Cherish a woman that will fly with you. My wife of 41 years passed away at the end of October. She wasn't a rated pilot but loved to fly and travel, was a meticulous pre-flighter ("If I'm going to fly in this thing, I want to be right!"), and was a great copilot. Live the dream...
larry 🙏🙏, man. I'm glad you got to spend 41 years with someone whom you appreciated and got to "live the dream with". Thanks for posting Larry
So sorry for your loss Larry. I too lost my wife of 41 years at the end of July. I’m not a pilot but I’ve been an aviation buff all my life and have flown with several private pilot friends. I have way more time as a passenger in helicopters with a former employer. My wife wasn’t really interested in aviation but would willingly go to air shows because I was. She even planned a weekend getaway once that included an airshow. Sounds like you had one of the best. Hope you are able to continue your flying. I’m sure your copilot will still be there watching over you. May God Bless!
@@steveturner3999 Thank you, Steve and my condolences to you.
❤️❤️❤️
God bless you and your wife. She will always fly with you.
You have a keeper. She looks at you the same way I look at my morning cup of coffee. Don't screw it up! 😂
Love this 🙌 haha so true
I was thinking about the same…
There's nothing to screw up when it's been slated from the heavens...
I cannot...stop...laughing
Lol
“I didn’t want you to feel bad about your last landing”: best pilot excuse ever! 😂
All CFI's tell their student that during their lessons. Mine certainly did.
Dude. She is the catch of the century, so glad you found each other and we get to enjoy watching you two together. Keep it up loving it.
@@kuyakj78 or maybe she was just making some jokes and being goofy? If THAT caused your “relationship bells to go off,” you might want to consider marking your equipment INOP and calling it a day.
@@Aviation101 She was being goofy and it was cute I don't know WTF these people are talking about. She is awesome and I am very happy for you Josh. Been watching since you were a kid basically so
@@Aviation101 Defending your lady, respect.
@@kuyakj78 Oh c'mon...
Lotta cushion for the pushing 💯❤️🙋♂️
Perfectly said Josh, With your plane you have the skies, but with Chelsea....The Heavens.
In your early days on RUclips, I reached out to you on FB messenger to go up with you on one of your flights. We had it planned, I was going to pay half of the fuel cost. The day before, the plane that you wanted to fly was unavailable so you canceled. I was lazy and didn't follow up for doing another flight. I check in on your channel from time to time and it's nice to see you doing so well. I regret not doing that flight with you. I've got a 14yo son who wants to be a pilot so when he turns 15 in Oct we are going to start flight training together. Can't wait!
As a pilot for 61 years and a Flight Instructor since December, 1966, I still tilt my head skyward to see what's flying over. No longer medically qualified, so I view many aviation videos to satisfy my taste for the sky. 8,500 hours of safe flying in helicopters and airplanes and the earth by air is beautiful and priceless. I remember the first time I saw a USAF KB-50 refueling a B-36! Aviation has come a verrrrry long way!
I recommend you look into flight aims using VR. That might help you scratch that flying itch.
Paramotor / Part 103 as long as you approve you flying.
Chuck Yeager used to fly an ultralight when he just wanted to have fun. If you are still confident in skill and ability, you can go with fixed wing UL. If not so sure about 50 knots plus, a Powered Parachute flies 25KIAS and is still a blast.
@@JonHuhnMedical That's like giving a starving dog a rubber bone.
Fantastic video!!!
Thank you for all you do for the aviation community. I’ve been following your channel for a few years now and you have never disappointed. In fact, you were instrumental in getting me back in the air after a 13 year hiatus. Now you’re inspiring me to take longer trips. I’m based in the southeast and have added Sedona and the rest of the southwest to my bucket list. You and Chelsea make a great team. Watching how you two interact with each other as you explore everything aviation has to offer is truly heartwarming. Keep up the great work and once again, Thank You!!!
Really enjoy your professional interaction. Keep up the great work. You two have many more years of adventures together!!! Blessings for safe flights ahead!!!!
Sedona will always be special to me, since 1994 I have yearned to return every year, though it’s been three years since I last visited it’s still on my bucket list repeats!
Thank you both for a great video via my first love; aviation, and your pleasurable narration!!
Incredible scenery. Your choice of music is perfect. Blends in so well with the type of flight. You two are so great together. Enjoy your life together to the fullest. Y'all are so blessed.
As always, thanks for sharing, Josh. You are a masterful aviation video storyteller. Sedona / Canyon Country never gets old.
