    Loved the video. The only flaw I saw was at 4:26 you put that its 1562nm from phoenix to las vegas with a 3h 19m travel time in the crj200. Ive flown that flight in an airline in 35 min.

    • @HometownPilot
      @HometownPilot  2 года назад

      Thanks for watching Bob! Deer Valley is still mostly GA aircraft but I would say the business jet traffic has increased recently. I shot this during Scottsdale's runway renovation so the jet traffic was a tad exaggerated.

  • @CaptainReverendo

    • @HometownPilot
      @HometownPilot  2 года назад

      When this video was made, Deer Valley held the crown for busiest GA airport, mainly due to the pandemic. TEB and VNY are the two airports that are widely known as being the busiest for jet traffic, and SDL is making its way up that list (came in at #4 in 2021).

    • @HometownPilot
      @HometownPilot  3 года назад +2

      Thanks Chris! I usually pull the data from the manufacturers specs - seen here:
      www2.bombardier.com/Used_Aircraft/en/CRJ_Specifications.jsp
      However, I probably should have paid a little more attention. That range is for full flight of 50 passengers at an avg weight of 220 lbs each. I have found a couple different numbers for normal range - which fell between 1,345 nm and 1,650 nm.
      Thanks for point that out, I will amend in the description.

    Love this content! I can now look for some of the aircraft I used to fly…..I do question whether this airport is the busiest…Teterboro and White Plains come to mind, although White Plains is also a commerical airport (but mostly GA)

    • @HometownPilot
      @HometownPilot  2 года назад +1

      Thanks John! I appreciate you watching. What planes did you used to fly?
      At the time of making this video, Deer Vally (DVT) was actually the busiest GA airport in the world (2020). Since things have gotten back to normal a bit, Teterboro and Van Nuys have surpassed DVT again, however, it's still in the top 10.

    Hello there! I love this channel. I'm also totally blind, so I use screen-reading software to read the text in the comments and the description. Unfortunately, I had trouble with the first four airports at the top ten list, because they're not in English print. Is there a way you can update us with them in English? If not, perhaps you could give their call letters and in what city, country and province they are. I'd really appreciate it. Thank you.

      Hi Heather - thanks for the kind words! I had left the Top 4 Busiest Airports blank due to a trivia question I was running. I have since updated the description with the missing airports, but I will leave them here as well:
      Sorted By Takeoffs/Landings
