Smooth landing Sir..
When I was a kid, growing up in Birmingham, Alabama, there was a local band that played gigs all over town named Telluride. When I joined the Air Force after high school, my tech school was at Lowry AFB in Aurora CO. One weekend, some tech school buddies and I took a trip over to Telluride. OMG, it’s my favorite place on earth now. To fly into KTEX and land on runway 27 would be a bucket list item to this pilot in training. Congratulations! I’m totally jealous.
Glad you enjoyed the video. It's definitely a bucket list airport. Thank you for you service and best of luck with the flight training!
Somehow RUclips recommended this video AFTER I landed Telluride. Nice job algorithm. Really, great work. What's the next suggested video, "Watch this BEFORE you buy a plane?!"
Great job to both of you ! Thanks for sharing your flight.
More than pilots appreciate this video. It's our vocational habit to keep a nose to the window when we fly into a new project. There is a lot of insight into geology and biology that comes from an eye in the sky.
Very nice video, guys. I've never flown the Rockies, so this gives us flat-lander's a good look at what we're in for if we decide to fly there.
Who else isn't a pilot but flies in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 and just goes to see videos of people flying at airports you also have flown on in the sim?
Dang!! You got me . . I thought it was just me Lol
Just did that now. What did you do different
Very nice.
Could not have had the life I've had without all the professional folks that got me there and back.
Its nice to hear gratitude at advanced level. Good on you for a life well lived. So far!
Beautiful place !! Nice plane and video. Thanks!!!
Nice landing. I've driven by that airport many times in the fall. This was a much appreciated perspective.
Glad you enjoyed! When we were skiing on the mountain were always craning our necks to see if any planes were landing or taking off. Great views of the airport!
Been there on a summer day, giving density altitude a new meaning!
I grew up in Colorado and skied alot. My first jet to fly was a Learjet. My last jet to fly was the MD-11 Jumbo Jet...and of course my Cessna 182. Retired in Florida.
I think I will go visit this place in my RV-4 sometime. Always wanted to fly into a challenging place. Looks awesome!
I flew into KTEX back in the late 90's in a Citation II, early in my career. What a beautiful town.
I'm surprised you never went back; especially if you have a Citation.
I like the king air , for ever.
Great landing. I give it a 10. Thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching!
I’ll gladly provide the 10th “like” here for the “10” designation 😊
Thanks for the great ride along & you have a new Subscriber :)
Great vid! Thanks for sharing!!
Looked challenging but what a great plane to do it in. Always liked the king air.
Thanks for watching!
Is that what Clutch Cargo flew?
interesting to watch, great copilot! Thanks for sharing..........
Sometimes people are good at what they do. This guy is good. imho
So's the boy!
Loaded RUclips onto my SmartTV and watched this approach/landing on a 55” screen - nice touch on the landing..! 🛬 - Rich, Melbourne, FL
That's awesome! Thanks for the comment, I think I'll try doing the same.
I know this is a year old, but must ran across it. You did a great job. When you guys were looking for the airport, so was I. I miss my flying days. Flew 20+ years Air Force + almost as much commercially, EverGreen (UPS), ATA, Japan Air, & TWA... Fly Safe & God Bless!!
Glad you enjoyed the video. That's quite the career. Thank you for paving the way for aviators to come!
Gorgeous flight and landing!
Have you seen Grand Tour Season 2 episode 6? If not, it is a must see for any Telluride fans. Check it out on Amazon.
I'll have to check it out
Greg, Amazing the Colorado Environmental Dept. allowed them to crash a gas guzzling car off the cliff. Thanks for the tip. Amazingly beautiful location for an airport. Pucker factor through the roof with minimums weather I'll bet.
I was shocked they were able to do that....but it made for good tv!
Premier1driver has shown us many videos of telluride take offs and landings. One of his landings was barely at minimums. Great pilot that Greg
@@richardmurrayjr.2338 You must have confused Colorado with California LOL the EPA has polluted Colorado more than Top Gear (I mean GT) ever will; just google EPA and the Animas River....
That was awesome! Thank you for posting this. So nice watching safe pilots come into a tricky airport and land so beautifully. Is the left-seat pilot an airline Captain? He flies like one, that’s why I’m asking. That was great to watch!
Beautiful!
Hooo! What a ride!
One of the few airports where the runway length is a smaller sum than the runway elevation......not a pleasant combination in any condition. May the force be with you.
