Eric and Val, thank you for taking on the effort of producing RUclips videos for us. Very likely, this is as close as I will get to landing at Freeport; it is an incredibly beautiful place, and I am sure one your favorite destinations. As always, looking forward to our next flight!
I just LOVE to watch, listen and learn from you captain Val, you are such an inspiring professional pilot/enthusiasts. I'll be waiting for the return flight video... have fun, stay safe.
@2:47, Eric would please stop finishing Captain Val's sentences for her!, she is clearly a very smart lady and knows how to explain everything to us all thank you very much.... EDIT: merci beaucoup...
Hopefully, this is what happens to people involved in long relationships. You finish each other's sentences. No disrespect. They are in many instances one.
Of course but just saying, you have a very pleasant soothing accent indeed Captain Val so it's very nice to hear just your commentary alone, it's quite therapeutic to listen to after a long day at work......
A beautiful flight in great weather, followed up with a landing which probably would win a spot landing prize any day of the week. I often wonder, when we fly with you, Val, if you were always so self-confident, or if flying has made you that way. I would always feel comfortable with you in command, as you demonstrate the virtues of planning, checking and verifying each action, and never being tempted to cut corners. Thanks to you and Eric for another brilliantly presented, high-quality video.
Hi Derek, thank you so much for flying with us. Glad you enjoyed it. Throughout the years with amazing mentors, instructors and with lots of practice anyone can be confident in their own skills. Always learning, always be a student ✈️💫 side note: I used to horseback…. Now 1879L is like my horse 🤩
It is always a pleasure to see a new Video from you guys!!! Some people have a natural , I call it a knack, when it comes to flying. Val is one of them. Eric and Val, thank you for taking us along on your flights.
Hiyyyeee my awesome friend captain Valerie!!!...what a spectacular flight to Freeport and flight view of awesome flying with you and Eric. I miss seeing you flying lately and hopefully you are ok with the hurricane Ian. Enjoy your stop over and flu home safely....Johnny from Chicago...fly hone should be...lol
Great to see you guys and one eight seven niner lima, of course! I love the playback feature, that’s the first time I’ve seen it used. Very, very helpful. Is that a function of the radio or something else? The water is as blue as the sky, amazing! Fun the watch the shadow meet the plane on landing. Perhaps I shall call you Ambassador Valerie from here on? Thanks for taking me along 🤗
Hi Peter, thank you for flying along with us to the Grand Bahama 🇧🇸 the playback feature is in the audio panel. More information here: www.avidyne.com/product_categories/audio-panels/
Hi Captain Valerie!! Awesome and incredible flight as always....thanks SO much for taking us along and sharing the experience. Such beautiful scenery and views. Have a great time & travel safe. Take care, Jon
Wow amazing flight, I have always wanted to fly to the Bahamas with my family, I belong to a flying club in Orlando, I just haven't committed to do it. Thanks for sharing your video
@@SkylineBaronPilot I am making sure the 182 will be available for those dates... I just submitted the request... if you have a moment is there an email I can send you my contact? My wife and I have questions if all possible
nous décollons bientôt bisous !!! c est cute , est ce que tu textes ta mère quand tu atterris pour la rassurer. bon vol et merci de nous faire rêver 🛩🛩🛩
Love all your Videos Capt. Valeri & Eric...I'm a professional musician from Sydney Australia & I would love to fly a plane one day I hope...I have had trial flights many years ago...Thank you...
Another wonderful video - thanks Captain Val and Eric from your biggest Maine fan! I'm thinking about attending the AOPA Hangout Fly-In event in Tampa in two weeks - any chance you guys will be there? Best to you both! Andy
Great video you guys!!!!! Love the tail tie down camera perspective during takeoff and landing. The "lookback" shot on departure showing runway behind you was very nice!!!!! Already awaiting the next video keep them coming.....
Such a beautiful flight, thanks for sharing! Always appreciate the tips and pointers you give while flying. Very informative and educational. I thought the radio playback feature was really cool, and definitely a feature I'd love to have while flying. Also love your accent and all the Bahamian accents of the controllers 😁
I enjoyed this video so much. What a beautiful day to fly. I had to watch the takeoff twice, it was so wonderful to see and so detail. The way you work the camera keeps us glued to the screen. I also enjoy how you two let us know of little detail that is going on or that you are about to do, it makes us more involved in the flight. Lots of work to put this video together. Thank you guys.
