Controllers love pilots like you; no delay on the calls, crisp and clean read-backs, and able to hustle across an active runway without hesitation - the controller knew he could count on you to do that, that’s why he asked - if it was someone else, maybe not. Great video Owen! New subscriber.
I worked near LAX in the 1980s and watched planes from my office window. Smaller planes usually came in high but I never knew why. You explained at 16:40 that you were coming in high and landing long to stay above the previous plane's wake, which makes perfect sense and explains what I saw 40 years ago and didn't know the reason for. Thanks very much for a fine video.
I love the way Owen handles his calls. I can't imagine flying into LAX without experience. Calls between the ATC and pilots are a science into itself. Bravo on a great safe flight Owen.
ATCo from Europe here. You asked yourself, if ATC would prefere you flying IFR or VFR. When you have a slow aircraft between all the airliner jets, you want the slow aircraft as close as possible to the runway threshold, so when you turn the slow guy in, you block the final for the shortest time possible. The easiest way to do that, would be VFR. So yes: From my perspective as an approach controller, I would prefere VFR. Makes things much easier :-)
Smoooooooooth. Impressive situational awareness and incredible job staying ahead of the airplane. This was some of the best I've seen yet on RUclips. Bravo sir!
Im working on my instrument license and this video is actually amazing to hear all the comms, I felt like I was learning a ton because where I fly is nowhere near as busy but I was mentally on top of the comms they gave you , awesome video
@@FlyWithOwen I havent flown too much since the summer because I am about to finish A&P school and about to test for my A&P but once thats all done with I will get back to it, only have my written and a maybe 10 hours left until I am ready for my check ride
This was a masterclass on professionalism, clear and concise radios, situational awareness and mastery of their crafts on behalf of the pilot and the controllers. Take notes, this is how it’s done.
Another great video. It really illustrates the amount of work that a pilot has to do flying into LA. I don’t know who was busier you or your brother. I’ve noticed on your different videos, your sunglasses. Are you rocking Ray Bans’? They could be a good sponsor! Great video. Tomaso 😎🤙🏽
Really impressive how you make and keep the read backs from your mind. I would have to write them down anyway. Beside this a real busy and stressing approach into KLAX. Thank's for letting us joining you!
I really enjoyed this video - much appreciated. I've not flown in LA airspace but plan to soon, so this was really helpful to watch. Thanks for sharing - and for the high quality video and sound too!
The explanation about plane ownership and flight purpose was great. Cleared up a lot of questions I had. Great video. Great adventure. Thanks for posting.
So cal has always been so accommodating for me and whoever I’m Flying around with. As long as you pay attention. A lot of clowns out there not paying attention and they will quickly correct you. Thank you for taking the comms aspect seriously. People entering this world need good examples like this. (They love to keep you in suspense with that last second bravo clearance!)
Thanks for the fun video, Owen. I'm retired from Southwest and haven't heard center conversation for quite a few years. I really enjoyed. I've flown that downwind many a time. Nice job on keeping your speed up. Good flying to you.
Damn that was good! Two points...your experience just shines on this! Second, the torch has been passed. You're wearing the hoodie and Chris the cool printed collared button down 😀Just as life should be sir..... Clear skies🙏
Just did my first solo yesterday. I’m learning out of PHNL Class Bravo and aspiring to be the type of professional you are. Thanks for the inspiration!
Regional rat here. Dude. Your comms and professionalism were surprising and refreshing. Usually it’s amateur hour in 91. Love the “position checks” call. No one bothers to do that anymore
Living the dream young man. I hope you realize how fortunate you are. Keep up the good work. I really enjoy your videos. Due to my fear of heights, I had to choose a career law enforcement over being a pilot. I’ve been a aviation enthusiast since a young boy.
Owen is a very talented young pilot; no attitude like the Bonanza ace. Last time I landed at LAX in a private aircraft I was with a fellow named Bob Hoover in a Sabreliner👍
