Landing where no one has landed before - VLOG

[@eddieberry8450]

Really appreciate your warnings about the different public lands and respecting the restrictions.

[@arguingwithstupidpeople2047]

So sick of videos showing PPGs harassing wildlife.

[@mrchican7179]

"Peterson's Saddle" for the first one (you mentioned it looked a little like a saddle on your first pass.

[@austinthorne9375]

Hey man. Lovin these vids. A lot different than any other aviation vlogging right now. Keep em coming!

[@Digzthis]

"Peterson's Perch" - Good stuff man, keep em coming!

[@matthewcirnigliaro9124]

Dude, I'm so jealous of your bush flying life. Thanks for posting these killer videos to I can at least live vicariously. Landing 1 = Peter's Saddle. Landing 2 = Dropitin Ridge...haha. Great work, man!

[@sipplix]

Gotta love a pilot who takes a drone with him... Just in case! Great video👍😎

[@ctsteve1967]

please tell us why?

[@df3yt]

Fabulous video - thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of it, commentary, music, video angles. I know it takes loads of effort to edit and put something like this together so - thank you very much!

[@TrentonPalmer]

Thanks!

[@martinjnee3986]

You fly like a seasoned pilot Trent, great flying, great video! as usual. First landing stop, Pete's Dare. Second one Petersen Crest. Can't wait to get bush gear and tundra tires on my 4 :-).

[@TheTomkat13]

This channel is going to blow up. Great content and even better editing. Great to see a fellow Renoite out enjoying this awesome area we get to call home.

[@TrentonPalmer]

Thanks man! I appreciate the compliment!! Hope to catch you out and about sometime

[@rodstol]

For Pete's Sake

[@rodstol]

Pete's Pucker

[@TGOIIHome]

Great Job Trent! Thank you very much for taking a lot of time in you video (but not too much great info and still very entertaining) to show how important it is to respect the land!

[@sshelo1]

Pete's Punch Bowl, or Pete's Party Bowl! Keep these awesome videos coming!!! I hope to get my Kitfox out there one of these days!

[@Aviation101]

Such a cool video man! Makes me want to get a big tire tailwheel so bad. So awesome. Gained a subscriber here.

[@TrentonPalmer]

Thanks man!

[@averagejoepilot6201]

Oh hey there

[@ctsteve1967]

go fucking buy one or shut your mouth

[@Indarow]

@@ctsteve1967 Jeez, don't get your panties in a bunch Sally.

[@markshadden500]

Me too... The desire in my heart ...

[@marpatdan]

You are Living my dream! Super Rad videos keep up the good work!

[@ctsteve1967]

we use to hop up cars back in the day now they hop up airplanes. Cool. But I would have a lot of power on my airplane. not this lame as 140 hp or so. around 300 hp is the way to go.

[@CraigVanSickleAK]

Well done Trent... Your videos have a natural flow and story to them. Very glad to have found you on youtube! Great content.

[@TrentonPalmer]

+Above Terrain thanks!!

[@fredstork]

Wow, that was nice to see - and very instructive. You are lucky, over here in France there are no "yellow" only "bright red no-no". Fortunately we have a lot of mountain fields, but it not really the same... you can't plant your flag and give the place a name. Excellent video work as usual. Looking forward to the next one!

[@davidholubetz1014]

Awesome vid. Love all of yours. You just look like a regular dude and then you pull out all this sick flying. Totally inspiring.

[@nullvalu]

Love your videos and that you take the time to explain things & put me down for another vote on an in-depth video tour of your bird!

[@benth162]

Wow, great video Trent. I enjoy watching your outings.

[@danb.9713]

Wow another great video. It was an adventure, but with an eye toward safety (always a good thing!)

[@VGreggUndercover]

Such an inspiration. You are living my dream and I won’t stop chasing it

[@robertdrew3864]

Great new format and nice work splicing all the different camera angles together. Really like the replays from multiple perspectives.

