These are the type of videos I hope are making a difference in aviation enthusiasm (Steveo, Swayne, MrAviation, Matt, etc). The GA has been on a decline far too long, so maybe videos like these can get younger pilots engaged and in the cockpit. My personal opinion is that this is the best medium to generate that interest with today's tech engaged kids/young adults. Gone are the days of standing at the airport fence, dreaming about flight. Keep up the good work Matt!
One thing that decreases flying in europe is that a flying hours costs like at least 175$ wet + with your normal PPL license you don't get night VFR included so you can add another 6-8k$ to the already horrendous cost of getting the PPL itself
I used to fly charter around the bahamas. To fly VFR you dont really need to talk to nassau as long as you stay either outside of their oddly shaped control area, or under 1200ft. You can squawk VFR everywhere you go really. Also the flight plan that they say you need isnt really an issue either. Its just like in the US with a vfr flight plan (you can either have one or not). All nassau normally wants is your point of departure and plane type and they will always give you a code unless they are insanely busy, which doesnt happen often. Awesome video!
Behind every successful man is an amazed woman, I can tell by the way Rachel looks at you! That's the way we do the Bahamas, low key, no 5 star crap, you visited the real Bahamas, the people really make the island what it is. Tried doing the islands the high-dollar route and it was stuffy, uppity and boring, walking down a road in the islands you meet amazing people.
Probably! But we'd all done this before, so it was really just a refresher, and we were a little rushed on the ground so the air seemed like a more attentive environment
Attention whiners. Yes, flying is expensive. So is golf, fishing, and say, the hot rod hobby. I started flying in 1973 (I was about 21), and didn't get my license until I was about 28. But I got it. 1 stinking hour at a time. I remember the first time I was outraged at what someone had spent on their hot rod. The guy was just a blue collar machinist, and in about 1975 his Nomad made the cover of Hot Rod Magazine (or some such). He said he had spent more than $40,000 on the car, and he did a lot of the work himself! $40K in 1975 would be about $186K, today. He was not unusual. How much is a set of 28" wheels and tires? A really nice custom paint job can easily cost $10-$20K. Just a chromed out engine compartment can set you back $5,000. A really strong custom engine may easily cost $15-$25K and more. None of this takes into account the cost of the car you are customizing. A pos Mustang convertible that needs everything can cost $10K or more. If you are working, you can find the money, if you want it badly enough. If you can't... work harder.
@@fiyaball2175 LOL, nice. Ya, there are ways to fish for cheap. Hey, there are ways to fly for cheap too.... but they don't involve glass-panel Bonanza's :)
Sweet video. . .Most truly don't realize the awesome appeal the Bahamas has for the general aviation community. It is truly appealing. I can't count the numerous times I spent island hopping. . .even sleeping on the beach or in the plane and then flying back to the mainland. It's awesome. Twas increasingly appealing just how much you knew about the Cape. Spent 15 years with USA before the shuttle program ended and I went a different direction. Spent countless hours in the VAB. . .on the pad. . .and PTT to the MCC.
Colin,s dad here. Your video reminded me of my first visit to Rock Sound Eleuthera back in 1978 when I flew several friends on a tour of the islands. loved it, especialy a restaurant on North end in the back of a little bat, great lobster appetizer and outstanding food all around. The Rock Sound International Airplane Patch was much smaller and was straight in from the water. the club was nice and was one of the best islands to visit. (Get some Eluthera Pineapple Rum, Dino-Mite...). I had a Cessna Stationair and a Beech Queen Air (Pre King Air, Recip engines rather than TurboProp.). I miss flying dreadfully.
That's some fancy avionics. I flew to Nassau with some buddies when I was in college in my V Tail Bonanaza. All we had back then was LORAN (didn't work more than 50 miles off shore) and VOR's. Brings back memories...thanks for sharing!
I did all my primary training at EQY. I now live on the other side of the country, but it made me smile to see you coming over the church and quarry to 23 on such a pretty day. Great video!
Hi Matt. Finally the great adventure video is here. Awesome. Was eagerly awaiting this. Wish it was longer. Great adventure and a great video once again
I don't think I'd ever be able to fly across the Bahamas in a single engine airplane, my anxiety just wouldn't allow for it... But I think with your calming demeanor and personality, you'd probably be the only person I'd be comfortable with, lol. Great video, Matt!
Terrific video! The production value is getting higher with each video. Love the convenience of GA. Just flew my family from KOWD to N98 in Northern Michigan. I was minutes from my destination versus flying commercial in to a larger airport...
Great video. Good flight. I am actually from San Salvador,Bahamas. I was very surprised to see that island on your destination list. Keep visiting and hope it gets better every visit. Safe flying.
Matt, I really enjoy following your channel and this video is especially outstanding! We used to own a Bonanza and flew all around Europe with it - your videos bring back a lot of good memories :-) And you are a great inspiration to the aviation community! Always fly safe!
There's no such thing as air based. He saw that dingy and wanted to know if they were sailing or land based. I.e. if they knew what they were doing, or were land based.
Absolutely amazing video Sir, I felt like I was living it with you. And that DC3 looked awesome! Shame here in UK even as a 26yr old I can only afford to fly microlights. Not to mention the Airspace here in the UK is enough to keep anyone on their toes. Good Luck with futures trips man and I look forward to seeing more videos like this ;-)
Thanks for sharing ... wonderful views ... brilliantly edited ... please keep it rolling ... love it. Hey one thing, you might try to listen to a weak radio signal and shortly turn the ignition off, since I believe most of the noise is coming from your ignition circuit ... you may look for shielded high voltage cables to fix this ... but be aware that a moist shielded ignition cable is more prone to fail if the isolation has tiny cracks.
Great video Matt, what a cool trip!! Recently became a pilot and hoping for some trips like that In the near future! Safe skies and keep the videos coming, awesome content!
Hahaha he gave you an altimeter setting that was different from standard then said to maintain FL80, how confusing was that. Those exuma cays though; we had a nightmare of a time there this year... told Becki we’re gonna go back flying ourselves though 🚁🚁🚁
Haha right?! And then I laid it out for him, still couldn't figure out what he wanted... You should definitely do that. Wonder what kind of rules they have around landing on beaches and random tiny islands and stuff, could probably find some places you'd have completely to yourself.
Great video Matt, love the channel. The Bahamas are on my bucket list, hopefully I'll combine it with a trip to Fun 'n Sun next year. Charlotte-Monroe (KEQY) is my home airport! Nice to see it show up in the video.
Thanks to your channel, I developed an interest in airplanes! But it's a little frustrating trying to find good resources for learning since I'm a teenager with zero knowledge. Hopefully I will gain more knowledge about it in the future.
Sweet video Matt! .. I was station throughout the Caribbeans while in the Navy ... One never gets tired of those beautiful waters ... Really enjoyed the ride along 😎😎
I discovered your channel last week and I think that you're my favorite aviation channel on youtube. I obviously watch the big channels in aviation, but you bring a chill vibe to the cockpit that calms people and reassures them that general aviation is not rocket science and is actually very very fun. I was surprised to see you fly out of Lawrence a lot !!! I fly out of Plum Island airport and have been to Lawerence too many times to count. I have a few videos on my channel of me flying out to Concord, Portland, and around Plum Island back when I was training, but my GoPro broke once I got my PPL (back in 2015) Since then I've done many flights with friends, like some of your videos, but I haven't gotten IFR yet, or gone the distance you have gone in some of your videos, and have definitely never even touched class B airspace. You're cool, calm, and collected, and that's unique in the community of pilots on youtube. I'm not sure if there would be any way to meet up and go for a flight, considering Lawerence is a 10 minute flight from me, but if there ever was it would be really fun to pick your brain.
Thanks man, that means a lot, really happy you like them! Are you going to Oshkosh? I'll probably be doing a couple events there, might be a good chance to meet up.
Wasn't planning on it, but my instructors and a couple of the guys from 2B2 go there each year. It's always enticing to go, I'm sure I will one of these upcoming years. Keep it up dog.
The water are so blue and the DC3 site is awesome!!! But that Rock Sound International Airport looks a bit sketchy hahaha... and FL080, 8000, FL080... lol... anyway, nice video as always! good work!
Great Video, Geezer alert: We did the exact same thing when we were in our early twenties. flew out to the Bahamas for several days, scuba dived, did a shark feeding frenzy. We also dove on a drug plane that was just off the coast. We located it from the air first. Did it in a Saratoga. Famous quote after landing, " How come we are the only single engine aircraft here?"
Lol there is plenty of enthusiasm among young people. However, a plane like your flying is probably 300,000 dollars. Fuel is 5 dollars a gallon, and a bonanza burns it a rate of 15 gallons per hour. That is why there is a decline in general aviation. Such a huge cost for what is pretty much just having fun.
