That was fantastic to watch!!! Thanks mate. I'm 52 and I am starting my PPL next year after years of waiting. Great video.
+Techy Las good luck starting your PPL, you'll love it!
The controller is highly professional and Shoreham terminal building is stunning. Always enjoyed fly to there.
Great video!
I must say, you're very polite on the radio in The U.K. Well done.
That was a very good flight Plane Old Ben....lovely to watch from start to finish...
+George Vola thank you for watching start to finish, I'm really pleased you enjoyed it!
lovely video Welcome to the South East and it's controlled chaos !!!!!.....always busy.....keeps you on your toes. Can't wait for the next flight........
+richard c thanks a lot, it was a great trip you'll enjoy the next video!
Really good skills there Ben thanks for sharing.
brilliant buddy another ten years yet philip.
Nice video. Again. Lovely trip and airfield. On the list.
+gervais henderson its such a great airfield!
Super busy approach, nice video.
Nice flight Ben. You experienced the difficulty of getting a word in on Shoreham's frequency! Had to do it on my QXC..a bit daunting back then. Nice to see you Darn sowf.
+The Flying Reporter haha I was just about to break off my downwind join but managed to get on the radio just in time! Thank you for your continued reports.
super trip, really enjoyed that. I think you make the experience for your passengers very reassuring. Hope you'll come back darn sarf again soon!
+Duncan Callow thanks Duncan, it was a great trip and I really want to be back soon!
Love your videos, Ben and makes me wonder why I didn't do the same at your age. But now I am going for it. As soon as COVID has buggered off I am doing my PPL!! Cheers and stay safe.
Shoreham was my first GA airfield. Now in US.
Great flight Ben I liked flying Piper aircraft I have flown most single engine models except the Arrow including PA18-J3/90 PA18A-150/180 PA28-140/160/180/235 PA32-260/300/300R & PA38-112 Nice weather for your arrival at Shoreham and the Burger hope it tasted as good as it looked.
+bravohotel100 you've nearly flown the whole fleet!
Wonderful video landing at my home airfield, lots of dynamics with the cyclists and other pilots/aircraft going about their business!
Ah! Nice one! did my first flight ever from Shoreham, and hopefully soon I'll start my CPL over there
Good luck with your CPL!
Nice flight Ben. I'd been thinking about taking a visit down to Shoreham at some point... but first I need to pluck up the courage to deal with London airspace... I quite like the East Midlands cocoon :D
+Nick T haha it's not too bad, do a bit of planning then challenge yourself and go!
Nice work Ben. Great footage.
+Andy Donaldson thanks a lot, Andy!
Well done Ben, great flight !
+Peter Bailey thank you Peter!
pleased you enjoyed your trip, "down sowf"! ;-)
Wow great video Ben!
+Alex Henthorn thanks Alex
Great video, they are always a joy to watch keep it up 👍
+stue b17 thanks a lot Stue!
Plane Old Ben No worries ☺️
Hi Ben,
I've been watching the videos for while now and often kept an eye on your channel, welcome down south! You flew not too far from my old home airport and the place I gained my PPL, Goodwood. If you're keen to do more flights down southwards I would recommend a visit, it's a lovely aerodrome. Unfortunately I'm not flying from there at the moment as I'm completing my ATPL training down in South Africa, if you fancy a slightly longer cross country then please feel free to visit.
Anyway, keep up the good work and happy landings.
Ray
+Raymond Skinner Ray, thanks a lot for the comment! I've always wanted to fly to Goodwood it's on my list! Good luck with all your training.
+Plane Old Ben, Thanks very much, it's going well so far. It's a definite must visit, I'm hoping to be finished here and back in the U.K sometime after September/October. So if you fly down around that time let me know
Love the videos man. I'm.currently learning to fly out of Carlisle. Nearly ready for my solo
+Pocky Vlogs that's awesome, good luck with your training and first solo!
Great video Ben! Can't wait to get my license now!
+Cameron Fletcher thanks Cameron! You best film your lessons!
Great video as per usual! The radio was busy during the arrival, I don't see how people who fly out of there get the will to put up with that most flights
+CharlieClass156 it was super busy there, I was about to break off my join if she didn't hear my last report of being at the ATZ boundary but luckily she did!
Great video, I would be very comfortable flying with you. I took my one and only flying lesson at Shoreham a few years ago as I only live a few miles away. Its a quaint airport that has seen its share of tragedy recently with the airshow crash. I miss those airshows I must say.
Wish there were more places like this up Scotland :( Glenforsa is the only place that I've been to that comes close...
+Jonay we were tempted to head north to Oban but Shoreham worked out a similar distance!
Nice video, well done
Only came across this video (6 years after it was posted). I've flown with my instructor to Blackpool but it was a MATS penetration via Wharton but I noticed after leaving Blackpool, you tuned directly to Liverpool Radar/Approach. Why is this? I assume it was because you flew this on a weekend when Wharton was closed.
