In this episode I use an Axis in ear headset - I've been testing a few different brands of in ear, and this is my least favourite so far. The mic is... not great, and the wire routing is also poor. I've bent the headset multiple ways, but just can't get it right. You'll be seeing other in ear passive headsets in future episodes.

[@WingsOverTO]

Sweet. I've toyed on and off with trying out the Bose in-ear option, but have been hoping someone in a small piston would show their experience first. :)

[@GlensHangar]

@@WingsOverTO I've tried the Axis, Quiet Tech Halo, and the Clarity Aloft - They all worked pretty well with the out of the box ear foam, but much better with the custom made ear molds. Each has benefit and draw backs, and if I could I'd take what I like from all three and make a fourth version that has the best mic, the best cord placement, the most comfortable head band, and the easiest controls with bluetooth.

[@sip4751]

The winter hat problem yes. Been wondering about getting the passive in ear too. BTW on the channel thing, maybe consider the float idea a bit. There's a lot of KZbinrs flying from field to field, and there are people doing STOL stuff on land. We are in the land of lakes and there are places you can only go to with a seaplane. Although I guess with the O300 your useful is likely a pack of matches after floats and fuel.

I've been watching your cooking channel for years, and you've taught me so much. Now I'm really enjoying this channel also. Thank you, Glen.

[@kevintaylor791]

I maintain that you are the perfect guy to cover the food at Osh. Not just the vendors, but what is being made in the campground too.

[@francoisbeaulieu179]

That’d be a nice way to get footage for the cooking channel while still taking more time to fly!

[@JakeHillion]

Your cinematography brought me to the food channel, and I'm really glad you share your passion for flying too. The info overlays in this video are fantastic. I will gladly keep watching these videos as they are, but some "epic" content where you really flex your filmmaking would be amazing.

[@kazflight]

Whatever you choose to post, I'll be watching! I'm looking forward to your future adventures. Hopefully we will run into each other for 2024.

[@JerryB507]

As a fan of both channels, I wouldn't be heartbroken if Cocktails After Dark took a break if it meant more content from Canucks Unlimited. Of course, CAD is probably the least of the 3 as far as historical research goes and Sunday's the most. Cheers from California, USA

[@rabbmuhammad2900]

I found your channel a couple weeks ago when I was searching KZbin for videos on “pre buy inspections” (because I’m in the process of purchasing an older aircraft myself), and I fell down a rabbit hole watching the process you went through over the past few years of upgrading & learning about Mike Victor Uniform. I hope to be as thorough as you were in your aircraft ownership experience. Where ever you take the channel in 2024 I’m onboard. Suggestion… Perhaps do a recap upload of what you’ve done with C-FMVU over the years. What really engaged me with your videos was that you included the not so sexy part of aviation: The maintenance. The perspective that shows all the wrench turning and inspections required to keep aircraft airworthy isn’t shown so much on KZbin

[@deansiracusa3966]

Well done with a gusty, crosswind landing!

[@GlensHangar]

Thanks Dean!

[@user-yw6ob2rn7k]

Not a pilot but I really enjoy your content, Glen. Really thought this video especially was neat because you could see that the horizon was stabilized, and as a result it really showed how bumpy it was for you because you could see the movement of the plane in the sky. It really helped (for me at least) put us in the plane with you. Keep up the great work!

[@MichelleJSmithNH]

Would love to see fly-ins to different locations and overlap with Glen & Friends with some on-site food prep, or picnics you prepped before, or interesting foods to try locally. We enjoy all the aerial views while you fly and the information you provide about the areas you visit. Even if some of us don’t fly we can enjoy the sharing of information about how to have great food experiences while adventuring!

[@AlexLplus]

Nice the new information overlays !

[@emkav551]

What you so on both channels is awesome. I really enjoy both channels and often cook the recipes you do on Glen and Friends. I wonder if a series on cooking food special to the destination/farmers markets orjust groceries bought outside of your home base. Maybe picking your favourite community cookbook and then visiting that area and exploring could be another series and cross over ( could be fly in or drive in in bad flying weather). What ever it is will I be watching.

[@Kervalen1]

Nice crosswind landing, sir.

