    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.

    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 :-)

      either way you have to sequence them unless you are relying upon visual separation. wake turbulence still exists.

    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.

    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).
