TOP SECRET Mission to the BAHAMAS flying the CESSNA CARAVAN!

[@billyjoe3309]

I truly believe that Stevo may be one of the best pilots in the world. His enthusiasm and caretaking of the airplane is just amazing. I'd love to be his passenger one day!

[@nathanielsango7465]

That clearance radio call is crazy🙌🏼😂😂

[@JDSleeper]

I'm falling in love with this plane in Flight Sim 2020.

[@arthouston7361]

I stopped 135 work in 2002, so it's nice to see a good flying video. Brings back memories.

[@smaze1782]

Gotta be honest. Whenever I see a new Steve video it immediately brightens my day. Another great one sir. Can’t wait for the next one.

[@GaryMCurran]

There were enough of them today, Steveo actually finished last. There was Jerry W's video, Mr. Aviation 101's video, Flight Chop's video, and then Steveo. All good and kept my out of trouble for two hours.

[@thelert]

All my favorites, Premier 1 is another good ride.

[@golson33]

I'm too old to fly commercial - SO! I do it at home on FSX. That's about the best I can do these days; but it still brings back the memories. Thanks for the "Live" videos Steve.

[@journeyer58]

Gary I have Windows 7 + is there a way I can load FSX onto my computer I've tried a load of people and no one's answered please help if you can

[@TraneFrancks]

Flying to deliver groceries. To a private island in the Bahamas. That's gotta be the literal definition of living the dream.

[@jonashelmke2564]

Not saying I don't love steveo but it's also why the terrorists hate us

[@emanemanrus5835]

especially if you own both the plane and the island

[@mattdeighton9584]

Growing up on the plains of Kansas.... Grain Elevators to Grain Elevators..... Flying by the seat of your pants in a old J3 Cub..... I never would of thought I would be flying next to KC130s as a official student many years later ~ So much fun ~

[@rixplace1792]

To sit here and fly with Steveo is the same as sitting in the right seat, always a thrill.Every AM about 8 a Caravan passes over my house in EFTL heding east and I presume to the Bahamas

[@keithwebb3258]

I had my own Grand Caravan 208b No 1059 with Oasis interior. After a Cherokee Six and a Saratoga. It felt like a lounge with wings. Flew with PPL and IMC. Based on Isle of Man so plenty of weather and frisky crosswinds sea mists etc. Only got my PPL at age 62 so a late starter. So pleased not to have missed the experience. Great short field aircraft and fast enough for me. Your videos bring it back so well. I am sure you inspire people to fly and fly well.

[@cmbiker8147]

One hell of a day job,I wish my office window had that view.

[@RollTide8569]

Christian RT rider Yeah, but you get to do paperwork while he flies a stupid little plane!

[@chucklamont9778]

Your right Steveo nice greaser. Your also right about flying the Bahamas, early in my flying career I too flew in and out of islands for a charter service from Homestead general, (Key Largo-Air Service) bare bone, single Navajo, throw in a couple of Aztecs and a J-3 cub. Early on and looking back (1970s) plenty of work and no better way to load the log book. So thanks Steveo for bringing back some fun memories loved every minute of it.

[@indiana146]

Chuck La Mont did you ever have any ufo sightings

[@rebeccarhyner2642]

I practiced short approaches in my last lesson! Love your videos. Bahamas seems like an awesome place to explore as a Pilot.

[@tayloryacht]

Always loved Spanish Cay when I went by boat. Used to clear customs there. Always good to have a marine handheld VHF on hand. Everyone communicates this way there or used to anyway. I could be living in the past.

[@kennysworldtour5518]

Stevo, I absolutely love watching your flights to where ever! I’m not a pilot, but one day soon I hope to be. Watching professional pilots like you are truly an awesome inspiration! So please keep up the good work!😎

[@copflyer6569]

Awesome! I haven't been keeping up as I am recovering from recent open heart surgery. The serenity and beauty of this island has taken a lot of the pain away. Thanks for another great video Steveo.

