Epic Fail! Watch This Disappointing Flight During a Solar Eclipse
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 июл 2024
- Checking out the Annular eclipse 2023 from the air in my Piper Comanche 250. It was super dramatic and we are lucky to be alive after flying through the solar eclipse. The Aerial view of an eclipse did not disappoint. Or maybe it did. At any rate, if you want to see an eclipse from a plane, here is your chance.

20 bucks says Bryan logs this as night IFR
😅
Ha ha standard
Was he following a road?
That ending was indeed epic! Radio chatter at the end had me rolling :D
Two friends just out having fun. What more can a person ask for? Keep up the excellent work, Bryan. Safe skies my friend 🇺🇸🛩️
Best eclipse video I have ever seen and fantastic dramatic ending!!! 😍 You really had me in with those bright white eyes in the dark. Stop teasing haha 😂 I noticed from your wing cam that the back part of your wing is very loose. Better get that fixed, before it falls of.
A good epoxy glue should fix that movement.
👍✅ BrYan needs to invest in a roll of duct tape to keep the back flappy parts from swinging around......
@@jeffreythompson9549 @paratyshow Jeah! Superglue and duct tape sound like great ways to fix that. In addition I would screw in a dozen bolts too. Better safe than sorry! :-)
Bryan aligned the sun, moon, airplane, and the earth… all at the same time!
While blocking out most of the remaining sun rays with a check list!
And the flying was still fun!
-meow 😃
Best coverage of the eclipse I've seen! Also the only coverage, but still epic (or maybe that was just the music). Thanks for the laughs!
“I’m not actually going to use it.”😂 At least you’re honest
I'll have to be sure to tune in next April to see the conclusion of the checklist...
I noticed the sky totally changing color during the eclipse. My rommie drove to central Utah to see the TOTAL eclipse. Pretty cool.
The music truly made it a memorable and epic video!
That taxi was epic!!
I had no idea about the hole in paper trick. Very educational stuff!
That was quite impressive!
LOL! What a fun video! Less FUN-E but more FUN! I loved the EPIC taxi music! For jackasses on the radio I was totally waiting to hear a dub in of my landing at F69..
Or you could have used a welding hood!
So, while his was happening, I soloed. Thought you’d like to know, BrYan. 😊 Thanks as always for the entertainment.
Howdy Jason, down in Georgetown Texas (actually at my house on a private airport (07TS), I noticed it wasn't at bright at 12-2pm as it was later around 4-5pm (really brighter later in the day then with the Sun directly over head. Also, the temps were pleasent until later in the day, and I realized that the daytime heating was delayed by 3 hours
I was expecting the dramatic music like they use on the curse of Oak Island when they look down and find a stick in the mud 🤣💦
Just a fun entertaining video! Way to fly and have fun!
Fab to see you uploading more. Love it 🎉
LMAO Bryan!
My friend and I had a very similar flight, lots of fun.
with Erik along I thought you'd get some awesome pictures.
Buddy Holly had a checklist. So did Ricky Nelson, Dave King, and most notably, John Denver.
best dramatic sequence of the Great 2023 Eclipse. 😁
Nice :)
Nice video, good job figuring out what it was. Another thousand feet wouldn't hurt either.
Your observation about the wind is very interesting. I was coordinating a data gathering mission for my CAP squadron and NASA asked us to measure wind and temperature during the eclipse. We experienced no change in wind(we are at sea level) but a noticeable change in air temp. Our other data point was VHF FM radio. Did you notice any impact to radio transmissions (even though airband is AM)? Any crackles, distortion, whistles, poor reception, pops?
Anyone else notice the Gold Seal logo looks like an eclipse? Wizardry..?
April 8th is going to be completely different, it will be worth the flight for sure.
😎
Not to be that guy in the comments, but I really struggle to understand your radio calls. They're blistering fast. And I've got >300 hrs and IR. Isn't the goal for people on the other end to actually understand you? And I LOVE the thundering music! Best part of that video. Keep 'em coming!
