RAIN and SNOW, Flying the Bombardier Challenger 300
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 янв 2020
- Flying the Bombardier Challenger 300 private jet to Salina, Kansas on Thanksgiving day. As corporate pilots we sometimes have to fly on the holidays. During this flight we fly in the weather on both legs, encountering rain and snow and have to do an IFR approach for both landings. The ATC conversations are included with the takeoff and landings.

being in the soup then seeing the blue sky that's always nice
I can't wait to fly for hire, your job looks like so much fun Captain. Passed my Instrument Written today so I'm getting there!
Congratulations, Mason! 👍👍🍻
Congratulations man. You rock. Keep going as long as you can.
Great video again. I'm from Kansas City but in the mid 70's i went to military school in Salina. From the school I could watch TWA's L1011's doing touch and go's.
Working on Thanksgiving immediately resonated with me. I worked for a company at which Thanksgiving was our busiest day, long ago, but it helped me to realize that every day with my family was precious. But the world doesn't stop; the world needs things every day and it's good to be able to help.
Heh, my dad did ramp work for DAL in MEM for years too. Also played a big role in me becoming a pilot.
Took my first lesson with the CAP as a 14 year cadet in April 1968 at Wilson Field. Flew a CAP L-16A from Wilson to KMEM 1-4-73 about 3 days before Wilson closed for good. Had many happy memories made there. My father kept a BT-13 there for a short time after the war. Glad to know you are an ex Memphian.
I remember riding bikes with a friend out to KSYR to watch planes at around 13 years old, and being invited for a flight around the area in a v-tail bonanza by a complete stranger. Of course we said yes! Turns out he was a local police officer. Quite an unexpected thrill.
Me and a friend of mine had the same experience at Midway airport. A pilot took us up for a flight in a small Cessna. First we had to get a form signed by our parents. I will never forget the experience.
"You love me too much". that was hilarious! Also loved your intro to flying story Jim. Thanks for another great video!
Love watching you and Jeff together. Granted, his voice is a bit different than Mike’s lol! A big thank you to Jeff for letting us in. I really enjoy his style and the two of you together. I think many would like to see more of your beautiful family and learn more about Jeff as well. Safe skies Jim and thanks for sharing !
My first commercial flight was at age 12 in a PSA Electrajet to Disneyland in Anaheim. I was hooked.
Its pretty cool to see the differences in style and flow when you fly the Challenger as opposed to the Citations or Caravan
Another wonderful flight.
Throughout my piloting career I always managed somehow to get home for only one holiday a year, Christmas. I was gone for every other holiday, birthdays, anniversary’s, and so on. All part of being a corporate pilot.
Interesting to hear your entry into piloting. Mine came on my tenth birthday. Yes I was ten when I started flying. Back in the day, many moons ago, Cessna had a deal, five bucks for and introductory flight. Got all sorts of things. A good introduction briefing, walk around, logbook, and certificate, as well as a half hour of flight time to put in my new logbook. I now have over 22k in my logbook and retired. How time flies.
Such a beautiful airplane. Thanks for sharing Jim!
I love watching Jeff hand fly. That landing in Salina was spot on. Captain, my experience with airplanes as a kid were EXACTLY like yours. I rode my bike to the local airport (KFDK), and eventually went flying with a local pilot who took me for lunch in his Piper and brought me back... all this when such a thing was still possible. Really miss those days.
Great story about your father. Been watching your videos for a while. My dad worked for Delta also and was everything from ticket agent to Cargo. (LAX) Thanks for sharing and keep up the great flying!
Great CRM! Also great to see some skilled hand-flying. Always enjoy your videos, Jim!
My first flight as a child was on a Constellation out of Idelwild. I think it was Eastern Airlines.
I flew an arrow for an agricultural company out of Salina this summer! It was great to see AVFlight and Salina’s massive runway again:)
Jeff,,, I enjoy your style of piloting.... Very short concise requests... Thanks for allowing the videos...
Great video Captain!! Gotta say thank you for sharing this corporate aviation world! I've always had my head in the airlines, and I just started flying corporate this year, King Air, loving it!!!! Blue skies and tailwinds!
First time for me seeing you in the right seat, but all is well!.. Great flight, thanks both!
Nice crew interaction
New Sub.It has taken me a few weeks but I have binge watched all of them. Really enjoy your videos. Helps with my fear of flying.
Great video. Thanks Captain.
