As a former controller, I can only imagine watching you progress to a landing was like watching paint dry ... slooow.! But, I must agree with the better comments here. You called ahead, knew you were tasked with staying as sharp as you could and you had two fully qualified pilots watching and cross-checking one another. Nicely Done. I would guess that your flying into that airport made your skills a bit sharper. Good for you. Again, as a former controller, the fun of the job was getting everyone there safely. Working that other traffic around you would be what I called the 'fun.' You were just another plane. Only a bit slower. They weren't hurt by having to work with a much slower aircraft they they had been used to. Everyone wins here.
+Fred Eversole That's right!
Thats a bit long for a comment
Hi, what is the first step in becoming a controller after high school? Thanks. (pardon my username haha)
Fred Eversole, love your positive demeanor. Served appropriately with a side of humor ;)
Hi, whats the highest education required to become a controller?
United, we have you on hold for a Cessna. :(
United, caution wake turbulence from the Cessna.
Michael Niemiera *Prop wash
Sounds like something Airforcepube69 would say
lmaoooooo
FBI I ant lettin u in
Now do JFK at 5pm.
Kerlem ORD is far busier than JFK
Kerlem ORD doesn't come up in Google, are you talking about Orlando?
MCO is Orlando International (McCoy Air Base originally). ORL is Orlando Executive. ORD is Chicago O'Hare (originally Orchard Field), named after Medal of Honor winner Butch O'Hare...who happened to be the son of Al Capone's lawyer who blew the whistle on the gangster for tax evasion.
Hartsfield-Jackson.
Kerlem......damn you are a sponge of knowledge.......
"We have the airport in sight"
Me, a non pilot "all I see is lights"
Ernest Lingo easiest way to spot an airport ar night is to look among the lights, and find “dead space” a dark area. Chances are that’s an airport and not a lake or something
Wrong. You look for green and white lights rotating.
Either way works
Next video: “WE FLEW OUR CESSNA INTO HEATHROW AT 5 P.M.”
Unless it was an emergency I dont think that would even be close to possible.
I want them to go into ATL
Wow that would be - impossible lol since Heathrow only has 2 runways (maybe 3 at some point now that the courts have finally approved it) - or even more impossible - Gatwick (which has ONE runway with a 2nd standby)
no, "We flew a parasail into Heathrow at 5 PM!"
Fucking launched into space
I used to spot for a Cessna owner flying in and around of Ohare. Listening to ATC tell a triple 7 heavy to slow down to make room for a Cessna in front of him usually is what brings the house down.
Plot twist... Turbulence from your Cessna rocks the heavy triple 7 out of the sky... ba-ha-ha
United 367 caution wake turbulence from Cessna
Emblem755 ATC to Cessna: Caution, wake turbulence from flock of migrating swallows 50ft below you
@@Duckystudioz 🤣🤣🤣😛
@@Duckystudioz haha 😂
A Cessna in Chicago, like the good ol Microsoft Flight Simulator 4.0
Yeah. That was a blast!
Good old "Meigs Field". Too bad it doesn't exist anymore
@@petermuller5800 Yeah! I didn't remember that.
Thanks! I had to check what did you mean by doesn't exist anymore and learned that the airfield was demolished in 2002 and now is empty land in the lake.
In Google Earth there is a reference in there: "it was the default airport in Microsoft Flight Simulator software."
Sad. RIP :(
@@gustavosantos106 This brings back memories.
Literally how I got started in my aviation interest, flying cessnas into O'hare in Flight Sim 4.0.
"YOU DON'T NEED 1200 RPM. TAXI SLOWLY."
Now a Senior Principal engineer at one of our nation's leading Aerospace contractors.
Dream big, kids.
Me and two buddies did this at ORD in college. Our landing was at 3am and we did a full stop taxi back. I’ll never forget taxiing next to the 747s running cargo that night.
You're lucky you didn't become FOD.
And welcome back to another episode of: Why the hell is this in my recommended?
loved this though 😊
@Hugo Montenegro , I think you have made same\similar comment over past few days [wk tops] on another video I was reading comments on too! ?
Just fyi I have also been directed then & today by → "ReCoMMeND"... PeaceOut
ANd @Aviation101 ya brother that was rather cool vid!...THANKS for share~
I seriously have no idea how this was in my recommended either
for real
been to o hare tho
RUclips guys have been improving the algorithm these last few months, quite refreshing to receive these good recommendations out of nowhere!
Ohhhh so you're the reason my 787 had to hold over O'Hare ;)
+jmmtcidc lol
Do you actually fly a 787? If so, that is AWESOME and I envy you :)
+alsationfan No that was a complete lie, for comedy's sake.
