    Always been a life long dream to get my pilots license now that I’m 35, a Marine Corps Veteran, a father, husband, and 100% service connected disability. I am not able to afford this dream. The GI Bill will not cover private pilots license but it will cover all ratings afterwards. So being able to watch your channel and other flying channels helps scratch the never ending itch of wanting to fly and pilot an aircraft. Keep up the hard work!

I appreciate your service and the videos you take the time to do on the You Tube. Why I'm commenting is the haters and jealous crap I'm reading on the comments ect ect. You know I didn't choose to go into flying as a younger guy. I am 51 now. But what it is I do is manufacture plastic interior components for every boeing a/c that is in service, and all airlines. Your level of professionalism on the videos only reminds me of my passion for what it is I do. Maybe if people here with the crap comments could put a little more time in their everyday activities the world would be a better place overall!!!! Thank you again. Keep at it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We regularly flew our clients over from London Farnborough to the company’s own runway village of Kinnarp in Sweden. Lovely handling aircraft, with a fabulous rate of climb and ground breaking tech back then. We are so much more restricted in the the European airspace than you guys enjoy in the states, take care and keep these great flights coming 🇬🇧

      If he can afford to own his own private jet, he can afford a Porsche . He does own a medical supply business, and with this coved-19 pandemic he probably stayed very busy. He like everyone works for a living and why shouldn’t he enjoy the fruits of his labor. Besides he has good tastes in cars. Gregg glad you got your plane fixed. Good repair service that just didn’t start hanging parts on the airplane when it was just a connection. That shows just how critical something like just a connector can be. Think of just how many connections are involved in a aircraft like his premier jet. Well your back to flying once again.

    Amazing the list of YT pilots whom I also follow: Baron Pilot (talked to him quite a while at Sun 'n' Fun), 310 Pilot (fellow Chicago controller--he at C90, me at ZAU), Trent Palmer, and others with whom I'm familiar.
    All those ZAU sectors you flew through are ones I worked back in t he day. I have a bad habit of trying to recognize controller voices until I come to the realization that I've been gone for 22+ years, and none of the controllers I hear were even at the facility when I left. I've mentioned before how toward the end of my career I would sometimes have a D-side (controller next to the radar who manages the strips) who hadn't even been born when I hired it (52 years ago). So, yeah, I'm old.
    I hear some controllers using questionable "separation" techniques and it bothers me because I know how invalid they are. A 240 kt "restriction" at FL400 accomplishes nothing. You are probably at or below that KIAS at that altitude anyway. That's a partial reason why I've never been one of the "you were above 250 below 100" trolls. And speaking of trolls, I love your occasional references to someone actually being clear of the runway.
    The one that asked if you could be at altitude "in three minutes or less" was using the leader line on your datablock to project where you would be in 2, 4, or 8 minutes. The problem is, that leader line is based on the previous 7 hits on the digitized radar, and is a predicted average based on those hits. There is no procedure in the ATP (our ops manual) that provides for that kind of "clearance".
    I virtually never used leader lines, partly because of the above, but mostly because I'm an old broad band and shrimp boat controller and had a different skillset than the youngsters that "invented" the "be xxx by yyy" technique. It's a crutch, and a weak crutch at that.
    I always enjoy the "old home week" aspect to your trips through ZAU or ZJX (I'm even more outdated with the ZJX staff, as I left there in '73).
    Have you ever hooked up with "Mover" (C.W. Lemoine, another Viper driver on YT)?

Knowing that you want to get somewhere but turn it around for any kind of safety concern like you did and like Steveo did with the TBM that had issues just drives home the discipline and constraint characteristics needed that go along with the flying skills for piloting aircraft.

    Hey Greg, love your videos and missed them during your "hiatus", but I'm concerned at 00:26 your car is parked diagonally instead of perpendicular at the entrance to the hangar. I will be scrutinizing Indiana state law to see if this constitutes an infraction and if so, I will have no choice but to file a report with the Indiana Transportation Department. You do have a few days to mull this over as my Mom only lets me out of the basement and drives me to town on Fridays.

      @@bp968 You file a flight plan for ATC for every IFR flight. Check out skyvector and show the high altitude airways. Basically you have all the NAVAIDS and their interconnections form a net of airways. When filing an IFR flight plan, you basically need to fly those airways. That obviously means you're not going in a straight line from A to B, just like in your car, you need to drive on roads and can't drive the direct connection. That on the other hand means, you're doing some extra distance compared to the straight connection. Well, for planes, it would obviously be possible to fly the direct connection which for cars isn't really the case. Hence, if you're lucky and there is not much air traffic, ATC will in fact allow you to disregard the airways you filed and fly direct to a waypoint. In this case, he was allowed to go direct to destination skipping all the waypoints from his current position to the destination.

      @@foxtrotromeo4876 thanks that was well explained! I ended my flight training at about 16 hours flight time and hadn't soloed yet and usually we flew in mostly uncontrolled airspace so most of my experience with controlled airspace was with my CFI on the radio or me watching RUclips videos.. or me ignoring ATC and flying GPS direct in flight sims ;)

      Intermittent faults who seem to laying in the wires and/or connectors are hard to find and in that case should be clear addressed. You might be happy not to paying for expensive parts at the moment, but for some reason I don’t think you like to have it fails midair on a later flight. Also it is to question why you didn’t get the proper alert on the first fault. I have seen a lot shaken off wires in my job, one moment everything was working the next it fall off. The difference it was not on a essential part of a airplane.

    • @DougHanchard
      @DougHanchard 3 года назад +3

      Based on what Greg has conveyed in this video and how he detected the squawk yesterday, the stab trim was not an intermittent fault.
      Oxidization and connection faults can be intermittent and usually, have repetitive characteristics (off then on the off again, etc).
      AME techs followed best practices by swapping out known good and bad components, checking current fault limits, etc. The connectors, wiring and affected components are thoroughly checked and verified throughout the repair procedure.
      If it was an intermittent problem, it would have been found and further repairs carried out. It really comes down to the level of detail carried out during testing and verification of performance specs.
      Certified aircraft parts and repair procedures are significantly more thorough and require attention to detail than most other repair professions. Repairing aircraft is not just a parts swapping job. These guys must find out why the failure occurred, detail repair and sign the aircraft log recording findings and most importantly, certify repairs , as required by FAA regulations.
      It's why reputable MROs are in high demand and frequently booked for weeks. Greg was fortunate and no doubt, very happy, to have the fault detected and repaired at his home airport.

      Doug Hanchard - I know and hope that it’s perfect fixed. But over my courier I also have seen too many failed “quick” fixes. The worst where when someone used the wrong crimping tools. You will only see it when you take the connections apart. But some of them only on time assembling. The second hard to find issue was vibration damage. We have swapped complete wire harnesses and cut them apart to find cause and permanent solutions to it. I follow P1D because of it’s open and professional way to address things. Just wanted to address - if you don’t have full understanding why it was breaking, then be aware that can happen anytime again without warning to you.

    This kinda stuff freaks me out, especially when it has to do with flight controls. Essentially, he said things were disconnected and reconnected, then it started working again... Which means the actual cause of the problem hasn't been found or resolved. I wouldn't be satisfied with that, but I'm just a passenger.