I can’t say I really enjoyed my GA flying days. I went to an accelerated part 141 flight school and went from 0 hrs to CFII in about a year. The fire hose treatment. It did the job but all my memories were cramming for check rides, students trying to kill me and lack of sleep. Didn’t have time to sit back and enjoy it. Instructed through about 2k hours through the 2009 recession until the airlines started hiring again, was excited to get out and never really looked back. I did maybe 2 leisure GA flights in that 2.5 year period. One being DVT-SEZ maybe 15 years ago and I still remember how scenic it was, probably one of the only GA flights I can still remember in detail. Point is the production level of a vid like this makes it almost seem enjoyable. Maybe down the road I’ll get into it as a hobby! I’ve always wanted to get my seaplane rating. Keep making these cool vids!
Sedona and Catalina are my top 2 airports. Love flying there. Mesa Grill is amazing too. Pulled pork sandwich with Sidewinder fries is my go to. Great video!
Love aviation (obviously) but it's even better to see such a happy couple doing it together! Very heart warming.
Josh enjoy these days. Chelsea makes you smile and is a great pilot and partner. Be safe - Take care - God Bless.
The chemistry between these two is captivating. The way she looks at him! Lucky guy, happy couple and an excellent team.
Really makes me miss flying with my dad around Arizona some of the most beautiful land to fly over we flew to everywhere you possibly could in Arizona and my mother actually went with him a lot more than I even did Great memories It's really great to see it again even though it's on TV screen it's funny how you're up there when you're flying and everything seems kind of slow motion as you're watching the scenery go by and Sedona From the sky nothing beats it Happy flying To the both of you Thanks for sparking some great memories
The "Flying with Chelsea Show" with special guest Josh Flowers. Excellent!
Thoroughly enjoyed the views of flying over Sedona and the playfulness in your and Chelsea’s connection. You are both expanders of possibilities for me…as once upon a time I had wanted to get my pilots license. Appreciating your shared joy of life and flight. Reading these comments, and watching your video helped me to see how much more joy is still available. Thank you for the bird’s eye view. 🤗🛩
I forgot the adventure and fun of flying when I got my license 30 years ago. Think it's time to dust off that dream and you two show how it can be an awesome thing for couples. Thanks for the memories revived!
Mesa Grill is one of my favorite restaurants in Sedona. Hope you guys had a good time there. So many things to see in Sedona if you have the time and enjoy hiking. Nothing like being in the mountains and rock structures. You get a completely different perspective and feeling when you are actually in them rather than looking from the road or air.
Sedona is a very special place.
Wish I was a pilot and able to travel and see the world as you do from the skies. Must be amazing.
Stay safe and happy travels!
Oh My Goodness . What a wonderful video . Wonderful Scenery , a sense of genuine love for flying , for its never ending adventures it brings , and , no doubt , Dave and Chelsea have found their one true love in each other . David , the way Chelsea looks at you , you are one blessed man , Cherish and Protect . Thanks for sharing . Sedona is magnificent . Safe Flying Blessings Wished Upon You Both .
So Beautiful!!! Thanks for taking us along!
Many of us who remember a pre-internet world are big fans. Not only of the flying info, but of the amazing lifestyle you have worked so hard to create and share with us. Long ago, making a living doing what your doing was the stuff of science fiction dreams. Well done.
I live in Central Texas and listen a lot to local traffic. I can recall hearing you many years ago in the pattern at San Marcos, and noting how hard you were trying to get things just perfect (yes, old pilots have that skill). You are the ideal example of practice makes perfect.
The addition of Chelsea to your life and channel has added another great dimension to both. At one point I found myself laughing out loud and sincerely saying to the screen, "Oh gosh, they are really cute!" I wish both of you continued success and joy.
LOL Josh has had no shortage of attractive women in the front seat with him over the years. It's kind of his brand. We'll see if Chelsea sticks around.
@@geraldmartsy2165 if he is smart, he will continue to have a nice selection of attractive ladies joining him in the front seat and won't "settle down" as they say --- that kind of variety in female companionship keeps a man vibrant and young at heart for a long time!
@@fredwerza3478 If he's LUCKY he's found a keeper in Chelsea who also thinks he's a keeper! That "variety in female companionship" just smacks of someone who is unwilling / unable to trust and commit. Each to their own I guess.
