Justin, as a retired ATC guy I can tell you that, even though they don’t tell you, those controllers really appreciate your professionalism and preparedness. It makes everyone’s job much easier. And this was another great video.
@@1littlelee You obviously don't know much about what goes on behind the scenes in aviation. Suggest you visit an approach control or an ARTCC and ask the controllers how they feel.
Flying an IFR plan at altitude is just a series of handoffs from ground to departure to Centers along the way to approach control to tower to ground. As long as you don’t have any problems, it’s no problem. Just stay ahead of the airplane. As a former USAF multi-engine pilot, I d like to recognize your excellent coordination and “living by the checklist”. Good job and many years of success ahead to both of you.
Watched this with my wife, she said, “well of course they got a perfect KAXX landing day”. We full time out of Angel Fire, and a 13 knot crosswind is wonderful because it is so rare. I practiced dozens of crosswind landings in my Saratoga before I moved it full time to Angel Fire. I would say the average crosswind is typically 16G20. I am comfortable enough with crosswind landings there that 20G25 isn’t too extraordinary. Just got to plan for it and be ready to go around. Glad you guys had a nice, smooth day coming in.
I am only a VFR Private but the knowledge I am gaining from this and all your other videos are PRICELESS. Thank you from the TOP and BOTTOM of my heart Josh for your AWESOME flight vids.
LOVE the long format videos, Josh! Being able to sit "back seat" on the King Air, as especially in the R22 copter was an incredible thrill. Justin is an amazing pilot, and you 'flew' the right seat to perfection. Please do more. -Dave
This reminds me of when I got the opportunity to fly a Part 135 Cargo flight with a good friend in a Pilatus PC-12. So new and such a great experience. I'm glad you got this opportunity and shared it with us!!!
Great video! I like the longer format. If you have the opportunity with the 4k camera, do zoom in on changes to relevant controls. It will add a great understanding of how the manipulation of the controls impact the overall flight (altering heading bug and managing flight director). Another great video!
14:14 this is the coolest shot I have ever seen, both pilots with arms crossed, with sunglasses like a Boss's, Your channel is amazing, I don't know how to fly, but this is so interesting for me and just how professional you are, you will en up being an awesome Capt.
Justin, I love your videos! Always aspired to fly, however my military career has left me disabled. I still get to fly on my simulator at home though. Watching your videos are the next best thing to flying in my opinion. Keep up the great work Sir!
@@WindowLickingDeer I almost exclusively use MSFS 2020 now. It is by far the best simulator around now. Xplane just fell behind in quality, and their aircraft are too expensive. They had a good run for quite a while though, and I am glad they had set the bar for so long.
Thanks Josh for keeping the long version. PIC seems like a great pilot. The King Air is great aircraft but with with two engines and cost, I would opt for a jet or TBM. Thanks for sharing the part 91 flight.
I really enjoyed this video. The longer duration videos are great. I know how challenging it can be for you editing a 2+ hour multi-angle flight! The hard work is paying off, your videos are great!
Awesome, Josh. Thank-you for the videos. I have followed your videos for the last several years, using them as examples for my own flying. I just started my CFI training after passing my Commercial Checkride in October.
Love the KA-200! I work for a Beechcraft dealership for 14+yrs and been through many, many 200's the biggest event I went through at Beech was way back there was an AD to change the fwd outbd wing spar and it only gave a few flight hrs to remove them, we had so many 200's stacked on our ramp, that was a tough job, I'll bet we did 35 to 40 KA's I've turned wrenches for 35+ yrs and I'd say 30 of those on Beechcraft! Great, great aircraft.
Brought back lots of memories. I was a Naval Aircrewman on the UC-12B (Beach super 200C) as a crew chief, and have close to 1500 hours in it. Got lots of stick time on dead heads and ran right seat several times. We ran from Wichita to Brunsiwck Maine and worked KC quite a bit. Funny thing kept needing to ask for Victor Freq, they kept giving me 200mhz freqs. Thanks for giving this old guy a smile.
Great video Josh! I'm also thankful you didn't shorten this video. I'm an aspiring multi and turbine pilot so I appreciate being able to watch a couple of pros at work in that environment. It's so different from what I currently do, which is scenic flights in a Waco YMF. Because of this, I thoroughly enjoy watching these types of videos. Keep up the good work!
