    I enjoy always seeing the full picture and transparency when mistakes are made. It makes the story that much more authentic and relatable to how flying really is. I can't wait for more!

    The ending brought tears to my eyes. Wasn't expecting that. Glad you made it through your check ride. How often do you need to fly on floats to keep proficient? Can you rent a float plane in Texas to stay current?

    Bittersweet. This series was really awesome but I’m sad to see that it’s over. Congratulations on your seaplane rating it’s definitely on my bucket list. Can’t wait for the next video. Thanks for creating this awesome content. This is the best RUclips channel ever!

      Watch out they still have a MAGA mindset thinking they're out of the FAA's long arm up there. No surprise given the abysmal accident/incident rate.

    Unbelievable Josh. You talk about being Speechless while flying with Chris the first time through Denali. I'm speechless everytime I watch your videos. Great job sir, truly inspiring.

    Hi Josh, greetings from Argentina. The footage of your videos are simply outsanding. I guess you have a natural eye matched to the camera and exceptional edditing skills. I can´t think about how much time consuming it is. Those views reminds me of our landscapes from the SW of our country nearby the Andes mountains: the lakes, the trees the rivers and of course the mountains them selves.
    Congrats to your reasent new addition on your list of licenses. Cheers from NE Patagonia to you and Chelsea and my best wishes to both in this 2022. Blue skys!

    Brilliant promotion idea?!? Well I don't know if it is or not LOL. I watched this video shortly after watching Steve (Flight Chops) do the ocean crossing in a new Diamond DA62. I'm a big fan of Josh, Steve and Diamond! I think Diamond could/will be the direction light aircraft takes in the mid-future range, with jet_A/diesel. (I didn't intend that discussion to be here 8) I think the DA62, as a light twin, is a brilliant design at every level, and back!! I also think Josh does an awesome job with aviation videos! He touches on every form of light piston aircraft available, and is everything we could hope for as an ambassador for safety. As a product promotion, I would love to see Diamond give him a DA62, painted in the "Aviation 101 logo and color", to promote Diamond Aircraft, Aviation in the USA and Safety!! I have no idea what that would look like on paper, but I sure like the idea!! Just a thought.. JMHO.. 8) --gary

    Josh, Great job on the video. Congrats to all of you on passing the check ride. Always been a big Hobo Jim fan myself. It was get that you got to see him preform live. Seems like a great group of people and a great trip. I have only met Chris and he is a stand up guy. Good luck on everything you have coming up.

    So you should have a 30 foot rope small maybe 150 lb test maybe more tied to aircraft that way you can jump with lead and drag the aircraft back in just a tip. 👍

    You're going to have to defend CAR (antique) aircraft to the DPE at this establishment since Don Lee will milk you if you can't.