@@tarquinfintim5910 the idea of a "keeper" is just a construct of human psychology --- actual biology and evolution have preferred the male have a variety of female mates over his lifetime --- it induces happiness
@@fredwerza3478 I'm getting an old fashioned Patriarchal vibe from you. An apology for a way of life that is weighted heavily in favour of men. Good luck with that.
Thank you for leaving the couple bits it made the whole clip more fun to watch, besides it highlights what aviation is all about - human experience. Great flighting for you both!
I appreciate that you’re not afraid to show your mistakes (“Sedona Traffic” at Kingman). We’re all only human.
Fabulous video. It’s lovely to see the way you guys are growing together while producing some amazing entertainment for us. Thanks so much.
Thanks for taking us along for the flight! Great to watch!
I was just at the Mesa grill two days before this dropped! It was my first time in Sedona...what a wonderful place to visit. Great video!
Flying into Sedona NEVER gets old!! And Chelsea....What a Peach! You done good Bro! 👍
That whole part of the US is a photographer's dream, even at night. You can see the Milky Way from horizon to horizon. Thanks for a great video.
Great video you two. Look forward to lots more soon?
Beautiful scenery! Beautiful flight! Thank you for sharing!
As always, a top shelf production.
the scenery shots are awesome you guys do a great job
I love your channel and the adventures and happiness you experience together wishing you a great life.
This video made me feel good, good job from both of you. Enjoy your flights, projects and each other.
Love your videos . Keep them coming and fly safe .
the way she looks at you…. You two are so cute
Josh, loved the video!! I enjoy living my dreams through your cameras!!! Keep up the great work!! If you ever make it up here to 77S, let me know and I would love to stop by the aerodrome and say howdy!!! 👍👍😎😎
Breathless scenery. Thanks for sharing.
This is beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
Liked the video before watching!! Thank you Josh for your inspiration to me :) . Also your editing levels are top league!
Josh And Chelsea Great video I love watching your videos you guys are very good pilots can't wait to see more videos in the future
Thanks for sharing your Arizona adventures guys! Breathtaking production...the wife and I went to Sedona for first time last Thanksgiving and now we need to "fly" back and spend more time...and find our own personal "vortex".
What a great ride!! Thank you very much for sharing it with us. I glance off to the side frequently flying from Telluride to Phoenix. We definitely need to divert over there some day! Very beautiful!!
As always, great content Josh.
These videos are always great. You two rock. Someday I want my license and maybe my wife will fly with me! You two keep it up👊🏽
What a beautiful country we live in , without you some of us would never get to see it! Thanks for what you do!!
Absolutely love this video!!! We were there in January!!! So BEAUTIFUL!! THANKYOU for sharing 😊
Hang on to a Lady like that Josh it don't get better than that! I lost my special lady of 24 yrs in 2021 due to covid , not a day goes by that I don't miss her! 😃
Wow just amazing , I’m a man, I served in the military , infantry , 2008-2012, it’s absolutely spectacular to see a woman do things I have no clue. Things have changed so much and definitely for the better. Outstanding.
Cheers!
Not sure what you’re getting at, both my wife and I have families with female pilot mechanics with multiple ratings going back to Rosie the Riveters. Both Chels and her dad are A&P mechanics with commercial pilot ratings. Chels herself has worked on massive WWIIt rotary engines, P51s flown all types of aircraft.
@@Highmaintenance_chels Hi Chelsea, Greetings from Australia. You are gorgeous. Hope you dont mind me saying. I used to fly 182's but its been a long time. Im thinking of taking it up again but Im getting a bit old I think now. Just turned 70. Thanks Josh for taking us to Sedona. We always see it on cowboy movies and its good to see what It really like, thanks to you. I have been top the Grand Canyon a few times but never to Sedona.
Looks like you two are living the dream! Take care of each other. I don’t think I ever seen a more beautiful couple. Fair Skies and Happy Landings!
Thanks so much for the beautiful scenery and tour of Sedona! Great video btw.
You’re not kidding, that’s some gorgeous scenery. And the view of the country side isn’t bad either! Lol
Hey Josh, I think she likes you...
whoaaa
Josh needs inputs … :)
Cringe alert
Loved the views. Thank you so much for taking us along.
Beautiful country, I love flying into this airport.....
LOVE SEDONA!!
I’m sure you did it, but thought it would be a good training moment for everyone to lean the mixture to the best power (highest RPM) during the run up at those high altitude airports.