I was flying into Richmond, VA one day in a 172 and the tower tells me to get in line between 2 heavies that are 2 miles apart. I IMMEDIATELY requested #3 behind the second heavy, because there was NO WAY I was gonna make the airport before him. I know that pilot and everyone on that plane was glad I did.
Be mindful of wake turbulence, even if you cant see it... its there.
great. you want the 'experience' of a class bravo.. the experience of messing sequences up and getting lost on ground. quite the challlenge.. glad they went at night. flying max cruise until the approach end and still land on before brick 1 haha
"Look left... no, your other left."
Lol, we all do this.
It's important to specify which left you mean when you say left.
look at all that LIGHT POLLUTION HOLY MOLY
yeah i see like 2 stars at night it sucks
yeah also the exposure on the camera is probably way up because it’s night time, making the lights look even brighter
Jbog07 Nah they lights
Alexander Meme Your dumb af
Nate Wilkes Yeah
I could never be a pilot, I'll never understand how these people can get every single word and number out of this radio static
Ed Moritz it’s like anything else, you learn to absorb the important stuff and let the clutter go
My thoughts too all the way in.
On a top of different accents
Practice on the 11mhz band...truckers are the worse.. Once you understand them ATC is a cake walk.
It's like any job…you learn ;)
I did that today! In a 172. It was in X-Plane though.
ahahaha
I'm considering doing this in a Piper sometime next week, but after watching this clip I'm having second thoughts. There's so much prep to do, I had no idea! Add to that the responsibility to your passengers, ATC, and other traffic, and you have a recipe for annoying self-doubt. This is X-Plane also.
lol hahahahaaaaaaa
Did you faint? :)
Not sure about him, but...I farted out loud.
Thanks to Chicago ATC for letting them in so we could all share in the experience!
If they’d not called ahead and just filed an IFR flight plan with KORD they’d have gotten in. ATC doesn’t have any right to turn them down. They may jockey them around to fit them in but they’d not be denied service.
Flew into O'Hare at 10pm 4th of July one year. Amazing seeing fireworks from above! 10/10 recommend.
kidding?
One of my last flights as a crew member in Coast Guard HH52 helicopter was a routine evening lake patrol flight out of CGAS Chicago (located in Glenview, It was decommissioned and torn down in the late 90’s along with Glenview NAS). It was on July 4th,1972 and I got to sit by the open side door (yes, I was tethered in) and watch fireworks from lots of different suburbs as we flew back to the station.
Bullshit
Anand how is being on an airplane on the forth of July something that you wouldn’t believe
@@Anand-cx8po Still butthurt from 2 years ago?
I'm not sure why but i could listen to ATC chatter all night
Me too!!
+Mark Nutt Liveatc.net is the right place for you then.
juusojd
thanks!
+juusojd They are so quick and i do not understand what they are saying lol
It is something you have to "Grow an ear to" and it takes practice but they usually say things in same order and same thing always in same situation. You have to just learn the pattern.
There's almost nothing more beautiful than a big city at night.
I got to fly into O'Hare once but it was during the day. My Instrument Instructor thought it would be a good idea. We did it in the clouds, approaching over the lake from the east and breaking out of the clouds at maybe 1000 feet AGL. Suddenly there was a huge runway in front of me, hundreds of feet wide and 2 miles long. The tower said there was a 747 behind us and we should "expedite approach". I asked my instructor what that means and he said to fly the approach at cruise speed.
Gulp! I'd never done such a thing but shoved the airplane into a 130 knot descent, jamming it on the runway and taking the first exit at (normal) flying speed.
We had lunch and departed VFR sandwiched between airplanes so huge that the one behind us was just nose gear in the mirror.
What was your aircraft? I have seen situations like that at ORD and ATL. Mooney, fast Piper, fast Beechcraft between two B747s. Since the B747 is supposed to have a visual on the GA aircraft it is stopped far behind due to the sight angles from the B747 cockpit.
That's a high pressure landing for sure haha. Probably good experience though. Do that a few times and nothing would phase you
I like turtles
Dang one word. INTIMIDATING
Paul M what a jackass instructor lol why would he put you through that
I know nothing about aviation and this was captivating. 12 minutes that went by fast, well done.
Taking a discovery flight with an instructor is definitely worth it. Super expensive to continue pursuing but a ton of fun.
You could say the time *flew* right by, eh? heh.
12 minutes that went by fast, unlike the Cessna
SpearHunked I love you no homo
" Skyhawk, where are you parking?"
"Gate K-13, Terminal 3"
The conversation at 8:38 is hilarious.
