A little bit of weather in West Palm Beach and Fort Lauderdale and gusty winds on landing.
I discuss skydiving, my favorite sports teams and respond to some comments on the previous Fort Lauderdale video:
• Come fly with and get ...
Please leave me a comment and ask any questions you'd like about the Citation or aviation in general. I'll be happy to answer!

When I got my instrument ticket in 2001 we were using steam gauges, paper charts, no GPS and no autopilot. Any deviation from the plan was a huge deal especially in a busy environment. "Direct enter enter" sure is nice. Good video for my student pilot daughter who will be training in this new technical environment.
Same here! I got my instrument in 2003 in my Arrow. 6-pack and no GPS at the time. I'm very thankful that I learned on the 6 pack. I think it made me (and anyone who learned on them) a better pilot for when the fancy avionics break!
Don't get me wrong though, GPS, ADSB and all of the fancy avionics that are out there now have made flying much safer, and your situational awareness is outstanding!
Thank you for posting your route, I like to fly your route in FS. My favorite aircraft in FS is the Citation Longitude. Can't wait until the next video!!!
The routes on all of my flights should at least be posted at the top of the walkaround, however I've decided to start including pictures of the routing too. A buddy of mine just got hired by NetJets and will be flying Longitudes soon! I'm a bit jealous! Thank you for watching!
Back in March had an opportunity to take an airboat ride in the Everglades. On our trip out to meet airboat tour operators we went past the Panters Stadium. I didn't realize how far out to edge of the Glades was so much development. Our trip into the was spectacular and was in awe of this eco system. Great flying content!
Yes, they've basically run out of land to build on in Broward County! It's sad, but I'm glad that whole area/ecosystem is protected!
Thanks for your continued efforts to share your flying with us. You have a beautiful jet and you fly it very professionally, setting a great example for aspiring pilots and pilots working their way up through their ratings! Happy Fathers Day!
Thank you for the kind comments and I appreciate you watching. I wish this was my beautiful jet! I'm just lucky enough to be able to fly it! I'm glad I get to share the experiences with everyone. I'm learning a lot as I trudge through video editing!
Lovely flight. Totally enjoyed your company!!
I love that you respond to everyone. Thanks for the amazing video!
I try to at least. The fact that people that "just like airplanes" all the way to 747 pilots find and watch my videos is crazy.
There are so many good RUclips creators on here that everyone can learn something new from! I appreciate you watching!
Another great job. I love the landmark tags.
Thank you! I think it adds a nice touch when I point things out, and people seem to like the tags just pointing out landmarks. I appreciate you watching!
I LOVE THE BEAVER ON FLOATS SINCE I FLEW I ALASKA FOR SEVERAL YEARS , ALSO LIKE THE ASTRA SPX AND THE CESSNA X AND FLYING THE CHALLENGER 350.
My father flew Beavers, Birddogs and Hueys while he was in the military. He always said he loved that plane. I think his first paying job was a float plane in New Jersey!
Sounds like you fly a variety of planes. How does Alaska flying different for states flying?
Life long Miami Dolphin Fan! From New York.
That has to be a little brutal. Do you ever go to the games up there? I'm a little concerned we haven't beaten anyone with a winning record so far!
Games are fine in Southern N.Y. Buffalo is pretty bad. Never been nor do I want to.@@AccidentalAviator
@@easternairlines727 We actually went to the Dolphins vs Bills playoff game last year and I can honestly say I was pleasantly surprised with the crowd there. I was the lone Dolphin fan in my area, but I was there with 3 Buffalo fans... and I'm very careful when I'm cheering :p We had a great time.
Thanks for the landmarks. My only time in Wilmington was to march in the Azalea Festival over 50 years ago.
Someone else commented on those also. I realized that I was calling places out and nobody knew what I was talking about in some videos, so I went a little overboard in Wilmington :-)
Thanks for being one of the few RUclipsrs I’ve found who shows about everything that goes into corporate aviation!
