Diamond DA42 Instrument Approach to McChord Air Force Base
Important - This video is for entertainment only. It is not intended for instruction and should not be used for any training purpose.
In February, I was planning on getting out for some practice instrument approaches and saw an online discussion about conducting instrument approaches at a local Air Force base. McChord Base (KTCM) is just south of Seattle and I’ve flown past it hundreds of times. However, I’d never thought about attempting an approach there. This discussion indicated that the controllers at KTCM welcomed general aviation traffic as an opportunity for the controllers to get more experience.
As I was planning my approaches, I called up the KTCM tower number listed in the FAA C...

Many thanks!
Amazing quality, Sir! Very pleasant footage to look at.
Thanks for sharing this process!
im 75 healthy and want to fly
how old are you?
ILS 17 KTIW, one of my favorites. But RNAV35 is pretty fun aswell. Thanks for the video!
I’m learning a ton.
Grumpy approach controller
Another well-deserved THANK YOU for all of this!
Smooth as silk. That shows a lot of prep and knowledge. Impressive!
really enjoyed that one😊 seems like a really nice airport😍
Why do you always speak in the plural even though you’re obviously alone? Is this some aviation/pilot lingo?.
Yes! It is just customary when talking to ATC to say "we" even if you are solo. There are no regs that require it but most pilots talk this way. Just the way we are taught 🙂
@@twmba65 Thanks for the clarification
@@twmba65 I'm super impressed with the joy and beauty of your experiences flying the DA 42. I'm currently getting my PPL on a DA 40 and was wanted to ask a few questions about your overall experience, flight hours, safety, etc of owning a DA 42?? It seems like the DA 42 would be a perfect step up from a DA 40, specially for a low time pilot like myself. I'm available for a DM if you're interested and available to provide additional information. Many thanks in advance
@@nisachannel7077 I'd be happy to chat. I'm travelling for a couple of weeks on a busy schedule but would be happy to chat when I'm back ... mid-May.
Great video, beautiful flight, thank you for letting us tag along !
Diamond is such a beautiful aircraft.
Indeed! The best of its kind.
Amazing cockpit and views
Thank you!
You’re living many folks dream. Well done!
Non-pilot here (I had my chance but didn't grasp it). I have been enjoying watching your videos of you flying around my backyard so to speak. Thanks for posting.
Fantastic video Trevor. It's so nice to see these with such clarity and detail. The under-tail view was fab.
Wow, another great video. I Ilke your stuff so much sir.
Fantastic!!!!!
Another great video, and what an exciting mission! I fly at BEFA and it was cool to hear it mentioned after your clearance! If you're signing up students for MEI, would love to put my name in!
Superb videos. I'm learning G1000 for DA40NG and these videos are invaluable. Great production quality too. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Richard!
Thanks Trevor! Love the under-tail view! I know it’s a small thing, but I don’t recall anyone else calling out that they’re checking one brake at a time, then both. Good tip!
Thanks Peter! Yes the brake test procedure is something emphasized by my ME instructor. It's something I've built into my standard taxi flow.
FINALLY got my instrument rating here in Australia. I plan on coming back to the PNW in the next 3-4 months to exercise it with one of the instructors at Renton again.
Congrats Glenn! Hope to see you again when you are back on this side of the pond.
Hi Trevor. You are demonstrating very good workflow and are obviously so much more comfortable with your pride and joy.
Great video - as the other poster noted, your mix of camera angles, chart overlays and highlighting of points of interest including traffic is first-rate!
Thanks, Trevor, for another great video, really enjoy all your videos.
Great project to get your instructor ticket. Did you mean CFI, CFII or MEI? Do you plan to instruct in 2DL?
I'm working on my "MEI Initial" meaning my initial CFI ticket would be for teaching in multi-engine planes. I can add-on a regular single engine CFI later. It's not a common process but works for me since I am mostly flying multi-engine. My plan is to instruct at Galvin flight school. They currently have DA42s on their flight line.
Great video! Your sound clarity and video is so good that we can really concentrate on everything you are doing without distraction. You make a lot going on look so easy. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks! It certainly was a busy flight but fun. Editing the audio takes almost as long as the video. I try to make it as similar as possible to what I actually hear in the plane.
That is what makes it so enjoyable to watch and listen to. Thank you.@@twmba65
Great video as usual. Thanks
Trevor, I am thrilled to see yet another fantastic video from you! Your camera angles, editing, and video quality are top-notch, and I can't help but admire your impeccable procedures and professionalism. If you continue to share your expertise and passion after your CFI, the students are sure to thrive and succeed. Keep up the great work!
Thanks for the kind words, Carl!
Busy flight handled with professional ease. Thanks Trevor.
Delightful. Thank you for the ride. I enjoyed your professionalism nearly as much as the airplane.
9:00 just curious but wouldn't pitot heat on be advised in such conditions ?
It's a fair question. Looking back with the temp on the ground at 4C and knowing that the layer was very thin, it was unlikely that we'd get down to 0C while still in the clouds. However a reasonable argument be why not just turn on the pitot heat just in case. It doesn't cost anything. One less thing to think about if we did remain in cloud below OC.
Ahh nose oxygen. I thought you had some amazing lungs. Lol
When do you need oxygen masks? Or do you have a pressurized da42?
The FAA regs state that you need to use O2 if you are above 12500 ft for more than 30 minutes or above 14000 ft for any time. I typically use O2 if I'm flying above 10 to 11000 ft. The twin Diamonds (DA42 and DA62) are not pressurized.
had to listen to the atc say “expect the visual” bout 3 times to hear the “expect”
How do you like the diamond ?
Hi Trevor, beautiful video. I just bought myself a DA42 to fly in flight simulator 2020. The real thing is of course incomparable. But it makes me dreaming. Love it ! Many thanks !!
Thanks Erik! Is that the "COW" DA42? I saw that on another channel and it looked interesting.
@@twmba65 yes, indeed, nice simulation....but yours is beautiful
Same here. And your videos are so great for comparing and emulating real life.
Nice video. I did my private/instr/commercial at KRNT 20 years ago. I also did aerial photography in the Puget Sound basin and that look to the south, ooof, brutal. Always black, into shadows per the suns low angle in the winter months. Truthfully, that angle is not much better in the summer!
Thanks! Yep, being at 47+degrees latitude ...
Thanks for sharing the Travel John. Kudos.
It can be a life saver 😄
These are some of best video edits of all the aviation videos I watch. Keep it up. Excellent stuff
The best audio quality out there
Thank YOU so much for this fantatic video, it has been a pleasure to watch it in full
Thanks Carlos!
Thank you for your briefs they help very much
great video as always Trevor. Enjoy your channel very much
how can you even understand ATC? I have no idea what they're saying. This looks so difficult!
Its a bit like learning a new language. But it is very structured so with a bit of training and practice you can get comfortable with :ATC-speak"
@@twmba65thx, I am taking my first flying lesson this week. Hopefully goes well..
@@drawmaster77 Exciting!
Lovely video. Is it the camera angle or aspect or were you very high on short final?
Thanks! It was a steep approach but not unusually so. Its critical in this situation to manage airspeed a make sure that the steeper approach doesn't result in you being too fast across the numbers. As long as you are managing it, the twin Diamond is pretty easy to keep airspeed under control. Full flaps on final does the trick!
I would add that if it were high, you managed it skillfully. No float! Nicely done. Happy to have found your channel.
@@JCON631 Thanks. Like most planes, landing the DA24 is all about airspeed management. As long as I am on the right landing airspeed (~85 knots), it is an easy plane to land. If I am too fast, the only option is to go around.
