Amazing girl! ❤ luv flying with u✈️
Oh my gosh thank you my friend! I appreciate the super thanks more than you know and I hope you continue to love the videos🥰
For sure 👍😉
“Are they expecting you there?” 😂😂😂😂 classic.
Pops! You're daughter is AMAZING!
I already knew that but THANKS!
Went through T-37 instructor school at Randolph in 1972 January and February managed to pass and instructed till I got out at Williams AFB IN 1975. Glad I didn’t have to go to Vietnam. I enjoy your videos nice job.
Love it! "Are they expecting you N7738N?" LOL
I am 22 years retired from the Air Force
Flown in and out many times
I love this video!
Flew into Randolph a couple of times a week for at least 3 yrs...😆
I flew into Wright Patterson air force base a few years ago in a Cessna 172 during a civilian fly in and spent some time at the Wright Patterson air force museum. I had to submit a request and was selected to my surprise.
21:30 Old Fighter Pilot saying: "better to be lucky than good"
I got my private at Clark AB, commercial while flying out of Davis Mothon AFB.
I often flew to one in Michigan as my base of operations for my Navy Flying Club back in 1979.
Have landed many times at an Air Force Installation. But then again, I was in the Air Force so i did have that going for me.
🤣
That was awesome! I have worked at Randolph Air Force Base for over 20 years and you are correct I've only seen a handful of civilian aircraft that have ever landed there so you are one of just a few! The T-38s that were holding short are the aircraft I work on. Wish I would have known you were coming in I could have made arrangements for a meet and greet! Keep up the good work !
Flew a 182 to palmdale to see Columbia shuttle open house in the late 80s. Only GA aircraft on station. Transient Alert guided us ro parking with astronauts T38s. We called the tower 50 miles out with special permit. No problems with flight, clearances and departure.
I’m retired Air Force, there was a time (before all the budget cuts) when almost every Air Force Base with a flying operation had an aero club. It made sense because you always had a ready source of flight instructors. Even some of the ones in Europe where I took my first flying lesson at RAF Lakenheath in the mid 80s. My instructor was an F-111 radar officer that participated in the Libyan bombing.
Hey! First of all, glad you enjoyed the video!! It was planned but I had to keep it very hush hush, sorry we didn’t get a chance to meet! Who knows though, maybe I’ll be back someday!😊
@@kenheberling8120That’s awesome!
@@corydriver7634That absolutely would make sense to me. Not to mention you’d know that those pilots coming out of the club were getting good instruction!
Yep. 22 year AF veteran retired. Got tired of flying into, over and around Air Force bases (chuckles). Happy you enjoyed your flight. Tks for the smiles.
I love the father daughter vibe!! My daughter is motorcycles !!
Learned to fly with the Fort Hood Flying Club. Departed and Landed at GRK many times.
I remember, when I was an ATC operator, that, although the VHF frequencies are not listed, they ARE available. I worked in GCA and, when I flew into a base, I was able to communicate on VHF. The reason YOU were not hearing their trafic is because they simply don't use VHF that often. I was stationed at Hondo(a training base for initial jet training)
It's funny watching your dad's face during the flight it's funny
Got my Private at Whiteman AFB, Commercial and Instrument at Hickam AFB, Both Aero clubs. Worked on Instructor at Wright-Patterson AFB Aero Club. Most hours at Air Force Bases, wonderful Long - Long & wide runways.
Flew into Richards Gebauer AFB both as a student ( and broke up when my instructor answered tower when asked if gear was down and locked and he answered “down and welded” and later as a SEL IFR pilot when I flew in before a Thunderbird air show.
I was born on Richards Gebauer AFB. Then spent 20 years active duty.
Dickey gubber that’s place no longer exists.
I love the way you two banter back and forth.
That's sweet. Pops and daughter have a great relationship.