I've been trying to incorporate different bits and pieces into each video. I hope to do some that include my planning for trips as well. I'm headed to California in a few weeks and that will be an interesting flight to plan! Hoping to record some too.
Returned to flying in March after 20yrs out of currency. It’s great to watch another NC pilot. Currently flying out of KIPJ and need to plan a trip to KILM to get some cc hours as I work toward IFR. Thanks for the videos!
Why were you out of flying? I was out for about 7-9 years. I call those my "young and dumb" years :-)
@@AccidentalAviator I had a family and bought a house and just couldn’t afford to to keep flying. Kids are grown mostly and just decided it was time to get back to it. One of those things you look back on and see all the different ways you could have made it happen. Now, I have 5 years till I can retire from law enforcement and I plan during these years to obtain at least my CFI so I can live out my dream of being a paid pilot. Something I have always wanted to do but just let life and choices delay it.
@@bryankale5232 I'm glad you're back in aviation now! Hopefully you can get through your instructors rating quickly! Please keep me up to date on how you're progressing!
@@AccidentalAviator thank you and I am glad. To be back in the air. It’s always amazing to be in the air. I will keep you updated.
Not in the aviation industry I just love it as a spectator and occasional passenger. I live directly in the flight path of runway 36 center of CVG about 4 miles from threshold with gear down , most people would complain but I love it.
Welcome to the channel! I've been around aviation for the greater part of my life and I can still pull up a chair and just watch airplanes takeoff and land. It's very relaxing to me!
Sporadic FS 2020 simmer here. I fly the Cessna 172 mostly, but I have flown the Citation a few times. I really should spend more time and learn the ropes of planning/completing a flight. I like the way you explain things as you fly. It really helps people like me grasp a better understanding of the big picture. Blue skies!
I'm hoping to do a few videos on how I plan for trips before I actually fly them. I just haven't settled on how I want to do this. So, look for those coming soon!
@@AccidentalAviator I have used SimBrief before and actually just looked at some flights from KILM to KFLL.
@@kevinaltizer I had never heard of them until now. Interesting idea and it looks pretty cool!
I think most Part 91 general aviation pilots use something like ForeFlight, which is what I use. We have a ForeFlight Business subscription with the CJ3+ Performance numbers added on. This gives pretty darn accurate consumptions and we have the ability to the takeoff and landing performance numbers in the software as well.
I'm planning to do a few videos about my pre-flight planning using these tools.
Favorite airplane??? My first airplane... in 1974, my Dad (WWII & Korea USMC fighter pilot) and I bought a '56TC Turbo Baron. Probably the 'nicest' plane I flew was a CJ-2+. 1,000 hours in a 402 hauling the mail 'taught me how to fly,' notwithstanding 15 years of flight instructing. When the owner sold the CJ2, I retired from flying. I pulled up your email address from your channel, and sent you a PDF copy of my book, BROKEN CONTROLLER: an Air Traffic Controllers Story. Let me know if you receive it... sometimes big files get moved over to spam files.... Thanks for sharing your right seat.... Carl
I'm glad you mentioned it here cause I did accidentally delete it getting rid of a bunch of comment notifications. It looks interesting and I'll look into it a bit more tomorrow!
They don't make twin engine aircraft like they did back in the 50s and 60s. I bet that was a beauty of a plane! I think they renamed the CJ2+ to the M2 after a bit, and it's just a smaller version of this plane. We debated purchasing an M2 or a CJ3+ but ultimately wound up with the CJ3+ and I'm happy that was the choice that was made!
Great video! Thank you for taking the time to do these, you do an amazing job!
Thank you and I appreciate you watching!
Another nice flight!
Thank you! I always appreciate you watching!
Another great and informative video. Thanks.
Thank you and I appreciate you watching!
Thanks for the nice flight. Your a great pilot.
