I've been flying since I was 16 and at age 19 flew around the world by myself in the same 1981 A36 Beechcraft Bonanza I still fly, becoming the youngest person ever to solo circumnavigate by aircraft.
Now, I'm sharing all kinds of aviation adventures with YOU! Ride along as we explore the world from the air and get a close up look at some of aviation's best flight experiences and destinations.

I built several of them myself, health problems, heart attack, lung cancer, muscle and bone condition put a stop to my entire building process. I miss it so much. The L-39 will always hold a special place in my memory, best training jet aircraft ever built! Be careful, have fun, live for today because tomorrow is not promised! If I'm lucky in my next life, I may be doing it again.
Come visit us at FMC
Isn't it a light combat fighter jet?
That check list sequence with the 360 camera was totally excellent.
🤩
Yeah, editor was spot on there!
But the sound effects was a bit too much
@@youtube-user73424 Annoying, actually.
@@jbw9999 agreed
This pilot is an all star, that's for sure. Impeccable performance out of the Viper driver. This jet is such a beauty.
His callsign is V+12, and he's a pro for sure.
By far my favorite aviation channel and there are tons. It’s mind boggling that you purchased a fighter jet, had it shipped from Europe, assembled it in a tiny hanger, found a packer for the chutes, picked the test pilot up in Florida, and airborne in such a short period of time. You are turning dreams into reality and I commend you Matt and the others involved in this project.
I repeat, SERIOUS MONEY.
@Bret Breckinridge: Not by fighter jet standards. I can't believe how cheap those L39's are.
Keep in mind the L-39 is not a fighter it's a trainer. Very cool regardless.
Whoever carefully disassembled and prepared it for shipping in Estonia is a rockstar.
@@nighthawk0077 This has become a multi-million dollar industry in several former soviet block counties. This is due to the market demand for former military jets in the US.
Interesting that there are three privately owned Mig-29s in the US.
The team of maintainers who put the jet together deserve full credit. Bravo!
From all of us at FMC, Thanks !
How cool was this test pilot?! Dude was absolutely a total pro. And the checklist scene was freakin intense
Bet you didn’t notice how he ducked out behind the hanger and dropped to his knees praying Matt and crew put all the screws/bolts back in place. Seriously, this about trust, trust in the airframe and everyone who had touched it.
Well done Matt and crew!
Oh my what can it be Matt?
What a soft spoken man. That is probably some of the most gentle, calm, & collected radio calls I've ever heard!
lol.. hilarious
As a young boy, I dreamed of being a Fighter Pilot. Bad eye sight kept me from doing it. You Guys are living it. Beautiful plane. God speed!!
they are not fighter pilots... they are playing at being fighter pilots.. big big difference
@@johnmcintosh8398 - Fair point. But cool nonetheless.
are you fighter pilot did you even play like them?
It’s even better for them as they don’t risk being shot down by a ground to air missile
I’ve seen the L-39 many times but had no idea it was a kit build. It’s the BD-5J’s much bigger brother. Beautiful!
The best part for me is to test pilot is left-handed. My personal experience is learning to fly right handed well as an acutely left-handed person was one of the most challenging things I've ever had to do.
Thanks Matt for what you do and your willingness to share your personal journey.
Maybe he is ambidextrous like me? Although I am not a pilot like him.
I noticed that, too, as I have two left handed brothers.
you get used to it probably
i'm right handed and i drive cars using my right hand only
but when i'm driving a boat it's left hand on the wheel and right on the throttle
Captains fly with their left hand. Instructors, co-pilots and stick-pilots fly with their right hand. No problem for an accomplished pilot.
OUTSTANDING camera-work and editing! Congratulations to the entire L-39 crew!
I'll bet it was really rewarding to see someone with so much passion for your airplane flying it the first time. Congrats to all.
This is the absolute best cockpit video editing I've ever seen, thank you for that. I've never really seen the fast multi view switching like that but everyone should do it on cockpit videos
A wonderful video. I'm sitting here grinning like a seven-year-old at his own birthday party! What a great gift to all of us. Thanks, Matt.
Not really a fan of aviation, but somehow the RUclips algorithm brought me here. As an Estonian it's really awesome to see the Estonian color scheme still on. I hope you keep it, it looks really great 😎
Always pleased to see this baeutifull Czechoslovak airplane in the sky.
This is one of the best friggin flying videos I have seen on Matt’s channel. That test pilot is so cool 😎 😎 😎
Awesome guys - massive congratulations!
Thank you Matt for this excellent video, cant wait for the next one.
Wow Matt! Congratulations for the jet. It’s a dream come true.
This is freaking amazing, congrats guys!!!
Awesome camera work, awesome editing and what an amazing aircraft! Thank you, Matt!
🥰
Really enjoying the series. Great job thanks for sharing
LOVE this stuff, Thanks for letting Us watch !
Great video. Well put together Matt. Awesome machine!!
Sweet landings!!! Thank you for this. Beautiful L39
Really cool. Kind of strange there wasn't a little more emotion documented in the first flight. I screamed like a little girl watching an experienced pilot take off my homebuilt plane on it's first flight. Wifey screamed like a little boy, too. Great video! Well edited, great filming, and slick. Really stands out above a lot of content out here. Subscribed...
Also, it's a freakin jet! Can't imagine the thrill of strapping that on! Just stupid cool what you have done. Can't imagine all the work involved to get this beauty to this point.