[@josephjolly1936]

Thanks for the ride. 👍

[@ciibladeworks-carterhopkin6123]

I went to Spanish Cay as a young boy in approx 1972 when it was owned by Texas businessman Clint Murchison Jr., he was the founder of the Dallas Cowboys. My best friend's parents were friends of the Murchison's. We flew from Opa-Locka on their DC-3, they apologized that the Gulfstream II was in the paint shop. Anyway, it was a cool trip that I vividly remember 45+ years later. There were two 50'+ fishing boats that took us out fishing morning and afternoon. The food was great, and at night we watched Cowboy's game films and a film of NFL follies. There were also large pieces of debris on the beach from some type of missile/rocket, not uncommon in the Bahamas. Steve, keep up the great videos, nice to see the Caravan again.

[@pappybo49]

Thanks, Steveo, for a nice little jaunt to the Bahamas. Living the life, son, just living the life.

[@stevenss8070]

I’m sitting here in Switzerland and watch the video. It remembers me of our trip to the Bahamas. Landing on the same strip, spending a night on Spanish Cay, island hopping ... Thanks for sharing.

[@vanillaninja00]

Great to see the Caravan back on screen, I missed this old friend. Have a blast on your Ambassador adventure this week Steve-O!

[@steveo1kinevo]

Charlie Wilson thanks Charlie! Aka...The Mayor! :)

[@beyondinsanitybr]

If your name was Charlie Whiskey you could sign always CW

[@UncypheredRoblox]

i like when you do Bahamas flights i live in the Bahamas too

[@Spec62]

As you say, it NEVER gets old watching you fly to the Bahamas!

[@Spec62]

Another question, Steveo. You have any plans to take the Kodiak over to Staniel or any of the other islands? I'm sure there's one or two special people who would enjoy keeping you company.

[@chrisstannard2092]

well I know from experience that this man can fly a caravan!! You rock Steveo. thanks for the flight.

[@MyHealthByDesign]

Overflying the marina to "ring the doorbell" brought some memories of "Da plane! Da plane!" from Fantasy Island.

[@danielfefler7861]

Anyone else love those solid radio calls ? Nice video Steveo.

[@peterjohnkendall7637]

Have not flown for 18 months due to circumstance but I think Steve you have just wetted my appetite with that cool video thanks.

[@jackpinnell3973]

Steve, you have THE BEST flying vids on youtube and NOW you are flying my favorite Cessna aircraft to one of my favorite destinations!?!?!?

[@happyseal7202]

Video: TOP SECRET Steveo: Uploads to KZbin

[@sdawdawdawdawda1897]

HAHAHAH

[@dieselyeti]

Loved the 208. I flew one for a 135 company years ago and spent a week in the Caribbean as a relief pilot flying into St Bart's (SBH). Good times.

[@sailord-life861]

Mission accomplished you always rep da 242 steveo good to have you home again

[@donjones1203]

Thanks Steve; enjoyed the flight and comments!

[@stevecastro22]

Mission accomplished Mr. Phelps, love those short finals....

[@olmecultra6588]

1980 - Bimini Island airport-after the last ferry left. "You get into your plane and spend the night. If you step off the wing you will be shot." At dawn we started up the engines on our Piper Aztec and got the hell out of there!

[@planejaneuno]

Amazing & thank you for sharing this video.

[@ernestbrumage8590]

Beautiful flight, beautiful island!! I can't even begin to grasp what it must be like to own your own private island!! But, I would like to at least give it a try sometime!! Thanks so much for "the ride"!! Regards, Ernie

[@buckshot704]

The front office of the Caravan looks pretty spacious! Beautiful view! 😎👍

[@brentwilson9983]

Speaking of Top Gun...Top Gun 2 is on its way!!

[@billkline4077]

I love the way your using your drone shots with your videos, it rounds out the whole video. Not only a great pilot great videos

[@johnkeyes630]

Steveo, your audio is so inclusive... Very nice. I look so forward to your videos.....some of the best on KZbin.......Please keep them coming..

[@caroltyler7498]

Wow !! That runway looked like an aircraft Carrier covered in moss !!!

[@gorway7]

Have always loved the Caravan - it's a proper work horse. Used to catch a lift to Orkney on one, with the Mail and the odd crate of chickens and a couple of goats.

[@edcast81]

Great work! I flew that same 208 for the limo back in 2012. Good memories like you said.

[@Ms2mark]

You Sir, are having Too Much FUN..... you make flying look MAGNIFICENT..

