Scud Running FAIL! Pop-Up IFR.

[@CJE2007.5]

Around the 15-minute mark, when you popped up outta the clouds for a second boy, that was a beautiful picture. Beautiful blue sky.

[@DanMackAlpha]

that was a fun ride, thanks for taking us all along 🙂

[@sergeyvyatkin]

They wanted me to put the Caravan exactly at the same spot at Spaceland Dallas when I completed my ferry flight from your place on November 1st, 2021 😅

[@leewolfgramscolonelchannel]

hey buddy, reminds me of the last time we scud runned all the way to Florida from Minnesota. Intense flying, but makes you feel like a pilot!

[@kasm10]

pro tip: no need to stand in the rain for your intro my man. especially with the hanger 50 ft behind you

[@KerryDMcCauley]

Boy aint go sense enough to come in out of the rain!

[@jackoniel8565]

Kerry just wanted a free shower...

[@KerryDMcCauley]

@@jackoniel8565 I'm cheap that way!

[@kasm10]

great to see more videos from you Kerry

[@KerryDMcCauley]

More to come now that skydiving season is over. Of course it is deer hunting season now.

[@larryanderson8049]

Hitched a nice ride...thanks man!

[@EricEsser]

Rule number four of scud running is don’t run into the ground while avoiding the clouds. Rule number five is don’t run into a tower. Sure looks dicey.

[@KerryDMcCauley]

Visibility is key. Check out my video on scud running.kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHTYf6NjZbZniNk

[@corylund4792]

Great vid. Now we have to sadly wait for the bird to come back with the spring migration

[@vasrajan4214]

6:04 Does the prop appear to be turning counter clockwise when viewed from the cockpit?

[@KerryDMcCauley]

That Caravan has the 900hp Garrett engine that turns that way.

[@dalemullins4562]

Holy crap! There was no room to mess around on that landing, it was about as wide as my driveway.( 1 car)

[@KerryDMcCauley]

You want to keep right down the middle on that runway!

[@jeremiahstarke4516]

Its a wild deal. Ive done it with a taylorcraft on a strong ctosswind at a similar airport east of Dallas. Had an oh shit moment when the plane bucked towards the grass but i made it

[@KerryDMcCauley]

@@jeremiahstarke4516 Gotta be on your A game in strong crosswinds.

[@Raiders33]

​@@KerryDMcCauley Nice landing on Sidewalk 18. 😛😁

[@entropyachieved750]

Great vids keep it up

[@KerryDMcCauley]

Thanks for watching. More to come!

[@chrisclem4470]

Thanks for the videos! Wish you would have had cameras like this years ago! Would have been cool to watch. Your books are good though!

[@KerryDMcCauley]

Oh to have had these cameras back in the day! Glad you like the books!

[@michelvidal-naquet7916]

Oh Dear, I hope my PPL students don't see this video and get ideas...

[@KerryDMcCauley]

Is it as an example of what not to do!

[@michelvidal-naquet7916]

Precisely what I mean :)

[@michaelspunich7273]

I watch videos of $100000 planes that have 3 axis auto plots all the time. What's up with an expensive Caravan w/o one?

[@KerryDMcCauley]

Has one, just inop.

[@alk672]

I can't tell if you're flying or driving. It kinda looks like you're driving out of the side window for most of the video.

[@KerryDMcCauley]

At least I didn't have to stop for stop signs.

[@alk672]

@@KerryDMcCauley maybe you did, it's a grey area.

[@rickashford4005]

Kerry... you do things ass backwards, or totally fucking wrong. That's why I admire the hell out of you!! 😅😂 This is great stuff!!

[@larrynoe6162]

Looks like Whiteright.

[@libertine5606]

Sounds like you had a few holes in the Swiss Cheese I am glad that they didn't line up. You always had the out of going IFR. Scud running without a out is suicide. I would have had flight following, if possible at that altitude. That way a pop up is not a big deal since they already know who you are. I guess that the high altitude gas savings with the turbine wasn't enough to cancel out the headwinds.

[@KerryDMcCauley]

Getting the popup wasn't a big deal. The headwinds vs. Fuel savings were close to a wash. I chose speed because I was in a hurry.

[@paratyshow]

[@larrynoe6162]

Jump pilots get all the 🐱

[@rickdc3]

Foreflight does NOT give you real time weather radar. ADSB has a delay that has killed many pilots. You also admitted your artificial horizon doesn't really work, but you took off knowing you might be IFR and went IFR. You also need a current NAV database in the plane's GPS (not the iPad) to be legal. I've never seen such gross incompetence. Perfect demonstration of how experienced pilots normalize deviant behavior because they've gotten away with it in the past and lived, until they finally don't get away with it....I'm speechless.

[@KerryDMcCauley]

I know adsb has a delay I use it every day. I wasn't worried about the horizon, I can deal with it. You don't need a current database to shit non gps approaches, so still leagel. Wasn't worried about this trip at all.

[@dhouse-d5l]

Nice vid. Gethereitis is ok if you understand it, and how to manage it, you sir are on the money.

[@KerryDMcCauley]

Putting a Garrett on the Caravan is a game changer, but you are correct, they are not as easy to operate as the Prat.
