  • We flew out to spend a fun few days in GA and paid the price on the way home by finding 2 lines of thunderstorms to work through (around) and by facing the strongest headwind I have seen in my all my flying. Still love it though! :)

    Jason ...
    Many thanks for your videos. Delightful to me.
    I have loved the TBM for years now. My dream aircraft.
    I’ve had several aircraft and now fly a Columbia with the G1000.
    I take my family and friends several times a year to Austin Executive. We like to go to the One World Theatre and listen to smooth jazz music. The Concord engine there at the FBO is always a treat for me to look at. Anyway ..... you have a beautiful family. Keep the videos coming, I’ll be sure to watch.

    as luck would have it found your channel as it was suggested to me by you tube due to TBM in the title card.
    First of all I absolutely love the TBM, what model is she ?. your co pilot is doing a great job, great to see you have got her involved. Also congratulations on your briefing the take off and landing with her so you both understand what's going to happen. whish all pilots followed this example as i'm sure it would save more lives / reduce accidents.
    a little more volume on the comm's would be good also + show a full readback of ATC initial clearance as it wasn't there.
    grat vlog though, appreciate it & I have reccomended your channel to others also. good work

  • @ColinSummers
    @ColinSummers 4 года назад

    Brings up a great point about the glide rings for planes in the flight levels. Obviously, the headwinds aren't going to be 100+ knots as you get to the ground. Can it watch them as you go up, or check them on the nearby ground stations and interpolate or something?

    Some headwind! I saw you mentioned at take off 40% thrust so im guessing cruise somewhere around 30%. With those headwinds i wonder how much you had to put into it for that 12 mile +. 50%?

    • @JasonFlies
      @JasonFlies  4 года назад +2

      The 40% is just a temp setting where I check instruments and make sure the prop governor is working at 2000 RPM, then I ramp up to about 90% during the takeoff. From there the increasing airspeed with raise the power into the upper 90s for me. I was cruising around 80% power.

    So i'm a software developer in my last semester of college but I also love aviation, so pretty much similar to you. Do you have any advice to become wealthy developing software? I know it pays well but not a TBM-900 well. How did you start with foreflight as the developer/cofounder? That seems like you won the lottery having boeing buy it. (Although different because you actually put in the work)... I don't want to be wealthy beyond my dreams, just enough to live very comfortably and own a plane such as this...

There are 2X as many accidents in singles (but there are 10X as many hours flown in singles rather than twins so of course there would be more accidents) but in twice as many accidents there are 1/2 as many fatalities. The reason, of course is the limitation on stall speed in a single. You can walk into a wall and it won't hurt you. If you hit it at 140 mph it will kill you.

    Whatever room you are in creates an echo or the mic you are using is not of quality. You might want to hang either some heavy curtains in the room or tac up some blankets on the wall. Either one will make your vice easier to hear and understand without turning the volume way up. The curtains or the blankets will absorb some sound and prevent the reverb/echo effect.