Utica VOR! That antenna is just outside Frankfort Highlands Airport (6B4). They have RC air shows there. Not as awesome as Oshkosh, but fun none the less.
Awesome video! I've spent time flying around the Florida Keys, but not the Bahamas unfortunately. It seems like flying VFR is a little different over there than the states, what was the procedure for flying VFR in the Bahamas?
This was really great, thanks! Made me check the distances from the best Northern European beaches to the nearest airfields. That will be next summer, though; before that, there's going to be winter flying over snow covered lakes & forests. :) Also, kept waiting to see steveo1kinevo's C208 on one of the aprons...
Note to photographers using professional gear... Be sure to completely turn off any type of image stabilization (in camera body or even for lenses) when flying. Somehow the vibration of the plane and other factors can easily cause most any type of image stabilization to fail within a rather short amount of time. I've already seen it happen with numerous camera types/names such as; Nikon, Canon, Sony, Sigma, etc... It can easily be one of the most expensive items to repair (outside of the sensor itself), and is an item never covered by a warranty.
Another great video Matt. Thanks for taking the time to do this. BTW, if you don't mind my asking, what was the fuel cost on this trip and did you have any landing/airport "fees" at any of the airports?
These are the type of videos I hope are making a difference in aviation enthusiasm (Steveo, Swayne, MrAviation, Matt, etc). The GA has been on a decline far too long, so maybe videos like these can get younger pilots engaged and in the cockpit. My personal opinion is that this is the best medium to generate that interest with today's tech engaged kids/young adults. Gone are the days of standing at the airport fence, dreaming about flight. Keep up the good work Matt!
That's my hope too! Happy you enjoy them
Brian Moeller couldn't of said it better sir!
Brian Moeller I only can dream of flying with Xplane11 flight simulator, as real as aviation can get when used with oculus rift!
One thing that decreases flying in europe is that a flying hours costs like at least 175$ wet + with your normal PPL license you don't get night VFR included so you can add another 6-8k$ to the already horrendous cost of getting the PPL itself
That's not as real as it can get :)
You're living my BUCKET LIST at half my age! May you always have altitude, airspeed and options! Kudos.
I have never seen a better flight film on youtube like this awesome Matt.
Thanks, that means a lot!
I used to fly charter around the bahamas. To fly VFR you dont really need to talk to nassau as long as you stay either outside of their oddly shaped control area, or under 1200ft. You can squawk VFR everywhere you go really. Also the flight plan that they say you need isnt really an issue either. Its just like in the US with a vfr flight plan (you can either have one or not). All nassau normally wants is your point of departure and plane type and they will always give you a code unless they are insanely busy, which doesnt happen often.
Awesome video!
Yeah, the problem was that our entire route fell within their control area...and they were busy...
Behind every successful man is an amazed woman, I can tell by the way Rachel looks at you! That's the way we do the Bahamas, low key, no 5 star crap, you visited the real Bahamas, the people really make the island what it is. Tried doing the islands the high-dollar route and it was stuffy, uppity and boring, walking down a road in the islands you meet amazing people.
Wouldn't the emergency briefing best be done before on the ground
Best to give the briefing right before impact! :)
Probably! But we'd all done this before, so it was really just a refresher, and we were a little rushed on the ground so the air seemed like a more attentive environment
alibragge1986 I was a little more concerned w deciding to fly 700AGL (water level). If anything had gone wrong not a lot of time.......
Do NOT forget to add "DO NOT inflate vest or raft before you and it are OUTSIDE of the aircraft.".
On the upside, less tine for the Pax to flip out.
Attention whiners. Yes, flying is expensive. So is golf, fishing, and say, the hot rod hobby. I started flying in 1973 (I was about 21), and didn't get my license until I was about 28. But I got it. 1 stinking hour at a time.
I remember the first time I was outraged at what someone had spent on their hot rod. The guy was just a blue collar machinist, and in about 1975 his Nomad made the cover of Hot Rod Magazine (or some such). He said he had spent more than $40,000 on the car, and he did a lot of the work himself! $40K in 1975 would be about $186K, today.
He was not unusual.
