When I saw, "Flying Adventure". I clicked play immediately. Thank You for bringing us along. Loved It!

[@Cougracer67]

Did you you know that the name Owyhee is an old name for Hawaii? So how did a mountain range in SW Idaho come to be named for some Pacific islands?! There is a rather involved back story here. Briefly, in the mid-1800's a group of men from Hawaii got snookered into coming to Idaho for work, if I remember. They got homesick and decided to walk to California and go home. They left camp and were never seen again.

[@nzsaltflatsracer8054]

I always wondered about that, I live in Bannock County high country.

[@Alex-pg5zz]

They came to trap beaver. There's a historical marker at the top of the Marsing grade that explains it.

Kanakas came from Hawaii to work the gold fields of California in 1849. Many kept going to Montana and Idaho as the strikes happened. I lived for years on Kanaka Rapids of the Middle Snake.

[@KlingonCaptain]

That's sad. 😔

Having spend the first 20 years of my life growing up in Idaho, I knew that the Owyhee country was special because of its stark craggy beauty, but your capture of the scenery throughout the video was spectacular. Thank you for another wonderful flying buddy camping trip; I really enjoy these particular episodes... ...and Alaska would be EPIC!!!

[@Myfivestarsuccess]

You capture the FUN of bush plane flying!

Don't overfly Trent when his starlink is on, or all your kids will be born naked. Lmao 🤣😂 Beautiful video thanks for taking us along.

Hey, nice grass on the home strip 👍. Fabulous adventure flying video. 🙏 Trent. And GREAT in air photography. What spectacular shots, absolutely loved it.

[@fendr1962]

Man! This was a Trent Palmer classic epic adventure! Sooo good to see an all flying and camping get together with Trent and friends. It was so nice to wake up this morning and grab a hot cup of coffee and head out to our sun room to take off and fly with you Trent. There is just something so special about your calm demeanor that makes me relax and puts me in your passenger seat for a grand adventure. Thank you so much for your excellent video. The view, music and your commentary are better than any fiction movie one could pay to go and see. I just love what you do. Keep up the good work! I’ll raise a cup to clear skies and calm winds and happy flying! Somehow these adventures motivate me to get rolling with our RV to experience our own adventure. Time to get out of Texas and leave behind the blistering heat and head for the mountains.

[@TKMRacing]

Fly camping! Just awesome! Thanks for the great vids! Hi from South Africa!

[@michaelspunich7273]

Those EProps are really getting common.

[@calcobb442]

Fantastic videography! So enjoy Trent Palmer "Flying Adventures."

[@maxbootstrap7397]

Hey Trent! Any chance you could include google-earth placemarks for the places you land for us bush pilots who don't get to fly with you? That would be so awesome. Or maybe just create a file that contains all the places you've ever landed. Something to do when it is raining or too windy to fly. Hahaha.

[@desertfox3860]

It was good to see Ty out and about. Thanks for sharing.

[@paddylofoss]

In the early 80s I flew into Rome state with my instructor. We were under the scud trying to beat a snow storm in may to Winnemucca Nevada and the wings started to ice up, so we had no choice but to land at Rome state. There was nothing there at the time but a VOR station so we ended up spending the night in a snow storm freezing our butts off at that airstrip. About 6am we spotted these wild mustangs walking by us and we were waiting till it got warm enough to get the snow off the wings of my Cherokee, finally got out about 10AM, gassed up in yerington Nevada, then home to kcma.

[@TreDeuce-qw3kv]

Wow! Such vicarious fun and in one of my two favorite parts of Oregon, the other being the Wallowas. I have flown around the Owyhee's in an Ercoupe, but never back country landed, though, I have overland back country explored west to east and nearly destroyed a pair of hiking boots in just a week-plus 3-days. Too much camera equipment, not enough food. The Owyhees were created by the same moving hot spot that created the Yellowstone complex. It is a great rock hounding area. Thanks for the visual pucker factor adventure.