Wonderful flight capt moonbeam thxs
I live in Oakland and I've never heard of Wilson, just saw how close it is to me. I want to fly corporate and love your videos, keep up the good work.
thanks.
Your videos are always so entertaining!
Great to see Jeff again. I know how it is having to work Holidays my wife has worked many of them even Christmas day. I would love to talk to you some time my Dad was raised in Memphis I was born in Memphis. My Dad went to Messick High School lived either on or off of central ave. I have relatives all around the Memphis area. Thanks for taking us with you and Jeff. Sorry I missed your live stream we were at my parents house. Stay safe. Have a great day!!!
Great vid Captain.
Interesting to see a different plane... that's quite a cockpit. I remember Jeff from another video I think.
Glad you found the IHOP! Plenty of IFR. Great video Jim. :)
Great Video. Thanks for Sharing
Excellent video.
Thanks Cap!
Amazing House!
I love that plane!
The challenger is awesome!
Thanks Jim, Very enjoyable!
I still think you should market those glasses you wear...very cool..Jim/C
Great experiencia e
i can tell, Jeff is a good man.
Great flight guys many thanks sure is a nice plane,do you prefer the XL or this? cheers Paul
Love that Challenger cockpit! Very nice. Must be a joy to fly, I'd imagine, too.
Not too bad of a way to spend Thanksgiving, in my opinion. It beats factory or construction work, or truck driving, I'll tell ya that much! 😁 Better to be home with family, but things could be worse. Thanks for sharing, Jim! 👍🍻
We have a very small airport in my county. Every year they give short airplane rides to kids of our county. They get 30 - 50 kids each year to go flying.
We will keep the lights on for you!!
Give that beautiful little girl some video time Jim...this is another great video. Love theChallenger.
The 350 is one sexy aircraft super quite !!! Great video sir
Haha it’s funny to hear you talk about Pueblo, CO. That is my home town. At one time in the late 80s my dad was the shift Captain at the Pueblo airport ARFF/ fire station. We actually had a couple of Thanksgivings at that station when he was working.
2 nd time watching your videos. Good on you captain. Living the dream and thanks to Citation Max.
Great Video
Boy he was working that yolk coming in to Salina
Even though the Bombardier is no Cessna, it's still an entertaining Flying Vlog or "FLOG"
Good job man, I mean, GREAT job Jim!
Thanks, Time to go back to flogging the challenger.
Excellent video, maybe one day we won't find
Best regards for this nice team!
Thanks Daniel.
Another great video Captain. In regards to the wind speed, do you need to be concerned when the tail ends approach the Not to Exceed speed or is that even a consideration? Thanks in advance.
Jim, Just another day at the office making some 🛩💰on 🦃day! Hope your TG was a good one when you returned home!
Hello Captain...do you have a preference of the different jet aircraft you fly?...Challenger or Citation?...just curious. Keep up these wonderful videos.
Hi Jim👋
For a reason you always put an smile in my face 😉 nice to seeing you again.. any plans to Ocean Reef?__ keep me post thanks...
After flying the challenger, IHope meal?! Thats a big contrast! Lol.
Good stuff as usual! If you ever make it up here to Oshkosh hit me up...
My first airplane was in a DC-6 in 1964. Eastern air shuttle, Newark to Boston. Fare was about $17.
The captain seemend to be very stressed on final. And your Pommes Frittes did not look very crunchy. But the glass-cockpit looked wonderful.
Geez, on takeoff, the PF's hands were going everywhere all at once!! I thought that the Challenger 300 was a TWO pilot aeroplane. Someone should tell Geoff/Jeff.
Great video! hope to fly the Challenger 300 too one day :D
Thanks Captmoonbeam & Jeff
Your granddaughter at the beginning of the video she is precious you have a neat family
She’s anoying
Capt, what's your vision correction/eye glass solution for near (EFB and cockpit displays) and far/out the window? Progressives? Reading glasses? Bifocals?
Great looking plane, thanks for posting. Your left seater flew both legs?
Hey, I'm proud to say that we both have the same cooker. Look behind the control panel (one day) it's almost as complicated as that in the Challenger. 🙄
favorite plane to fly on xplane 11!
Excellent video again. Do you A Check the jet yourself, or is this just a PPL check so to speak ?
12:15 That was funny.
"you love me too much" : well, it happens all the time with student pilots, corporate pilots, airline pilots. The good thing is that this mistake is fairly harmless.
