstanding instruction, wow! Heck of a place to take someone for their first landing in a jet, just throw him right into the deep end. Reminds me of BHM, TUS, LAS, ABQ and a couple other places where you crossed over a ridge line on short final during a visual approach. (Even worse if GPWS squawks at you!) Especially at night, lots of seat cushion sucking going on. That cockpit was nicer than every jet I've ever flown other than the MAX series from Boeing, very impressive. If I win the Mega Millions, I'll be visiting Cirrus for my own. Thanks for sharing this flight with us.