[@davlogic]

Glenn, don’t reduce your cooking show episodes, me & wife really love them. I saw you mentioned your flying channel so here I am. I was in the USAF ground radio repair & your ATC conversations bring back memories of me working with controllers. I still remember having a conversations with ATC getting permission to cross the runway to service the RSU’s ( Runway Supervisory Units). I still don’t understand many of the conversations ATC say so a quality headset is mandatory IMO.

[@Jugheadf15]

Head to HSF and cover some of the food trucks and private lakebed cooking activities. It may not be fancy, but it would be related and unique. I wish I knew you were coming to Dynon. You were 5 miles from me. I would have loved to take you out flying int he 170 and introduce you to some mountains and riverbed flying.

[@GlensHangar]

I'll get out that way again sometime this year - That trip to Dynon was in and out in 3 days, with a trip up to Bellingham to see Six Pack. Next time I come out I'll be in touch, and I'll bring my helmet!

[@DavidCollinsRivera]

Glen, how about a Duncan Hines style road trip (air trip?), sampling/reviewing the restaurants and diners you try out wherever you travel to this year? It could be a crossover style project between your two channels. Remember, Hines only did brief outlines of each place he went to, so you wouldn't have to go in depth, or bother with buckets of B-roll. Maybe a brief outline of the local airport/airstrip and the facilities that can be found there, then a shot of the exterior of the restaurant, and then you and Julie can give your impressions of the place once you're back in the air. And if you really don't like a restaurant or locale, but you don't want to be mean, you just don't mention it on camera. I think a lot of people would watch it, as you'd be appealing to the interests of both your audiences.

[@GlensHangar]

That's one of the things I'd like to incorporate -

[@caveweta]

Those of us who enjoy both channels will take anything you give us and be grateful. Would you get far enough north to camp and see the northern lights? Now that would be exciting.

[@brettholland1687]

In regards to Oshkosh, when I watched that video I was in complete agreement with you not filming. You needed that time to focus on the event and interacting with people. For this year, is it possible to bring someone with you or partner with a local person to do most of the filming for you? That way you can still focus on Oshkosh.

[@GlensHangar]

Oshkosh isn’t in the cards this year, we’re taking off for a huge flight across Canada and into the high Arctic. Julie will help out during Oshkosh 2025.

[@BKincaid]

I would LOVE to see you kind of "join" the 2 channels by making some of your amazing recipes into DIY Dehydrated Meals and then use those on some flight based camp trips. I know that's not at all close to anything your channels do, but I think that would be super cool.

[@Emmilythecat]

Nice landing Glen. I have flown with my father in gusty winds like that. You just never know when one is going to throw the plane.

[@AW-fb8hr]

I remember Glen saying on his cooking channel "KZbin money doesn't even cover our groceries" amazing how things have changed. He bought a plane

[@coreymcdonald7745]

I mean, he does have his own business, outside of KZbin.

[@michaellyon9220]

Glenn , looking forward to you expanding things in this channel like camping meeting other people that sounds great 👍🏻 I don’t like camping, I don’t like bears I don’t like creepy things that bite I’m more of a glamper I would say But seeing a bit of the outdoors and seeing the wood smoke burning would be awesome .

[@minuteman4199]

Would love to see a trip to the Arctic Ocean!!

[@tomdchi12]

I've zoomed in and out on the Arctic Ocean coast in Google Earth... it would be fantastic to see you guys fly there! Personally, I'd love to see the nitty gritty of planning a long, remote trip like that, but I don't know how much your audience are pilots versus general. I've been following Becki and Chris for quite a while and they really do create amazing videos (and clearly put in a huge amount of effort to do so.) I've been assuming I'd eventually move to the default Bose ANR headset, but I am quite interested to hear more about less expensive in-ear options.

[@GlensHangar]

There's one I bought after I tried it on at Oshkosh: the "Quiet Tech Halo". Not TSO certified for 121 or 135 ops (if that matters to you), and only $350 usd. Still doing long term testing, but so far solid, and as quiet as ANR headsets with or without custom ear molds. You'll see them in videos soon.

[@maplesyrup76]

Love to see you land in and tour some northern communities along the opening up northwest passage like Kuglucktuk. I find it fascinating how human accelerated climate change is opening up the far north at a rapid rate. I'd imagine these small fly in and boat in communities on the passage will change quite a bit over the coming decades as sea traffic and resource extraction take hold. Be a neat trip but a lot of fuel, time and planning.