[@kelticpaddler]

Hey Trent...great video. Very inspirational. I was a Winter mountaineer, but an accident in the Army left me with a spinal injury so I don't do mountains anymore...I kayak instead (anything I can do sitting down!) But this gives me hope for the future! Thanks bud!

[@TrentonPalmer]

Glad you liked my video! I️ actually have a couple friends with spinal injuries that I️ am trying to get into flying, one just got his medical and the other is still just getting the nerves up to do an intro flight with an insteuctor

[@ABSScott]

Awesome flights. Glider pilot here, into high adventure. Haven't been interested in power till I found your passion. You know how to live!

[@oreo7007]

So inspiring man! I hope you keep flying and filming.

[@johnfife3062]

#9 to vote "Spooky Pete's." Glad you like it, too. When I first started watching your tube, oldest first, the flying felt pretty wild and free-wheeling. It's videos like this that highlight the other side -- the calculation, caution, and skill you bring to it. All of it's good stuff. Thank you. Hope to run into you sometime, maybe when I've got the hours to join the Flying Cowboys.

[@FliteTest]

osmo cam ftw!

[@letsgocamping88]

FliteTest that osmo footage is something else.

[@SpectrabyteRL]

I love the osmo to

[@benjamingoerzen3631]

Inspiring AMP Mechanic here, abaolutly love your videos, you make me want a kitfox more and more each day!

[@rjlittle53]

Excellent video! Looks like too much fun.

[@mrstinkytit]

It seems as the first destination was sort of a bowl. So, my suggestion is: Pete’s Soul Bowl, a remote STOL landing area. The second destination, more generic: Pete’s Downhillian. Of course depending on the wind speed and direction. Great narration and vlog work. We don’t have the open hilly terrain here in Georgia. Beautiful high plains scenery in your region. Enjoy the flying. Nice touch with the drone vid as well.

[@jimmorrison306]

This is the most beautiful video I’ve ever seen. Has to be hard for anything else in life to measure up to this type of flying.

[@whoanelly737-8]

Great! Thanks for making these. Excellent commentary. Love the drone shots.

[@MrLikeke]

Peterson saddle" for 1st landing spot. While you were checking before your 1st landing I saw at least four likely looking spots. Your 2nd landing was at one of them. Why don't you come down to try Tower Butte near Page, AZ.

[@boosted242]

Hey! Greets from the UK/Lithuania!!! Love the vids! Keeps me thinking if i could get the licence one day as i would absolutely love to fly!! Keep it coming!!

[@Mudtiresrc]

First one should be Peterson's rift...second place could be earth's peak....love the vids...keep them coming....

[@mikewhitcomb6558]

Any landing you can walk away from is a good landing. If you can reuse the aircraft, it's an EXCELLENT landing. Love your videos.

[@Jmuney22Trike]

thats sick dude!!!! in the perfect world ud be able to bring a small dirtbike with you to explore,,,or even in an emergency landing ud be able to go for safety and supplize live the dream bro

[@mikewashere9660]

Call the strip P.P.U.! Peterson's Possible Upset.. Clearly one needs be better than novice at getting outta there! great job, you make it so easy. Lord bless you and all! Kind Regards Mike

[@k.c.8447]

Peterson’s Toilet bowl and Freedom Ridge!!! Love the videos!,

[@thomasbailey680]

Fantastic video. I truly enjoy watching your vlog.

[@paulog405]

I loved the video, and can't wait to have my own taildragger. Here is another name suggestion: Petersen's windy ridge field. Thank you.

[@anthonyoliva2781]

Cool video. I learned to fly at KRTS at Ace Aviation. It was great seeing footage of the old stomping grounds.

[@KaDaJxClonE]

I love that you cleared your prop on top of a mountain, on a brand new airstrip, in the middle of nowhere.

[@robtstubbs]

"7700 on Top" would be a good name or identifier for this last landing spot. Well done Trent. You got Guts, for sure.

[@wb6she]

Great video, thanks for sharing...love that kind of flying..