Gents - Great job here ! This is the BEST King Air video I've ever seen - nothing else even comes close . . . And, it must be the ultimate King Air 200 in the skies -- the updated avionics really stand out along with the many other upgrades you mentioned
Great job of working together. Thanks for leaving the videos long...For those of us who don't get to fly any more, any moment looking at the panel and out the window is a good one...A few comments about cross wind landings. There are two parts to them. I hear you talk a lot about the first part, getting the plane on the ground safely...(wing down, crab then straighten...etc.)...The second part nearly got me a Hobbs one day. Strong cross wind from the right. As the airplane slowed, the effectiveness of the tail surface diminished slowly until about 40 miles per hour it was almost gone...the plane wind-socked slowly into the wind....first I ran out of rudder, then I ran out of brake (locking up the downwind brake just as we passed between two runway lights on the right.) That second part was a doozy...We knew we were at the limit for the aircraft, and the runway was very wide. Guess if I had known how bad it was going to get, I would have landed a little across the runway so that I had more room on the upwind side when everything said turn right... Great job on the videos...thanks for taking us along.
This reminds me of when I used to accompany my flight instructor on ferry trips. I got quite a bit of multi-engine time and actual instrument time doing this back in the 1980's.
Terrific experience to ride along with you and Justin in the longer, cleaner version. He is the consummate professional pilot. When Justin mentioned the King Air had been repainted, it reminded me of the time you flew your Cessna to receive a fresh coat of paint and I thought, "Man, Josh sure has come a long way in his piloting journey!" Thanks for what you do. Keep up the great work!
Loved the video thanks guys, watching from the Philippines. Met your channel before I went to Missionary pilot training, now I’m doing what I love, thanks for helping me on my journeys. God bless
Another brilliant video sir. Your introduction is very professional. From watching, you are so ready to be right seat for an airline! Lovely machine too!
It’s always great to see fledgling aviator get opportunities to fly new aircraft. That’s pretty much how I got into flying corporate. When I was a line tech I was in the right place and the right time and got my high altitude Endorsement in a CJ2. I flew King Airs Part 135 for awhile then just recently a Citation Mustang and CJ1. Last week I had to pick up the Mustang for maintenance and took one of my previous students with me so he could get some right seat experience.
Just watching the video has become high tech Josh ,only say you must be loving it . kinda like being a company pilot it,s really cool to watch you make videos for us all to watch don't ever stop , easy to see it's something you have a natural talent for.
Very well done. I don't fly much anymore but one day I will. Kids are about grown and I'm about to do it again. It's a long story but I remember longing to fly like this. Life took me a different way but I still appreciate it all. Keep going, what you are doing matters, whether it's to somebody like me that wants to hobby fly into the sunset or somebody 18 years old that wants to roar into the sky like I did back then.
As always excellent video! As for the longer videos, I didn't care for the length of the city tour video. Just because it is something you've shown several times. But this video was perfect. It actually left me wanting more!
I once "flew" a King Air simulator and found it both challenging and stimulating. Having that much power available is, for a single-engine pilot, nothing less than exhilarating. Piloting at flight levels is very, very different from lower level flight.
That was GREAT. Pilot, good job, very smooth. I learned a bit. The visual was awesome. You just gotta keep up making vids. Thanks again. This just made my day.
Pro in the plane, pro in video making, a real pleasure to share this flight Josh, you did a great job. You got a fan, here, in the middle of indian ocean 👍
Not current nor proficient, probably never will be unless I hit MegaMillions or Powerball, but I most certainly do enjoy flying with you, and others like Chops, Jerry W, Steve-o and all the other great RUclips aviators who take us along. I'm also glad you didn't edit this down. The hours of crossed arms in the cockpit is telling, in a sense. I was actually surprised though when I ran the distance, Drake Field to Colfax County is only 621 miles. You might even, on a good day, make that in the Skyhawk, but not in the comfort or speed of the King Air. Also, with an elevation of almost 8,400 feet, I'm sure the poor old Skyhawk just wouldn't appreciate it. :D Of course, I don't think 991 would make it 2:06, either! LOL I looked up AXX on AirNav, and it shows a 17% usage by Military aircraft. I wonder what that's all about. I think this is great, and I really hope that you can make a career out of aviation in some sense or another. I don't know what you're majoring in college for, but flying Part 91 wouldn't be a bad thing to make a living on! :D