Thank you so much for your kind words 🥰 this means more than you think. We strive to keep all flights safe and entertaining for you and all viewers to experience! Glad you enjoyed the flight ✈️💫
Enjoy your videos! Which autopilot do you have? I have a debonair that has a century 2000 that is being worked on. Just curious. I was used to the tru trak in my last airplane. The pre set altitude I miss 😬
So fun Cool lane and couple. Love the way you faded the beautiful engine sound a bit after takeoff. Gear-up speed was like a fighter plane! Is the lady's accent French Canadian?
@@SkylineBaronPilot Thanks for posting your fine videos. Yes, her speaking French to her mom later made the question silly, but hell, I left it up. I'm lazy.
When you do your run up on the grass strip, and the grass is wet, does the plane ever try to skid on you? I was just wondering that with that power input with a twin that wrecked grass could be problematic. Thanks for the content!
Very good question. We never attempted to takeoff when the grass is wet. I would think it would skid but our main concern is to get stuck. I’ve seen pilots do it and it very scary. Personally, I would not recommend it.
G,day Eric and Captain Valerie from Sydney Australia. Brilliant vivid colors you have captured in this video. I do wonder why you hold the yoke back up to V1: is it because of grass takeoff and create lift asap? 🛩️🌏
“This does two things: 1) it reduces the weight on your nosewheel, and the stress it receives from the soft/rough field, and 2) it allows you to lift off as soon as possible. During the takeoff roll, your nose wheel will lift of first.” www.boldmethod.com/learn-to-fly/maneuvers/soft-field-takeoff/
Allô Martin! Contente que vous avez apprécié ce petit mot français. Ça va faire 24 ans que je suis en floride et j’ai un accent dans les deux langues! 🤣
yeah 1 mile strip that centrally couldn't be easy today. Was the take off nominal for the baron? it seemed to hang a while at the tree tops and use pretty much the entire runway. maybe I'm just used to seeing lighter aircraft. I guess a baron is among the aircraft that cannot return to the runway in case of engine loss.
We have to 2 alternates in a 10 miles radius around FD08. On a hot day and dry runway we use a little less than half of the runway. Density altitude and grass are important factors for sure.
Um, where’s the dog? Also, we talked about collecting school supplies and backpacks for donation, usually going to one of the islands (Bahamas), as you have done. How do we communicate regarding this, as I do not want to discuss it on an open channel like this. I’ve also relocated to South Florida, which means we are quite close, meaning that it would be quite easy to get the school supplies to you. Please let me know how this can work out in an ongoing ministry, if you will. Kind regards.
Hi Roger, too complicated to bring Eve and Teddy ( new labradoodle) to another country for such a short period. Not too mention most hotels don’t allow dogs. 😕 We’ve brought some schools supplies to Freeport a while ago. Email us if you have any questions. Skylinebaronpilot@gmail.com
@@SkylineBaronPilot that’s a nice area. My wife and I were hoping to visit Quebec City this past summer but unfortunately didn’t make it. We live in Northern Ontario near the Quebec border so it’s a reasonably short flight albeit nothing but bush and water along route.
@@SkylineBaronPilot what’s your normal cruise speed you see, altitude you normally fly at, and fuel burn ? Also at annual do you see compression low ? I’m seeing great prices on the TC I’m assuming most people are avoiding them. I came from a turbo arrow and the turbo was so nice
Thanks for visiting us.
Thanks for flying me to the Bahamas Captain Val.
Thank you for flying along Randy! ✈️👩🏻✈️🇧🇸
I remember being told years ago by a great pilot, ‘in a plane always wear foot ware you can walk out of a crash in’.
Absolutely! I heard that many times too. I always make sure I am wearing great “flying shoes” before a flight.
What types of shoes would be great flying shoes?
@@marahbadrian personally, I don’t fly with sandals or flexible sole shoes. Driver’s shoes, running shoes. Some ladies wear flats while flying.
Very nice. Fellow Canadian here. I fly a 76 B58 non turbo. Enjoyed your vid and aircraft.
