    Now instead of picturing a young Christian Bale shouting Cadillac of the Skies as the P-51 flies by I will have the though "Cessna 152 Miata of the Skies!" burned into my brain.

    This was fekkin cool. I liked your climb rate description....."2 to 3 business days". Now. All that needs to be done is to get Sarah to help you with her contacts.........and then review an A-10😁

    Those landings looked GREAT to this non-pilot!
    You look like you enjoy EVERY aspect of your aircraft! Flying it, learning everything about it and working on it keeps you interested.
    That old cliché about the best days of owning an airplane being the day you buy and the day you sell it WON'T apply to you.
    You are...Zen?... about your aircraft. You are present and in the moment. You don't hire a strange aircraft for a little fling; you are immersed in the nuts and bolts of every aspect of aviation simply by experiencing your plane.
    Looking forward to more flying videos whenever YOU want to make them. I enjoy the flying, the fibreglass car and Scrappy, too. Aloha!

    I did my basic flying training on a 60's C150, its an aircraft that I will always have a soft spot for and would happily fly one again. I even managed to fit my 6' 1" lanky frame into one! They are sadly very expensive to operate in the UK as they have to be maintained by a certified mechanic otherwise I would likely have bought the one I trained on.

    Nice production and editing on this review! FYI the plural form of "aircraft" is in fact "aircraft". Regardless of whether you are referring to a single plane or a fleet of them, the word "aircraft" remains unchanged in both singular and plural contexts. Strange indeed, given the lake had many boats and the garage was packed with motorcycles. I look forward to seeing more content from you. Keep up the good work:)

    Aircraft is the plural of aircraft. Aircraft's is the possessive.

    Started out my flight training in a Citabria and it was a steep learning curve. Then moved to a Cessna training center and the 150 and it was a world of difference! Super easy to fly....get one in a spin and it literally will recover on it's own!

I fly commercially so hopefully I run into you when I get in the Phoenix area! Keep flying high and producing these great videos! (Also that Crown Vic is sweet, the wheels got me 😂)

    You are doing good on any airplane to gain more than 1 knot with wheelpants. You need to fold the gear into the fuselage to see 15 knot gains.

  • @robertevans6481
    @robertevans6481 3 месяца назад +1

    You just brought back a lot of good memories. My dad removed the wheel cover's because of the weight,yes its about almost 30 pounds off of airplane. He was going to get his instructor certification, but 9/11 cancel his flying days,since the insurance went up to the point where it was costing more than before 9/11 . Plus i think what really happened was his health,both of those issues grounded him. Yes many flights in 150's 152's 172's 182's. Cardinal RG was one of my favorites.

    I got my PPl 3/70, trained in J3 Cub, PA-22 Piper Colt, Cessna 150, Cessna172 and 182 also Piper 140 and 180 planes. The plane I liked the most was the Piper Colt very responsive on the controls for a training plane also the best plane for doing spot landings, chop the power had the glide ratio of a anvil. 😎🛩

    I was wondering, while doing my course a long time ago, north of the border, it was so hot when we were on the ground during summertime in these 152s/172s. On hot days (Canada hot days), it was almost unbearable. How do you cope with the heat in Arizona, it must be hell in the cockpit when you are doing the engine runup, system checks, and before take-off checklist

    C172SP is the perfect one. Or the Diamond DA40. I dunno one of those two. The c152 can't carry two hefty men like say an instructor and student. Also I feel it's time we all moved on to FUEL INJECTION, which the 172S and DA2 offer but the c152 commonly found in club do not offer. Umm umm I did pretty much all my training in 172SP and I am 6ft 4in and was 280lbs at the time. My school had affordable prices for renting their 172SP and they had 20 of them. Really glad I did not purchase a plane fwiw. I would forget about the carb heat lol.

    Don't wear sunglasses all the time - especially not at the beginning! (pls).
    It is not very inviting to the viewers to deny them reading your eyes and facial expressions.
    Apart from that - well done!
