I've been flying since I was 16 and at age 19 flew around the world by myself in the same 1981 A36 Beechcraft Bonanza I still fly, becoming the youngest person ever to solo circumnavigate by aircraft.
Now, I'm sharing all kinds of aviation adventures with YOU! Ride along as we explore the world from the air and get a close up look at some of aviation's best flight experiences and destinations.

Even as an ex 747-8 captain, my heart still tick hard when I see a TBM flight deck
AVOIDING TREES oh man 😊 brings me joy to hear that bcs i feel the same way man
The 727 filmed here was the tour plane for Guns n Roses, U2, and a few others in the early 90s when it was with MGM Grand. Very cool!
Cool that you got to fly with Phil in his TBM. Love hanging out with him at the different aviation events.
i realize it's kinda randomly asking but does anyone know a good place to stream new tv shows online?
@Luciano Reginald i use Flixzone. Just search on google for it :)
@Vicente Bobby Yea, been using FlixZone for since march myself :D
@Vicente Bobby thank you, I signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :D Appreciate it !!
@Luciano Reginald happy to help :)
Your videos are getting better... Setting the standards for all others to follow.. Good Job...!
Now I believe this is like the most epic video,my favorite part was the fancy low level flying across the water.Amazing
That would be so much fun just exploring old (huge) aircraft!! Thanks for sharing
EPIC!!
One of your best ever videos!!
If you are flying around Michigan, come stop into KONZ (grosse ile). It's an old navy base that is right on the Detroit river. A lot of history came out of there and it's a beautiful airport/ spot to fly into. Also could show you around if you would like!
It’s just so incredible to see a Yakovlev Yak-11 even just in videos, flying. I bet it’s now a bit rare seeing one that is still airworthy.
Awesome Video Matt! Really love the footage that you took of the cockpit view and etc. Liked
Awesome video again. That was some good formation work, especially that landing.
Hey Matt, I just passed my check ride in the flight school in KOZW that is next door to Phil’s hanger, so awesome to see you flying out of my home airport and with planes that I see flying and think are awesome!!
Hi Matt, you did it again, my friend! A great flying day, lots of fun, a visit to the airplane graveyard and by the end of the day, lo and behold, the TBM flight! What a luxury of a day you all had. Thanks to private aviation (and you!). By the way, I loved the change in music style at the beginning of the TBM takes. So elegant, serene and laid-back! I really enjoy your videos. Take care (and get in touch!) . Regards, Eduardo.😉
My favorite turbo prop, my home city, formation flying (and landing!), a Russian Yak! ... Your best video yet, way to keep it interesting Matt!
Awesome video, that was some tight formation flying!
I sure appreciate and enjoy your Videos TYVM Matt
Awesome job with this one, fantastic cinematography!
I enjoyed everything about this video (including the music). Your video production skill matches your piloting skill. Nice job!
So true! I always love these and many of them are so good that I watch them again and again.
Spectacular video as always!
Great video Matt I’m from Detroit and I’m currently going for my ppl at the age of 52 those views are amazing good old Detroit
Great variety! That TBM is wicked nice and the boneyard was pretty slick!
I'm liking the music at 13:29. Thanks for sharing everything!
Very good content, videography, and great soundtrack! Becoming a big fan.
Love that formation flying especially the landing .
Freaking awesome. Love your videos Matt. Eagerly await every one.
Great vid Matt! The arpt in Oscoda used to be Wurtsmith AFB. A SAC unit that had B-52s and KC-135s. I used to be there a lot as a CAP cadet in the 70s. Even got to fly in the 135s to Florida twice. McDill and McCoy AFBs. Heady stuff for a young teen! Ain't Lake Huron awesome? edit: Mythbusters did an episode in Oscoda where they used a Kalitta 747 to blow cars and buses around.
Another fun video, thanks. I get a kick at seeing the local and airport restaurants you stop at. Show more.
Awesome! This is your top video Matt. Greetings from Brazil.
I’m a 747 mechanic for Kalitta Air! Love you videos.
Great Stuff Matt. Thanks for sharing.