I was surprised at the amount of yoke movement for the light amount of winds while on short final and flare. Is that plane more of a handful to fly than your Citation?
You should include your startups and shutdowns.
Man 5L is a cool callsign
Ouch, that was a sloppy approach into Salina. Wayyy below GP. Full deflection there. We all have those days. Don’t be afraid to speak up
Was the Capt. always a private/business pilot or did you do airline work?
Btw, great work and always entertaining.
Any particular reason for you not flying one of the legs Jim? Are you typed in the 300? Anyway you’re putting out some really nice videos. Enjoying from across the Atlantic
Great video, though I am a fan of the Cessna plane videos.
How many days would you say you are working a month? Nights away from home? Block?
Sorry you had to fly on Thanksgiving! I hope you at least made time and a half or something!
Hey captain! How're you ? I hope u fine! Awesome videos like usual!
Thanks. Doing great. I'm sitting in Homestead Florida waiting to fly back home.
What is the rotation speed on the challenger 300?
What is the etops limit time for your challenger 300 aircraft?
That was funny, I’ve never ever left it on previous freq!? Lol 😳😳😳 one of the worst was a couple of times I left the switch on PA after making announcement to FAs and Pax that we were cleared for T/O.....they heard my talking w tower after T/O....FA called me....embarrassed!
👨✈️👨✈️👨✈️👨✈️😳😳😳🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Are you going to get certified on that Learjet?
boy did the pilot look nervous on takeoff!!!
When will you get your Challenger 300 type rating?
Are you going to your PIC rating in the Challenger?
Question for toy Captain, will you or are you already typed for the challenger?
Hi Captain, Why do clouds form at two levels. From images is this clear airspace free from icing.
Thank you
P.S In Australia we don't celebrate thanksgiving could you expand.
The air is not consistent with respect to the amount of moisture it has at different points. Generally, any time the temperature and dew point converge, you will find cloud, and where there is significant divergence, you will find a clear layer. You can learn more about this by searching for articles on “skew-t” charts. These are a tool meteorologists and pilots use to predict where cloud layers will be. Most of the time, interstitial layers will be free of ice; in rare cases there is very fine precipitation which you can easily see through but which will cause ice. Thanksgiving is a US holiday which has been billed as a tradition from some of the very first European colonists. The story is that the natives found these colonists nearly starving and provided enough food to last the winter. For generations this has been celebrated as a time to count one’s blessings. The sad truth of that first encounter is that the colonists actually killed a large number of the natives, they were quite proud of doing so and wrote about it pretty extensively. The story was sanitized years later and a large effort was made to popularize the myth. The genuine thought of being thankful for all the many good things in our lives and celebrating the people we share it with is a good thing and it’s a very important holiday for many of us, probably more important than Christmas. We just need to separate that good idea from the horrible lie that started the tradition.
as a new instr. student was wondering how often you get in holds?
Not very often. Maybe once or twice a year. Normally you'll get a short delaying vector or speed reduction before you get a hold. It also depends on the area your flying in. You're much more likely to get a hold flying into the northeast corridor during weather.
Capt Moonbeam, how come you didn't get to fly a leg on that trip, or did I miss something, thanks for the vid
I do fly but, unfortunately you don't see all the flights we do
What are those Caution messages?
Can Challenger be flown single pilot or strictly a two man crew? It has a nice spacious cockpit.
2 man crew only
Hi! Are you not allowed to be pilot flying on the right seat? Greetings from Colombia.
Interesting to see the speed tape in Mach. Does that automatically change at some point, or is it pilot preference?
I think you have a button that can change it over if you want. I think it also will automatically change over somewhere around FL280 or so.
You can switch it manually, or, it switches automatically as a function of altitude in the climb as well as the descent.
lmao he asked for a wind check
When I worked for Comair I remember deicing in the freezing cold, my face and hair would get soaked in glycol. It would get in my mouth, it has a sweet taste. Fun times.
The Cookster LOL! I have the same memories ! You weren’t at BNA were you ?
@@randyporter3491 Nope, EVV
@@randyporter3491 I remember this flight attendant got a little glycol in her eyes, she said she could not do the flight, I think she went to get medically checked out but I'm not sure. I think she did it just to get out work for the day.
The Cookster I agree ! Like you, if I had used that, I would have been out four months a year !
Those escape hatches don’t seal when new!
Nice, I want one. just went down and bought another lottery ticket LOL
That awkward moment you find a video of someone who was also at KSLN..
