Hay Matt
Looking forward to more GA flying.
Good to see you looking so well.
Been following you since your how to fsx videos. So proud and happy to see you come this far. Been a very motivating experience to follow you throughout your journey so far. To more. Cheers.
A tip: watch series on Kaldrostream. Me and my gf have been using them for watching a lot of movies recently.
@Kane Dillon yup, have been watching on kaldrostream for months myself =)
@Kane Dillon Yup, I have been using KaldroStream for years myself =)
Flew G-ASSW today. Nice plane.
Merseyflight is a top school
Having recently gotten a PPL myself, I can't tell you how happy I am for you Matt. You're looking fantastic, and clearly enjoying life. Flying is one of life's gifts that just keeps on giving. Good luck on the rest of your training.
It's great to see you living your dream! I'm 56 and still struggling with my weight and health...and not flying. Seeing how far you've come is an inspiration. Thanks for sharing it with us!
@@mattdavies Thanks, Matt.
It is amazibg. Just finished my license last year. The fealing of your first solo. Greatest moment in my life
Here's a tip I heard from another Piper pilot for remembering the trim direction: If you turn it clockwise, it will knock you on the scruff, which will make your head pitch forward; if you turn it counterclockwise, it will knock you on the forehead, which will make your head pitch up. Though I'm afraid it only works when you're seated on the left seat. Hope that helped.
Wow Matt! I haven’t been around the channel very often lately, but I can’t help but feel a sense of pride in you and happiness at the incredible progress you’ve made. GA flying is super fun, welcome to the real skies 🤟.
Following your transformation was really inspirational and it is just wholesome seeing you do this itl stuff! I don’t remember for how many years I’ve been following you, it’s probably been since I was flying in FSX as a teen. I don’t know you in person but you’ve been accompanying me since back when virtually and it brings joy to my heart seeing you succeed with your dreams.
I’m really looking forward to seeing more of this series!
This is great to see! I did my PPL with Neil and the chaps from Merseyflight a few years ago. Currently studying for my ATPL exams and flying a warrior from Barton, if you ever fancy a flight from grass give me a shout! :)
You've done enough for the flightsim community over the years, no regular viewer would begrudge you getting freebie lessons off the back of youtube views - it's them giving something back to you - the ultimate thank you.
Really cool to see you come this far matt!
I've been watching for around 4 years now and FSX + its community of people like yourself are the reason i got into aviation.
If you remember i was the guy who suggested the Leeds to Heraklion flight in your "Lets mirror" series and i still thinks its awesome you picked my route! :)
Thanks for putting out great content. Cheers
Enjoy the training! Its alot of hard work and dedication, its totally worth it.
I’ve never seen such clean aircraft!
This is so amazing Matt, i have watched you for so long, and it`s so amazing to see you fly an actuall plane! Never stop dreaming and never give up! you can do this!
You're looking good Matt, and its clear that you are having a blast these days. Big thanks to Merseyflight for their generosity! I just know these IRL flying vids are going to be lots of fun! If you have time, we would enjoy your take on the new REX Environment Force that just released a few days ago. Cheers!
Strong sense of justice in the brilliant arrangement you have made with the flying school. Also, credit to the school staff who can see your potential. Love the videos!
As a PPL who has watched your videos since I was 14(I’m now 20), I wish you all the best! Good luck!
So happy to see you killing it on this new journey. What a last 12 months for you. All the best.
Depending when this was I might have actually seen this since i spot at Liverpool quite a fair bit
Hi matt! My dads a commercial pilot (Boeing 737) and I plan to follow his footsteps! He occasionally takes me flying in a grob 115 (G-BVHE) and is showing me how to fly (allows me to taxi, take off and fly, however landing is very tricky for me ahah) I wish you all the best with your PPL and (if you are planning on it) your CPL
You were the person that made me take aviation seriously and I’m forever grateful for that. Started my flight training back in January and I’m about 25 hours in. Thank you so much Matt and enjoy every moment in the air. (P.S. The aviation bug never goes away lol)
Well done Matt, you’ve worked hard in many ways to get here and it is fantastic to see you sitting in the real thing and taking to the skies. Watching this is making me want to head over to A2A!