What a cool experience! Thanks for vlogging!
that was an awesome ride along as usual Matt!!! awesome airplanes at the bone yard as well
I agree with you about the bone yard, Those frustrate me so much (I've been to the one in the Mojave desert in California), to someone who doesn't have a plane at all, to see all those abandoned ones is a killer!
N502MG was the MGM Grand 727. The Guns n' Roses Use Your Illusion tour plane. If aircraft could talk :)
If that plane could talk it would probably need therapy lol
Hey, a brand new video. And what a heck of beautiful, awesome video! I just loved it so much.
Nice formation flight in a beautiful place. And what a nice ending with a night flight in a turboprop, an some nice cousine.
Well, I feel a little bit sad about those 747 and the 727 too, but that boneyard is indeed an interesting place.
Great Video, can't wait to see the clipper ones ;)
That is some is impressive flying you all did. The low over water really give a sense for the speed of your planes. Stay safe! Your vids are great without any need for thrills.
...also love your friend pulling out the TBM in sandals. Epic flex.
Great video Matt. I am very surprised how calm you were with that Yak close by.
Loved this
Fantastic video. Great editing
Looks like a “FUN” day!!!
Great video Matt!
Awesome ... love it!
ROCK!!! Look at you guys jammin in formation!! That is old Wurtsmith AFB that used to be apart of the old Strategic Airlift Command. It used to tenant B-52's and I believe refuelers. Was that an overhead break you executed!! What an interesting place to put some old heavy iron to rest......Absolutely love TBM's, I need a job flying one of those. Best short video to date. Rock brother, keep doing what you do!
My neck of the woods. Great Video!
Thanks for the good video.
PURE AWESOMENESS.
best vid yet, MG! 09:12 priceless. I guess Owen got his upgrade. That's a former MGM Grand Air btw. Flew scheduled, short lived.
A great video, and that formation flying was outstanding..even if you were a bit harsh on the Detroit area, not where I live, but a frequent visitor, and it has its own charms.
Wish I could travel around as much as you do though, and those newer TBM's are luxury flying to the max now.
that's awesome man! i fly the 747-400 for Kalitta and flew 727 freighters for another company. great airplanes and so cool every time i see the classics
I love this video, filming in my home town 😎
Love your videos!
Great Video!
Awesome Video
Great video! that boneyard in Oscoda is amazing!
Btw if you are looking for a place for dinner in Michigan, next time you should check the Four Roses Cafe, awesome desserts, it's right by Plainwell airport
the editing in on point.
Great video.
awesome video!
I have a Velocity based out of Pontiac and I just discovered I want to take a trip to Oscoda just a couple days ago before this video came out lol! Clear Skies.
That used to be Wurtsmith Airforce base in Oscoda. At 12:16 in your video you fly past a white building out in lake Huron that is in Alabaster, its a old loading dock for freighters it used to have a tram rail system with buckets that loaded the freighters with gypsum. I spent many summers boating the whole area as a kid it was nice seeing it from the air.. keep up the nice videos.
So FREAKING DOPE MAN
Great to see my home state!
Went on a golf trip to Oscoda, MI to play at the 3 Lakewood shores courses, it was a great time!
Outstanding, Matt. My only complaint is that it is too long between videos. However, with the attention to detail that you give and the amazing editing (no drone shots in this video) I can see why it takes so long. Thank you. I look forward to the next one.
Hey Matt. Saw you were at 99k subs, so I subscribed to help you get to 100K. Great channel, great content. I'm looking forward to seeing what's going with it in the future.
KEYE is my home airport, it doesn’t get better than a cold beer at Rick’s after a long Xcountry, - literally nothing better.
Absolutely loved the jazz music track at the end of the video! Another great video Matt, always interesting to visit aircraft boneyards. I live only a few miles away from the Goodyear Airport just outside of Phoenix, AZ; it is always fun to drive by and look at the airplanes awaiting their final demise, many which I've done engine changes on for American Airlines. How many of us were turning green with envy over the TBM ? ;)
OH BOY...Matt you really do have fun flying about like that ,and it's great fun for me to watch your aeronautical antics ! And then I change gear completely and go watch one brave German woman sailing around Panama having fun and up to nautical antics try - WhiteSpotPirates - to get a salty tang !
