VISION JET TRANSITION? FLIGHT VLOG

Today's flight takes me solo from Provo, Utah to Hawthorne, California for the take off and cruise portion. I had many questions regarding my transition to the SF-50 so today we discuss it enroute.
Catch Part 2. of the arrival into Hawthorne!

Great vid, perfect music. Honoring your brother … very touching. From a fellow G2+ owner and pilot.

[@bigdadgo]

Thank you for sharing this video. I’m sorry about your brother. I lost my older son recently. His brother and I still have daily struggles with his passing so we feel your loss. 🙏🏼

[@robsteal3887]

Thank you for posting up all of that info and insight on flying the Vision jet, transition, insurance and comparisons with other aircraft, very valuable.

[@monsterzero760]

First time here and I am very impressed with you video. Thank you sir and God bless you and your family.

[@user-rq4yn8do7o]

Love it bug! We loved the video!

[@mikekaduce]

captivating video, start to finish - I love the Vision Jet by virtue of its representation in Microsoft Flight Simulator and it's sweet to see the real deal. lots of videos out there highlight the Vision Jet, but yours kept me entertained for every minute. happy to subscribe! keep it up man

[@MBeppi]

As long as it got good flight deck views I’m happy 🎉

[@sasquash4321]

Nice video, great music. Can’t wait to see your future videos, I’m already subscribed.

[@sasbenjr]

Nice ride. I just picked up my G7 from TN early May. Nice transition from my SR G2. One day I hope to be a big boy with a Visjon Jet

[@lornecunningham326]

What a Gorgeous Jet 🤙

[@VolkerBoehm]

my favorite vid all over at the moment, thx from hamburg

[@lucashellf]

wonderful video, i will definitely keep watching your videos

[@justinthomas2538]

keep em coming! Love the vids

[@AirspotterUK]

Hi, I just found you, great video, right length, like the vibe, Vision jets are great. Please keep up the videos.

[@itstheclarks]

Yo what cameras you using. Great clean video great talking points. Keep posting more. Landing videos and takes offs are my favorites. Also maybe do a video on how to fully start the jet

[@KutWrite]

New to your channel. I'm glad the opening music is better than the previous (newer) video. So I assume you rotate it. Beautiful plane! I got an intro to it when Citation Max upgraded fr;om his (I think) SR-22 to the jet. I love the way it flies, on camera, anyway. I prefer what you showed here, a bit of preflight planning, startup, and only radio and ambient sound - your audio and video are well set up. I watch at 1.5x speed due to my attention span. I'll check back and see about subbing. I'll look for prior videos to see if you 'splain who you are, what kind of flying you/your company do/does, etc. Maybe your pilot history as well. I like that stuff.

[@rtuck27]

This was very cool man! I’m flying at UVU right now! It’s awesome to see you flying out of there too. I’ll definitely be following along. It’s a small world, I’m sure we’ll cross paths at some point!

[@larryegilman1]

Beautiful airplane, how about showing us the panel when you are doing your startup. We see fingers moving, but would like to see what they are touching

[@msabol01]

Great tribute to your brother, just an FYI, once you reserve a tail number it is your until you transfer it to your airplane or you don't renew it after 12 months. FAA sends reminders. Good luck!

[@Ryan-719]

Great video!

[@denniswagner3962]

Great information.

[@larrytompkins4408]

Thank you for the information,

[@U812b4]

It's cool to watch. I can't even fly a kite

[@brianrivera3974]

New subscriber here, very nice vision jet, thanks so much for all the info haven’t started flying yet, but the vision jet is for sure the dream plane, gunna have to settle for a v tail bonanza for now

[@StephenMongie]

We all start somewhere, before you know it you’ll be in the flight levels!

[@ibtm]

Like to see approaches and the button pushing

[@tracyj1961]

When you get the runway in sight it would be nice if you added an arrow on the screen pointing out runway. Enjoy videos thanks.

[@shadowdarkfall]

I just was in Hawthrone , had to get my birth certificate, nuts appraoch, should come to vegas for the FSEXPO, flying in there to HND

[@slapshot1343]

Hey Stephen! I would love to see the In-flight weather radar! Not the XM-radar..

[@StephenMongie]

You’ve got it

[@ady9910]

I didn't know we have a vision jet in PVU haha. I fly Airbus out of PVU and I love working here. Definitely not an everyday easy airport to fly into as a big jet.