How much is a set of 28" wheels and tires? A really nice custom paint job can easily cost $10-$20K. Just a chromed out engine compartment can set you back $5,000. A really strong custom engine may easily cost $15-$25K and more. None of this takes into account the cost of the car you are customizing. A pos Mustang convertible that needs everything can cost $10K or more.
If you are working, you can find the money, if you want it badly enough. If you can't... work harder.
Lmao like fishing or golfing, yes just like apples taste like oranges, good call
Great videos though no doubt
Don't forget cycling where a set of race wheels can set you back $3,500 for 13,000 machine/thats no motor!
Fishing is not expensive at all, i fish very regularly and the only costs I incur is gas, bait and toll.
@@fiyaball2175 LOL, nice. Ya, there are ways to fish for cheap. Hey, there are ways to fly for cheap too.... but they don't involve glass-panel Bonanza's :)
Beautiful view, good music and awesome time!

These are some of the best videos on YT. I wish I had gotten into flying when I was younger. Great work Matt.
you can't do a better job of showing what general avaition is all about, great job and thanks for sharing!
OMG this is the pilot's paradise....
Beautiful scenery, pretty girl, and good friends. Thanks for bringing this experience to us!
It's always fun to watch the flight, but really enjoyed the "on land" scenes too! Looked like a lot of fun, little jealous here! Safe travels.
Thanks, it was! Happy you liked it, just glad I can share it with you guys

Thanks man, glad you liked it! Both of those (ruclips.net/video/85pTgSCSINM/видео.html) were really hard to cut down to 20 minutes
Great video Matt! Looks like you guys had an awesome time! Thanks for the upload!
Thanks! We did, just happy to share it with you guys!
I don't think I'd ever be able to fly across the Bahamas in a single engine airplane, my anxiety just wouldn't allow for it... But I think with your calming demeanor and personality, you'd probably be the only person I'd be comfortable with, lol. Great video, Matt!
I love your videos, I've been binge watching them over the last few days lol. This video is my favorite!
Fantasy in real life. Thanks for sharing Matt! Beautiful Video. I appreciate the hard work and time it took you to put your video out there.
These are great videos! Very professional production. Keep up the good work!
Your videos are not only entertaining but educxational. Thank you for sharing them.

The amount of effort put into these videos show. You deserve many more subscribers
At 12:47 there’s a beechjet 400 N68GS parked next to your plane that is based at Signature in Frederick, Maryland where I work. Very cool
When he said "So you're land based?" The correct response was "No, we're Air based." Great video sir!
Thanks, solid point!
Brotherhood of navigators.
There's no such thing as air based. He saw that dingy and wanted to know if they were sailing or land based. I.e. if they knew what they were doing, or were land based.
Unbelievably well done video! Really enjoyed watching this and all your other videos.
Absolutely amazing video Sir, I felt like I was living it with you. And that DC3 looked awesome!
Shame here in UK even as a 26yr old I can only afford to fly microlights. Not to mention the Airspace here in the UK is enough to keep anyone on their toes. Good Luck with futures trips man and I look forward to seeing more videos like this ;-)
Man your landings are amazing. Front wheel off and put down smoothly. Amazing videos overall. Keep it flying.
A+ video, really captures the island feel, and the fun of island hopping!
North county airport is my home airport where I fly out of all the time. Just started watching your videos and I love them man keep them coming!
Great flight and well documented keep them coming cheers
No lines no traffic just FREE to do what you want to do!!
Very Inspiring. Thanks for posting.
Just a note, dont wait until you are in the air to do a safety briefing in real life...great to include in the video though! Great video!
And a stop at EQY, my home airport! great fuel prices and a nice FBO. Thanks for sharing.
Dude u r amazing! I have always wanted to pursue my dream of owning a plane and u are motivating me to do it, thx. Also, keep flying high
Liked so hard
Awesome Video Matt!
loved this trip report, great editing job! Thanks :)

Nice, it's a beautiful part of the world. I'm happy you enjoyed it, and thanks for your service!
Yes, I had a brain fade there. Great video. Thanks for posting these.
Figured :) But thanks, happy you liked them!
Awesome video and great flying! Looks like an amazing trip
Thanks, it was! Happy to share it with you guys
I see you enjoying the conch fritters. Awesome video thanks for coming to my country
Those old salties saved you guys from a potentially unpleasant journey!
Looks like a great trip. Really enjoying your videos, keep up the good work!
Awesome video!

Haha thanks, yeah, this one was full of "interesting" experiences lol
Rock Sound International AirPlane Patch is much larger than in 78, also not short facing a hill.