I live in Tucson and would love to get some training on how to properly lean for take off, as well as the relatively new to me "lean of peak" method for cruise. Any recommendations? A few months ago, I took a CFII friend up for a flight, and much to my surprise, he pushed my mixture control to full rich on take off! It was 90 degrees that day. I always lean just slight when it's really hot. Is that good or not? We had a good discussing about it afterwords. Personally, I don't like ANYONE touching the power controls on take off.
I Suggest that you watch Martin Pauly Lean of Peak on RUclips. Great stuff!
Dude, I'm only 15 seconds into the video and I'm already mind-blown! It's been a lil while since I last visited your channel but in just a few seconds, I'm reminded of why you are the #1 Aviation RUclipsr of all time, in my opinion. Your vids are incredibly inspirational 👊🏾
Thanks for bringing us along
Looks amazing from the air.
I’m definitely adding the airport to my bucket list
Fly there now on Microsoft flight sim. My home airport.
Really appreciate the aerial views of the Sedona landmarks I've come to know and love. Discovered the southwest through a visit to Sedona in 2013, knew immediately that I must have been a southwesterner in a past life. Came back a bunch of times and discovered Prescott to Sedona's west, and the Embry Riddle Aeronautical University, which my youngest son then attended -- ended up not being a pilot but an aerospace engineer, now working for Lockheed Space Systems since 2018. We moved from NY State to Prescott in 2017, love being only short drive from Sedona instead of a 2500 mile flight. Have always wanted to take an aerial tour but loved your video -- Airport Mesa, Capitol Butte, Chimney Rock, the Courthouse, Cathedral Rock, Bell Rock, Ship Rock and all the others so beautifully laid out below. Gotta take an air tour. Or maybe it's not to late to go back and finish getting a license myself after starting and running out of money back in my 20s in the 1970s.... Thanks!
I am very very happy for you man. I have always admired your airmanship and now I even more admire your lady friend.. She is awesome. Do not lose her.
nice video as always! keep up the great work! love sedona airport!
If you ever find someone in life that looks at you the way Chelsea looks at Josh you probably made it 😊
Fully agree. Are they married?
True it’s nice to see, none of our British women look at our men like that 🤷🏻🇬🇧
yep money talks
@@dalemclean5103 u mad bro? couldn't be that they just love each other, right?
@@thatsoslender dude women do not love you they only love what you can do for them.
Thanks for the shout out! You guys were awesome to fly with. Let’s do it again soon!
Are you headed to SNF this week?
@@Highmaintenance_chels Absolutely! We will have a booth in the Warbirds section.
I envy the two of you. I earned my single engine recip in 77' at 17, learned in a 172 but migrated to a 412 Rockwell Aero-Commander which we owned. My best friend growing up in MA. went to Embry Riddle and taught me to fly when we were kids. I have traveled extensively both commercially and private jet after he was killed in a crash off of Andros Island in the Bahama's in 1980 but I let my license lapse and have not flown by myself since. We used to fly everywhere in that plane, it was a date magnet. I remember going to Wendy's on Cape Cod just because it was the only Wendy's in the state at the time. I really miss moving myself being pulled thru the air! Josh, marry the girl already, she's a diamond in the rough!
Great video you two. Very neat. Thanks
They like to say “phenomenal “ a lot. Adorable. They way she looks at him is true love. Great flying. Getting my PPL right now
I got a PPL. But, yet to find a girl half as hot as Chelsea, to take on a trip to Sedona (live in San Diego so it's a 3hr flight vs 8hr drive) :-D
Not sure if it's "true love" but they seem smitten with each other and that's all that really matters
I didn't realize until recently you guys are now based in Kingman for a while. My wife and I own a Cherokee 160 across the way at Sun Valley Airport, A20. We have done Sedona and Grand Canyon multiple times together. One of these days we should meet up and fly somewhere double date style. 😊
Hello to you and your wife!!!
I first flew into Sedona around 1985 and first thought was this is like landing on an anchored aircraft carrier. Home base was Falcon Field, Mesa AZ. Great video of your flight to Sedona.
Thanks guys. Beautiful view.
Josh, With your plane you have the skies, but with Chelsea....The Heavens.
I'm blushing - very sweet compliment
That is perfectly said. So beautiful. Seems so down and earth and cool. Great couple. Lucky man and lucky woman
that is the dumbest comment ever
What no name said. I've been with the same beautiful girl for nearly 48 years. Trust me, you two have something special that others can only dream of. Cherish it, and each other.
I concur...Josh is an extremely blessed man.
Josh, she is definitely a keeper! Love the channel, keep it up.
