- Hello fellow Aviators! This one is a little different. I take you through the entire flight plane process for a flight from KDTN (Shreveport Downtown) to KDTO (Denton, TX). Including how to choose an arrival. Will we get the one the filed? If you want to skip the flight plan portion, jump ahead to the 26 minute mark for the flight. Thanks for coming along!

I really like the way you are explaining and narrating. Please continue.
Will do! Thanks for coming along!
Really appreciated the 1st half of the video going through planning, clearance delivery and taxi! Nice to not have to worry about an alternate 🙂
@@quantumjim45 glad you enjoyed the first half. I appreciate you watching.
This was a really good video. I’ve seen others where they’ve talked about filing IFR flight plans using ForeFlight, and using past app approved routes. But this is the first time I ever saw somebody do it in real time. Plus, it was cool to see the actual flight planning, filing, and then subsequent flight using Syd flight plan. this is great Contant for those of us who are beginning to embark upon our own training. Take care, and thanks again!
Thanks! This is great feedback.
Very good video!!!!
This is the best start to finish IFR flight I’ve ever seen on RUclips
Keep it up!
Wow, that’s humbling, thank you for watching.
Keep it up! You are one of the most articulate communicators that I've heard. I appreciate your attention to detail and insight. I am a follower. Thank you.
@@johneshoffnerjr9823 thanks! I appreciate you coming along.
Really like how you explain things!! Thank you sir!
Great flight. Thanks for taking us along on the adventure.
It’s always a pleasure taking you along with me!
This is beautiful. Aviation safety at its best right here 😊 Keep them coming
Thanks! Look for my Departure video next.
Thanks for sharing your real world setup and arrival issues.
Thanks for coming along. If you watch the SID video, let me know which you preferred.
In the throes of learning IFR flight, how to work Foreflight and a GTN750 so this was very useful. Keep ‘em coming!
@@alangarrett1181 thanks! Will do!
Great video. Learned a lot from you! Thanks for that!
You are welcome, thanks for coming along.
Keep it up. Thanks for the detailed flight prep work.
The next flight does not have the same level of preflight detail, let me know which you prefer.
Very good, articulate explanation.
Thanks! I am glad my Arkansas-ese didn’t get in the way!
@@TheFlyingSalesman No, it’s very good but being from a little further south than you (Lafayette), I’m not much of an accent judge ha.
@@MarionBlair lol! Have you heard of the gulf south aviation seminar?
Nicely done. Thank you
Glad you came along!
As someone who is starting IFR this August, I really enjoyed your content and breakdowns of situational awareness and procedures. Fantastic content!
Thanks! I am working on another IFR video that will drop this Sunday afternoon. Check it out...
What a great video and well executed flight. Good advice to fly stabilized in your own style. This was very helpful. Thank you for sharing this with us.
I appreciate you checking it out!
great video
@@DCSSicario thanks!
Thank you so much! I appreciate the first part.
Thanks so much!
I enjoyed the explanation. Watching from Vancouver.
@@emylrmm thanks, I am going to continue to include as much detail as I can.
I really love your video!
I am glad you enjoyed it!
Good stuff 👏 ifr student here, and really good on explaining the details!!
Glad it was helpful!
Great job, entertaining and informative
Thanks, I appreciate you coming along for the flight.
Excellent
Thank you so much 😀
Just did my instrument and commercial at DTO. Grew up flying in Houston and thought that was busy airspace but Denton is the real deal.
I have seen some crazy busy things at KDTO!
Absolutely excellent….well done. Showing it how it is…appreciate you taking the time to put together this very detailed IFR flight example.
Thank you very much! I will keep it coming.
Love your videos. I’m a new pilot and learn a ton
@@shamshuddinvirani4541 that’s perfect! Thanks for coming along.
Obtained my PPL at KDTO and now working on my instrument training. Awesome video!
Thanks! I bet you have some stories to tell about flying there!
Dry? I don't think so. The first half of the video (flight briefing and planning) was so informative and the rest was so useful too. Thank you so much for sharing all these details!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video! Very informational. Thank you
Thank you for coming along!