Pilot: "Take a glance off to our left"
Co-Pilot: *Looks right*
Pilot: "Left. The other left."
"Okie dokie"
Co Pilot for a reason lol
Co-Pilot: *Looks right*
Pilot: "Left. The other left"
Pilot: *thinks* omfg I'm going to die in a flaming ball of twisted Cessna metal because my instructor doesn't know his directions, aren't I?
In a boat or ship it is always best to use starboard and port. Two people facing each other will look in opposite directions when you tell them to look left.
They will look in the same direction when you tell them to look to the port side.
@@jordanrobson3166 And here is the scary part.. the co-pilot was his Certified Flight Instructor.
ATC probably thought: A Cessna, are you kidding me? 😂😂
scwfan06 Yep - the tower controller sounded insulted...
If it had been a Citation X there would have probably been a shrug.
They have a scheduled flight using the Grand Caravan out of there daily.
SCWfan06 “you are kidding me this slow plane takin up the runway wtf”
There is GA facilities there.
Aviation101: _"Take a glance off to our left"_
Brandon: **looks right**
Yup. Their left would be our right...
@@zts99 wow dude, wow
The other left 😂
Good Job! Very Professional. I am a retired controller. Started my career at Chicago Executive (Pal-Waukee) in 1974 and then went to O'Hare tower in 1977. I worked in the tower until 2004 when I took a job in the offices as a Planning and Procedure Specialist ( I got too old to work air traffic) and retired in 2014. Thanks for making this video it brings back good memories. It takes courage to fly a single engine into O'Hare in the midst of all the jets. Again you are to be commended for your professionalism and Preparation. God Bless You. Thanks again.
Any advice for a job outside air traffic control? Current high functioning jail guard.
Changed the oil in my truck today..... *MYSELF*
Alright! Now,, if you'll just take the trash out.
Congrats! I just quit changing my oil, easier to buy a new car every couple years...lol
@@Boomer-cf2br , good for us....mechanics! Hehehehe
@@januarioqueiroz3122 No its bad for you?
Anything I can do to help you guys out...lol
This reminds me of my own training. We flew into O'Hare IFR, sharing airspace with monsters. I remember being asked for an "expedited" approach because there was a jumbo jet behind us. I flew the approach at cruise speed and took a high-speed taxi off the main runway, a speed that my Piper retractable could damn near have flown.
Taking off was also interesting. We were surrounded by air-breathing, fire-screaming creatures it was best to avoid. I remember looking in my rearview mirror and seeing titanic landing gear waiting to run us over. It was a relief to get a midfield runway takeoff assignment and a quick getaway.
You should make a movie out of your awesome story lol
That was the right thing to do.
Rear view mirror? In a general aviation airplane?
Nope try again lol!!
@@gstone3148 LOL I was kinda wondering the same thing, and thinking to myself, "Rear view mirror? I don't recall anything like that when I was learning to fly."
@@gstone3148 Several C-152s and 172s I've flown have had a (practically useless) rear-view mirror. The Citabria I did tailwheel training in had one, too. Try again!
As retired airline type, I would suggest Crm purposes use your right seater, to do all radio work for you. But very smooth transition. I can tell you are very safety oriented and plan ahead. Nice work, D. hachinsky Retired UPS
His other left? Confidence and comfort just went out the window.
Hahahahahaahhahah i was searching for this comment.
He was joking.
@@ceruleanc505 He said look left and he looked right, how was he joking by saying other left?
That front camera view was awesome. One reason you avoid Class B airports is the Facility Fee. Just to land at Miami International and park on Landmark Aviation's ramp would cost me $220
+steveo1kinevo Wow, my home base is KADS, but never landed at KDFW, KDAL, KMIA, or KORD. It just doesn't do it for me to get those airports. I'm looking for convenience every time.
+Brian K Rich MD Very cool. Addison is a frequent stop of mine. Mainly McKinney though.
KTKI is much better. I wished I based out of there. Great service. Easy to get in and out of.
Always welcome at KAFW!
@@Aviation101 I live in McKinney about 5 min drive to McKinney airport. Live 5 min from the small one that had the mid air collision last summer, not sure the name of it though. See lots of personal aircraft fly out of that one and over the house. The 1 plane crashed about 2 blocks from the house the other was down the street at the Home Depot
"I don't always land at O'Hare, but when I do, it's in a 172..." (insert troll face)
Haha. Epic troll comment.
That comment just won the entire Internet.
John Dennis i reckon the dude is somewhat bold...d young and bold live faster....
John Dennis Thanks for the belly laugh ;)
You are welcome to troll here anytime.