[@melissalaberge4683]

Amazing content Glen! Such a treat to follow your flights! As a low time pilot, love the atc and radio calls, how you post frequencies, atc instructions etc!! On your longer flight from CYAM to CYOO, I was calculating ground speed, eta to next check point, pinpoint location and looking for fields for emergency landings...lol. It's so helpful, and as a pilot building time in the CYLS area, watching you fly in to airports I haven't yet visited, makes it a little more familiar! Thanks so much and can't wait to see what's next!

[@CLTGeek]

I was literally typing a comment to ask what sunglasses those were when you mentioned them! Hope Flying Eyes takes you up on that.

[@larsen8059]

Nice landing! Looking forward to all your content. Stay warm.

[@user-mb9mo8ku8w]

It would be interesting if you could fly over the Voyageurs' route from the Ottawa River into the Great Lakes and give some narrative about the route. Thanks

[@glennmullis1477]

I really appreciate and enjoy your videos ❤

[@MayhemCanuck]

I would follow this channel regardless of the content, I did get one of your MVU hats when you had them up for sale, maybe some more merch to add funds to the Arctic trip :)

[@briane4753]

Dropping the food channel down for the plane channel? Nooooooooo 😭 Of course, do what you love rather than what randos in the comments say. 😊 But I will miss the extra content on the food channel - that was where I found you and what drew me to you and Julie. The plane channel is much more niche - I’ll never own a plane, so it’s more like “I wonder what Glen and Julie are up to” than appointments viewing like the cooking channel. Best of luck in 2024!

[@vdubboy85225]

So excited and hopeful for you and Julie for 2024.

[@oldschoolmedia]

I've been watching your cooking channel consistently for almost 5yrs now, usually watch the videos the day they come out. What I love about that channel is when you explain the history, or the science why certain ingredients are used. This channel intrigues me with the mechanical aspect, but I'd love for you to show more footage of where your flying and maybe talk about where your at, maybe interesting historical facts of what your flying over (less "talking head" video)? I know it's prob not exciting to to you but I've never been to Canada and I have no idea whats going on outside that plane, lol. Love the channels!

[@werewolf2003002]

If you've got STOL capability with that plane, might be cool to see you meet up with Trent Palmer and company at some point

[@BentendoGameBoy]

Meeting up with other youtubers would be entertaining (and good for promoting the channel). I'd also love to see some crossover with the cooking channel. Maybe some recipes or ingredients inspired by trips you take. I feel it would build interest with viewers who might otherwise not know of or be interested in this channel.

Love your flying plans for 2024…. hope to see some great video…. Love your cooking channels

Good stuff man if you’re gonna head to Northern Saskatchewan, you should check out Cree Lake lodge.

[@danmcbride6258]

Do a video in Edenvale Airport. Great facility and the Museum is very interesting. To add content, spend time at your destinations. Canadian Towns and Cities/ History

[@twiztedsynz]

If you do fly east, hit up Moncton and the Fundy region - my area of the Country. It's lovely from the air around here, and so easy to see PEI without even hitting that airspace, or NS. The Confed Bridge is pretty cool to see from the sky, too. Can't wait to see where you go, Glen!

[@sennest]

Glen, you did promise - back country fly-in camping videos. Try it. Really anything you do cinematographic wise is amazing.

[@GlensHangar]

Our attempts summer 2023 were derailed by forest fires, and blankets of smoke. Hoping for a more tame fire season in 2024.

[@chrischain_]

Those are some real bucket list locations to visit in Canada using an airplane! I don't think the remote, usually almost only aviation accessible, places in mid to northern Canada are mentioned or visited enough in aviation KZbin. Looking forward to your trips and another year of expanding on both yours and the aircraft's capabilities!

[@healerf18]

I would love to see the follow up data on fuel efficiency, etc. after after replacing one of the mags with electronic ignition.

[@d14551]

A video of your trip to the Arctic Ocean would be great. So far, anything you have talked about and explained on either channel has been very interesting to me. I think you have a real knack for that. Going from three to two videos on the cooking channel sounds very reasonable to me.

[@marleyanalytics]

Thanks for having so much integrity when it comes to ads. Whatever you decide to do, I'm sure it will be tasteful (no pun intended).

