Overflight of Boone NC approaching from Blowing Rock. Quick circle over town then departing to the North. Note, wherever you see brown, like the big parking lot around the mall, that is where the water went. It looks like the water treatment plant was not underwater. I am sure there are a lot of people hurting here but there seem to be many parts of town intact. Aircraft is a Grumman Tiger. Cam...

Beautiful!!
Very nice video and beautiful landscape ! Great drone footage 👏 Done myself few drone videos for my travel channel if you want to have a look at it.......thank you! New SUBSCRIBER
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed this video. This is not shot from a drone. This is a certificated aircraft and flown higher and faster than drones should.
Hi! Didn't realise it's not a drone! Anyway...great footage! Hope you gonna check my work as well, same platform! Cheers!
Can confirm Boone is "hit or miss" in terms of damage, some people are in pretty good shape, other people are cut off from the rest of the world. On the whole, Boone is in better shape than other places in the area, unless you are one of those people whose sole route of access is gone.
Nice footage. Really need a zoom and play-by-play. It looks fine to me. Need someone to help me interpret what I'm seeing.
Compare the streets of black/gray to the brown. Pause the video at 2:01, note the large building with the brown parking lot. Compare that pavement to the parking lot towards the bottom edge of the screen. The mall was flooded, the other building was not. I like to fly, I am much less inclined to learn how to edit video. Sorry.
Thanks for the beautiful views. Love the place and live close by but didn't get hit as bad as other areas.
Amazing view. Wow
The altitude of the mountains showed how destructive water confined can be.
Looks beautiful that’s for sure
Well im confused. If this was to show devastated areas it didnt work. All the built up areas look normal. I didn't see one broken road at all. No piles of debris no piles of cars or homes, none of the newly formed rivers where roads used to be. Really, i didnt see anything at all that resembled the kind of damage we are seeing on ground. At 9 min there was a town that may have looked like it was in disarray. I think narration was needed. I watched this on my phone then went to computer hoping larger screen showed something. It didnt. Are you flying by the hard hit areas? Still I did appreciate the view of the fly by. Seeing arial shots of mountain towns is a rare view. Such a beautiful area. Thanks for the vid.
The FAA mandates a minimum safe altitude. A careful review of the video, and perhaps pausing, will show several mobile homes washed away as well as how half of the town streets are earth toned as they are covered with mud.
Its not going to look like a wasteland overall. The washed out areas are in the valley floor where all the water funneled into the rivers and creeks. This impacts some town centers and many main routes that follow rivers and thus get washed out. The immediate problem is if you can't get in or out with a normal vehicle. Once they fill in the blown out road sections aide will flow and repairs start.
Looks pristine that high up
The FAA mandates a minimum safe altitude over "congested areas" I couldn't get much lower without violating the regs.
This was a waste of my time 🥱😤
Happy to help.
Then why did you watch it ?
I thought i broke mine Thanks
It took me a couple weeks to sort this out. Glad you got it taken care of.
You might want to change the name it's much more. Thank you.
What would you suggest as a change?
@@defenderofthepublic Flying from Clintwood VA to Red Onion State Prison.
Miss those mountains 47 yrs .Moved to Eastern NC flats
😮❤❤❤
West Virginia is big 😮❤❤
And the crowd goes wild!
No takeoffs and no landings makes Homer something something.
Look at the two other new posts.
To Marion and back, loved it. I was watching all the familiar areas. Glade, Chilhowie, Marion. Well done.
Glad you liked it. I wanted to go all the way to the Mountain Empire airport for quick touch and go but the clouds were still low there.
I'd love to see a fly over downtown Johnson City, Matt!
When will you be up here? You can ride with me.
@@defenderofthepublic looks like late June/July for about a week.
Awesome, Matt!
the difference in ground speed is substantial.
Sometimes I forget how vast and beautiful America is.✌🏽🤎🇬🇧
how cool is that footage of the shadow of your plane, Matt!!!
It is cool to see from the air too
Thank you for the Appalachian education ❤ Learning so much!!_
It is a beautiful place to fly.
A10 spotted!
Plane shadow is so cool !
What?! No landing?! WTF?
I assure you there was one. I have it recorded, I may post later.
LOL @@defenderofthepublic
Glad you’re ok!
Yeah. I probably wasn't as alarmed as I should have been. My oil over flow vent was obstructed and oil was spraying on the exhaust. So, some smoke but no fire. Cleared the obstruction and things were fine.
Nice video. Thanks for posting
Thank you. Things in the cockpit were quite exciting, turned out to be a bit of oil on the manifold.
This is great, I love when you cross I-77
Thank you. Flying around Appalachia is lovely.
Beautifully rugged terrain. But I'm a flatlander, I like the option of Landing in a field or dirt road
Off airport landings can be a daunting consideration around here. As you can see there are options and more with greater altitude. It is still a stunning place to fly. Thanks for the comment.
Nice video - TY for sharing. Looks like bear country down below.
The bears are around. Some in town too.,
Beautiful country to fly over
I agree. It is hard to shoot bad video around SW VA
These are awesome
Thank You. Appalachia is a beautiful place to fly.
Nicely done video
Thank you. The subject was quite helpful.
I worked as a flight instructor there about the late 80s, beautiful area, always windy lol. Hello to the many friends made there, and my students, many who earned their pilots misc there.
This is 👍 great!
Thank you. I have several other similar videos around SWVA and East TN.
Love the colors, Matt!!!
Pretty sweet landing!!
NOPE no urge to learn to fly
Note to self. Find a longer runway.
Smooth takeoff and landing!
Le piano est avec le turn.
Nice stable APP and on the centerline!
I think, rather than try and compete with the big camera nice editing channels I am just going to film approaches into different airports.
Nice!!
Nice!!
cool
do a video funding the piano
do a video tuneing a piano
Needs tuning!
yes it did. I gave it away about 5 years ago.
Ok
