    I fly the Kodiak every day and love it. That one looks a bit more luxurious than mine though. 😋

    Hello Steveo1kinevo, I am from Brazil and had the opportunity to meet you at the 2018 Sun'nFun (Saturday, April 14th - ForeFlight Display). Thank you very much for the attention and courtesy... It was such an incredible experience being with you! Very best regards!

    Mindy is outstanding on the radios! As a retired Textron guy, I’m pleased that she is with the company

    Mindy is one of the best I’ve heard on the radio, and I’ve been flying for over 40 years!

      ...except "in the box" is a tired old cliche and might appear "cool" to some but it is a silly euphemism.

      Easy: she’s one girl in 1000 men and she does this for a living working for Cessna. You could say that about 80% of men, too

      It is better but unfortunately, standard ICAO phraseology is poorly used. Example, we don t say ready to go to a tower but holding point rwy xx ready for departure.

    The kodiak looks like a flying bathtub, but it’s got the coolest engine startup noise of any airplane I’ve heard thus far

    "Captain Mindy" is officially hooked, Steveo. Not only has she enjoyed the blue waters of the Bahamian islands, but you brought her along to Sun & Fun too! Nevermind her starting her own VLOG. I see her totally thrilling prospective aircraft owners to jump into a Cessna/Baron/Bonanza and see the thrill of flying in and out of Florida and the adjacent islands.

  • @wingman358
    @wingman358 5 лет назад +5

    Steveo, I love hearing the explanations you give as you're flying (like the bypass function of the inertial separator). Super helpful to aspiring pilots like myself.

    You had one of the best Co-Pilot's in the business handling the radio. She responded to every call without hesitation. I hope both of you had a great time at Sun N' Fun. I saw several videos and it looked like a great event for a pilot to attend.I am still in love with the Cirrus Vision Jet. It just looks so cool and single pilot operated!

    Pilot RUclips is one of the best RUclipss. Flying through the clouds in HD, are you kidding me?
    I dont know anything about aviation but this is fun, that plane looks really good, plus, Mindy's radio work is accidental ASMR.
    Hopefully this will get more young people interested in flying.
    Cheers.

    I love old flight attendents who work past retirement. I was on a puddle jumper around Louisville and as we are going through a rough patch she tells us not to worry. That we are heading toward calm. Then she straps into her diagonal seat behind me and I could hear her say to herself “ yeah, wait till they see what’s coming up next”. WORST turbulence in my life. I still have to laugh.

  • @niceguy2171
    @niceguy2171 6 лет назад +19

    Nice flight up to the Sun n Fun, although those storms could have waited for another day. And it's a good thing you got in there early, as later it gets absolutely crazy flying into it, with planes spaced out like cars on the freeway! And for GA, landing on taxiways with sharp turns into the downwind..but it's always a great time there, even if I did miss this yrs. show. Capt. Mindy is a great rep for them, and she will do well if she does start her own channel.
    Starting to fall for those Kodiaks, as everything I hear about them is positive, and got to love that roominess.