[@cesarquintana9034]

Beautiful video Sir. You are an encouragement to pilots. Thank you.

[@lindsaythomas2283]

For someone running a business in the Bahamas, the 208 with belly pod is the perfect station wagon/mini-van. I'm soooo jealous.

[@indiana146]

Once when flying from Manchester to Malaga my parents live down the coast in torre neueva The pilot came on the tannoy it was a yank he was very good smooth landing in Malaga great video

[@DUBaviator]

Tricky tailwind on landing looking at the sock.

[@pavelow36]

you're already good at flying steveo, but you're getting better and better with cinematography. that drone work is pretty awesome. I really hope you can also attach gopro outside the plane, maybe on top or portside where the wheels can be viewed on touchdown. really amazing work.

[@benmartz3405]

I sure am glad david copperfield did not make you disappear! I saw him in atlanta once! Coolest show ever

[@woodwardbenjy54]

Wow! Great flight in the Caravan into Spanish Key. That was breathtaking the view of Spanish Key on approach. Thank you from Tennessee!

[@SimonHollandfilms]

felt I was along for the ride...thanks.

[@DougFM]

I got to fly a Cessna 172 from West Palm Beach to Freeport, Bahamas. Flying over the ocean for the first time was trippy.

[@garydell2023]

Thank you Steveo for the ride along. Mission accomplished. Saw you on Niko's wings. Keep flying safe.

[@danielrogeriomelocunha4083]

Nice flight, and smooth landing 😇 god bless you captain, you're supporting me here in Brazil with my phraseology in English 🙏🏻✈️ Thank you

[@butchmcgeeair4106]

wonderful. thanks for letting me "fly along" knowing this is as close as I will ever get to be doing the flying your are doing.. so a lot of us "live" through you and your videos... thanks again

[@troygrant88]

Im using my GI Bill to become a pilot. I cant wait to get started in the fall. great video.

[@MindShivy]

My end of service date is in August of '21 and I'm considering that route too. Got any advice on how to start that process?

[@lindarte]

15:48 Probably every single pilot's favorite movie

[@MrIggybo]

I haven’t seen any of your vids lately because good old YT has unsubbed me from your channel for no reason whatsoever... Resubbed and now watching everything I’ve missed in the last half year

[@jimnew5813]

Ha...like your second mode of travel when reaching the Bahamas. Love the Bahamas, our family including my wife , my son's wife two kids and their dog flew a Caravan from FLL to Great Harbour for a four day stay when he was flying for Tropic Ocean Airways. we rented a car to get around the little island of 700 residents.

[@jeffsinger6718]

The first aviation vlog I subscribed to, and still my favorite. Great video!

[@jaagoutalentdevelopment6516]

Thanks Steve, it's really a lot of enjoyment watching your videos! Cheers, Eric.

[@stephennightingale6787]

Really enjoy your commentaries and informative style especially regarding the avionics side of things.Nice editing! More please.

[@russellclement2058]

A long approach is fine,,, I like the scenery,,

[@HardHatPat]

What an awesome aircraft! I love jumping out of that door

[@MiHiHemi]

Who the heck would "thumbs down" this stuff?

[@chucklamont9778]

MiHiHemi People who thumbs down are, simply jealous, too much time on their hands and have nothing nice to say too or about another individual, they can't even like themselves, so thumbs down to the thumbs-downers...

[@Touchthesky412]

No Mindy?

[@gewglesux]

Prob those on dial -up still or who peaked in HS.. trying to figure out were they went wrong.

[@MiHiHemi]

LOL

[@HistoricalWonder720]

I honestly think most just do it by mistake, its happened to me once.

[@aaronfrick9880]

“Negative Ghost Rider, the pattern is full.” Top Gun is an awesome movie.

[@jameswikstrom4174]

Great video! Love the Mission Impossible music as well as the great scenery. The Bahamas are an actual 'Paradise"! Spanish Key is not bad either! The Caravan, beautiful clear water and Steveo. It doesn't get much better than that! BRAVO!

[@serg154taxi]

awesome mission, had a lot of fun watching it. ty for sharing your flight.

[@Webleys]

Spent 25 years flying a FedEx Feeder Caravan, love that airplane! Looks like our old panel, I liked the steam gauges. Got Garmin 600s in them now. Nice video!