[@justinwilliams173]

If you want to find extra time and are busy with the cooking channel, you could schedule two weeks of guest content from the friends. Take submissions and highlight different friends and their cooking. Tom Scott used to do guest submissions about once a year for his channel when he needed a break.

[@anthonykorsman2066]

If you decide to head north consider stopping at Atlin BC. It's a little town at the end of the road. About 2 hours from Whitehouse. The gold rush went through it.

[@wallymurray620]

I like the idea of exploring more of Canada even if that’s just heading a a few hours out and finding a nice camping spot. The trip to northern Saskatchewan looks like it could be amazing and show a part of Canada that most of us haven’t seen or perhaps even heard about. And as I really enjoy your cooking channel, maybe a Glen and Friends from the campsite. When you went south to your cousins cabin last year you showed you don’t need a fully stocked kitchen to still make some great food, what could we see from the campsite? Also, I like the labels that you have coming up now that show things like airspeed, flap positioning, etc.

[@watashiandroid8314]

Smooth landing 👏 Did they place that play equipment so perfectly in line with the runway with the hope that a plane would eventually crash into it and give them a reason to get the airport closed? 😬

[@user-mb9mo8ku8w]

[@WingsOverTO]

I'm with you - I haven't flown in a month now because the weather has been so crappy. First just too cloudy, and now just too cold! What's the point? It's not like I NEED to be somewhere. But hopefully in the next few days as it warms up again.

[@gerardacronin334]

The Arctic trip sounds fascinating! As you will be going to very remote locations, it would be a good idea to carry a remote data tracker. Maybe you could get a sponsor. There is a Canadian company called Solara that produces these trackers.

[@rhkennerly]

Sponsorship: check with iHood, usb battery pack heated vests & jackets (& charges your phone or runs a camera at the same time). My plane doesn't have heat, but I don't care. I'm toasty with jacket, socks & gloves wired for heat. Besides, I stopped trusting that coffee can around the exhaust pipe contraption a long time ago. Every winter it will gas some family into a smoking hole.

[@richardselkow105]

I need the ad you're cooking show and your flying show together some how. Fly to BBQ cooking competition.

[@billclisham8668]

For me, the mechanical videos are the most interesting because I know I will never be able to get my pilots license due to a fairly mild stroke I had several years ago. I wonder how many people would be interested in a video on a historic airplane, maybe something at the Bushplane Museum or a WW2 plane at the Yankee air museum in Michigan?

[@toddmadsen2732]

[@ohblahdeohbladah]

Nicely done crosswind landing. Yours is my favorite aviation channel, no histrionics, just a straight forward log of your learning experiences in getting back in to aviation. I spent 30+ years flying as a military and commercial pilot and my first solo was in a very similar Cessna 172 (T-41) of late ‘60’s vintage. Alas I am an armchair pilot now due to health reasons and look forward to every one of your videos. Ear mold on a non cancelling headset was my favorite, I used one mated to the company issued Telex when I was flying the Boeing 737. They have the noisiest cockpit of all the narrow bodies as Boeing stuck that nose on them all from the 707 on. An old Captain on the 727 told me the thing that limited the airspeed was speaker volume.

[@Vee_H.]

Northern Canada is very beautiful. I've seen a few videos on it and would like to visit one day. Tuktoyaktuk is the most Northern town in Canada that is still connected to the North American Road Network,

One of your ideas for last summer was to visit some remote communities that are only accessible by air. I was very interested in that.

I guess my last comment was a tad wordy? Sorry. I hope you and Julie will try to meet up/fly in with some of the other popular Aviation YT'ers for chats about aviation and maybe cooking a meal with them. I do wish you'd get your SEL-I, Glen, because even in the summer, en route weather may change abruptly. IFR currency could really save your bacon. ( not a reference to your awesome cooking and mixology channel, which I enjoy as well). Taking on sponsors? Why not? Especially if they are products you use and enjoy. Cheers. - John.

[@GlensHangar]

IFR isn't in the cards until the plane is equipped, and given the cost I just don't see that happening. I've reached out to most of the bigger US based YT channels, many of them I met last summer at Oshkosh - none have replied, so we'll see what happens. There is a collab coming in the next few weeks with a couple of local KZbinrs: Wings Over TO, and Donats Flying Adventure. We had a great time flying and filming!