Thank you! I appreciate you watching!
Coming back to comment again after hearing the "skydiving" part of the video. I have not jumped. But my father, who is also a pilot, designs and builds parachutes here in Central FL for a living. He's been jumping for almost 50 years. He doesn't skydive as much anymore, but he's been in the industry for work for a long time.
Ah Ha! That explains being around Deland :-) If I could have gotten my group of friends to travel a bit, this is where we would have jumped. What company does/did your Dad work for?
@@AccidentalAviator He is the VP of performance designs. It’s about 5 minutes from DeLand airport. He doesn’t jump as much anymore but him and I do fly together frequently.
Really enjoy your videos 👍🏼
Glad you like them! Thank you for watching!
Great flight! Thanks for including the route (even today the preferred one on SkyVector), Good for you to make a mental note when you'r over Lndg-mass before takeoff, smart thinking. Camera's and sound are perfect and I do appreciate your top down views of the MFD/PFD II/GTC's. Yep, canceling the VNAV disengages the vertical part of the SID and keeps you steady on the lateral part. Thanks for sharing all of this with us.
The first time that Garmin-ism caught me was coming out of FXE headed to Tallahassee on a Departure Procedure that doesn't exist anymore, but it had a "at or below crossing restriction" at 10,000 feet (I believe) and ATC gave me a "Climb and Maintain 15 Thousand." The plane started levelling off at 10 so I kicked the autopilot off and hand flew it up to 15.
It took me a second to figure out what was happening, and now I know to look for it each time. That's something that wasn't taught in my Initial and really underscores why you need to understand everything the avionics are doing!
@@AccidentalAviator Yeah, good example (funny). Most of the times, ATC throws you off the SID or STAR, but you have to realize which part they alter. On the MFD of the G1000 you have a Disable VNAV soft key for these situations. For lateral cancellations you just switch to HDG or NAV (Direct), but you need to know this and is often not taught. I do agree; Avionics: Trust, but verify!
@@raccoonair Palm Beach Approach likes to give you a "descend and maintain 4000" long before the 5000 foot crossing restriction almost always. I wouldn't be surprised to see an amended arrival procedure come out in the near future.
@@AccidentalAviator Yeah, if the departures/arrivals into major airports change into higher routes, they will be forced to amend the procedures accordingly. Good thing though; I do believe in standardized departure/arrivals, ending in vectors or Direct via feeder routes to the IAF, where standardization continues through approach plates.
@@raccoonair It definitely makes it a lot easier to get in and out of congested airspace.
Great videos!
Thank you! I appreciate you watching!
Great video captain!!!! Thank you for making these videos!!!!
I'm glad I have the opportunity to! Thank you for watching!
About stories when I was doing my IR training i was doing my Runup checks and then i saw a G5 taxing behind a very slow C172. The guy in the G5 got mad and said on the ground frequence “tell the Cessna in front to give away JET FUEL IS EXPENSIVE”
That's funny! Where did you or are you doing your training out of?
Love your videos!
I appreciate you watching. I have a bunch of video recorded if I can ever find the time to edit it!
I appreciate you watching. I have a bunch of video recorded if I can ever find the time to edit it!
Excellent flight/vid. I bought my tickets for future ride a longs already ;) I bet you'd be a great teacher. Safe journeys.
Nice! I really should get off my butt and go get my Instructors License.
Great video as always. New IFR and working on commercial. We have PA32 6/260 . Went skydiving for 1st time this weekend and loved it! Wife bought that for me for my bday and upped my life insurance the same day....hmmm lol
PA32 are haulers! Does she have any other death defying adventures planned? :p
@@AccidentalAviator 29 year full time FF/EMT and trying get my commercial and CFI before retire so can do flight training. Wife and I would like to fly the east coast. I'm based at KBPK. I just enjoy flying different aircraft and being in the sky whenever possible. And yes, it has a 1495lb useful load, can haul a ton of stuff! Also I enjoy hearing how everyone brief's stuff and they way different pilots fly their planes. I always tell my guys to take a little bit from everyone and make it your own. Everyone does it differently and it drives me nuts to see people point it out. lol
@@firepilot109 Yes, you can learn something new from everyone. I'm hoping to do some videos on how I prepare for flights soon!