Just moved out of California. Lived just east of Lost Angeles. Crazy busy airspace, for sure! How fun to fly into LAX VFR on that sweet ride!! I'm jealous. LOL Fly safe, sir!
Flew my C182 into LAX several years ago to haul some other pilots from Chino to recover some war birds that were on display at the old West Imperial Terminal. Also did a photo flight using a B-25 as a camera plane back when I was flying second in command in it. I know that class B like the back of my hand. Used to work at LAX back in the 70s and early 80s. Lots has changed since then. I’m surprised they landed you in the north complex since you most likely were going to the FBO on the south side.
I worked at LAX and flew my Cherokee into there just for yuks one time. Too much taxi abuse to do it again though. But it was fun aiming for touchdown 1/3 way down 25L and getting the first high speed. ATC was great. Remember the old commuter terminal / pad where the Bradley building is now. Goldenwest Otters and Shorts skyboxes, and Skywest Metros, and even Cochise Navajos going to the desert. You know back when MD-80s were "quiet." You could get off 25L and climb over the fog bank coming in over the shoreline and go back to TOR VFR. Those were the days.
Great video how GA and commercial can operate together. The challenge is with GA community and their ability to integrate seamlessly into an IFR environment. My feeling is that 90% couldn’t integrate without at least an instrument rating.
First learned of you when you were flying with some guy named Matt. Glad I found you again, AND on your own channel. Great content! Much more interesting.
I remember the 441 Conquest I with Airesearch TPE331's like we had in the MU-2's. You must be flying the Conquest II with PT 6's. Didn't have much time in the turbo-prop PW's.
I work lax approach now, if your vfr and can do 170 or better to the marker all is good, if your slower and you delay a whole lineup of ifr aircraft then you can expect to hold, there are times during the day that you could be delayed also due to traffic volume. Glad you made it in!!!
Based at Compton for several years in the late 1980s. Flew the VFR flyway over LAX but never landed there. Quite the experience overhead LAX at I think 3500 feet jets everywhere. Fun!
I have found flying into KATL, that as a GA aircraft (I fly a Piper Dakota) that we just keep best forward speed and are able to slot us in pretty easy. I normally will file IFR and from the direction I typically arrive, I know I am probably getting 26R or 08L depending on winds (closest runway to Signature FBO to get me off the runway and out of the way of the big boys) and I will file to set me up for vectors to final pretty easy. The biggest thing is keeping track of all the frequencies (LOL).
Saw the turbos, but didn't recognize the plane. First thought it was a 350, but didn't have a high tail. Nice craft. That was fun. I have Flightradar24 to check out the flights coming and going. Thanks!
Nice vid. Crazy what it takes to “park” at LAX 🛬 Spent a lot of time in a friend’s Cessna 401 up and down east coast and Caribbean. I enjoy your IG stories. Saw you fly over many times back when we lived in Los Altos 🛩 keep flying
I guessed right about your approach. I live right at 14:09, which is where the rarely used I-5 approach to LAX used only by props re-merges with the heavily-used I-10 approach used by jets, before you make the turn back toward the airfield. Until recently, I used to see Alaska D8s from MTY and STS fly the I-5 route past Glendale - which must have been the last props serving LAX - so I figured that's how they'd take you. Though if they wanted to, they could probably take you over the airfield, which they do for some HHR approaches. Thanks for the cool video.
Awesome flight I like everything about how you pilot the aircraft. I am a so cal native and always wanted to fly and have with my friend a few times out of POC. I worked at UPS in ONT for years in Flight Operations and i love love love aviation. I was able to understand your communication and I knew location wise where you were and yes I just appreciate it. Landing behind one of the big boys that was awesome and showing the wake and keeping the distance was very eye opening. A day before my birthday too lol. I live in SBD and always look up to see LAX approach and ONT approach. Enjoy your time flying and will look forward to watching more You have a great job and it shows when you fly.
Nice work keeping composed and flying ahead of the jet. I imagine they would’ve put you on vectors for sequencing regardless of the VFR/IFR -AF Moose Driver