[@abdullahalshehri1793]

I like your videos,, you are making really good adventures,, keep it up bro , wish you the best always ✈️👏🏻

[@matteo441]

Amazing! And how you edited the video is awesome!

[@Flightstar]

Pete`s Hole. Cool App never heard of it before. Great info on this vid. Thanks.

[@wildelorme4409]

Dude your videos make me feel like I'm on an adventure that I so desire to go on!!!

[@randomthings2711]

awsome vid bro! "Pete's Dragon" cuz u slayed that man! Good stuff

[@ctsteve1967]

Saddle Ridge

[@ronsites2694]

Great video! I love flying like that.

[@WiseOldDope]

Hi, 71 year old retired sport pilot. When your age my buddies and I rebuilt old Cubs and such and flew in gaggles around Arkansas looking for out of the way strips. I rebuilt and flew a Luscombe 8A. I also built the fuselage for a two place Sonerai for a friend. I owned and flew a Navion for a couple of years. Enjoyed the complex experience but couldn't even afford the gas. Harsh reality sucks. Sold it bought and rebuilt a Cessna 140 rag wing. I tried to find info on Kit Fox kits and prices and couldn't.

[@CBLounge2112]

AWESOME vid, glad I found your channel and greetings from Carson City!!

[@OneAV8]

It's cool to go back and watch the videos from the beginning! (Not that I binge watch or anything....)

[@TrentonPalmer]

Little stroll down memory lane 😜

[@AaronRobertson]

Petersen Patch. Nice vid. I'm just a few flights away from my Private, can't wait.

[@anthonyhitchings1051]

I really appreciate the work that you put into to editing the vids

[@robstanton9215]

I’m really digging on some of these older videos Trent!!! I’m a fairly recent subscriber maybe just under 2 years. So, I’m catching up on past vids Anyway, I’m sure you know that it’s never a waste of time to keep your take off routine in tact by calling out “clear prop” to the mountain lions 😂 Cory Robin can attest to that 😉 How about calling that strip “Peterson’s Pinnacle AKA Butt Slap Butte” 👍🤠👍

[@diverbob8]

That was fun, a good idea that it was cold air!

[@wyattwillis9276]

Peterson’s lookout

[@Jangle2007]

Pete's Sage Flat. Cool project you're working on here. Interesting to watch the thought process.

[@TenorDad]

Hey Trent, try these names out for size... "Pete's Ditch," "Tipping Bowl," "Petersen's Hole"

[@normflyer]

Great Work As always Trent. While I know it is not meant to be an instructional Video there are a lot of great tips for scoping out a new site. As for the name "Peterson's Peak"

[@edwinkania5286]

Petersen Freedom Bowl (a little late)... That rock was there 10 million years and you moved it....hehe Second name Petersen Rotor Top!!

[@rocky082259]

oh my gosh, used to party on the runway at the old Stead air force base back in the 70's

[@AV8R_1]

The ONX Hunt app is one I’ve used for a few years now to map private parcels, and get the names of landowners, for determining where I can ride ATVs, or who I might need to ask for permission. It’s a great app! By the way, Trent, I recently discovered your channel, so I’m a new subscriber. I’ve been a huge fan of tail-wheel/push type flying ever since I discovered the “cub driver” films a few years back. I’ve been a Cherokee pilot for 11 years now and even gone commercial in helicopters, but I’m definitely considering getting some tail-wheel experience myself!! Your videos are amazing, keep up the good work! Also, just an FYI that might be helpful...when I was in Helicopter school, we used to use an acronym (W.O.P.P.P.S) when scouting for off field landings. Wind, Obstacles, Path in, Path out, Powerlines, and Sun. Most of these are self-explanatory, but the sun is a common one that can bite an inexperienced pilot. If it’s blasting you in the face on approach or departure, it can dramatically impair visibility, as you well know. Just a small helpful tip!!