I never got my pilots licenses, ended up being a firefighter, however my favorite plane to jump out of is a casa 212. My most common flights to jump are in a pac 750
You're a smokejumper? That has to be some intense and exhilarating work! Those are definitely 2 cool planes!
Restarting my training after a decade and a half away from aviation. Hope to get through my instrument in September and then straight into the commercial and multi. Then will be looking for that first turbine gig.
Twin Comanche is probably my favorite airplane to fly but have a lot of time in the single as well - hope to end up with another one of those in the next year or two.
It's definitely the right tome to get into aviation. Pilots are in high demand! Keep me up to date on your progress!
Another great video! My favorite plane to fly is definitely the Cessna 172. Mostly because I’m about 4 hours into my flight training and it’s the ONLY plane I’ve flown so far!🤣😂. I look forward to flying anything and everything I get the chance to fly! I have been fascinated by planes and flying my whole life and am very blessed to be able to follow my passion, even if it’s just squeezing in lessons between my fairly busy schedule for right now. You talked me into getting the Flight Sim since I have every intention on continuing on to instrument once my PPC is complete. I’ve never been skydiving and have little interest. Keep up the great vids, and I look forward to the next one!!
MSFS or XPlane are perfect for instrument training. Honestly if you're just learning how to fly they help a lot too because you get a good idea of how all of the instruments interact with each other. Simple things like what happens to your airspeed and pitch attitude become clearer using a simulator.
The 172 is a great trainer and I look forward to hearing how you progress!
Does the plane have a glass cockpit or the older six-pack?
@@AccidentalAviator all six pack instruments. Which I think is good for me to learn on so I can really get a grasp on the basics before too much computer interaction (which I fully look forward to eventually). I’ll update my progress as you post new videos. I’m also planning on attending the CFCA open house next month. It should be interesting to check out the Cirrus fleet!😁
@@scottdeluca2973 I got my instrument in my plane and at the time it didn't even have a GPS. Dual VORs and an ADF and I actually had to shoot an ADF approach on my checkride. I love that you're learning on the traditional six pack. I personally believe this will make you a better and safer pilot!
@@AccidentalAviator better and safer is definitely the goal! I know most student pilots have a “quick as I can” mindset but I’m doing this for myself and my family and want to have the highest possible chance of successful longevity!🛩️
Really enjoy your videos and narrations of what you are doing along the way. Thanks so much for taking the time to make these so that we can ride along.
I appreciate you (and everyone else) coming along for the ride. It makes the editing time worth it!
I love your videos. I am just starting my PPL here in the UK (in my mid 50s!) and although I have a long path ahead of me, I see you and what I aspire to. Bloody expensive though!!
Yeah flying has become ridiculously expensive. It's almost sad. I'm glad you're getting the opportunity to do it though! I wonder how much getting your PPL differs in the UK than here?
@@AccidentalAviator We normally start with an introduction flihgt (basically to make sure you can handle being in a small aircraft) and shown basic controls. Then it's a case of going through all the lessons in the PPL bible, taking a medical, some written tests, solo flight, cross country and that's it. All being well (if you are still vaguely solvent) you are a pilot.
@@mattjolley761 Sounds very similar to what happens in the United States.
Great video. I love the CJ3+
Me too! But I guess that's obvious! It's such an easy plane to fly.
Hey, I posted comments on your page before, but I think that I saw you at Aero Center when I was leaving, just finished a flight with my instructor in the Piper PA28. I am still working on my Private and the school I am moved their planes to Aero. I do "practice" on MSFS and I tend to use a Beechcraft V35, but there are sometimes I get into a Diamond DA62 to fly a multi-engine prop. I tend to fly out of KILM, but sometimes I go to KSFO (where I grew up).