Beautiful area. BMW Motorcycle "Top Of The Rockies" Rally is in Paonia, CO and I have ridden in those mountains. Breathtaking views.
good job bud. i always enjoy your vids. and merry christmas :)
jamani1086 thanks for your continued support Jamani! Glad you enjoyed the video. Merry Christmas to you too!
nice. enjoyed that.
Beautiful landing 👌😎
Great job fellas!
What a phantastic plane you own. Congratulations! This would be my dream private aircraft, you made the best choice.
Thanks a lot! An absolute delight to fly!
Landed there many times....lived there for 18 years. Cessna 152 turbo. I've had Mt. Sneffles 100 foot off my wingtip several times at 14.2k. Tom Cruises house is a half mile behind the airport same elevation.
Nice job
Been in there many times with a G200
second wire - sweet!
Ok, next time I'm in Denver, I'm renting a CFI and a Bonanza & going to the mountains! We just don't have this kind of beauty in the DFW area, or really anywhere in Texas. Wow! Great video!
Very nice!!
You’ve gotta be kidding me! That’s like an aircraft carrier landing. Great job 👍🏻
Not even close.
Beautiful approach - Beautiful landing
Many thanks!
Nice job gentleman, good CRM, good planning, made it look easy. My first landing at Telluride was down to minimums with 15 know tailwind. The circling approach for 27 is the opposite of the missed approach, which I did on my first attempt because we picked the wrong approach plate.
Markus Wolff That’s rough. Glad we got to do this VFR first.
Reminds me of flying into Billings MT. The airport also sits on a mesa.
Perfect landing
Beautiful! Can’t wait to fly here in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020!
What a wonderful voice that young man has.
Thats not creepy at all coming from an old man
Telluride airport is in a fine place, for sure. Great views. :-)
Great views! Unfortunately, the snow was pretty sparse this year. I imagine it's normally all white up there in winter. Thanks for watching!
Excellent in all respects!
You guys make it look easy...never mind the arm chair pilot comments. The King Air is an awesome aircraft. Thanks for the video.
Our glider club traveled from COS to Telluride for a weekend of soaring. I took the Super Cub for towing, fun place to fly during the day and an equally fun place to party at night.
Did you sleep with a transsexual in To Hell You Ride after the party? Nothing but rugmunchers and gays there.
@FlyingTexas, Great video Sir! I fly a King Air 250 which is a little more updated and sophisticated than the 90. The Pilot did a great job on such a treacherous airport. I have personally landed there twice in the past 2 years. The FBO folks there are very accommodating and a pleasure to work with. The most challenging I have encountered is Catalina Island.
Enjoy your videos!
Didn't see this earlier so I apologize for not responding sooner. That's awesome. The 250 is a dream plane. The perfect plane in my opinion. I agree the FBO at KTEX is great! Would like to land at Catalina one day!
Most challenging FBO or landing field at Catalina?
Looking nice.
Great copilot!
Great landing!!! A+!
Thank you, Alex!
first.... :)
amazing, beautiful and interessting video. doesn´t look easy, to find the airport between the mountains :)
Jaguar79gt Thanks Jaguar! You’re correct and on top of that the KTEX is at 9,000 ft.
That was very smooth!
Thank you! :)
Man, this place is in the middle of nowhere. It does have some great viewing though and it looks damn cold too. Great flight and landing.
Appreciate it, Craig!
Craig Pennington I went last year...most am amazing place in US I feel
Very nice landing!! Great job Men!
Glad you enjoyed it. Happy Holidays!
i used to live not to far from telluride never seen the airport but thats a crazy airport no doubt.
In the early 1990s, I worked for Mesa Airlines/United Express at Denver Stapleton. During the winter ski season, it seemed like our B1900 flights to TEX had to divert to Alamosa almost more often than not because of minimums in TEX. The charter bus companies did very well by us. I think they eventually dropped that destination.
Alamosa???? Maybe Montrose.
The airstrip is short, and scary from the air. Beechcraft 1700 and smaller. Yes, the pilot has to be good! Hit the runway wrong, and you end up smacked in a cliff! Telluride is worth the trip! Beautiful area and town!! Blows away Aspen!
Frank, I want to check out Aspen at some point, but from the landing videos I've seen I'd want someone who has landed there before to be PIC. You're right, Telluride has some great views. Unfortunately, the snow wasn't great this winter. :(
FlyingTexas Aspen is gorgeous, don't get me wrong! As a New Yorker, the Rockies are a paradise! Clean air. Clean water. Pikes Peak should not be missed!
Lots of Texans are permanently parked on the sides of Colorado hills.
Very nice
Thinking taking off will be a little more challenging
Glad you enjoyed it! Perhaps I'll make a video on take off at some point.