Hi Matt, congrats on everything you've achieved can't wait to see the videos. I'm a glider pilot and I can tell you there's nothing better than the feeling you get on your first solo. Good luck😎👍
Dude I am SO excited to see your journey progress through time. I wish you the best of luck and thanks for sharing this amazing adventure, Matthew!
Love the fact that you are able to do this Matt. I hope you are able to continue it mate :)
Good for you, mate. I'm well happy for you! Congratulations on the weight loss and the licence progress - blue side up, brown side down and clear skies, man.
Omg Matt you’re looking so well! Keep it up dude! 👍👍👍
Great to see you looking so well Matt, all the best for you getting your PPL.
Great vid .looking forward to the flight vids .good luck
Great to see you looking so well! Super excited to see more IRL flying! I too am currently working toward my PPL, at 7.5 hrs at the moment, training out of my hometown here on the west coast of the South Island in New Zealand!
Congratulations man!! Wish you the best
Finally! I was waiting for this video. I live about 20 minutes away from Liverpool flight school so im starting my flight lessons after GCSE's. Glad to see your enjoying your time and again congrats on the weight loss
Awesome stuff Matt! 👍👍
Enjoy Matt. The guys over at Merseyflight are great
Awesome! I'm so glad you're on your way. I can't wait to begin flying, and hopefully I live my dream as well.
Hey Matt! Been a watcher for many years, so glad to see you doing the real thing I am currently a student at merseyflight 5 hours in. I also currently work in LPL, what a great idea & video. I look forward to seeing more footage from you. Hopefully see you around the apron or on the radios👍🏼
Different livery. DUUUHHH!!!!!!!!
JK Keep up the good work Matt. I am living vicariously through you because I am unable to get my PPL right now. Good luck, and keep flying.
PS Good job on the weight loss. You look great.
This was a great video keep it up can’t wait to see more
I'm also working for my PPL in North Dakota with some lovely P-28-181's! Keep up the good work! Can't wait to see more from the "learning to fly" series!
Hyped for next video!
I've just started my road to PPL wit Merseyflight, I can't wait to see your video's and progress in this series.
That is awesome, we get great videos, the flying school gets free advertising, and you get a break on your flying costs. The best for all involved. Good Luck!
Cheers man I hope I will someday get in command of a real plane as well. Enjoy!
Congrats on starting your flight training!! Just so happens I'm also starting my PPL this summer. Watching your videos will help keep me motivated. Best of luck!
for the slow mo bits at the start, a little tip; If you're trying to do slowmo but you didn't record in high enough FPS to get a (smooth) nice result, you can try optimal flow slow-mo. It will smooth it up for you ;) It's like magic.
I might catch you at the school some time... I'm hoping to get checked out on the Cherokee early next month, in the meantime I'm still hiring their PA-38s to keep my hours up. When you get your licence we'll have to take SW and LU out together for a land-away
Thanks for sharing this Matt, getting my PPL is something I've wanted to do for ages and I had no idea there was facilities at Liverpool.
Great intro ! Can't wait to see you do your first solo ! I will never forget how terrifying & exhilarating my first solo was !
I have recently started my PPL lessons as well as of April 14th, 2019 in N75989 at Brackett Field (KPOC) in La Verne, California here on the west coast of the US. 75989 is a 1976 CESSNA 172N Skyhawk. Sunday, May 5th, 2019 is my 3rd hour. Looking forward to watching your IRL flying videos!
Stop watch is for Instrument flying when doing a hold.good luck Matt!
Great video matt. So excited to see more IRL flying from you
0:29 that jumpscared me! Damn!
This is beyond fantastic! Absolutely loving these irl videos. Wishing you the best of luck and hoping you enjoy each and every moment of your flying career! (Also, those two planes look fantastic and in great shape
Good luck Matt really hope you make your dream. I have every faith you will get there. If you havnt already take a look at Steveo kinevo. He has chosen an interesting career path in aviation.
Still has that spinning exterior view in the start just like his sim videos🤣🤣🤣🤣legend
Great video Matt.
Your looking great Matt, I hope you achieve your goals and see you with your ATPL in the future. Good luck
HF antennas on G-ASSW are offset but not the other (in-line). Congrats on the training, you've earned it!
This is awesome.
Is it Mercy Flight? :-) However, I love Matt's Videos. I literally devour them.
Awesome content as usual, loving this new idea!! A fantastic idea! Hoping to see more 😱
thank you for taking us with you on your journey :)
This is unreal. Such an achievement.