either way you have to sequence them unless you are relying upon visual separation. wake turbulence still exists.
Do you also say: cleteka?
The next big aviation RUclipsr 🔥🔥
Agreed!
Tru dat!

Absolute wizard with the comms! Great video, looking forward to seeing more!
Couldn’t agree more
I came to the comments to say the same thing.
So much points of perfection 🥰

Great flight! Clear radio communication, smooth heading changes, approach and landing. Thanks for bringing us along!
Great radio work! I'm bookmarking this to watch again just for the comms.
Watching from faraway New Zealand and loving every minute. Thank you!
This was a masterclass on professionalism, clear and concise radios, situational awareness and mastery of their crafts on behalf of the pilot and the controllers. Take notes, this is how it’s done.
This is a great first video. Been following you for a long time so it is nice to see longer version content. Love the Turboprops and jets you fly.
Thanks for watching!
Very nice Owen - clean, crisp professional, this is how it's done!
So good...watched it twice! Bravo clearance request was spot on! Props to your brother also!
Wow, great work on the radios!! Thanks for sharing! Awesome aircraft! Great to hear you made into a Gulf cockpit!
All the best from Germany 🇩🇪

Holy cow. Busy place. Fun watching you handle it all like a professional.
Appreciate that!
VFR into LAX! That is bananas! Maybe one of these days when I grow up I'll be able to fly like a big kid myself! Nicely done sir. Fly well brother.
Thanks for watching!
BADASS Totally dope! Another prodigy from Cali. 😎
Loved this video. So wonderful to see people accomplish with such competence and grace. Thanks!
Very nice ride brings back old memories, really enjoyed flying The conquest II. Compliments to your cameraman, very smooth.
What a joy to see a pilot that can talk on the radio. no cringe "request taxi to the active" "this is" "with you"
Wow, what a work load you had there. Excellent video very professional. 👍🏽😎
Man that was awesome! Well done Owen. Lax is busy as hell hahaha
This is amazing piloting! Can't wait to be on this level.
Thank you!
Beautiful job all around. Impressive work on the radios.
Appreciate the kind words!
Damn that was good! Two points...your experience just shines on this! Second, the torch has been passed. You're wearing the hoodie and Chris the cool printed collared button down 😀Just as life should be sir..... Clear skies🙏
Super smooth! Excellent making it look easy.
Thank you!
New to flying the Conquest, thanks for a great orientation vid of how to "do it right"! Will be following you future vids closely.
That was awsome. Got to watch it again. Awesome.
Just did my first solo yesterday. I’m learning out of PHNL Class Bravo and aspiring to be the type of professional you are. Thanks for the inspiration!
Congrats. Thanks for watching!
SUPER JOB with ATF and taxing to the final stop at this HUGGGGE airport. !!!!
FANTASTIC VIDEO, Thank you for this….. so calm and collected… love it…..
Regional rat here. Dude. Your comms and professionalism were surprising and refreshing. Usually it’s amateur hour in 91. Love the “position checks” call. No one bothers to do that anymore
Hey now, jump plane guy here and sure does! (And you’re right, I never hear anyone else do it). People’s comms are trash here in San Diego.
Glad you finally did it, been waiting for a while and was well worth it, nice flight 🤘🏻
Thanks for watching!

I’m truly blessed. Thanks for watching
Oh nice! A real cockpit. Good job mate. I like how you actually fly the plane rather than hiding behind endless lists and procedures.
Impressive pilotage. Great catch on the Class B clearance
Owen is a very talented young pilot; no attitude like the Bonanza ace. Last time I landed at LAX in a private aircraft I was with a fellow named Bob Hoover in a Sabreliner👍
He was a legend. How did you hook up with the guy? Are you his next door neighbor or some corporate exec. that mingle with very important people.
Thanks for watching! Awesome you flew with Mr Hoover. I’ve met him once
Just moved out of California. Lived just east of Lost Angeles. Crazy busy airspace, for sure! How fun to fly into LAX VFR on that sweet ride!! I'm jealous. LOL Fly safe, sir!
Thanks for watching!
This is my first video of yours that I’ve seen. 1/4 of the way through and I hit the subscribe button!
Another awesome video, Owen. Always a pleasure to watch.
Thanks for watching!
So busy. ATC's are a God send
Phew! I need to take a nap! That was awesome guys. Watch you on JR Aviation and am now subscribed to your channel.
Awesome! Thank you!

Was there any cost to land and drop off passenger pilots at the W imperial Terminal since you didn't have to tie down there for any length of time?
Wow! Amazing comm. Felt like I was in the cockpit. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching! More on the way
Great video how GA and commercial can operate together. The challenge is with GA community and their ability to integrate seamlessly into an IFR environment. My feeling is that 90% couldn’t integrate without at least an instrument rating.
Agree!
Fantastic first video. Can't wait to see this channel "takeoff" in a big way. Now going to anxiously await the Kona flight in the G4.
Just had to laugh at your fifteen-mile taxi trip to your parking spot. LOL Reminds me of flying into DFW.
Keeps you on your toes!
Awesome video. I loved the wave at the Korean air pilots. lol.
nice work! very crisp on the comms! easy to tell wasn't your first rodeo.
as a Skywesty who flys into LAX frequently, I found this riveting. Great work. Makes me want to fly GA again... maybe .
What made you stop?
@@mr.futurestrader2115 flying daily for work. A bit of aerobatics here and there but that’s it.
Super great Brothers. Nice Flying
Loved the ride!! Wish I was that good on the radio! WoW your good and I would ride with you any day anytime ..
First learned of you when you were flying with some guy named Matt. Glad I found you again, AND on your own channel. Great content! Much more interesting.

Thanks for watching!
Awesome to see an approach and landing into LAX :D
Clean pilot, excellent radio work.
Thank you!
Yesss! I’ve been waiting for a vlog!!
What an amazing experience that must have been! Great radio comms!
Thank you!

Sweet! So 170 is the magic number - no problem in the Conquest. Thanks for watching, maybe I’ll talk to ya one of these days!
Based at Compton for several years in the late 1980s. Flew the VFR flyway over LAX but never landed there. Quite the experience overhead LAX at I think 3500 feet jets everywhere. Fun!

Much appreciated!
I love you guys, the way you make the videos, you make it amazing and interesting, may God be with you with you with all your trips.

How did i miss that Owen had some youtube content! Flames!
Flying in this busy airspaces single pilot is gotta be one of best challenges one can do.
That’s for sure! Staying ahead of the airplane is key.
It's also very fun and satisfying when you're proficient.@@FlyWithOwen