I love the way you banter with your Dad, Pops! Please post more videos with him. :)
Flew out of Loring Air Force Base and back when I was stationed there in a Civil Air Patrol Cessna. You realize how long those runways are landing in a small plane like that.
Yes master chef know too the concorede too thse air oirt
I earned my Private Pilot's license at Torrejon AB, Spain> What memories!
Yep, we flew to Ellsworth AFB back in the 1980's and got to tour a B1B when the cold war was still going! BTW, we were in a Cherokee too!
I’ve never flown to an AFB, BUT I was born on one . My dad was a pilot for 20 years.
Jimmy's World Sent me here.
I love the banter between you and your pops. Too funny!
Hahaha I’m glad, he gets on my nerves sometimes!😂
Popps is a goof I love it, K you are still a BOSS.
ah bless, I spent my Basic Training there before starting my 20 year career.
Love that Cherokee made right here in my home town. Vero Beach, FL
Melbore Florida not too far away from Kom Vero Beach floruda
I love this! You and pops have a great relationship! Another great video! Pops call sign Figet! 😂😂
FigetWithPops! :)
Yes longer and appreciate the posting 😊
Received my PPL at Randolph! Back when they had an aero club. Fun times mixing a Cessna with military traffic. Thanks for posting! Brought back some memories.
In the mid 90s, Colonel Drinkwater was the Commander of USAF Plant 42 in Palmdale, CA. He loved GA so much he allowed tie-down on C Ramp with 24 hour access to a break room and rest rooms in Bldg. 531. No landing fees!
On May 5th 1964, I was at Plant 42 for the roll out of the B70 Valkyrie. My dad was a tech rep for NAA. KE5D
Yes, I have landed at an AFB…Stewart AFB in New Windsor, NY. It’s now an international airport! Safe flying 👍🏻😘
Many moons ago, I had a Civil Air Patrol aircraft fly me some parts to a deployed training location. landed on a dirt road, took off from a major AFB. It was a civilian cessna.
Love this Father and Daughter fun. Real love there wonderful to see. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Kay, That was a magnificent flying of you to an Airforce Base by your 50 year old plane. Kay you can successfully fly anywhere in the world
I love the gopro under the tail. The looks are great from that perspective.
you and your pops have such a good relationship. I love it

My instructor was an F-111 radar officer that participated in the Libyan bombing.
Also stationed a RAF Lakenheath and in the AeroClub. Received Officer of the Quarter and part of the recognition was an orientation flight in an F-111. Being a medical officer and they had control of me, the pilots goal was that I would not keep the contents of stomach. I wasn't going to tell them that I had flight training. Was cleared by the Flight Surgeon...the Libya happened and all orientation flights were cancelled. Later as out doing touch and goes, let the tower know I saw people scaling the perimeter fence.
Master chef 1980. Dad sent chef top gun boming area dud for by 400 knots
I just discovered your RUclips channel and I love it. Watching you fly with your dad a co-pilot reminds me so much of flying with my dad back when I was a kid and teenager (I am 64 now ;-). We flew the exact same plane Piper Cherokee 180 on trips around Denmark and Sweden. I was supposed to get my own license but then my dad sadly passed away suddenly and I never managed to later. I will keep following your flights. Thanks a lot.
My plane is the same year and model. I love my little airplane.
Looks like you are having a good time in your video Kay
RandolphAFB was my duty base 73-74. We had the T38’s & 37’s there at that time. Nice flight. Good to see the place again.
A very good Monday morning to you all in the USA from Wellington Somerset in the UK 🇬🇧
I made an emergency landing when I was a student pilot ( 1970 ) at Rantoul AFB in Illinois ( now closed). I had some moisture and the engine was running rough turned the carb heat on and it got worse naturally so I wrongfully shut it off. I was flying overtop under a cloud layer so I called and asked to land. All went well and an Air Force major signed my logbook for a cross-country credit.
Dad was in a good mood this day.