Very nice video
Sweet!
Very nice view, I would think twice before trying to land there. I looks super cold also. Never find that in NC.
I like how the yoke comes out at a slight up angle as the pilot pull back and lift the nose on a King Air, I was un aware of this.
Great job! 👊🏼
Thanks! 👍
Nice job!
Well done
Light King Airs are great single pilot aircrafts. Military depends on King Airs renamed C-12. Fantastic planes.
Also the T-44!
Nice forgiving airplane!
Solid pilot.
Greased that one, nicely done controlling the sink at 9,000 MSL.
That’s not counting density alt.
First time on mesa
Buttered Is the preferred word
The approach in FSX is tough enough. I can only imagine in real life with a King Air.
Nice job.
About the only thing that I didn't like with this flight was the fact that I wasn't aboard in Telluride when you landed. Nice King Air, great landing. Kudos!
Hahaha thank you, Ed!
So smooth I fell asleep on approach. I was waiting for more turbulence!
4 whites on the PAPI! Try that with a jet and you will have to make a go-around... Turboprops are more forgiving if you are coming in hot and high, but you obviously know your aircraft and that you can still do it, flying 1000 ft above the intended profile... smooth landing, nicely done!
Nicely executed approach and landing. I really hate the setup of that airport.
Too funny. When you made your final turn and the airport came into view I was thinking to myself , "why do they have side by side runways ?"
Wasn’t that a butter-smooth landing! I noticed no vibration or bump at all. Nice work!
Well done. It would have been nice to see a shot of the airplane from the tarmac.
It's not Lukla but still a challenging approach! well done
I just ride my motorcycle there, camp in Ouray.
Nice vid! Just to avoid confusion, though, this was not a circle-to-land approach. They cancelled IFR on arrival. So it was a visual approach. Circle -to-land is an IFR approach using nav aids to reach minimums on the opposing runway to the one you land on. At minimums, you steer 45 degrees left or right, then follow the downwind heading, maintaining constant visual contact with the runway, then turn in for your final. That’s obviously not what happened here. Still, a nice vid and a great place to fly!
jaunty17 You’re correct. I’ll edit the video description when I have access to a computer. (Currently only mobile)
Well, if you're going to change the description I should correct myself as well. I said it was a "visual approach", but actually, that is also an IFR approach, where the call-out "established" is replaced by "airfield in sight", whereupon ATC gives you clearance to land the RWY and sends you over to the tower. None of that happened either, again, since you had cancelled IFR on arrival. So it was really just a normal VFR approach, with, I suppose a left base join?
for an added treat and better view, try tin cup or bachelor colorado,,,,pitkin or st elmo
Wow, glad I watched that before I attempted to land at Telluride...
I just flew this approach in the Honda Jet in X-Plane 12 and it wasn't easy to find and the approach is tricky.
Sweet
Almost as fun as Aspen!
Just like in poker, you've got to have a King Air or better just to open in this situation. Wide open approaches, but the field elevation is higher than the highest cruising altitude that I've ever flown at on even my longest cross country flights. Non turbine aircraft need not apply. Nice job.
jbj27406 Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment!
in the summer you need the entire runway for a 172... neat place
Landing a hang glider in a field at Telluride wakes you up regarding density altitude. No matter how hard you flare, you smack. I like aircraft now, they have wheels.
It 'appears' a bit easier than say, Homer Alaska or Kodiak Island.
Now those places have peaks drops and very high winds.
One time it took me three consecutive round trips for refueling just to land once on Kodiak Island Airport. You can only land from one direction and chances are the air current will also being going the same direction often times exceeding tail wind approach and landing maximums. Add to that is the very very likely fact the if the tail wind is absent... you can be sure that the air coming over the other end of the Island is a low cloud bank. In which case makes it impossible to land considering while I was stationed there... they didn't have an ILS system. When they finally got one it made little difference as any professional pilot will tell... " You can't land on what you can't see, especially when the end of the runway ends near a small mountain.
I also had to make several landing attempts at Attu in a C-130 only to have to turn back either to Kodiak if the weather was clear or further north to Anchorage.
Bill Yost - Who did you fly with and when were you up there? I spent a year on Adak back in 86.
Nice
Wow, needle in a haystack.
"Nice!" I agree. Right on the hash marks, right on centerline, on speed. Some principles everyone landing at high-altitude airports can emulate.
Random question, but what's the sound alert at 0:14 for?
Very competent, all the way around. Well flown; well filmed. Ignore the armchair quarterbacks...the profession is full of 'em.