Really enjoyed your video to Denton,TX. Your commentary was super. I subscribed to your channel after enjoying your video. Very few pilots provide the insight into flying IFR that you did in your video. The landing was a A GREASER as they say!
@@jameswikstrom4174 thank you. I am glad you are enjoying them. I will do more instrument flights after Oshkosh.
Nicely done! So glad I found your channel.
Welcome aboard!
Really great video! Thank you so much
Thank you for coming along!
really educational and informative video, I hope to be doing this for my own one day!
The best time to start was 10 years ago, the second best time is today! Good Luck!
I love the details! Keep bringing the learning for us, I’m grateful! Thank you
Thanks!
Great video it was like I was flying with you
Glad to hear it!
Agreed with the top comment - awesome to see the whole process start to finish. Hope your channel blows up - this is great content sir.
Thanks! I appreciate you coming along!
Wow...great content and so helpful to the community! Thanks for all the work involved in making these videos!
Thank you, is there anything you would like to see covered?
Great video. I only do it in MS Flight Sim but very informative.
@@billadams8795 I have a lot of viewers that are sim pilots and sim controllers. You are in great company!
Brilliant Video 👍😁
Thanks! I appreciate you coming along for the ride.
Great video-love the start to finish content and narration of your thought process during the planning and multiple phases of flight
Thanks, I appreciate the feedback and you coming along.
just started my IFR training, this was very helpful to me! Took me three times to get the clearance copied!
That was a great video
Thanks! The SID video goes live at 3 pm cst time today if you are interested.
Ive been watching you recently and was following along when I heard myself on your video. Bonanza 7476P. Was headed to Longview to drop off a friend. 😂. Keep up the videos!
No way! That's really cool. It's a small world (especially aviation)
Great video!
Thanks! I appreciate you coming along!
Very good video. When you’re learning IFR, it’s not until the end that you get the idea of what a real IFR flight will be like.
I agree with you. I believe one of the most dangerous aspects of Instrument flight is that real world experience is usually dramatically different than training. And often, real world IMC experience does not happen as often as it needs to in order to stay proficient. For pilots with IRs, I believe constant training and application of those skills is essential.
Matt, what a informative video , one of the best I've seen for a start to finish flight . It is as if I was doing it I was doing it myself. You are a consummate professional, you do such a great job. Keep the great videos coming .😊
Thank you sir!
Just stumbled on your channel and about to start my IFR training. Great video!
That's great! Let me know if there is something you want to see in real time, I will try to get it on video.
Nicely done. I do the same as you and file direct usually and expect a STAR into any one of those airports in the DFW airspace. I will also choose a suggested route too from time to time. It’s nice that Foreflight will give you an updated route expected so you’re ready to copy form clearance. I am in a pre-buy with a T210N - will have to touch base, maybe at OSH.
Awesome! Come by the booth, Hangar A. I have had the assigned route be different than the expected route as well.
If I’m heading towards buildup, I usually ask the controller to vector me a little bit around the weather before I get into unknown turbulence. One other thing, flying with flaps is drag. If you don’t need them, don’t use them. Fuel is expensive enough without having to impose more drag on the aircraft.
Deviations left and right are always helpful. Thanks for coming along!
Starting my instrument train in a few month and this was SO HELPFUL!!! Thanks for the coverage of preflight and planing in a practical setting.
Awesome, The next video will be the SID, I hope you find it helpful too.
Great video. I’m getting back into ifr flying and have a new gtn650xi in my Cherokee. I also use fore flight. This really helps.
That's great! The SID coming out of KDTO will drop Sunday afternoon.
🎉 I’m the 1k follower! I really like your videos they are very informative and educational! Keep doing it
THANK YOU VERY MUCH! WOOHOO!
Currently working on getting my instrument rating. This was awesome to watch your process. Thanks for sharing!
That’s great! Next week I will do the SID back out. I hope you check it out.
I'm new to foreflight so it's all new to me so I appreciate it, will be watching again, great reference, appreciate you! Good stuff, hope comments help you, happy Father's Day
Thanks! Not sure either but I know it doesn’t hurt.
