If you are a pilot, I don’t have to tell you the historical significance of First Flight Airport (KFFA) where Wright Brother's Monument is located. Flying to the site where mankind's first power flight took place has been on my bucket list before I even became a pilot. I've always heard about this airport being challenging to get into due to the constant wind at Kill Devil Hills, North Carolina...

Before I graduated from college, I made a promise that someday I would fly my own plane back to Ann Arbor to watch a Michigan Wolverines Football game. Recently I flew my Cirrus SR22 back to the University of Michigan and fulfilled this promise. My buddy Braulio (fellow pilot and Bonanza owner) came along for the ride. We took off from Farmingdale Republic Airport (KFRG) around 4:30PM and arriv...

Eliza and Henna asked me to take them flying in my Cirrus SR22 G6. Since both of them are nervous fliers, I thought the best way to calm their nerves is to fly the New York City Skyline tour followed by lunch at the world famous Frank Pepe's for its legendary white clam pizza. I've included almost all of the ATC audios from take off most of the Hudson River VFR Corridor (SFRA). So please join u...
Which is faster "door to door"? Cirrus SR22 or an Airliner? #cirrus
Просмотров 48 тыс.2 года назад
If you are a pilot, chances are you've been asked if flying your own plane is faster than flying a commercial airliner. I've decided to put this to test: my friends flew on an airliner while my wife and I took our Cirrus SR22. We flew from Republic Airport (KFRG) in Farmingdale, NY to Mont-Tremblant International Airport (CYFJ) in La Macaza, Quebec. Which do you think will be faster door to doo...

Prior to owning our own plane, we were unfamiliar with the maintenance process. We always thought this is a complicated and time consuming process. Thanks to Cirrus Aircraft and its nice network of Cirrus Service Centers (CSC) servicing your Cirrus couldn't be easier. With that said, not all CSC are the same - about a dozen of us from the Long Island area flies to US Flight Aircraft Maintenance...
Why did he buy a Beechcraft Bonanza over a Cirrus SR22?
Просмотров 62 тыс.2 года назад
My friend is a big fan of the Cirrus SR Series. He was trained in a Cirrus SR20 and has quite a few hours in both the SR20 and SR22. Yet for his first plane, he bought a Bonanza F33A instead. Why did he do that? Because of of the cost. The Beechcraft Bonanza is often considered as one of the top alternatives to the Cirrus SR22. This Bonanza will achieve 90% of a SR22's performance at 25% of the...

With the promise of going to one of the best restaurants in Atlantic City, two friends agreed to hop in my Cirrus SR22 G6 for a nice dinner. One of them, John, was a student pilot, owned a 1977 Piper Cherokee, didn't finish his pilot's certificate and hasn't flown in over 15 years. The other, Steve, always had the perception that small plane is just that: small, cramped and uncomfortable. After...