Excellent video. Takeoffs and landings in King Air are what I'm studying closely right now so glad I could see both parts. I'm only flying a simulator but seeing what you guys do in the real thing is both inspiring and instructional. Thanks so much for creating the videos
Enjoyed it as always. Brought back a lot of great memories. Spent many hours as an active passenger in the right seat of our company's B200. Gained a lot of extremely valuable experience. My only regret was in not getting the multi rating so I could log the time.
All the aircraft I'm endorsed and rated on are in the shop for my school...I've been grounded for a month and am itching so bad to get back in the air and finish my commercial. Thanks for posting today lol
I tried to watch as much of your video's as I can. I love flying but don't fly myself. I didn't have the commitment to study and get my license. I ride motor bikes the closest thing on the ground to flying. King Air, my favorite aircraft as well. I was in a VP squadron while in the Navy. Was aircrew shortly got some stick time in P3. Then went into Air Force Reserve. Load Master on a C123 Fairchild. Got stick time on it as well. These were just to see what it was like to fly, not long on the stick at all. But I did get to stick a Cessna 150 once. It was a lot different to a heavy. I wasn't ready at first. Then I got to go back to the Navy. This time on a Submarine. They act like an airplane, but in the water. They bank in turns. They have to be trimmed. Controls are similar to aircraft. All operations are done by instruments. This I got a lot of time operating.
Put the check into the G1000 makes it go’s more smoothly and you don’t lose your place. Just FYI the Cockpit doors are to be open for take off and landing. The K200 is my favorite plane to hand fly as it is very well balanced on the controls. Tip also Com #1 should be used for ground and Clearance delivery in the air Com #2 why antenna placement. #1 antenna on the top of aircraft #2 antenna is on bottom you will get better reception. Leave props in climb RPM till at altitude don’t think it matters fly the plane single engine at 15,000 feet see the difference in climb rate. Nice Landing
Awesome video Josh. Even though it's technically single pilot aircraft, you did a pretty awesome job as FO that I'm sure made Justin's job a whole lot easier. Is this the same King Air that you were in when we just missed each other by an hour or so in Asheville, TN?
Justin was just being polite. Single pilot ops become clunky and awkwardly slow when you have a young pilot in the right seat to deal with. It’s much faster and easier just to rip right through it solo. There’s nothing helpful about having to babysit, other than someone to talk to. But we’ve all been there and we owe it to help the next generation of pilots. ✌️
All of your videos are great. But this was really awesome, glad you didn't edit it!! Wasn't too long at all. It's always great to experience something new with flying. Thank you once again.
I love that song Believer by Imagine Dragons that you were listening to! When the music came on in your plane I thought it was my computer glitching on me but then you told us that the plane has a radio. Lol!
Justin, as a retired ATC guy I can tell you that, even though they don’t tell you, those controllers really appreciate your professionalism and preparedness. It makes everyone’s job much easier. And this was another great video.
yeah this make BS sense, they are doing a job they expect him to be professional, they dont give a shit how professional he is!
1littlelee everybody isn’t professional. Thus it’s an expectation you don’t always get. So, when you do get it, it’s appreciated.
@@1littlelee You obviously don't know much about what goes on behind the scenes in aviation. Suggest you visit an approach control or an ARTCC and ask the controllers how they feel.
Great flying fellas
Beautiful aircraft
This video is pretty much the textbook case for why "long" videos are awesome.
Rodger that!
Soooooo true
I absolutely agree
That was awesome thank you for not cutting it shorter
I like the way he verified the pressure differential by opening the side window!
Pilots never get bored flying the king air.
Thanks josh, you are very professional and safe in your flying.
Cheers from France.....
I love the 30min video!!! Keep up the good work!!
Flying an IFR plan at altitude is just a series of handoffs from ground to departure to Centers along the way to approach control to tower to ground.