Great video! Excellent pilot skills!
Great Video, Geezer alert: We did the exact same thing when we were in our early twenties. flew out to the Bahamas for several days, scuba dived, did a shark feeding frenzy. We also dove on a drug plane that was just off the coast. We located it from the air first. Did it in a Saratoga. Famous quote after landing, " How come we are the only single engine aircraft here?"
Nowadays you'd be hard pressed to find a twin!
Good Stuff Matt and the gang!
Thanks!
love Eleuthera. been there there a few times.
Awesome video! Just started taking flying lessons and videos like this really keep the motivation up! :)
Awesome video, and flight.
I love your videos, very interesting and extremely well done. You should come visit Michigan some time!
The ultimate! Awesome footage.
Thanks Matt! Great video!
Lol there is plenty of enthusiasm among young people. However, a plane like your flying is probably 300,000 dollars. Fuel is 5 dollars a gallon, and a bonanza burns it a rate of 15 gallons per hour. That is why there is a decline in general aviation. Such a huge cost for what is pretty much just having fun.
Love these videos thanks y’all for posting 👍🏼
definitely want to fly to the bahamas with my family one day amazing video
Pilots and Ait traffic Controllers sound so cool when their voices are heard on radio. Matt sounds cool even without the radio 🍉🍍
Really enjoyed the video Matt. Great job, esp the wreck at Norman's . Did not know about it....really cool adventure.
Thanks, happy you enjoyed it!
Fantastic :) :)
Man your landings are perfect!
Only on camera ;)
Great Journey and awesome vidéo ! I enjoyed a lot... Watching you from Reunion Island in indian ocean where we're flying over a volcano
Nicely done!
does anyone else think Guthmiller will fly for snacks?
One Critique- Brief the exit on the ground and have them actually work the door release. It could make the difference of getting out or not.
Outstanding video. Thanks for sharing. Great to see you using Lightspeed headset. Which model do you like the most?
Dude, I envy you.... Goals!
Utica VOR! That antenna is just outside Frankfort Highlands Airport (6B4). They have RC air shows there. Not as awesome as Oshkosh, but fun none the less.
Love your videos Dude
Can you make a video about the landing charges/Parking charges and other charges in different airports around the world.
Excellent video really enjoyed it. I also enjoyed the music as well, What is the name of the guitar music track?
12:43 you landed on New Providence where I live
Exuma
Awesome video! I've spent time flying around the Florida Keys, but not the Bahamas unfortunately. It seems like flying VFR is a little different over there than the states, what was the procedure for flying VFR in the Bahamas?
Thanks! It's actually basically the same, just that in the Nassau control area, you have to file a VFR flight plan (but maybe only when they're busy?)
no sunburn, damn what an accomplishment
this looks so amazing. I really want to be a pilot when I am older, so I can do this.
You better wish to be rich first
This was really great, thanks! Made me check the distances from the best Northern European beaches to the nearest airfields. That will be next summer, though; before that, there's going to be winter flying over snow covered lakes & forests. :)
Also, kept waiting to see steveo1kinevo's C208 on one of the aprons...
I look forward to doing the same when I get my own airplane :-)
Your flights are beautiful. What plane are you flying?
Wtf i just stumbled upon the best chanel in youtube
Wnderfu content. Thank you!
very cool to see you landed at my home airport KEQY... maybe one day we will bump into each others somewhere cheers!!!
Note to photographers using professional gear...
Be sure to completely turn off any type of image stabilization (in camera body or even for lenses) when flying. Somehow the vibration of the plane and other factors can easily cause most any type of image stabilization to fail within a rather short amount of time. I've already seen it happen with numerous camera types/names such as; Nikon, Canon, Sony, Sigma, etc...
It can easily be one of the most expensive items to repair (outside of the sensor itself), and is an item never covered by a warranty.
Yet another great video, Matt. What was the hold over CAM for?
Thanks, happy you liked it! My biannual instrument currency ;)
Matt Guthmiller oh ok, cool.
I would suggest to include info on landing/parking/tie-down fees, if any, as well as gas prices for the airports visited. Great video!
Another great video Matt. Thanks for taking the time to do this. BTW, if you don't mind my asking, what was the fuel cost on this trip and did you have any landing/airport "fees" at any of the airports?
16:46 Why are you reporting your altitude as a flight level?