[@280zjammer]

That's a training lz for the guard. Helicopters don't mark the ground much but there's more traffic there than I would have thought if I didn't know better.

[@rcbif101]

Sweet Stuff! I start my Private Glider to Sport Pilot via a tailwheel aircraft next week. Pretty excited, owning a Kitfox is my goal in the next year. One suggestion for your videos is maybe turn down the music a bit when you are talking. It was for the most part I think, but the techno chick noise is kinda distracting, lol

[@TrentonPalmer]

Yeah, I am definitely no master when it comes to mixing audio, I will watch out for that on the next one. Thanks for the input!

[@FunInSC]

I thought the background track was fine. One thing I've noticed when making YT videos is that someone will invariably hate your background music while others will dig it--can't make everybody happy. ;)

[@lovzgamz]

Peterson Plateau

[@TheWindigomonster]

Just subscribed today - I´m a couple weeks away from my private pilot checkride, hopefully Ill be able to do something along these lines once I finally get my wings.

[@TrentonPalmer]

Awesome! Good luck on your checkride! You’ll be doing what I do before you know it

[@michigannative2951]

Great video thanks for sharing this.

[@youdate1377]

I'll have to try that on the flight sim. I have photo scenery for that area might be fun.

[@KGFlyer55]

Awesome flight, epic👍👍

[@DadsTimeOutdoors]

1st landing: Peterson's Pucker Meadow...... 2nd landing: Peterson's Flattop Ridge Nice Video!

[@BigMoose906]

Im thinkin Pete's Chilli Bowl for the first spot and maybe Surf Break for the second spot. The turbulant air probably eddies like waves.

[@crownspecialties]

So cool just started watching your videos! You probably think most of your viewers fly but those of us that don’t, I really like learning about it from you guys, somethings I have to figure out through context but some of the acronyms I have no idea. Can you try to tell us from now on what the acronyms stand for? Thanks!

[@04JALD]

Good afternoon Trent. Do you fly other types of planes or do you mainly stay with bush planes? I have flown cubs and champs awhile back with my dad and I know there isn’t much to actually fly it. What kind of training did you do to start flying bush?

[@oldawg8643]

Great adventure but you need a girl to help out with "stuff"... "Peterson's saddle ridge" seems like a good name. Thanks for the vids and be safe!

[@douglasrodrigues332]

I used to land my 1960 Cessna 175 on the iron mine slag pile located between Carson City and Yerington. Your plane should be able to handle that one too. Land south to north only. With my old plane, "playing" with it meant no more than half fuel, no more than two people aboard, and the wind would have to be zero, or from the north. Also had a heavy duty nose wheel strut slightly over inflated to keep the prop higher off the ground. The STOL kit and Lyc O-360 and CS prop installed later made that landing easier.

[@TrentonPalmer]

Hey Doug! I believe I’ve landed exactly where you are talking about, we call it “gold mine” even though it’s not actually a gold mine. It has a couple big concrete blocks that you have to thread the needle between which can make things interesting.

[@douglasrodrigues332]

Trent Palmer, i would come around the pile flat and slow, touch down and lay on the brakes. On takeoff, flying speed would be achieved after going off the north end in a slight dive. I landed there 6 or 7 times. Another interesting easy to land place is Stage Coach dry lake, or Cold Springs dry lake ( when it's dry.) There are a couple of spots to land on are the old closed off highway sections north of Yerington. I always wanted to try the one way strip on a mountain top north west from Bishop, but the few times I wanted to camp there there was snow on the ground, depth unknown to me?

[@patriottexan]

Great video man! I just stumbled upon your channel and really like it. I love your plane BTW.

[@hotrodray9884]

Wow. If I had seen these videos in 1970.... My taildragger life was pretty fun anyway. Miss it... Got my CP/AP ratings in 68. Gotta go buy a lottery ticket !!!!!

[@DV-ce1gn]

Sweet video, I fly here in northern Nevada, been trying to make it out to hsfi for a couple years now, there a couple spots out on top of the Stillwater range that would be killer to land on

[@TrentonPalmer]

You should definitely try to make it out to HSF! Where is the Stillwater range?