I've got my IR ride coming up soon and have been scrounging the internet for as many IFR flight videos I can find so I can absorb as much real world IFR information as possible and this video was a perfect example of that! Love the content!
Thanks! The SID will be in the next video.
This was absolutely excellent. Love this, again absolute excellent example of real world planning, preparing and flying IFR. You should do another when you have actual weather to give another example in the soup.
I have two other videos with IMC but there is less banter. Check them out in my channel and let me know what you think.
I’m about to start the IFR training and just finished reading the Instrument Handbook. This IFR flying video helps me understand the full flow. What a timing! 👏 👍
Stay tuned, the SID, Standard Instrument Departure will be in the next video.
This was fantastic, I haven’t been up in about a month which is a lot for me since I’ve graduated to private, and with now getting on instrument your input and precision with checks and departure/approach was on point. Thank you for sharing and hope to come along for more of these for sure sir! @travelingchefmark
Those are very kind words. Thanks!
nice video
Thank you!
As a 747 pilot all the details are critical to a safe flight. Thank you for making the video as most people don't know how long it takes before we are ready to even move the airplane.
747! That’s awesome. Thank you for coming along, safe flight(s) -TFS
@@TheFlyingSalesman 747 cargo...it's my dream job. Our weather briefings are more complicated just because it's harder to predict the weather 10hrs later in another country.
@@747FoSophie I bet they are, I have never thought about that. I bet you are a master at all the weather resources!
@@TheFlyingSalesman When you have two to more pilots cross checking everything it does seem easier.
actually, i had to replay it six times to get it all.......thanks again!
Don’t sweat it, it gets easier. Getting the clearance WRITTEN down and read back properly is the second most important part. The most critical is clearly understanding it. Do Not taxi until you have it written correctly and you know clearly what each step is. Blue skies fellow Aviator! -TFS
Loved this preflight detail! Great video! Curious about the beginning when you said you’d be leaving at 10:10. Is that when ATC should expect you to take off? And what happens if that time is incorrect? (I noticed we went past that with all the explanations)
Great landing! I kept thinking you were already on the ground. 😂
I am looking for a link to answer your question, I THINK, IFR flight plans are valid 15 min prior to departure until 2 hours after. I am going to reach out to the real pros and get you a definitive answer. STANDBY…
When you retire, you might want to consider fliight instruction.
@@emylrmm thanks!
I'm just getting recurrent after years of airline flying. This DIY type IFR is completely different in that almost all the planning was done by the company dispatch. We just flew the plan as filed. Also, using Foreflight in new to me, so this video was quite helpful. I followed along with your planning on my iPad. i sure wish they'd find a better way of locating and deciphering NOTAMS that might affect a flight. The current system is really lacking. Thanks for the very informative video and step-by-step process.
You are welcome and thanks for the feedback. There are two convenient places to find Notams- one is from the map page, on the FPL or flightplan function, when connected to the internet there will be an exclamation point next to each airport if it has notams. The other is to send the flight plan to “flights”and on the top right there is a “messages” button that will detail notams. Hope this helps and blue skies! -TFS
@@TheFlyingSalesman Roger all, and thanks! BTW, you remind me a lot of a friend of mine, Jon "Jughead" Counsell, also a RUclipsr. I thought that you were he when i found your video. Jon is a (famous) ex-F-15 driver and fellow member of the Patriots Jet Team.
@@Ed-hz2um He must be a handsome fella! Glad you are getting back in the saddle and let me know if you will be at Oshkosh, I will be there all week in Hangar A, so stop by if you will make it.
@@TheFlyingSalesman Sorry, Matt. I can't make it (again) this year. I'd love to meet up with you for a chat. One of these years, our Patriots Jet Team will make it to OSK, and I'll likely be there.
Great video, really like the flight planning process and using some of Foreflight's told. New to your channel, and I like what I see! May I suggest not saying "for" before your tail number, can be confused with "four." I teach all my students to avoid ambiguity. However, the law of primacy says it will be a difficult change if you were to want to change your radio call structure.