During instrument training many years ago, my instructor told me we would be flying into LAX late one evening to pick up a pilot who worked for the company (which provided FedEx contract service--this was back in the seventies before FedEx owned their own feeders). We landed on 24R (with full CATIIIa lighting), taxied to the south complex, picked up our passenger and took off on 25R. While holding for departure on what I assumed would be 25L, a 727 departed ahead of us. I spent several nervous seconds wondering how I would phrase my request to hold for wake turbulence, but the controller cleared us to takeoff on 25R, which was free and clear. We followed instructions to remain at or below 1000, and follow the shoreline north for the trip back to BUR. Although a little nerve-wracking for a 200 hour pilot, it was an incredibly interesting and educational experience, and I will never forget the local controller's willingness to consider my safety without me having to pry it out of him, even at a busy airport like LAX.
This is like a childhood MS Flight Sim dream come true!
So beautiful...you can see gunshots going off in the distant..😁
alilfast the last time i flew into chicago you could see police chasing someone
America
Lowzboy
Nah, that’s just Chicago.

In late 1991, I was touring the Western USA in my 1954 Cessna 170BM. I got a wild hair one day, and decided I would attempt to land at SFO. I was East of the field about 10 miles, and when ATC asked for my type, I could almost hear the "are you kidding me??" after I replied.
The tower did ask me to keep my speed up, and as I lined up on long final for 27L, there was a B737 just off my right wing, and I was able to wave at the curious passengers looking over at my small bird. I told the tower I would only be using the last 300-400 feet of the runway, and to bring any other traffic in close behind me if need be. I hangared at the FBO on the South side , and if I recall correctly, the landing fee was about $75.
It seems that San Francisco is not really worth visiting any more, so I'm glad I got a chance to see it almost 30 years ago.
JSBIRD69 why do you find it not worth visiting anymore?
@@bigbenmk4873 Human faeces are all over the streets.
@@bigbenmk4873 Ben, any place with the nickname 'San Franshithole', and noted for having a turd map of town, is no place I wanna be.
JSBIRD69 lmao stick to the beaches
Was just in North beach the other week. Still the hippest place, packed with tourists from all over the world. Europeans say its their favorite place to visit, american hillbillies don’t seem to like it though, but they know best. Please stay away. You can’t afford SF anyway so its prolly best. You sound like a douche telling the controllers to place traffic behind you. Its their job to decide that. Are we making things better again yet?
The is a small carrier called Cape Air that flies into O'Hare. I've flown it before and it was really interesting to be in a Cessna and weave around the big boys.
Lol, I love how he subconsciously checked his seat belt at 9:45 and cleared his throat as you guys are in your descent. As some said in a different thread, "It's like riding a bike on a freeway". Hats off to you!
Oh man....night flight over large cities is so BEAUTIFUL......
I'm not a pilot and I was stressed out watching this.
Excellent job and I'm sure it's something you'll never forget.
COOL! I once landed a Cessna 172... VFR at SFO...(my friend had a flight out of there)
So I called ATC from over Monterey, told them destination SFO...Expected a curse "NO CESSNA". Was
shocked when they approved and told me to report over Moffit Field...a long straight in final approach....switching to the Tower,
1 mile final I started to put in 1 notch of flaps...Tower said "Keep your speed up Cessna"
So went in, NO FLAPS, power dive at over 120 knots. landed smoothly...as per tower instruction made turn off....then taxied about
3 miles to General Aviation...Experience I will never forget.... taking off 2 hours later was a challenge.
As a controller myself I think it was pretty awesome of you to call ahead and get the best tips from Tracon!
I wanted to make sure we COVERED out corners!
The city shots from the windshield camera were absolutely beautiful Josh!
This is a great way to demonstrate just how complex and difficult landing a smaller GA plane in a busy Bravo airspace is, and why avoiding one if possible is a better option, but planning ahead is essential if that’s your plan, because the accident at Dallas Hobby Airport with the task saturated and overloaded single pilot simply falling from the sky in the end is one that haunts me. Enjoyed the ride with you guys.
very cool video! thanks for taking us along
Good stuff, and you gotta love the Sony A7S - that thing is ridiculous for night shooting! Too bad it didn't catch the landing - that sea of blue taxiway lights would have looked awesome!
***** as a follow up regarding having a camera go down at a cool time on a flight: Same thing happened to me arriving at Osh - 2/3 of my GoPros (including the one getting audio) died IN THE PATTERN arriving into Osh this year. like all I needed as ~5 more minutes. One was a dead battery, the other a full card. Anyway - even though I was flying right seat, I was in "100% pilot mode" at that that point, as you were when landing in Chicago; so it's good to know we do what we say we do, and ignore the cameras when flying critical phases.