Next time introduce yourself! I'd love to meet you. The first plane I ever flew and soloed in was an Archer, and I currently own a Turbo Arrow which I hope to have back at Aero Center in a few months!
I'm headed out to Napa Valley in a few weeks and I'm hoping to to film that trip. Please keep me up to date on how you're doing, and if I can help you with anything, please let me know!
My shop is at the end of runway 24 in Wilmington . excellent video !
Nice! What kind of work do you do?
@@AccidentalAviator ILM small engine repair ! Lawnmower service and repair
@@HURRICANEWILMA That's great! I have to ask, why HurricaneWilma? I was in south Florida (Broward County) when Wilma came through. It was an odd hurricane because it strengthened over the everglades on the way too us! I remember walking outside in the eye!
@@AccidentalAviator I was on Marco Island for the Hurricane ! working with the collier county emergency management and the hurricane intercept research team !
@@HURRICANEWILMA Small World!
Really enjoy your content and appreciate the "point outs" . I mostly fly 737s in the sim but when I want to "enjoy the scenery" I hop in the SR22. You've got me wanting to try out some more of the business jets in the sim.
I'm amazed at the realism of computer simulators. My first foray into computer based sims was way back when Sub-Logic did them on the Apple 2!
I think the POI tags definitely help when you're not familiar with the area!
POI labels are cool!!
Thank you! I got annoyed at myself for pointing things out in videos realizing that most people watching the videos have no clue where these things are. The ones I put around Wilmington are just landmarks that everyone here would know! I'll definitely continue doing this in my videos.
Go Fins 🐬 !
YESS! We'll be down even more once the season starts!
Another great video man, keep it up. The speed reduction on the downwind is not always to keep you from flying a long downwind, instead they’re usually matching your speed to aircraft on final for sequencing purposes. 👍🏼 Happy Father’s Day as well, have a good one.
Thank you for that information! You can never learn too much about aviation / air traffic control. At one point in my younger years I considered being a controller and still occasionally play controller games.
@@AccidentalAviator you're welcome I totally agree about always learning, enjoy your Sunday.
Ft Lauderdale? If you're ever at or around KDED, please let me know! Would love to see you around my home town. Awesome video as usual!!
I used to fly in and out of Deland a lot in the 80s and 90s! Skydiving Capital of the World! I had family that lived in Debary and Deltona. Most have since moved away. Thank you for watching!
My favorite planes to fly in Microsoft Flight Simulator are the TBM 960 and the Cessna T37. But I usually have to forego the fun and fly the Archer on the simulator because that is what I am getting my instrument training in and the instruments are closer to the actual instruments in the plane that I train in. I enjoy watching your videos greatly as it offers a different perspective and one that I most probably will never see.
I would love to fly a T37 in real life! They look like a bundle of fun! My first solo (back in 1987) was in an Archer. It's such a great plane and has made me a low-wing fan ever since. My brother soloed in a Cessna 150 and mainly works on 182s and 206s now and he has an affinity for high wings (but he's obviously wrong :-p)
great video once again! just finished my private pilot at 19. i hope to fly in cooperate soon when all my ratings are complete.
Awesome! Congratulations! Are you going to work on your Instrument next? Where are you flying out of?
@@AccidentalAviator thank you! yes I'll be staring my instrument soon . I'm all the way up in Minnesota.luckily instrument doesn't need vfr weather. weather tends to be bad here a lot .
@@user-nl8vd6bw6m I've got friends from Wayzata and St. Paul... and one that lives all the way up in Wayzata. I was in Rochester a few years ago.
@@AccidentalAviator Rochester that's nice! i been there few times. i stay in the Minneapolis area mostly.