Wurtsmith Air Force Base closed since June of 1993... As an Air Force Veteran, that makes me sad... But great vlog, and Thnx...
Cool! Hey from Windsor !
There's something about those TBM's (or equivalent). Those single engine turboprops are so majestic. As a pilot I gotta find a way to get a ride in one!
nice job
Next time you're flying around the U.P. check out Marquette! it's an old SAC base (K.I. Sawyer) and IIRC, they still have the old "christmas tree" intact.
I used to fly from Indy (KIND) to Detroit City (KDET) via Southwest. If I booked far enough in advance, I could get them for $39 round trip. I would buy like 10 of them and then just change the dates when I need them. Then they stopped flying to CIty and this start up airlines that I can't remember the name of had A320 service from Indy and they went belly up in a year. City is a strange airport. It's just over 5000 feet so it's just long enough for a 737/A320 type plane. But the take off is damn near vertical and the landing will test the best braking systems ever designed. But now it's like landing in a war zone. That area of Detroit has become a sewer. Metro is now the only place I will fly to.
I've flown into Eagle Creek and gone over to Rick's Boatyard before and their food is so good
Let's hope for more TBM content
TBM 900: Mach .496 TAS, you know you've arrived in style.
Mach .495 = 319 Knots
Pretty awesome that's how Awesome I think it is !! Nice trip guys some guys got all the Luck !! Did u thank GOD by any Chance ?? Perhaps ?? U guys have Fun and B Safe !!
Would love to see a full tbm vid!
WOW - A blast from the past.
The B727 was formally with MGM Grand Air then Champion Airlines, prior to going to a private owner - We had the honour of chartering the aircraft for our global clients including heads of state, corporations, and sports teams www.lebas.com In its heyday it was a state of the art aircraft.
It used to be a B-52 Base at one Part of the Taxi way is a Christmas Tree Ramp for Multiple B-52"s to Scramble from!
Bad Ass Sir!!!! Thank You!!
Fly down to Ann Arbor (KARB). Take a Uber over to the downtown and enjoy a huge selection of food choices.
Well thats cool! Eagle Creek is like 30 minutes from my house.
if costco had a runway it would be matt's new favorite airport restaurant
A Yak and a Bonanza. The Odd Couple.
A number of years ago, you could get into a Yak cheaper than you could get into a Bonanza. Wondering if that has changed?
Great videos! Matt your A36 turbocharged? That TBM 900 had some get up and go on the takeoff role
Welcome to Michigan
Sorry Matt but the Yak and TBM have the cool factor in spades. 😍 Would be an interesting map project identifying all the boneyards. Wonder how many are near large cities that take in orphaned commercial planes.
wicked jazz flute
Holy crap, Eagle Creek is where us VU flight school students are based out of, can't believe you were there! I've been to Rick's a couple times but it's honestly a bit pricey for a broke college student haha next time stop by in the daytime and come visit us dude!
0:28 Excellent
Wow. It’s so sad to see the demise of Detroit. The last time I was there was in like 1992 when it was still flourishing. Did you fly over Grosse Island just south of Detroit? GREAT island!
“Classic, crumbling Detroit.”
Eagle Creek, is literally 4 miles from my house. next time you are in town let me know and I will take you on a tour of Indy and show you some good local food.
How high did you take the TBM? I know you can get up above FL300 with it, which seems crazy for a single engine prop aircraft.
The TBM is a turbine aircraft
By the way, Livingston County Airport was the home base of Henry Haigh, who was a World and U.S. Aerobatic Champion back in the 70s and 80s. He was a good friend of my dad (and also of Kermit Weeks) and took me flying in his Breezy a couple of times. Finally, the airport's terminal is named for Spence Hardy, who was the long-time airport manager, another of my dad's friends, and my first flight instructor.
Yall guys bravve
0:26 that guys t-shirt haha
Was that a remote controlled tug or did I just not see you moving it?
You should consider flying into Tight Squeeze Field in rural Missouri - a grass strip owned by Don Tate, who's been into GA forever, and flew for Ozark, and TWA for a good long time. His hanger is full of history, aircraft models, magazines, and a napalm tank. He's got a ton of knowledge about everything aviation and would make for a very interesting interview. I can get you in contact if it's something that interests you.