[@haulinhogs]

After a busy week this was just what i needed for my Friday, a nice flight in a caravan back to the Bahamas...Thank You, Thank You!

[@loremaable]

Very nice view during the left donwind leg.

[@bobbuchanan2626]

Thanks Steveo, love the Caravan, nice to see you in a Caravan again.

[@TREVORDAWSONTHD]

I love that caravan for sure and not to forget your trusty old skateboard.

[@donstravelsandrants.]

Great position of the cameras on the caravan.. Fantastic views.

[@Kacey135]

This is probably one of my favorite flights I've watched of yours Steveo! What awesome scenery! I think the landing announcement was my favorite part!!!

[@davidgriffith1513]

I used to fly an Aztec in to Walkers Cay a good bit back in it's hay day. It is the northern most Bahama Island and much of the hotel and marina were destroyed by back to back hurricanes. I hear Carl Allen bought the island and is planning on putting it back onto the sport-fishing map. It will be good to see Walkers busy and booming again.

[@allendejesus5404]

Watching your videos are making me want to become a pilot

[@SoupyOatmeal]

Enjoyable and easy to watch , great video Steve. Thanks.

[@TheEarthandyou]

You got it. Thumbs up. It seemed short.... which is good... stayed interested. Great guide!

[@Larry-v9i]

The Caravan is definitely the best Cessna has produced. ❤

[@aviator_thomas]

By far the best way to bring groceries from A to B. Great video, Steve!

[@niceguy2171]

Nice fl..err Mission, and in the Caravan, finally a craft I've flown, and the ability to see all around you never gets old. When you get used to calling out a callsign so much, it IS hard to switch to another, and I used to have so much problems with that at times, as you just rattle it off without thinking, so can definitely understand that. Gorgeous views of coming in on that approach (again, extended windscreens help ;) and how cool to land at Spanish Cay there!

[@jonmcrafts]

Great to see the "Master" at work. Really liked the position you had the Go-Pro setup. Got a great view to Co-Pilot six pack too! Keep them coming!

[@sonnymoon6465]

Very nice video ! thank you !

[@acrodrigues1]

That runaway looks like the surface of the moon!

[@balhallak]

Nice flight and nice island, keep exploring!

[@damo3748]

Hey Steve, I have ended up with about 50 hours on the mighty van down here in Oz, but have had medical issues and have not flown for the last 5 years! I love seeing your videos & reminiscing on just how awesome the caravan is. Thanks for posting :-)

[@philhill184]

Beautiful area! Thanks for sharing!

[@slinehan4]

Sweeeeet! Love the 208! Clearance read back like a boss Steveo!

[@bruceerwin2541]

Beautiful, Steveo! Thanks.

[@makemyday1477]

That plane always looks like you’re flying a boat, but don’t get me wrong, it’s still a pretty versatile and cool plane.

[@galas455]

You do a pretty good job keeping your audience in mind at all times, yeah hoo

[@agentsbobbilly4385]

I loved this video steveo, and after the mission was over my computer started to smoke and self destruct. Cheers

[@tonywatkins6139]

Another excellent video man, so great to see the Caravan/Bahamas combo again.

[@andrewpabon4522]

Man I wish there was a screen at the end that said mission passed like GTA San Andreas used to have. Been watching for a long time, love the videos!

[@bradfigiel2203]

Awesome video, you are definitely living the James Bond life. Sold my Tri Pacer last year and miss being able to get up and go in the U.S. airspace system. Glad I found your vlog. The superb video and audio help me get my fix of flying even if I am in the back seat. Keep up the good work.

[@root9065]

Man that BOSE headset is killer :) nice to see Bose pushing the envelope and innovating on the aviation market. Yes, in-ear headphones always isolate noise better, and likely offer better sound too. Enjoyed the video as always, thanks for the ride ;)

[@CaptainReverendo]

Steveo! Good to see you back in the caravan! I started watching you during ppl training, now I have IR and getting ready for commercial checkride. Learned a lot from you, including how to wear cool socks and ties like Reggie!

[@marktaylor8263]

Da plane da plane, it has arrived. 👍👍 Steveo....

[@mmcleod111]

That was cool! Private Island life…I’ll take that
