    I really enjoyed this: such a great balance of information, humour (glad to see you check the Stoppy Things and enjoy a good game of luggage tetris) and stunning footage. Subscribed, and looking forward to seeing more of your content.

    How is there not a single drop of grease or dirt anywhere? The gear and bays look brand new.

    Hey Craig, I think I may have missed one or two videos. Glad I was able to catch this one. I did not know all of this went into private commercial corporate flying...very impressive.
    Oh yeah, I love the accompanying soundtrack.

    Hi watching your videos and find it impossible to spot other aircraft when you talk about them
    Is it possible just to add an arrow when editing as I am blind as a bat thanks 👍👍👍👍

    New subscriber with a dumb question-not a jet pilot. I thought the Legacy 500 would cruise around 400 kts at 39000 ft? You were indicating 241 kts at FL400. Isn't that really slow for that altitude? Even if you had a 100 kts headwind, you should be clipping along at about 300 kts, right?

  • @gilkalbfeld1384

    Could you share anything about your journey to becoming a corporate pilot? I know the biggest thing is networking, but any tips and tricks you have from your experience and journey would be greatly appreciated. Would love to talk.
    Thanks so much

    I was a communicator for a high-ranking US Army General. We flew an US Army J5, and while in Hawaii, my principal, who chose the menu for everyone , decided she wanted taco salads. I was impressed by the fact that the stewards who served us on flights were able to go to Taco Bell and purchase the taco bowls. I did not know that was possible. Great video.

      @photorv4096  4 года назад +1

      Wow. Good catch, Drako. I DON'T KNOW! I don't THINK there was anyone in the aircraft when I shot the walkaround. A LITERAL ghost in the machine! Adding to the preflight checklist: "13. Check interior for uninvited spirits."

  • @thegteam4349
    @thegteam4349 2 года назад +1

    Hi Craig, can I ask, you said at the end of this video that the plane would be in Detroit for a couple weeks until you pick the up at Marquette again. Does that mean you are not flying? Does that mean you aren’t getting paid? Just curious. Super video, new subscriber.

  • @billross344
    @billross344 4 года назад

    Nicely done. After 30 years,, I finally rode along on the airplane with you guys!

    • @photorv4096
      @photorv4096  4 года назад +1

      Ha! Thanks, Bill. It's no Legacy, but would love to take you flying in the C182 when you're willing and able. Thanks for the suggestion.

    • @photorv4096
      @photorv4096  4 года назад +1

      Yes. EMB550. We like it! I'm not a total fan of fly-by-wire everything but it's grown on me.

    Did maintenance have to do an inspection of the engine to insure no bird parts damaged anything?

    • @photorv4096
      @photorv4096  4 года назад +1

      Good question, Paul. No maintenance inspection. I determined the strike was sufficiently outboard of the LH nacelle. There was no apparent debris on the N1 fan. Everything within parameters on the next start/run. I've ingested a few birds in my time and called for inspection and internal scopes, engine cleaning while running, etc. No need this time. Plane has run over 100 hours since. No barbecued pigeons.

    • @billross344
      @billross344 4 года назад

      About 20 Million? That's without the Panera Bread catering though.

    • @photorv4096
      @photorv4096  4 года назад +1

      Thank you, Tex. Bill got it right. "About 20 million". Just a tick over for that for a well-equipped new one. Catering not included. Or fuel. Or pilots.

    "Courtesy fuel" is a thing of the distant past. It is now FBO mandated minimum fuel upload (ever increasing gallon amounts by aircraft type) to avoid an exorbitant handling fee, which depending on the FBO brand, may not include pulling chocks and marshaling out of parking.

    I wish they wood preflight the air craft after landing, its bad getting to the airport at 5 AM and the preflight shows up some thing bad, I could have stayed in bed a few more hours (-:

    • @photorv4096
      @photorv4096  4 года назад +1

      I'm the guy who does BOTH so if it's "bad" the next morning it's because the last bozo who flew it (me) didn't notice something as glaring as...a bird strike, for example!