Matt. Nice job. I've been watching for many years and this has to be top 3. Keep them coming my friend.
Yes I have to say this and his DC-3 trip to Greenland are at the top
awesome video! love the outside videos when the plane starts and lands. also the drone videos.. perfect!
This might be the coolest thing I have ever seen on RUclips. What an amazing project come to fruition. Absolutely brilliant. Are we going to talk about how perfect the first test landing was? It was so smooth, I almost slipped out of my chair.
Like butter
Living the life my man! Awesome stuff! Thanks.
Hell Yes. I've been waiting for this episode! Fantastic cinematography as always, I'm always on the edge of my seat, Matt. Keep it up!
Beautiful plane guys congratulations! Enjoy your very own L39!
What a great pilot for taking the jet out for the checkout of the L 39. A true professional with clear safety parameters in mind to operate such a high-performance aircraft. Seems like a great job, if you are military-trained with a flying high-performance jet background to do such a test job.
...
That 360 cockpit camera was fantastic and was perfectly edited. 👍
It's a military jet trainer. High performance, a fun machine with a nice envelope, but not what I'd call a fighter.
Awesome video and beautiful plane, thanks.
Living the dream and taking us all along for the flight.
Well done guys, awesome photography
Excellent editing, Matt! It's a beautiful bird!
Awesome, just awesome! Congratulations!
That is a thing of beauty..... Congrats!!
Simply awesome! Just awesome!!! Love it!
Love it I could only ever dream of flying such a beautiful bird
Super excited for the next vid in the series!
Idky this channel was recommended but I think your about to blow up even more because I watched every minute and your editing and content is very very interesting especially since your not in military and your just normal folk like us. Thanks for entertaining me. Look forward to next one. Until then I’ll go back and watch from start
Normal folk like us except a lot more money.
In the previous video I realized why you went to be trained in the l-39. Tremendous achievement Matt. Congratulations to you and your partner. Be safe.
Can’t wait to see you takin this baby up for a spin Matt! I hope to see some night shots in the cockpit eventually on one of your upcoming videos to show off those amazing red illumination lights in action!
Great video - beautiful jet
Top notch editing and camera work!
Excellent film. The editing of the 360- camera footage in the cockpit was especially good - constantly changing focus with the test pilot!
Are you able to separate the intercom and radio feeds to the audio? I was trying to listen to your conversation with Charlie but there was constant chatter on the radio.
Thats amazing! Hell yes!
That looks SO FUN!
Very well done,awsome camera work
very professional video. loved it
Excellent video, thanks!
What seriously excellent production value
Sitting on my couch watching this video with the amount of excitement I’ve got is the most manly thing I’ve done all week.
Great video congrats
I really enjoyed this one!
Awesome job thank you for sharing your love and talents with everyone brother 🙏❤👍🤙🇺🇸🇺🇸
Lovely plane cinematography is proper thanks for sharing all the best cheers
🥰
even from my point of view, not working, no money, no plane but happy, this is quite an exciting moment when a pile of parts out of a container takes to the air converting fuel to noise, very good effort
Damn good editing while he's in the cockpit firing it up.
Congrats!🎉
You got a great guy there....V-12 is awesome!
Good stuff . Fly that thing it must not just stand around!
How cool is that!!
Game changer for your channel.
The camera work is so friggen good, man
Awesome stuff!
Wow I’m on flight radar now watch you fly. 28000 feet right now. Love it! 🫡
Great Vid!!!
Congrats!
A bit bittersweet to see how easy is to buy, assemble and fly this nice Czech(oslowakian) jet trainer as L-39 Albatros is. Especially, when you live 30 miles eastern from LKVO (Vodochody, the production factory). Here in CZ in overregulated EASA it is almost impossible. Know what i'm talking about, I own plane by myself (L-40 MetaSokol)
Good luck!
Man this guy is the most super slick test pilot I’ve seen, man envy right here!!!!
Oh my goodness... lol.. Hilarious
freaking awesome!! i need one of those.
Join the queue!
Not sure if you do all your own editing, Matty, but well done. Some really cool edit effects and angles. Outdone yourself this time.
Good editing job on this video. Neat to see a professional test pilot doing his job. Nice looking airplane!
That's cool Matt !!! That's not chasing a dream, that's catching a dream !! Todd
Just such an elegant plane. I wish I could fly one.
Nice videography and editing
Im excited for the next episode
You punched a hole in the clouds with that new fast dart you have there. 😅
Made it rain!! Great job Gang. Looks like a fun one to fly. Good luck!
💪💪🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸⚔️🙏
Beautiful bird!
Had to watch it again 👍👍👍
Just awesome 👍👍👍
i love all these videos
Awesome!
Great montage leading up to 6 minute mark 👍🏻😀
One of the best series on youtube i have ever seen!
We demand long form L39 Comment ASAP! Love it Matt.
That’s an awesome plane
How cool! Mike Lloyd, the guy who signed off in the logbook is the maintenance guy at my home airport
That wasn't a test flight. That was a joy ride!
Awesome just awesome Matt. Bravo Zulu
Got to see one of those touch down at our University. What a machine!
AWSOME !!!
That's pretty wild, from container to tarmac..
Cause we are the best
Flying is one of the coolest things humans have ever done. I hope to do this one day (:
