Josh, another great video in all respects! One thing....from initial flight training - way back when. I was always taught to treat the prop the same as the proverbial unloaded gun....don’t trust it!

[@Aviation101]

I agree! A few people called that out in the comments here, and I appreciate the feedback. We check our magnetos before shut down after every flight to make sure the off position grounds them every time, but just like a firearm, you should always assume that it’s hot and ready to go. Learning and refining every day! Thanks for the feedback.

[@LucaPierino]

it would have been a good video anyway. just look at the passenger :-P

[@woocash9530]

​@@Aviation101 I have a fear of flying and acrophobia. I was told that the best way of fighting with it is learning how flying works or what is happening, and I find your videos great, it definitely helps a lot. Thanks.

[@annsanimationaddiction8024]

Yeah my dad taught me to fear the prop lol, the only way I get close to it is to check for nicks or bends during my pre-flight. Not to mention me bonking my head into some of the bigger plane's props at the hangar I work at. I've been traumatized!

[@ErelasInglor]

Agreed, first thing I noticed/learned from this video, I freaked out a little thinking it was going to be used as a "what you should not do" but that never came. xD

[@chrisc161]

She was smiling ear to ear. Good sign for a Pilot to be.

[@Aviation101]

Hopefully she'll pursue it!

it's fun to fly in weather in a small Cessna. They were having fun. But, in case this leads further, here's a refresher course on that: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHqplZZ-oL-mqKc

Josh: shows her great pilot skills and knowledge 👨‍✈️ Her: impressed he could identify Magenta. 🤣

[@Aviation101]

Thanks everyone for the great feedback! This was a short, relatively last-minute flight. That morning, the plan was to put Peyton in the left seat and get her acquainted with basic stick-and-rudder flying in VFR weather, but the clouds just wouldn't lift. We were going to just scrub, but decided that since we already had the plane fueled and pre-flighted, lets just go do an IFR proficiency flight for myself. It was fun! Thanks for watching. Please leave any feedback you might have in the comments!

That look that she gave you when you greased that landing 😬.

Relax everyone. There's a difference between looking at someone because you're falling on love and when you total admire and respect them for what they do. She clearly respects and admires him. That's what y'all are seeing.

[@Hester23BearsCHx]

At 12:30, I wanna add to what you said regarding getting your PPL. Once I got mine I felt like finally had a good understanding of aviation as a whole. Could not have been farther than the truth lol. Day after my checkride I flew my Grumman across FL from FXE to DAB and wow was that a learning experience. One of the best days of my life no doubt, but I was left with more questions about flying, weather, aircraft systems, than I had while I was a student. Another great video Josh, thanks for doing what you do!

[@Aviation101]

Thanks for sharing some words of wisdom! I appreciate the support!

[@djbred18]

You flew into KDAB? That can be a stressful flight

[@JamesWilliams-en3os]

Very true. I got my PP about 25 hours after I bought my first airplane, a 172XP, and thought I knew what I was doing. But next 300 hours/2 years in that bird was a continual progressive learning experience. And the learning has never stopped, 500 hours later. A good pilot never stops learning.

[@777SHW]

She was glowing!!! You have created memories for her to last a lifetime. Great job, Josh.

[@brennenfitzgerald]

The one thing I have admired for several years about your channel...... you make aviation appear much more accessible than others do. Whether in a King Air, SR22T, or a little Cherokee, there’s always a sense that you couldn’t be happier in any other plane at that time. I hope your voice to the next generation of aviators is listened to because it’s refreshing.

[@Aviation101]

I appreciate that!

[@nicholoncuffie2269]

The fact that she asked so many questions...and you were perfectly capable with an appropriate response every time..was such an amazing help for me. The basic knowledge is so often overlooked in aviation videos

This trip has produced some of the best and most challenging flying of all your videos Josh. Nothing tame about the trip at all. I really think you have inspired Peyton to pursue that license to learn. Thanks for taking us along.

When I got my license in 93` as a 19 year old from the UK I did it in Georgia and check ride in Alabama in 20kt winds in PA28 Warrior was a challenge but got through it, that took me 10 weeks with intensive training being from abroad I had flight to catch. you could do it in Florida and get it done in 3-5 weeks if time is precious. its far to expensive in this modern age to continue flying like I did 20 odd years ago so had to let it go shame but so glad I achieved it when I did.

Good looking lad like Josh with his head screwd on and his heart is in the clouds, clearly has a gorgeous girl smitten. Great job flying Josh and I like your moves👍

[@LeeKobe1]

Outstanding video! Hopefully she wasn't overwhelmed with all of the IFR info. I got my PPL later in life and glad I was able to focus just on the VFR portion. Decided to just be a proficient VFR pilot as I have no commercial aspirations. When faced with IMC, I will always delay or divert, but your video's are always overflowing with great info. Just an aside, I always ask for hood time during my BFR's and fly safety as often as possible for the IFR folks, to keep sharp on basic instrument skills/procedures.

[@frankpoynter6350]
