    The fact that he immediately wants everyone on his team to be able to get a license and share his aircraft is admirable. I can't imagine having a boss that wants to do this for his people. Friends or not, Garrett is a class act.

      Yes, a great team. Hopefully everyone remembers that it is his channel, and they ultimately work for him. I think he treats them right, and they enjoy coming to work each day. Who wouldn't love to work for Cleetus with how he treats everyone. Working when it is more like hanging out with friends, working on all sorts of projects, having fun.

    @d.mcdave8880 Год назад +2

    Cleetus, you never cease to amaze me. I've been a pilot for nearly 30 years now, and I can say it takes a special kind of person to commit to the lifestyle. You have got to be sharp, serious, always learning, humble, analytical, physically and mentally fit, always thinking ahead, fearless yet respectful. It also takes a financial commitment. There are less than 1% of the population who are licensed pilots. I can see the joy flying brings to you, and the fact that you want to give that joy to your crew speaks volumes as to your character as a man. You really are leading by example. I could not be more impressed. Thank you for making this world a better place.

    This is awesome brother. I remember your video a couple years ago when you tried to fly and when I saw you with Paty in another video I absolutely knew it. I knew you would get your license. Great job. As a pilot myself you were going to have a blast it’s the best thing you’ve ever done. Are you planning on going to Oshkosh in July? That would make a perfect video.

I’ve recently lost a great mentor due to a single engine failure in a borrowed plane when his was being maintenanced. Love you man and just want you to be on the lookout at all possibilities with how much you are worth to many!

    Not going to lie I got worried 3-4 years ago when you were talking about Aviation because it felt like something that was done on a whim without too much thought about it. Seeing now though everything you have done to prepare for this day, not rushing in to anything, and taking all the necessary steps to achieve your goals.... so awesome to see. Proud of you, and excited to see more to come!

      I was a chef and I had a 100 seat Cafe, when I started I was like Gordon Ramsey, way to strict and a jerk, and the employees were meh, just going through the motions.
      Then i decided to genuinely treat them like family, love them like brothers and sisters and the place exploded with business, profit for myself and even more for my new family of workers. I made payroll bigger than profit, and in turn they were the hardest working team that I could ever dream of. They would kill for me and I would die for them.
      Then my plan came together for myself, they were graduating from college, some already did, and the place was so legendary the offer finally came. Sold it for 17x what i had in it.
      Moral of the story is, believe and love your employees, they are the ones who do the work, and in turn the pot of gold will be there.
      Peace!

    Congrats on the new Carbon Cub!! I used to fly w/ a friend who owned an original CUB, though I am not a pilot, he would either put me in the front seat when we went flying ( he would fly it from the back seat) or of course while I sat in the back he would fly it from the front. Good times. My only concern out there by the Drag Way and Freedom Factory is (which every pilot is trained for) is SITUATIONAL AWARENESS, near those monster power lines along RT.64 !!!!!! Have Fun !!