Any cost comparison yearly between the two? Hopefully he has kept good data over the years and would be willing to share yearly Mx cost.
His annual was $2,500, while the Cirrus is around $6,000 - $15,000. Operating cost is not really comparable between the two as the two are completely different technology platforms. It's like comparing a modern Ferrari vs a classic Corvette.
@@SlowAsianDriver wow big difference. I plan on redoing an A36 with all glass g3x etc. Nice to have even slight ballpark numbers. Thank you for sharing this info, very helpful. Also, please tell your friend we said thank you as well!
Pls hit me up on IG and I can put you in touch with him.
Hey I’m looking to get my pilots certificate and took a discovery flight out of republic. Looking to find a community in my area of people within aviation. Would love to talk if you have the time! Love the videos
Hit me up on IG.
@@SlowAsianDriver just sent a follow request 👍🏼
Got it. Feel free to msg me with any questions. Be happy to help.
I think you should get tail number that ends with “FU2”. 😎
😂 only if.
Good to see you again!
thanks Mark!
Glad to see you back! Looking forward to your new adventures.
Thanks pal!
Exciting, welcome back John.
Thanks pal! :)
@@SlowAsianDriversupposed to fly there for fluke fishing. Hopefully will accomplish it before season ends 🤣😎
I fly out of N12 airport, 10 miles south of KBLM , i go often to ACY and as soon as you said that i was like did i just hear your going to Atlantic City and then you corrected yourself, great video as always welcome back !!
Definitely getting rusty...lol. Thank you for the support :)
Congrats on the new G7 coming!
Thanks! Can't wait!
Awesome!
Thanks!
"I'm glad you're back."
glad to be back! :)
Glad to see you're still making videos! Really hoping we get a vid on the new G7 when it arrives.
Thank you for the support and there will be a vid on the G7...just gonna be a while. :)
Welcome back!
Thanks pal!
Glad you’re getting another one. I loved that SR22. What color this time? 👍
Most likely Rosso Cross...unless Cirrus comes out with an awesome yellow. Got plenty time to decide...lol.
Look who is back!
I leveled up from a 2007 Prius (miss you, snowflake!) to a 2024 Y performance. Holy expletive.
You are gonna love your new Bougie ride…🤣
I thought SR22 cruises at 170kts.
At Rich of Peak it will easily cruise at 170+ TAS...with a fuel flow of 17~18 GPH. At Lean of Peak, it will cruise around 160 TAS with a fuel flow of 12.5~13 GPH. Most of Cirrus drivers fly LOP.
@@SlowAsianDriver I see, thanks for the explanation.
@@SlowAsianDriver thanks for the info, btw as a Chinese, I can't help but noticed your tail number is very special, did you choose them or was it just asigned to you? XD
you can reserve them just like car license plate.
@@SlowAsianDriver Haha congrats on owning such a special plane. This also reminds me of the old days when after each training session, my instructor always said to me:"Another landing is done, we can both foxtrot oscar now." XD
You’re a month past your deadline for a new video 😢 I’d be happy just seeing a video of you showing a rendering of the new plane !
My day job has been kicking my butt. New video dropping Thursday.
You are indeed “my husband “ too … the “perfect driver “😂😂🤣😂
🤣🤣🤣. A few weeks ago I laughed at my wife for getting a red light ticket. Well as Karma would have it, I got one today, too. 🤦🏻♂️
First, LOVE the profile name. Second, couldn’t help but notice (and appreciate) how courteous you were to everyone. Well done!
thanks so much pal! doesn't cost me anything to be nice and courteous. :)
Friends don't let friends fly plastic airplanes. Always thought the F33A was the perfect Bonanza. The lines look perfectly balanced....A36 looks like the fuselage behind the wings is too long. Just like the 310R...longer nose on the R model made it look PERFECT.
Every time I step off an A36 I feel like my fat butt is gonna lift the nose wheel off the ground...lol. Btw, you should try the new Cirrus...it's pretty spectacular.
Remember that acceleration boost cost a lot of money and don't come with mags, the price difference is not so far. so I get the P too.
Does the LR model feel like it doesnt launch from a stop before and/or after getting the acceleration boost? Drove a demo Model Y LR today at Tesla and it felt underwhelming upon acceleration, more of a gradual increase in power as it gained speed. While the car said "standard," I am wondering if the demo model hindered any bit of launch. Performance model definitely pulls u back in the seat.
Does anyone know how much it costs more to insure the Performnance, if any?
You motivate me. I appreciate these videos.
Glad you like them!
i hate the cirrus and i dont trust to fly one
I've got the MYLR in Toronto Canada and I had points from my friend who bought a Tesla using my referral code so I used it to get acceleration boost and you get it for good and I did not have to buy it. Plus I have a 7 seater MYLR. Definitely better than the performance.
That's a very nice paint job.
Nice video! Thank you for posting your great content/videos with KFRG departures.. they are fantastic and well done. Don't stop!! You're inspiring. Wish I could get back there (I stopped after instrument rating).
Thank you very much!
When you’re doing your pre flight planning just wondering if you ever consider when in the ice what if the engine quit? What’s your thoughts? Cirrus is a very capable IFR aircraft but still only a single engine. Not sure if I’d Plan on being in the ice in any piston single for a climb.
Even if Cirrus has FIKI, it’s not meant to be in the ice. When I plan, i always plan an “out”. On this leg I knew we will be punching through a relatively mild layer to get on top of the layers. It was only for a short duration hence we made a go decision.
Love the professionalism and attention to detail in all your videos.
I appreciate that!
Love the clear radio transmissions. Thank you for letting us be apart of this and sharing the video. Time is the most expensive commodity in the world!
Our pleasure!
I love your content.
Thanks Gary!
Badass plane even more badass pilot, pure masterclass on comms
Thanks pal!
AB for sure... tires are cheaper than performance and nearly identical performance really. Much better value for the money
You're wife is wonderful. She grinded the rims on your Tesla just so you could do a DYI video on how to fix it.
Quem procura acha… sempre tem um mais forte que você… respeito é a melhor atitude
I wouldn’t do that in that plane. Those planes are slow, no bathroom, can’t hold 4 people and petrol and any luggage. Better off just taking a high speed train if you have them in that country. We have cheap flights that fly out all the time so I haven’t had to own a plane in 5 years since my 28 birthday.
LOL high speed train in the US. Also it’s 1000 miles!
awesome video. Thanks so much for sharing!
Our pleasure!
What a cool trip!
thanks ian!
why no vids in 9 months????
Plane was sold in October and my new plane SR22 G7 isn’t arriving until 2025. Plus a major work project just came online last summer and is about to be wrapped up. Thanks for your patience, but there will be new vid coming within the next 60 days :)
@@SlowAsianDriver big difference in planes old one vs new one?
Yes…the price tag. 😅. Actually the G7’s avionics package and interior are incredible. Is it worth the extra $100K? That’s TBD.
So far, my favorite thing about a Cirrus is A/C. It's so underrated holding short for a few landings in July
How did I (we) flew planes without a/c is beyond me. 🤣
PERFORMANCE WITH ACCELERATION BOOST PLEASE
The selfie count is annoying.
Not turbo, correct? I haven't even started lessons yet but have been debating it for a long time. Seems like the most updated, most capable plane. If I stick with it this is what I'm buying.
Cirrus is an amazing and well rounded plane. Yes this one isn’t a turbo.
@@SlowAsianDriver It's beautiful inside and out. Seems well behaved from what owners have said. Thanks for the video and response. Any chance you would consider doing a real cost of ownership video? There's some out there but updates are always welcome with how outrageous inflation is.
i thought about it, but the cost is quite dynamic.
@@SlowAsianDriver that's why we need it! Lol
great video. it my dream to be able to do this one day
You can hear Farmingdale State 50 on the frequency while climbing out of FRG. My son flew that plane many times. He now flies mostly FRG62 or FRG63. Farmingdale State College uses those two planes for Commercial Rating training.
Great job flying. Great family! Reminds me of taking my younger kids on flying roadtrips 10 years ago. Keep enjoying it! Dave
Nice Vid. But why the music in the background. Very annoying that I stopped after a few minutes
Thanks for the feedback. Still new at this.
Trade it in for the Cirrus Vision Jet and you can sleep even longer…
