    Love the idea of noting the ship's information in case of a ditch! Good airmanship!

      Agreed, I also have marked on my Skydemon the two light ships near Calais and Dover, Varne and Sandettie, they make good steps over the Channel in a single, which I do often. Also if you look on a shipping AIS site you will see groups of ships at anchor waiting for orders. They are around 5 miles north of Calais and about 15 miles north east of Ostende, they make channel crossing more appealing in a single I must say. I am not a big fan of long over water crossing in a single either, Skydemon has a range ring showing your gliding range when over water, which you set to your planes parameters, I like it to be touching something as long as possible!!

    Quite some wind shear on short final, but tower wind was just 14 knots, so not really a "39 knot crosswind landing". Still very nicely done! And it's always nice to see a piston-engine aircraft being refueled with Jet-A :) Diesel is not the answer for most, but for these business travel aircraft it's probably a good idea.

    It is mindboggling to me that my father who was stationed at Wick, Scotland during WW II, would have seen and perhaps used that same desk. What is unbelievable is the feelings that garners looking at it. We lost him at 86 years old over a decade ago - yet the desk still stands where it was in the '40's.

    Beautiful aircraft and austrian engineering! I used to fly the DA42, very efficient airplane with a lot of innovation. Crossed the atlantic around 100 times a little higher up but this seems like so much more fun! Schöne Grüße aus Kärnten!

    Another excellent episode crossing the pond. The fuel consumption on the DA62 is so frugal, you need only the main and auxiliary Jet-A1 fuel tanks. Great landings under such windy conditions...!

    The pilot inspires a lot of confidence with the very professional approach and a wry sense of humour! Good flight management skills for sure. All the electronics are nice, but you need an experienced head to make best use of it all!

    At 8:42 I thought I heard "How were the women? Pretty good... pretty good shape too" and was going to recommend that you don't approach Gillette for sponsorship. After re-listening properly, happily I won't need to offer up that suggestion! ;-) Great vid and thanks from a temporarily lapsed pilot in Sydney, Aust (who has aspirations to own a DA62 after paying for our renovations and convincing my lovely wife...).

    Great videos, I'm really enjoying the series and looking forward to the next one!
    One tiny thing that irked me, on the final approach to Reykjavik a wind check is given by the tower, the response should be a single click on the mic to confirm the information, 2 clicks is a response in the negative. This is very important distinction to make during a real radio failure.

    • @igclapp
      @igclapp 3 года назад

      With the radio working normally we always used two mike clicks to signify "Roger", understood when too busy to make a full transmission. One mike click might be interpreted as an accidental click. In case of an actual mike failure the tower might specify a particular number of clicks to signify yes or no.

    • @DiamondAircraftInd
      @DiamondAircraftInd  3 года назад

      Adding pressurization increases the weight and complexity of the aircraft (in respect to certification as well as operation) and at the end also the costs and price of the aircraft. Therefore, when designing an aircraft, it is always the question where should the product be placed. With our aircraft we want to serve the market of high-end, high-quality piston aircraft without pressurization. 😊

    Very interesting video, thanks for that. Yet, the sound is UNBEARABLE.. I wonder, if there is a possibility to use normal, good quality mics at least for conversation among passengers? I get that there is "authentic" vibe for communication between aircraft and ground control, but it's really painful to listen for an extended period of time. Thanks in advance and good luck. ;)

    These vids would be much better if you wouldn't put music in the critical (most interesting) phases of flight. Save the music for when you're at altitude and are about to fast forward to the next approach/landing. Folks want to hear the navigation and atc call-outs, not listen to music that covers them up.

      Flatcap007 The early DA42 had an STC to use diesel, but since it is not available at most airports, they mostly burn jet fuel. The DA62 is only approved for jet fuel. Jet fuel is kerosene with some additives for better gel/freeze temperatures and some chemicals to protect metal.