[@StephenMongie]

The circling NA for 31 is a killer in the winter! I don’t know how you guys manage it.

[@fedcopp]

Can you do a vid on the start up sequence for the vision jet?

[@Badge-vo7hq]

Great content just subd

[@aviatortrevor]

Being in an aisle with other hangars there, I get worried you'll either have a hangar neighbor start to pull into your alley and block you, or someone behind you who is quicker wants out and you're blocking them. Why not taxi out of the alleyway first, and then perform all your checklists and stuff once you're not in the alleyway?

[@182plunky]

Awesome video! Thanks for posting. I was wondering, does anyone charter vision jets? Could you yourself start chartering your jet out if you wanted? I wonder how difficult it would be to find customers.

[@StephenMongie]

Regulations are extremely strict on charters especially with owners so the short answer is no I can’t charter. There is a group called verijet that specializes in VJ charters though

[@jaimemendoza9316]

Could you please show us how you flight plan?

[@jimkress5929]

do you use your jet for a job or something or just for fun?? just found your Chanel love all the info

[@StephenMongie]

For work

[@l-vinotrading4450]

Can you show us where you store things like keys, phone, etc? Does it have cupholders? 🤣

[@oralivingco.5669]

Wanting to learn and get my pilots license. There is a Cirrus instructor at my local airport. What do you recommend for people wanting to learn to fly and wanting to fly a SR-22 to a Vision Jet?

[@user-qf2qb6eg7t]

What APP was that you opened in the tablet whats called ? For what OS Android or APLLE Tablets of IPHONES PCs ? Thanks

[@donaldthomas1963]

it cost $10 to reserve a tail number

[@2good4you_mj37]

can you take me to oshkosh please

[@DanFrederiksen]

How can you afford it and have you regretted not getting an Eclipse instead yet?

[@narcisoperez2678]

What you do with this plane for make money ? Or it’s just for hobby

[@speedracer9132]

What line of work can I try getting into that could let me afford this kind of lifestyle? I’m going to college for computer science, but I don’t understand how even a 100k salary can afford a jet like this

[@JakeTishman]

It can’t

[@FrapachinoPlz]

This may sound cliche’ Time to invest in 2 or 3 other cameras, definitely need a POV

[@GregGreenwald-iy2ul]

You talk too fast when getting clearance delivery. Surprised ATC hasn’t asked you to repeat your read back. Still enjoy the videos!!

[@papanovember0309]

Are you owner of this airplane or you rent It ? Beaty airplane :-) my wet dream. When I get rich I will buy one of this and lern to flight :D

[@josephavila7178]

More music please. Louder too, couldn't focus on the video without it

[@jamesjacobs4209]

Please take this as constructive criticism. You use umm way to much. You don't have to fill every second with something. Other than that, I like your channel so far.

[@StephenMongie]

Yeahhhh… it’s something I need to work on. I find myself using filler words and phrases wayyy too much.

[@ClouDAction.]

23:00 It's a pity that you have such a negative opinion about flight simulators and people for whom it is a hobby. ): There's a pretty good Vision Jet in MSFS. Its owners are probably your viewers or potential viewers. Maybe you should give Flight FX's SF50 Vision Jet G2 a chance in Microsoft Flight Simulator? (;

[@StephenMongie]

Take a look at Swiss001 and Austin Meyers videos on the VJ. They had a race that was beyond rigged and then Austin made a video about why the VJ was so slow that had a very weird energy behind it. It’s created a weird movement around making fun of the VJ in the flight sim world that doesn’t have much merit and that’s where my frustration comes from. I got into aviation through flight sim and I still love the community behind it. What I hate is people making videos that “inform” others on why the vision jet is such a bad airplane and they base the entirety of their knowledge off of how it flies in MSFS or Xplane. I hope that clears that up.

[@ClouDAction.]

@@StephenMongie As you probably know, Swiss001 and Austin Meyers are not the best representation of the flight sim community. (; There are tons of people who are very happy with the Vision Jet in MSFS, including its performance and especially how pleasant it is to fly. Is there any chance you could test Vision Jet in MSFS and let us know what you think? Peace! (:

[@StephenMongie]

@@ClouDAction. I’ve been working on getting a setup for Vatsim for the future but it’s a bit of a ways out. I’ll let you know!

[@Stebnalang1]

The music is too loud and is distracting from the video. Please less music.