Awesome video! Beautiful views! Thanks for sharing! Have a wonderful day!
Great clip guys! Thanks for sharing!
thank you for share your life with us i had to stop my flight training due to health issues but still contiuning ground school so if my health improves i can get into the air
Thanks for flying with us here! It is so special to share with technology. Hope you continue to stay involved with the aviation community, there's a lot more than just flying
Hi Guys Great video and great team work. Chelsea needs to do a video series on getting her tailwheel endorsement and then a trip to Oshkosh in a cub. Big demand for RUclips tail wheel videos especially since Kevin Quinn blew up the Flying Cowboys.
Beautiful countryside out there! Thanks for the video!
Enjoyed following your adventure. Beautiful shots of the area.
The way she looks at you is something very special. Its hard to find that kind of kindred spirit but I believe you two are indeed great together. This is one cool scenic video topped off with one beautiful young lady at the controls! Loved it! Keep them coming you two!
A joy to watch you two enjoy. The way Chelsea looks at you should be cherished.
Exactly what I thought. when a woman looks at yuo like that it is true love.
Thanks for the memories when I was flying commercial helicopters in the Rocky Mountains. Sedona is truly amazing. Worked the power line going up Oak Creek Canyon to Fagstaff. Bruce
First timer here and now subscribed. This is EXACTLY what GA is all about. Looked like a day to be remembered.
Two Peas in a Pod. The two of you complement one another splendidly. I’m putting Sedona on my bucket list.
I noticed when you were on final into Kingman, there appeared to be what looked a number of Delta Airlines jets all parked together. Is that one of their storage locations?
I think that's a boneyard
Sedona was named after the wife cities first post master Theodore Schnebly. His wife mother just made up the name which was unusual for the 19th century. My wife grew up in the area while she was going to college she worked at Grand Canyon airport as well as Sedona. She would drive from Flagstaff, Grand Canyon, and Sedona almost daily.
We're always so glad they didn't decide to call the town "Schnebly"
Lovely vibe and video. Bless!!!
Great video guys. I just found your channel because I was watching a series of vids on the Rebuild Rescue channel and I happened to see your video on flying to Sedona. I went to Sedona back in the 80s the first time and fell in love with it so I've lived there off and on since 2000, but I've never seen it from the air so this was a real treat. Thanks for an awesome channel and a really fun time.
Amazing views. Arizona scenery wasn't too bad either.
real original
@@stingweeber6394 Its RUclips, have you ever seen an original comment on here? It's the same ones repeating on every channel.
Always good to land a little long there due to wind shear. I wad there when a Debonaire hit a downdraft. 3 people died. Also density altitude in the summer.
A 172 becomes a 2 place airplane if you fill up with fuel.
Great place. Not for beginners.
Yes, yes, yes. Steep approach and land on the aim marks. There have been several accidents there because of downdrafts off the "USS Sedona." Lean for takeoff, too. one of my favorite places. Tri-Pacer and Mooney based at E95 (Benson, AZ).
I am a german Pilot and had an unforgettable flight to Sedona 4 years ago. We stood at the Skyranch, experiencing a colourful sundowner on their patio. Sedona is for sure on a lot of bucket lists.
Found your channel not long after contemplating life while sitting on the vortex rocks below you at 6:39. Thought I may have seen y'all since there was a near full moon when I was in the area, but then right after you mentioned your timeframe for having been there. With any luck Northern AZ will have changed my life. Cool to see it from the air, even if vicariously. For now.
I just wish my wife enjoyed flying, you two make it so enjoyable.
your relationship is truly a blessing, your videos have always been an inspiration... looking forward to your future.... together....
Right? They fit so well together! I don't want to embarrass any of them but the looks she gives Josh is just adorable, there's nothing but love there! 😁
Seemingly kinda one sided.
@@XX-166 you mean from my comment or between them? There's nothing but true love between them, if you can't see that you're rather blind! 😛
@@RobertForslund whatever you say Ray Charles
@@XX-166 uhm, okay... 🙄
Great video you two! excellent vistas and interaction is both warm and professional...thanks for sharing...
Thank you! It is truly a privilege to experience traveling 'low and slow' through such beautiful parts of the country, even more special to be able to share it with others :)
What a beautiful flight. I keep watching your videos to keep me motivated and get back to studying for my private pilot. My good friend and business partner who was a pilot passed away suddenly in May 2022, and it put a bit of a damper on my motivation. Hopefully one day I'll be making that approach into sedona.