Been in and out of FXE twice recently in my SR22. Both times rwy 9 arrival and departure. Both times off of 9 I lost GPS just for a few seconds near the big black building off the departure end of 9. Have you ever experienced that? Love your channel!
Hey Thomas. I've been flying in and out of Executive for over 30 years and I don't recall ever having any GPS reliability issues around that area.
I haven't flown a small(er) plane into there in quite some time though, for the last 15 years it's mostly been Pilatus or CJ3+, so I wonder if it might have something to do with being closer to that building.
It would be weird though because their only approach to 27 is an RNAV/GPS approach and I've shot that many times without issue.
Thanks for the info. Was kind of odd. First time out I had 2 other planes with me, another Cirrus and a Bonanza. We took off in sequence and everybody had it happen. All Garmin equipped aircraft too? I definitely think your CJ has a bit quicker climb than me 😂😂. Have a great Easter weekend
@@thomasjenkins6950 That is definitely bizarre and I've never seen a notam about it. I haven't been out of there in my arrow or any other small plane as I usually fly out of Pompano with those planes. I'd be interested in knowing if it happens the next time you're in there!
Hi...new subscriber here! Lifelong aviation enthusiast. I would love to get Microsoft Flight Sim some day to experience the thrills. This is the second video I've watched of yours and I really enjoy all the explaining you give. Easy to understand. I have even Google'd some terms used to get more definitions. When do you choose to switch off Autopilot when landing? Also, for this trip's take off and landing, I noticed you had the yoke on an angle. Could you please explain why this was needed? Thank you for taking me along for the ride. I'd love to climb aboard and join you. All the best. I'll keep watching!
I appreciate you watching! If you are confused about anything I've said, just ask and I'll try to elaborate more.
With regards to the autopilot on landing, I generally kick it off around or just before the time that I've been cleared for the approach. If I have a copilot on board I might do it a bit earlier. There really is no "right" answer to this question other than flying on the autopilot reduces the amount of work that you're having to do. Same thing goes for takeoff. If I'm flying single pilot I'll generally fly to at least 5 or 10 thousand feet, but if I'm coming out of some place that requires a lot of step climbs and multiple radio / heading changes I might put the autopilot on right after I'm off the ground. If I have a copilot on board, I'll generally fly up to 20-30 thousand feet before I kick on the autopilot.
With regards to the controls, you generally have the controls turned into where the wind is coming from This keeps the wind from "lifting" the wing prematurely on takeoff or abruptly on landing. If you look closely at this videos landing, the wind was coming out of the northeast (to the left) and gusting pretty good. You can see me keeping the left wing down and using a lot of right rudder peddle to keep the plane straight down the runway. Once you touch down it's important (extremely in the jet) to keep that aileron into the wind. If I were to immediately go neutral the chances of the plane fishtailing and/or lifting the left wing increase.
I've had multiple instructors say "continue to fly the plane till you're at taxiing sped."
I hope that answers your questions! Thank you for subscribing!
That was a great flight and very smooth landing. I look forward to your next video. I have not been subscribed very long, but do you ever post videos from your own private plane? Have a Happy Father's Day and stay safe!
I plan on filming in my airplane also once I get it back from South Florida. I contemplated selling it over the last few years, but have decided to keep it and am putting it through a pretty extensive annual and upgrading a few things.
So, once I get it back, yes I will be filming in it as well!
X-Plane 11 and 12. Phenom 300
Phenom 300 is a great plane. I really should find time to play with X-Plane.
Great video and flight. Nice editing/production. It was great to see that rain shaft from the air just W of FXE. You don't get views like that from the ground!
No you don't and it's so typical for Florida. It can be pouring in one area and perfectly clear in others. Even flying around VFR you can usually pick your way around Florida showers.
Another good flight video, thanks for sharing. Are your passengers paid customers to these destinations? I live in Wilmington and I often wonder about other flight options out of ILM. I most likely can’t afford it anyway 😂. This flight and the Nashville flight seemed so smooth. Thanks again for sharing.
