    They say that a good landing is one you walk away from (and that's true, lol.) But this was a smooooth landing. almost NO camera shake when he hits the ground.

    It was fun to watch this video! I'm typed in the CL65 and made my last landing in it at PSP. "J" in the tower was having a good day with you, probably on his second cup of Starbucks, lol! A note to those new to the airport is that you may find winds changing by the minute and altitude. The airport sits right at the edge of terrain influences and can be blowing +10kts opposite directions along the lengths. I've flown three airline types there with one flight having three people barf on departure before hitting 10,000' heading for Banning pass and LAX,. My the last flight was a night arrival from SFO getting jarred in moderate turbulence from 12,000' to just crossing the fence before landing. I had one more trip scheduled flying the CRJ but called it off due to the cheers and applause of some very apprehensive but happy to be on the ground peeps!
    Thanks for sharing!

      Sounds like San Carlos, CA. I was on short final there in about a 12 knot crosswind (really almost a quartering headwind sort of going back and forth) when I got into a wind shadow from a tall building near the end of the runway. The plane started dropping quickly. A quick power up and then a plop onto the runway. All this with my wife screaming in my headset. Fly the plane first, listen to wife screaming second.

    Can’t count the times I’ve landed at PSP. Have friends who work at the air museum there plus the planes of fame museum at CNO occasionally supported them by flying in some airplanes for events. I also knew Bob Pond who started the museum at PSP. One thing……it can be a real rough ride coming through the Banning pass west of the city.

      I had a first officer learn first hand why I don't release the shoulder straps unless absolutely necessary during flight by taking a pretty good beating departing PSP. towards the pass. Another saw the light with a crossing wake encounter up in the flight levels. Thankfully, both were hard headed and stayed in the game fling, lol!

      @@TheChallengerPilot ...and my winter house is at the lower right at 3:40. I am with the great unwashed middle class of Del Webb Sun City, Palm Desert. Ideally, it's preferable to have a house south of highway 111 and I'm not even south south of I-10. Oh, well, still a beautiful place to spend the winter for this native SoCal boy.
      My ex-SIL has her winter house (or, more correctly, my brother's former winter house) near PS airport but surprisingly no noise at all. I just heard a jet right now but it wasn't loud and the noise lasted about five seconds. Doesn't happen often.
      I'm surprised there was no discussion of flying directly over Bermuda Dunes airport, which handles a fair amount of private jet traffic. It's dead ahead at around the 3:00 minute mark but difficult to make out as it is a single runway hard against the freeway (to the south, or left), separated only by Country Club Drive.
      Thanks for the video, it was fun seeing my (current) world from above.

    Of the many dozens of times I've been in PSP, this is the first time seeing it from the approach angle. The place is just amazing. I've only departed PSP one time to the north during a thunderstorm so I wasn't able to see much but after landing in IND, I saw news footage of many flooded area's including the golf course and the wash turned into a raging river which occurred after we departed PSP. As for the airport, I love the layout and the courtyard where a person can relax prior to flights.

    Mt. San Jacito (10,835 ft) is the tallest mountain there at the north end of the San Jacinto Range -- I love this so much I can't tell you. I've driven a semitruck into the LA area via i10, i15, i5, and most of the time it is very demanding... second by second demanding your attention, and of course law enforcement always a potential problem... what else can I think of? Well, I guess for both of us 40 mph+ wind and sandy dust blowing through Banning Pass on a 53' long x 14' tall trailer, so I would much rather have this view and this calm and discomfort.
    Looks like much fun.
    But I know you guys have ifr and turbulence and night and air traffic congestion of your own, not to mention your precious cargo. Anyway I did enjoy this. Stay safe everyone.

    • @jcolbyt82
      @jcolbyt82 16 дней назад +5

      Are you serious??? It’s annoying? Just when I think I have seen it all I see a comment like this. They are flying a damn airplane, or to be specific about it, they are coming in on an approach to land the said damn airplane. They have to constantly change autopilot settings, enter in airport information, started up the apu, change radio frequencies, run checklists which require certain things to be turned on or off. , etc.. A lot of pumps and other equipment that aren’t needed in cruise flight have to be enabled when preparing to land (or vice versa). When an airplane is coming in to land it requires lots of control inputs and changes to dials and switches. The average airplane has hundreds of switches and knobs. They aren’t there just to look at. They have a purpose and lots of those knobs and switches have to be turned or flipped during the flight. It’s not like slowing your car down to a stop. If it’s annoying to you then why don’t you fly on a plane where the pilots refrain from annoying you and don’t fidget with the controls at all. You won’t like the outcome.