Brilliant Kay, LOST you since you left Sugarland. Great to reconnect !
great video Kay, you and your Dad make me laugh. i look forward to seeing your military ride next. im sure its going to be good. Larry
Yep, done it quite a few times in Civil Air Patrol aircraft. The key thing to remember when flying into a fighter base are the arresting barriers. Many of these fields have arresting cables at either end for emergency use. Tower can usually tell you if the barriers are up. Even if they are, the locations are usually marked and you can just land beyond them.
My local airport also houses the air national guard so civilian an military aircraft sharing the same runways is a common sight here.
Pops is great!! Love all the videos!!
Fantastic video you have come a long way Kay keep it up
You guys make me smile enjoying your video glad to see you guys together
Always fun, Kay! Thank you!
Did most of my training at an air guard airport with F16's.and commercial traffic. I laughed everytime the tower reported to me, beware traffic @ 12 O'clock (an F16) 10 miles out, and in the same breath, disregard no longer a factor. 😅
Hey POPS ! That's what DADs do buddy. Let the Young ones do their thing !
Oh my gosh, LOVE your Pops!!!! Just subscribed. Great banter with you two.
I finally got it! Pops is comic relief! Congratulations on busting 1300 hours.
Thanks!
Master cgef dad navy. Sent chief top gun scholl fir 3 years schol to o umgun scholl 1300 hiure to 3100 hiyee f14 Tim cat nach 2.0
Nice video, definite "arrival" at Randolph. Looks like you are having fun with your father.
You both had me chuckling throughout the whole video! I’m looking forward to seeing your adventure there at Randolph AFB.
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@FlyWithKay I was cracking up when ATC asked where are you headed.. Like they where not sure if they heard that correctly.
Great job keeping the old man in line Kay, great flight also! Hope you have fun at the AFB!
Thanks! Great watching you and your Dad enjoying each other. Thanks for sharing this video 👍👍
I'm glad you enjoyed it Tim and thanks a bunch for the Super Thanks!
Hey. Girl. Wanna. Be. My. Girlfriend
Love it! Thanks for the video.
Very entertaining. Hope you give us more info on your Randolph visit. 👌
One of the best GA videos. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for your videos. I'm a 43 year old female who has always wanted to fly, and you have inspired me to do it. Thank you.
OMG...get your pilots license...it will change your world forever......!!!!
Great video, smiled and laughed at various interactions with your dad. Thank you both for a nice video.
My hubby is currently at Randolph!!! He's learning to fly the t6. Your videos help me understand his shop lingo!! We don't live at Randolph while he's training so when we see him he makes me study with him lol!! Thankfully I've learned alot from you!
Good plane msster flow irin wagels f16
Hey neighbor! I live right down the road from you in League City! I have flown into our local combination public/military base Ellington Field Airport, which has multiple operations (National Guard, NASA, Coast Gurard, Commercial, Public) No as bad as a 100 percent military base but is slightly more complicated-challenging! Happy flight and be safe!
I love your content, and your dad. What a blessing. More hours please!!
Nailed it Kay!
Considoi was an Air Force pilot, I most certainly flew to Air Force bases.😊
Kay you seem to amaze me. Your a great pilot
1st video and i liked and subscribed!!! Love aviation but not a pilot. Was an Army brat in the 60's and 70's so i spent almost 5 years at Ft. Hood /Killeen. Maybe one of your videos flys up tgat way and i think it would be fun to see the old place! Ill look through your videos. Thanks for sharing your flights with us!!!
Haven't flown into one, but did sit in the copilot seat while they taxied a B-29 at SAC Headquarters in Bellevue Nebraska, when I was 3 years old!
Love the video. Y'all were hilarious. If I had a jet , I would take pops up in it. 😂
great video, as always. suggestion for future video. Would love to see you fly a high wing such as C172 and do a comparison with Little Red. High wing vs low wing.