My passengers are generally the owners of the airplane and their families. I'm just a contracted pilot. We are not a charter service, so there's no paying customers on these flights.
For checklist management, is there any yoke control or just gtc knob/joystick? Flying CJ4 with PL21, Longitude and HJ in MSFS. Enjoyed flying Warrior IRL in the 90s. Highest Complex time in Arrow. Not current since 2000. Chose not to take IFR check ride after being signed off to do so. Enjoy the sim for IFR and light/med jets to get experience I couldn’t probably get irl anytime soon.
No, currently the only way to check off items is pushing the GTC joystick in. Some people like the abbreviated laminated checklist, but once I got it all transferred into the GTC, I really enjoy having it there. If you ever get distracted while running a checklist, you know exactly where you left off.
On other G3000 versions you can have checklist that automatically check items off as you perform them (flows) which is nice, but our is not that fancy as of yet :-)
I have MS Simulator, but use mouse and keyboard only. I find that rudder control is "less than optimal" using the keyboard. What controls do you use? I see a lot of different options for rudder and throttle controls. (I am a PPSEL and have not flown for a number of years. I used to be a Piper Archer 181 co-owner.) Thank you for the videos....they are very informative.
Unfortunately I haven't used Flight Simulator in a while as I don't really have the time. I used to use it a ton in the 80's and 90's though, mostly with the rudder coupled and either the keyboard or a joystick.
I've used other desktop simulators that had rudder peddles but never felt quite comfortable with them. Maybe someone else can chime in with answers to this?
I love your videos, im learning English, one question, would you put subtitles to the atc communication? I think it a good idea, its just my opinion, regards..
I appreciate you watching. I thought I let it automatically create subtitles on this video, but I may be mistaken. It's kind of a painstaking process so I've so far resisted.
I will look into it more though!
I just took a peek and it looks like there are automatic closed captioning / subtitles on this video. You might just have to turn them on. My other videos don't have it.
Let me know if it's working for you!
Video tech question. What’s the difference between your wide front facing camera and the PFD/MFD closer one, as the refresh sync is good in the closer one and a bit off in the wide. Both though are much better than some yt guys’ where the screens are unviewable Thanks!!
This is a great question and a very keen eye on your part!
What you're seeing from the back camera with regards to avionics is called "banding" and it's when the frame rate of the camera does not match the refresh rate of the monitors. The camera pointed directly at the avionics I have adjusted the frame rate to be 60fps which matches the refresh rate of the avionics, so it shows a pretty clear picture.
If I would change the back camera to 60fps, the problem is all of the avionics would be in clear focus, but the outside-the-window view would turn extremely white/pale. If you view some of my other videos, I accidentally set the side camera to this and even though I'm flying in blue skies, it looks like I'm in the clouds. So, I've gone with the auto setting and just allowed the GoPro to do what it thinks is best (which results in really good out-the-window visuals)
If someone knows how to fix this issue (either by GoPro settings, video editing, or even a new/different camera) I'm game to listen. I've read a lot about lighting, frame rate, shutter speeds and the like, but have yet to come up with something perfect!
@@AccidentalAviator The 60fps to match the refresh rate of the avionics works perfect. I only know that in DaVinci Resolve you can alter the frame rate of individual parts of your clip and change color resolution in the "Color Page"; maybe this can help you out somehow.
@@raccoonair Actually I misspoke. It's not FPS, it's shutter speed. The shutter speed needs to match the refresh rate of the avionics, and (to my knowledge) it's not something fixed after-the-fact. I'm still searching for a good solution!

Was the double beep the 1 minute warning to TOD?
I assume that you're asking about the double-beep at around 10:45 in the video. Yes, this is the 1 minute to TOD chime, and you can confirm that by looking at the MFD bottom right hand corner. It has a count-down timer to TOD. Nice catch!
