Great video as always Martin. Brought back a lot of memories for me of when I landed at MCO with my instructor at night while getting my Private back in the 1980's. Something I'll never forget.
Martin one of your best. I love the intermittent visuals showing the instrumentation and radio navigation inputs and being able to see what you see both out the window and on your in cockpit navigational aids. Just great.
I nice piece of history is to know why Orlando International Airport has the designator KMCO. In the 1950’s the airport was a Air Force base and later in the 1970s a SAC base for B52s. In late 1950s the were B47s bombers hosting visiting British Vulcan bombers. A B47 flown by Colonel Michael McCoy suffered structural damage during maneuvers. The plane was going down over populated areas. Colonel McCoy had crew bail out and he then continued to fly the plane as best he could. Steered away from homes etc and never bailed out. He died in the crash and the airport was renamed McCoy Airforce Base to honor his heroism and sacrifice. Hence KMCO
If they don't charge for the crew car, then heck it's worth the extra money they charge anyway. This was a pt cool flight. Thanks for sharing this with everyone.
Yes, it really helps saying these things out loud. Same with checklists. Seems silly when you're by yourself, but it makes them more effective. Good discussion of the departure briefing here in this brand new episode of "In The Hangar": ruclips.net/video/FWan-FVA54c/видео.html - Martin
I like the fact you go ahead and load the RNAV approach. Reminded me of a recent trick I figured out. Our home airport has some construction going on, so the PAPI for runway 23 is out of service. Since I like having a glide slope coming in over some terrain at night, I load the RNAV 23, activate the final leg, then when I turn base to final, the glide slope comes alive and guides me down safely over the hills.
Look like pretty reasonable fees there in Orlando compared to other Class B's you have been too. Our engine pre-heater for the Comanche is a halogen flood light but then again we don't have the real winter like you do.
@@martinpauly agreed. I’ve been there 3 times, and it was quite easy to get on 36L/18R right next to the ramps. I found Signature to be the better value, and they gave me some nice discounts to boot.
Martin, have you ever considered explaining why all clearances are to a temporary altitude for 10 minutes, and then a requested cruise altitude? What happens NRDO with that procedure? I love your pre-takeoff briefing. A procedure to decide where to abort takeoff seem like a good idea? What were your thoughts/strategy for avoiding wake turbulence of the heavy Airbus? You landed long to avoid, for sure.
Hi. Love the videos. You didn’t mention it, but it looked like you touched down well down the runway, I assume to stay out of the wake turbulence of the preceding Airbus arrival?
Multiple reasons for this, Ken. One is wake turbulence. Another is the fast approach speed ATC usually asks for at these large airport, so I have some speed to bleed off. Third, often the high-speed turn-offs to leave the runway only start half-way down - otherwise you have a very sharp turn in the "wrong" direction. Regards, Martin
Thanks for posting. Do you still put the metal barriers around each of the tires in your hangar to keep the critters out of your aircraft? I remember seeing this on one of your videos a long time ago and I thought it was a clever solution to keep the insulation eaters and random nesters away from prohibited areas.
Good job as always . . . . I just did my 1st Class Bravo, Well I took off, but got my first departure procedure as well... So I guess that counts as a 1/2 Bravo?
I've tried that, Al, but find that miss the info from the larger map. Either that, or the approach chart is so transparent that it's hard to read. I'll have to experiment with it some more. - Martin
Everything is working fine, Rusty. You can see the EGT numbers above the bars. #5 and #6 are working, their EGT is just so low that no bar is showing. Perfectly normal at low idle. - Martin
That's a bit like asking a skydiver if he only wears a parachute when filming his jumps. The departure briefing is only effective if briefed before each take-off. Whether the camera is running has nothing to do with it. So yes, I do that on every flight. Regards, Martin

@@martinpauly en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McCoy_Air_Force_Base " (1940-1947, 1951-1975) is a former U.S. Air Force installation located 10 miles (16 km) southeast of Orlando, Florida.

I work at an FBO and it always boggles my mind how pilots can’t park themselves.... y’all don’t need someone pointing where to go, just park next to the other planes! Makes sense don’t it
Yes, sometimes it is as easy as you say.. At other times, it can be less obvious. For you as an FBO employee, when you see the operations every day, there's no question how we should park. But different FBOs arrange their parking space in different ways, and some - especially at the large airports - can be quite particular about where we park. Regards, Martin
@@martinpauly Very true! Being a pilot as well I see both sides, if I see no one I just take it as a sign that it must not be that important and I am gonna park where I want! haha I just pick an airplane of similar size and park next to it! Then if they wanna say something about your parking bring up well no one was out there! Blue Skies!
Came to the channel to learn about the Bonanza for MSFS2020: stayed because the videos are excellent and just plain enjoyable. ❤️🇦🇺
Very happy to hear that! Bonanzas are fun, in real life and I'm sure in the simulator as well.
Happy landings!

Another great video Martin!!!.. Just wondering, what do you do when your not flying and editing videos?
Well, I have a job, and a family... so I do "normal" things like most people

Hi Martin, beautiful video (again), have you updated the front view or all cameras? The footage looked awesome. 👌🏼 Do you use GoPro7/8?
Thanks! The front camera view is a Hero8. Much improved image quality over the first model I was using when I started (Hero3).

Flagler is my home field, it would have been great to see you there. Familiar voices on ground and tower.
I like Flager. Have been there several times already to visit friends in town; will be back before too long.
- Martin
@@martinpauly Let me know if you are in town, would love to meet up for an adult beverage.
How hot was it over there? You kept adjusting that louvre in the window!!!
Oh, it was petty warm. Mid 90s, and very humid - like you would expect for August in central Florida.

Love it! How many more class Bravo airports do you have to go?
A lot... I've been to less than half of them. Should be able to do one, maybe two more this year.

Excellent video. Needs a snappier title though. How about “Highly Professional RNAV 36L KMCO (without supermodel)”
I'm sure that'll work great! 😂
- Martin
UAL1kFlyer Why not a supermodel?🙈
Ken Liszewski I know, right?!
Which flying channel has the supermodels? I've watched many, but haven't seen any yet. haha
Good job as always . . . . I just did my 1st Class Bravo, Well I took off, but got my first departure procedure as well...
So I guess that counts as a 1/2 Bravo?
Which one, Ron?

@@martinpauly
KHOU last Sunday . . .
Loved the video. Is there a reason you don't superimpose the approach chart on the map so you have a better sense of where they are vectoring you?
I've tried that, Al, but find that miss the info from the larger map. Either that, or the approach chart is so transparent that it's hard to read. I'll have to experiment with it some more.
- Martin
Martin Pauly yea can get a little distracting but it really helps me especially when ATC is vectoring me. Great video.
@28:34...#5, #6 EGT registers no indication. Is that an instrumentation anomaly at idle?
Everything is working fine, Rusty. You can see the EGT numbers above the bars. #5 and #6 are working, their EGT is just so low that no bar is showing. Perfectly normal at low idle.
- Martin
@@martinpauly ...got it, very cool set up...thanks for the explanation on such a geeky minor question.
Martin, you did a complete pre-takeoff briefing, was that for the camera or do you always do it even when not recording the flight?
That's a bit like asking a skydiver if he only wears a parachute when filming his jumps. The departure briefing is only effective if briefed before each take-off. Whether the camera is running has nothing to do with it. So yes, I do that on every flight.
Regards,

Martin, I do not hear the stall buzzer when you land; do you manage your speed to stay above even when on flare?
Andrew, I don't hear it every time I land, but often. Tells me I can still slow down a bit more before touching down, I guess.