Enjoyed the video! I’m doing my PPL aswell In a 152 and just tried the piper; what a joy to fly 😍
Awesome!
I have flown with both ravenair and MerseyFlight and they are both great. They have only been experience flights but i hope to start my PPL sometime in the future. I flew G-BSLU with MerseyFlight and the Tomohawk with Ravenair, great planes and cant wait for the future videos :)
Brilliant video as always Matt! Looking forward to seeing more PPL videos in the near future :)
matt what are your main goals right now? do you want to be an airline pilot or a corporate pilot? anyway i follow you channel since 2014, i'm very very proud of you! best wishes to you
Wow awesome video matt, going to share this video to people
Looking good man stick with the flying, when I get older I want to become a full time pilot and have a lot of time to save up since I am only 17, I am from where squirrel is from in between Liverpool and Manchester and will definitely have a look at the company for my future don't let anyone stop you from making these irl flight videos.
Well done Matt hope he lessons go very well for u mate
This is going to be a great journey
fuck yeah been waiting for this :DD You deserve this after all your hard work!
Beautiful planes Matt. Makes me wanna start back up in G-BNTD at Doncaster, must get some more money together. Never realised how much I missed it.
10 hours of flight total ? Hey we're almost to the same point! These days my instructor told me that I had 4 or 5 flights remaining before I begin my lone pilot flights :D
@@mattdavies thank ya !
You can count on that 👌
You’ve made some big progress, not only in health but in flying aswell
51 years old and still flying like a beaut 😍😍😍
Amazing video Matt. well done my friend!
What year is that plane? I learned to fly in a Cherokee 140 in the early 1980s when I was a very young teenager, but it was a much newer version (although still old). I think it's really CUTE that after all your sim-flying the big airliners, you are now humbled, and have to learn the basics and fly for real like the rest of us. You have a childlike sense of wonder. Congrats of the weightloss. You seem NICE now, whereas before you could be kind of a jerk (maybe you still are), but you seem more pleasant.
Super cool!! Keep it coming. Really interesting.
Hey Matt!
I am also looking forward to more GA flying videos in the future. I am also learning to fly at the mo, I am flying a 1988 PA28-161 Warrior 2 (I see on G-INFO tat G-ASSW is 1964 and G-BSLU is 1968) registered G-BWOH out of Gloucestershire Airport! :D
I look forward to watching this series, I am looking to start my PPL next year and will be looking for places around Manchester. So it will be interesting to see how you get on with Merseyflight as they were one of the companies I was looking at.
Dude you look great! So cool to see your effort really pay off!
Good luck
Sure will speak to you when you book out
Good luck man, hope it's will work well for you.
Love this mate your looking so well 👌👍 hopfully see you in the sky sometime buddy 👌❤️
Hope all goes well👍👍
Would love to fly with you someday Matt, we also use the PA28 at my flight school, but it is interesting to see how different they are fx. the trim, throttle, switches and avionics placement.
Just subbed so I can follow your progress, I'd like to get a PPL just for a hobby, albeit a really expensive hobby. Looking forward to seeing more content and quite like how your upfront about being offered lessons/flight time theres absolutely nothing wrong with the win win deal for both parties. Will you be doing commentary of the flight videos explaining what you need to learn and how its being put into practice?
Also not that its a major issue but G-BSLU has a screw missing from the overhead panel next to the trim wheel
Looking fly, Matt! Yes pun intended. 👍
Please matt csn you do a flight on the a350 from manchester to doha
Matt, with your thousands of hours in the simulator, I’m curious to know how real life flying compares for you? Is it what you thought, did all simming seem to help? It must have, particularly on the Comms. I’m sure that you make the CFI’s job very easy.
Matt Davies yep, agree. Also, sims don’t capture the landing environment quite right. I’m pretty sure you have A2A T6 Texan. That’s probably the best landing Sim out there. Anyways, thoroughly enjoying this series thank you so much.
G-ASSW LMFAO BEST TAILNUMBER EVER
Loved it Matt
matt you gotta react FSX2020
I’m assuming G-ASSW is from a considerably newer model year?
Another great video!
Hello there guys Matt here hope you are well😌
There is a mini jack named MUSIC below the radios.....is that actually what it is for?...