Just for fun, I slowed down your last radio call to hear it completely. I got: "NorthwesttrafficCommance30Pisentering45degreedownwind435fullstopNorthwest". That still doesn't tell me if you're on the 45, on the downwind, left or right traffic? All I get from that at full speed is there is a Comanche approaching the pattern that I'd have to look out for. (and I know the runway is not 435, but 'for 35' sounds like 435 especially at that speed.)
So you guys are the issue on 122.8!!!
Why am I JUST NOW hearing about this eclipse??? 😂🙃
October 15th y'all.
To be fair, I wouldn't have been able to see anything because it rained all day...
Haha nice, as long as it's not an eclipse jet, those things are almost as rare as a lunar/solar eclipse
Soo, is it frowned upon to log 3 full-stop night landings during the eclipse?? Asking for a friend
So I wasn't supposed to stare at the sun!? A few years back during the total eclipse, KPCD just happened to be over the exact spot of the longest eclipse, It legit turned to night for two minutes. All the lights came on, hmm now I wonder if the RWY lights came on? Didn't notice, we were on the ground with a few hundred other planes that flew in for the event.
I did the exact same thing. I was waiting for it to get dark and nothing. Just nothing. I logged 1.6 though.
I seen a crescent shadow on Bryan's neck for a split second, let's hope the astrology doesn't have a lingering effect on him for the next six months, if he reveals his zodiac we'll know if he's going to be okay or not😂
When you use a checklist people will know you're a real pilot
Did you have your Nav Lights on........Just in case???
I hope you were night current!
5:45 your aileron got shorter.... was that to do with the eclipse too? The alignment of the sun and moons gravities made it strong enough to alter the shape of your aileron?
Bryan went flying into an eclipse and hit a Mitsubishi
Annular eclipse? That spare camera you sat on probably got an anallar eclipse.
The real eclipse to see is the one next April.
Checklist? A freaking novel is more like it. :-)
I was a C-130 flight engineer. If you want to compare checklists, better get ready to lift with the knees, not the back. :p
The shadow 🤯 you mean to tell me that the source of light is that important? The holes in the paper... why.. what?
No one suggested there would be a loss of brightness
There is a.loss of brightneaa and the light quality is just off. It's surreal. It feels a.little.bit like those movies from the 60's and 70's where the night scenes were filmed during the day with a filter slapped over the camera lens.
No iPad in the cockpit?
Nope.. He upgraded to a BRYpad..
Well that's 8 minutes of my life I'll never get back!
👍✅ I agree and I'm so thankful to BrYan and ErIk for it, You GUYS rock mine and @alanmcnamara9155's world!
Good thing you spent another 30 seconds composing a comment, and here's another 10 from swiping away the notification from this reply. What a time sink!
I am surprised that someone who watches BrYan's videos has such a massive problem understanding humour. The comment was made tongue-in-cheek/sarcastically. BTW I googled the phrase "time sink", but it doesn't appear. Please explain.@@MichaelOnines
@@alanmcnamara9155 a time sink is a time sucker, time waster, something that has an unlimited potential to consume time. Think of a theoretically perfect heat sink from thermodynamics but applied to time. It wasn't inteded as a direct insult at you, more as a (ironic or sarcastic) description of the video as having wasted your time and continuing to do so.
Plenty of commentors on "Y"rian's videos don't "get it". I just confused you for one of those troglodytes. Sorry about that.
I'm outta here! Someone let me know if anything interesting happens after 1:17
Hahaha!!!!
You should have stopped the video after the first minute. 👀 👀
Hopefully the ALGORITHM will not object to me calling you "flyboy"....
What happened after 1:26? I left because it was soo boring!!! Jk. Meow!
What is this checklist thing you spake of? 🤷♂️
I'm proud of you for using a checklist!
However, you continue to spell your name wrong. Sad.