[@FPLJCB]

Okay okay. You win… this is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen. 😂

[@bobwampler3387]

[@munroeje]

Except for Ty buzzing your head on takeoff, one of the best back-country videos you’ve produced. I’d re-publish without that clip before the FAA gets a peek. Just sayin’ …

[@bradleydobie3891]

Ty is a phenomenal pilot, but man he scares me a litte sometimes with the tight manuevers he does close to the ground.

[@AlexDMast]

love the 360

[@stertsleeper]

Great video. Not to be a party pooper, but Ty needs to calm down and have a chat with him, seen lots of guys like him get hurt or worse in 30 years I've been messing around in these lil' birds.

[@CONVAIR_106]

Hey Trent, thanks so much for the video. I'm in a really rough spot currently, still trying to figure out how to make it out and really just needed some peace and calm for a moment and you uploading a 36 minute video was just a heaven sent.

[@tomkenney5365]

Great video! Looks like a lot of fun. I recently got back into flight simulators, after almost 20 years, with MSFS, and just bought the FreedomFox about a week ago. What a fun plane! There's a definite learning curve for backcountry landings, but I'm loving the challenge. Keep having fun and thanks for letting us watch!

[@jonstanney1011]

Paging Michael Bay. "Uh sir Trent has better shots now, how to proceed"

[@helioslow9244]

“Tailwheel eater” bluff! You didn’t really show the amazing view. I flew over it yesterday and wanted to land so badly. Looked very sketchy. And yes. My headset flew off right around there too. Crazy turbulence yesterday. Slats were popping out!

[@bryanbadger6841]

Good Nz morning Trent. Just calling in from almost the bottom of the world. Usual story, I stumbled on your channel, and as I like flying, I subscribed and liked. Unfortunately at least 8 or 9 years ago I had a heart event, which means under our CAA rules, I can't get a medical to fly. However, I understand that it's a possibility that with the "Experimental" like the Kitfox, there is an exemption? Note to self...I need to do some more research on that. I'm subscribed to another pilot's channel down here, so with plenty of binge watching on both the channels, I'm going to have a bit of a mission to keep up. I'm retired now, so shouldn't be too bad. Anyway many thanks for sharing. Take care mate and all the very best. Btw we have some great scenery down here, if you ever find your way here. Cheers.

[@williamweiss6128]

Yep, from Nampa. Venture around those areas sometimes. Cool geology, reminds me of old west movies.

[@Deadly_streamer]

5:18 those were some really good shots in the beginning just loved it too much. freaking crazy though these must be usual stuffs for you guys but actually i am seeing these for the first time in youtube landing in forests. i thought landing was only possible in tarmac roads. Thats beautiful plus your camera placements and getting different shots is hilarious. KEEP UP THE WORK. earned a new subscriber 🤩16:33 the view is unrealistic wow crazy. how much does that aircraft cost ?

[@moodycreek]

Props do that when they strike. Its not a flip over. Its a weird science. Also passing a commercial check with a prop strike?! 😂😂

[@RUSHGEEK2112]

I was expecting Ty to arrive 2' above ground at full speed inverted or pulling of a knife edge pass! Just saying! LOL

[@masso172]

Alright so I'm not claiming to be an expert on full scale aircraft but I have been flying RC for a while. With that being said... The guy mentioned he is running an E prop on his piston aircraft. Wouldn't this be dangerous? In the RC world, E props are indeed alot lighter, because they are not reinforced to endure the vibrations on the output shaft of a IC engine. If you put one on a gas engine, the propeller hub will eventually fatigue and shatter. Electric motors obviously have a much smoother output, therefore the props don't need added reinforcement.

[@barrygrant2907]

I really enjoy your videos, but as "tight" as you are with the FAA currently, I'm a bit surprised you posted being buzzed like that. I heard, "Oh, let's investigate that."

[@cckitcar]

hello from Poland, I am impressed by your lifestyle.. I am currently getting my license. I would like to learn more about the equipment you fly with... in our country it is a niche topic, airports are rather used. Could you recommend me some sources, best regards! Wojtek