Also, South of Liverpool airspace, you climbed to 5,000ft and above cloud cover - so I assume you had an IMC rating? Cheers, Ab
I saw this aircraft G-BNOJ at a land away to Gloucester a few weeks back on the 2/7/17. We parked around 17:20 local. Perhaps it was you? Great video as always Ben 👍
+Harry Parton that certainly was me! I filmed our arrival into there the video will be out in a few weeks.
I thought so 😂 I recognised the aircraft from your previous videos but didn't think much of it until seeing this. I look forward to your next video!
You went right over a stop and hold position. Was your clearance to go park enough to do that. I am not used to controlled airports?
Great Vid sir! If ever you wish to visit Duxford i'd be more than happy to entertain you (based pilot) in return for jumpseat ride!
+Sam Berry thanks Sam!
Hey Ben, nice video good to see my Airport on your channel, you managed the busy RT very well as usual. Hope to do my PPL test there in a few weeks, all exams done . Then I want to do the reverse flight, nearly, and head to Liverpool, have you flown into there yet?
+kevin Darby good luck finishing your PPL! I've flown from Liverpool a couple of times but watch out of the £80 landing fee due to mandatory handling.
Wow 80 quid, what about Woodvale. I have seen you fly into there, can you do an overnight stop, that is closer to family anyway but with it being an RAF base was expecting it to be unavailable for that?
I really enjoy watching your video,s always full of good information and quality recording, something I struggle with is the fact that you do not use checklists, especially given that you could never pass a PPL flight test without using them, a bit like now you have your licence your going to now set your own standards, many a good pilot has gone before, through not using them.
+wayne elliott I use the checklist for pre-take off and power checks to make sure I don't miss an item but don't need it for the remainder. I've started to edit out a lot of the checks now as I don't think people want to watch them it's more about the flying!
blog.globalair.com/post/The-Importance-of-Checklists-4-Accidents-Checklists-Could-Have-Prevented.aspx
+wayne elliott cheers Wayne, interesting read!
Great video as always Ben, but weren't you able to go a couple of hundred feet higher though to keep out of the bumps/clouds/thermals near Lasham and Odiham ? Can get very congested there with traffic as you saw.
+lashamgliders Id have had to climbed another 500ft or so which would have put us right underneath controlled airspace. Being slightly lower enables us to be able to observe what was going on in the area, I also had to descend not long after to get into Shoreham.
I enjoyed that. What's going on at 38:44? The nose gear of the aircraft to your left side was being retracted. Great video. Many thanks.
It's a Varieze and that's how you prepare it for departure!
Pilot body weight lifts the nose once you're in.
thanks for that
Excellent vid. I've recently started my own PPL training (3 lessons in) and watching your channel along with flightchops and Steveo1kinevo finally got me to take the plunge and go for it. If you're ever up towards Durham Tees Valley, I probably owe you a beer :) I'm still waiting for the first flight to take me above the cloud base but the instructors are pretty keen to keep away from it for now haha. On a side note, how do you find the PA28? I few the C152 for my first with 2 more in the PA38 which I prefer. How does flying the larger aircraft compare or do you not really feel it once you're in the air?
All the best
+Beefej good luck with all your training! The larger aircraft feel heavier on the controls but more stable in the cruise. I think learning to fly in a two seater is great as they are easier to control but not so great for long distance flights.
Ben, if you don't mind me asking - how much does it cost to hire the plane for the trip that you are doing? (Don't worry about answering, if it is too private)
Thoroughly enjoyed the video, Any chance you could fly to Wycombe?
+Kwame Yeboah it's on my list!
Brilliant!
What settings do you use for your hero 3 ? I have just got hold of one and I'm planning on doing some filming with for RUclips also 👍🏻
+Andrew Baillie 1080p Superwide 30fps
Great channel. Quick question if I may. How do you record the audio for your flights
+Robert Spencer I made a video on that, you can find it on my channel!
Plane Old Ben cheers, I'll have a look
Great video, are you uploading the return flight budddy
+Mike Slater the next video is to the IOW then after that IOW to Gloucester
Ohyesof course I remember now from your insta, is it online yet?
+Mike Slater not yet will be Week or so!
Plane Old Ben great stuff

wer did you do yor PPL licence at blackpool
+harry Marshall Flight Academy then finished it off at Westair
thank you

Love this video and your collection here on You Tube. Do you plan to be a commercial pilot one day? We've shared your visit of #Shoreham on our Facebook page. But I'd love to feature an interview with you on our website, is that something you'd be interested in?
+Alex O'Loughlin Hi Alex, I'm currently studying for my ATPL exams and around half way through! Next year I'll be doing my CPL MEIR. Thanks for sharing the video, where did you share it!
On the Brighton City Airport Facebook page.
+Alex O'Loughlin ah great, thank you! I've sent you a message on twitter.
It would of been quicker, easier flying IFR in the Cirrus.
And in a let 410.
+EinkOLED yes it would, I'm lucky to have a choice aha!
+gervais henderson or one of the work Typhoons
Plane Old Ben You wouldn't be happy with the fuel bill on that.