A King Air with a King Ranch Interior. Savin' my pennies.
You got 5 million dollars in penny's?
Murgen Fruumin I wish
If I could get one with a Levi's interior, I would have to get it! :-)

Can you do more Kingair time please 350i or any others in the Kingair family
Yes, please Josh! If you ever do get a chance to fly a King Air 350, that would be an awesome video. As always a wonderful video, keep it up!

King Air is such the ideal aircraft in so many ways.
We charter one for family trips from time to time and it's all good.
You should do a flight to the Bahamas one day
Excellent teamwork in the cabin and clarity of video first class.
Appreciated the video format for this presentation. Thanks for sharing a different flight with us.
Totally enjoyed, thank you so much for sharing these adventures and experiences.
Grandfather flew a King air 200 for as long as I was alive. Love that aircraft and have fingers crossed to command my own soon

These longer videos are the best! Keep em coming!
Thank you for posting. So candid and genuine. Loved every minute.
An excellent video, showing how things SHOULD be done. Very good.
Thanks for the video Josh. This is a great example of how trained pilots can work together like a well oiled machine.

What a dream aircraft!! Twin turbines and an actual private cockpit. It must be uncannily smooth at those high altitudes.
Yes thank you felt like I was flying with y’all once again thank you
King Air aircraft are always nice to look at....Thanks..
As always your did a great job on the edits and the comms. Well done!
First timer here😀
Great video.
Was really happy to see y'all fly out of my home state.
A King Air with a full glass panel. Flying heaven.
Not current nor proficient, probably never will be unless I hit MegaMillions or Powerball, but I most certainly do enjoy flying with you, and others like Chops, Jerry W, Steve-o and all the other great RUclips aviators who take us along.
I'm also glad you didn't edit this down. The hours of crossed arms in the cockpit is telling, in a sense.

glad to see a familiar cockpit. The kingair I fly has touch screen proline fusion . Those avionics are SWEET!
Really enjoyed the longer video with all the radio work! Pretty awesome you got to do this flight in a King Air, thanks for sharing!
Very enjoyable ride along. Glad you kept it long.
Thanks for bringing us along. Great flight.
Enjoyed it as always. Brought back a lot of great memories. Spent many hours as an active passenger in the right seat of our company's B200. Gained a lot of extremely valuable experience. My only regret was in not getting the multi rating so I could log the time.
All the aircraft I'm endorsed and rated on are in the shop for my school...I've been grounded for a month and am itching so bad to get back in the air and finish my commercial. Thanks for posting today lol
Great video. They just keep getting better. I really like the King Air.
Hi Josh love the video of you and Justin in the King Air 200!!! My late uncle by marriage had a King Air F90 !!!Loved flying in the King Air!!!!!
@ the 18:00 minute mark when unforgettable came on Lol. My Favorite part of this video.
My Pvt student son and I watched this together. Plenty of subject matter to work with!
I tried to watch as much of your video's as I can. I love flying but don't fly myself. I didn't have the commitment to study and get my license.

Tip also Com #1 should be used for ground and Clearance delivery in the air Com #2 why antenna placement. #1 antenna on the top of aircraft #2 antenna is on bottom you will get better reception. Leave props in climb RPM till at altitude don’t think it matters fly the plane single engine at 15,000 feet see the difference in climb rate. Nice Landing
Great flight nice plane and well documented thanks and stay safe cheers Paul
Awesome video Josh. Even though it's technically single pilot aircraft, you did a pretty awesome job as FO that I'm sure made Justin's job a whole lot easier. Is this the same King Air that you were in when we just missed each other by an hour or so in Asheville, TN?
Critical Angle yes sir, it is! Same bird, different flight. And yeah, Justin did say it helps to have another pilot up there. Loads of fun.

Great video; longer format definitely better. Not a pilot so learned a ton from this verbal checklist and the pilot banter. Thanks.
The newer, longer videos are much better Josh! Thank you! Keep up the good work.
Great flight. I would suggest you perform the clearing checklist AFTER you've cleared the runway. Thanks.