That could be arranged! Thanks for the suggestion🥰
Luv the vids Kay and lol Pops i gotta go with Kay on that at the 16:12 mark lol i didn't hear it either 😂 lol but its always awesome when your in the vids with Kay stay awesome y'all 💯🤘
There are USAF bases that have Aero Clubs. These clubs are part of the MWR organization and they provide aircraft for rental and flight instruction. Most of the pilot instructors are civilians, so they fly into bases often.
Yep, that's how I learned to fly. My instructor was a B-52 pilot.
Yeah, I was a member of the Patrick Air Force Base Aero Club in Florida for almost 30 years, had my share of landings at Air Force Bases, an army post or two and even Naval Air Station’s. I remember correctly Randolph had one of the largest flying clubs
@@johnm2213 I remember also that some of the USAF Aero Clubs had gotten some aircraft from the DEA. They were capture\d aircraft from the drug mule flights out of Central and South America. Sheppard AFB had a Cessna 402 that still had aux fuel tanks in the passenger bay. They were waiting for a crew to come remove the tanks so it could be used by the Aero Club.
@@marshallpoe8087 yes I think the Eglin Air Force Base aero club had one or two seized assets that they flew, both twins, I believe
I love the interaction between you and your 'Pops'. Adds to the entertainment value of the videos. Thanks - fun to watch.
Oh great, I’m so glad! A new one will be up on Wednesday😂
Absolutely awesome video love those colors on your plane !! 👍😎😎 and your absolutely amazingly beautiful
That was fun . Love the banter you and your Dad have with each other. Your a lucky girl.
Got my PPL at the Edwards aero club. Our runway was @ 2miles south of the tower . We flew from historic south base runway 06 and 24. If you flew a low wing plane they always called you a Cherokee even if you were in a archer or TB-10. Fun times loved my 30 year career working there at south base.
I love the way you do these videos, its like im there next to you flying. Thanks
As a Flight Medic, I flew to Andrews to pick up a patient. No FBO, glad the C-17 had a latrine module in it.
I learned real quick a new item on the checklist. Never drink a coke while doing a pre-flight walkaround. Found out the hard way that there are no latrines in Cessnas. SMOOTHEST LANDING EVER!
It was my habit to visit the bathroom on every stop. One of our pilots always quoted "Start each flight with a full fuel tank and empty bladder, not the. other way around."
Yes March Field in Riverside, Ca, learn to fly there in the Aero Club, back in 82-84. 😵💫😵💫 I’ve also held up a couple of C-135’s before too 😅😅
Eglin AFB in Florida had an aero club in the early 80s (don't know if they still have it). I was stationed there and I started my training and got my private license there.
Awesome Video!!! Please do more videos with Pop
Awesome Video Thanks!
Brad, you're so great! I'm glad you enjoyed the video and thanks so much for the "Super Thanks!"
In the 60s sorry for the 2nd message lol
Loll😅
Somebody needs voice lessons 😊lol
Great video, good job! Stop busting on Pops haha
fun flight. I learned to fly in a cherokee, fun little planes and much more fun to learn on than the cessnas imho.
I love all of your videos , but the ones with Dad as copilot are especially fun !!
Perfect timing when you knocked on the screen. I was looking away just at that moment and you got my attention! lol Great video.
Dover AFB in DE many times in my plane and a CAP 172/182's...lots of Airforce bases in Nam in an O 1 Bird dog...enjoyed your flight.
I got my private pilot training at Barksdale AFB aero club.
I enjoyed your flight to RND. A first for a landing for y'all on a military airfield. Certainly glad you have flight following so they can relate where close planes are located. I've flown, as a pilot into the Naval Air Station in Corpus Christi but the plane came from an Aero club located on base there. So, I guess we had to fly out from NGP to make it back to NGP. Anyway I was flying a T--34 that belongs to the aero club and I was not a "Navy Pilot." At the time, 1965, I was stationed at the base as a tuba player for Navy Unit Band #85. We also flew the clubs Cessna 172 while there too.