[@DV-ce1gn]

It's out east of Fallon, there is a flat plateau out there on top of one of the mountains, I eye it every time I'm out there flying, I'm too chicken and not enough flight time to attempt it, plus the nose gear of the 172 probably would enjoy it..lol..i may have a pic of it I could send ya

[@DV-ce1gn]

Easy to find, plan direct from flx to bam, do it on a weekend so 4812 isn't active, it's off your left wingtip after you cross the range..cant miss it

[@danielforde-pogson9557]

Ha! I just laughed out loud when you said "Clear"...then you commented yourself. Also thought you were going to name it after you found out if you could get out!

[@mjd8793]

"Top Of The World" Thanks for the videos!

[@TheM0JEC]

Concensus one the first one seems to be Spooky Pete, it's a cool name, with the winds at the second one maybe Turbulent Pete? Would be nice to warn people in advance of its nature? I've not done much flying, but have a friend who is now a commercial pilot, we're both jealous of your lifestyle. I have a Phantom 3 Standard which I'm still learning to fly. (Had it about a year) Keep up the great videos, another vote for a tour of your plane video.

[@FlyingGarrick]

Great video Trent

[@jcbaily5559]

Fantastic....thanks for the thrill!!!

[@angusdelaforte9779]

Spooky Pete's, and I loved the video and info.

[@jonathanloomis9348]

I like that you live tread lightly in true bush style

[@antoniogray5344]

Love it... Good job...

[@gentomfool]

Spooky Pete's for the first one, and The Tumbler for the second spot!

[@TenorDad]

Tumbler! Like it!!

[@TenorDad]

Trent can also use, "Wham, Bam, Thank you, Ma'am."

[@TrentonPalmer]

HAHA! Thats funny

[@orion_13]

On the last take off, exactly how close did you get to the line of rocks? The one camera shot from under the plane looked really close and I couldn't tell if it was a camera angle or not.

[@stuuser0]

Good job mate!! Nice flying :-)

[@cubcrafters]

Awesome video Trent!

[@TrentonPalmer]

+CubCrafters thanks!!

[@CVObservatory]

I watched a video a few weeks ago of two Paramotor fliers that landed and camped overnight at the second location you landed at. New sub and love your videos. *Well, looking at there video again it wasn't the same spot. Looked almost the same though.* lol

[@douglascloud4484]

maybe this has been mentioned, just a thought, maybe you can rig an small para scope on the top of your windshield, like Charles Lindberg had on the "Spirit of St Louis", as you may know, he had no view out the front shield. that is where one of his fuel tanks sat. He rigged a para scope of sorts to see where he was on takeoff. just a thought. maybe install a forward looking camera.

[@davidparry8514]

I know you fly safe but remember Steve Fossett, the rotors got him. Enjoying your adventures.

[@NearlyNativeNursery]

Peterson's Conservation Gap. Super video Trent:)

[@GiuseppeSRedSky]

I love this kind of flight

[@Flyingiowa]

Great video!

[@mesoltaso]

Nice! hugs from Brazil

[@panteraownsme]

Pete's Peter, lol. Love your vlogs man, keep it up! looking into starting my PPL, then maybe one day look into a kitfox.

[@TenorDad]

Matthew, grab a Sport Pilot certificate with just 20 hours, no fight physical required. PPL averages at 70 hours these days. Don't wait till then. Start having fun at twenty!

[@panteraownsme]

would that be the same as a recreational licence in Canada? looking in to it as we speak. Thanks Tony.

[@TrentonPalmer]

That’s a good question, I’m not really familiar with the Canadian laws/rules

[@panteraownsme]

I'll figure it out, and let you guys know! PS did Pete's Peter win the name?

[@TrentonPalmer]

Still brewing on it, and loving the comments. Right now my fav is probably Spooky Pete’s