I understand where you are coming from and I have been working on this, I have a lot of years of these habits I am working to break. Thanks for coming along and checking out my channel!
Thanks for the great content, really helped me a lot. IS it possible for you to make a video regarding the use of GPS. From before the flight and during the flight. I always have some trouble setting up the gps. Regardless keep up the great content!!!
@@leohsieh4873 you bet! Thanks for coming along!
Correction: typo! GNX375
Thanks for sharing, you based out of Shreveport? My old stomping grounds, sarepta, Springhill, Texarkana and Longview
If you ever in Nashville tn give me a holler
Tailwinds!
That's it! Thanks, It has been a while since I have been up that way. Great area!
Sounds like the stall warning on takeoff. But I know it’s noise from the radio interference on the engine. Lol
Yes sir, I have to get the diodes checked on my alternator. I hope it wasn't too distracting for you. Thanks for coming along! -TFS
Great to see a fellow 210 driver out there! Why don’t you use the glide ring and nearest function on your 750?
I like running the nearest airports on the 430, as for the glide ring, I will look into it.
@@TheFlyingSalesman I run duel 750’s in my bird with the bottom unit displaying the flight plan. That way when ATC gives me a change it’s quickly accessible. With the glide ring as well as the nearest airport being pointed at on the top unit it’s the best of both worlds. My missions are on the west coast so I am over mountains a lot it’s good piece of mind having that situational awareness. Thanks for the video, the 210 is without a doubt one of the best IFR machines out there. I do agree having the airplane set up and configured early is the secret to a stable and successful approach. Are you on any of the 210 FB groups?
@@jackbrainassociates8806 yes sir. Cessna 210 Owners and Pilots and Cessna 210. As well C-172, Airplanes and coffee and bonanza. We have products for most aircraft so I try to check in periodically and see what people are talking about.
What mount are you using for the phone on the dashboard? It looks like a cool camera setup!
It is a cheap dash cam mount. I cannot really recommend it because it is plastic and I keep having to tighten. I am betting it will strip out soon.
If you liked the more direct route to the north, why not ask for it? FF showed requested route and expected route, does that mean you can put in a desired route and acceptable/expected alternate route, in case your primary choice isn’t available? Also, does FF show when a flight plan is approved? If not, how do you know how long to wait before calling for IFR clearance? Almost landed on the 2000-ft/ers 😉
I filed the REEKO3 because all of the others had only been approved 1 time. My hypothesis was I was not going to get what I filed and I did not want to skew the test by picking an obviously obscure route. I did not ask for alternate routing to see how this played out. I do not normally ask for big changes to assigned routes. I will ask to skip a waypoint just to shorten the flight a little bit. FF gives you and “acknowledgement” that it was filed. Flight plans are not approved until they are assigned by arc. Flight plans are active and waiting on you 15 min prior to departure and 2 hours after.
KDTO! man should have gone to KADS!!!
I hit them all, gotta turn over all the rocks!
@@TheFlyingSalesman Just 1 of the reasons your the best in the business!
Why are we putting down flaps in cruise? Can't we just pull power?
I use flaps as speed brakes in descent because to slow from descent speeds to flap speed then gear speed takes a big power or reduction or too long to bleed off the speed. Once I was in the terminal area, I left the flaps up to avoid configuration changes. It’s not a big deal VMC but IMC I avoid it and I was practicing as though I was IMC.
As an IFR student pilot, could you have simply “Bluetooth’ed” the flight plan (and subsequently any changes en route) from your iPad in ForeFlight to the GTN750?
This would ensure to limit possible input mistakes during mechanical transport of the electronic flight plan. I use a GNX175, which appears to be very similar to the 750 (just a smaller screen), and it allows me to do that. Also, my iPad screen is bigger, so it is easier for me to use and see. What are your thoughts?
Do you have an email address? Maybe list it in your bio section.
@@drewlomax9980 My Garmin install does not support bluetooth and you are not wrong about transferring the flight plans. My email is info@theflyingsalesman.com.
I really like the way you are explaining and narrating. Please continue
@@paulfleming7429 you got it!