***** And that's exactly how it should be! Set it and forget it. I was so in the zone that I didn't ever glance at the camera once (or else I would have noticed the "REC" was off). Aviate, Navigate, Communicate - nothing about fiddling with cameras in there!
OOF!
Beautiful ATC work - I'm sure Center and tower were all very appreciative. Aircraft handling was precise for both the GS and Loc. ATC kept the heavies and fast flyers separated off your tail. This was truly a joy to watch and listen to. Definitely not something I would want to attempt without my trusted CFI in the right seat. (lovely photography too.)
Cynthia Klenk thank you!
Hard to believe it's been 8 years! I believe this is my favorite 101 video. Thanks.
Gorgeous pictures. Thanks.
Another CFI and I flew in from DuPage to O'Hare in a new F35 Bonanza back in 1979. We worked at DuPage Aviation, the largest Beechcraft dealer in the Mid-West back in the 1970's. We would sometimes pick up new planes from the Beech factory in Wichita. Anyway, to O'Hare, the Approach controller asked if we could keep our cruise speed up to around 160 as long as we could until short final. He wanted to sequence a jet in behind us. As young men, we got a real kick and we had little fear. Now, I'm a different person. Anyway, January 1979 was one of the coldest winters Chicago had in many years. Also, the snow drifts from plowing on the sides of the runway must have been at least 10 ft high. I recall as we were cleared for take off to the Northwest, the tower asked us to make a right 270 degree turn as soon as possible. We complied. I recall a long line of "heavy" jets waiting in line for us to depart. As soon as it was safe, we raised the gear and made a steep climbing right turn to the West. It felt like we broke ground in a few hunderd feet because it was so cold outside. Someone watching from the taxiway said "give that guy a Kewpie doll". My buddy in the right seat said "we'll take it", and we were on our way. I'll never forget that experience. That was 38 years ago.
i recall taking off out of Riverside enroute to Hollywood/Burbank to shoot ILS landings on a clear VFR day. While under the hood and with an observer aboard, we were cleared for takeoff by Riverside tower with the instructions to switch to Ontario Radar at about 2000'. I was getting ready to request direct transition to Victor 26 thence direct El Monte when departure control, in a very hurried voice, instructed "Arrow one niner one two tango turn left 180 immediately". I immediately complied without acknowledgement when my observer said "HOLY -HIT". I immediately whipped the hood back and there in my cross path at maybe 500 higher than me was a C-5 Galaxy heading approximately 270 to the Norton transition. I immediately chopped power and put the nose down waiting for the wake turbulence to hit us..........it never came. We got lucky. I continued heading 180 directly towards the Cleveland National Forest mountain range waiting for departure control to vector us back to Victor 26.....and waited....and waited...and waited...finally I said "Ontario departure control Arrow 12 Tango"...he responded "12 Tango go"...I responded "do you intend to vector us back to Victor 26 or do you want us to continue into the mountain". Needless to say I cancelled IFR, flew directly to Ontario VFR and filed a near miss report.
I too Have been into Ohare in a 172, a C210, and our Family Aztec. Its always been fun, especially with the older Taxiway names,,,,,Inner/Outer/Lake Shore drive, ect......Plus Butler Aviation used to be where the United terminal was built. $5 to park all day! They used have a stub Runway 18/36 next to the VOR. You always landed 18....and departed 36....no matter what the wind was!
"give that guy a kewpie doll..." lol wtf does that mean
You are part of what makes the airport busy, just like any other aircraft.
Good job.
Back during the Vietnam War I was flying freight into Chicago ORD carrying everything from mail to ammunition casings in a Cessna 206 with a beefed up engine and a feathering prop from our Rapid Air base in Milwaukee. Most of the three to five landings, five days a week,were after dark checking in over waypoint Northbrook for a straight in approach at full speed until reaching the freight ramp about three quarters down the left runway to a screeching tuck onto the ramp leading to the Continental freight hangers. Return trips to MKE commenced after being granted an “immediate left hand turn-out, which means taking off from the taxi way. Absolutely glorious memories, even under IFR rules.
Outstanding job. Thanks for sharing the experience with us.
Cessna 172 Heavy ! I would never consider saying this, but I'm guilty of the thought. LOL
Had to use hard breaking might mana check the runway for debris
As a controller, I don't understand why private pilots would think it's a big deal to fly into an airport like ORD. The controllers there almost all came from smaller terminal facilities as well as probably work smaller aircraft into satellite airports, so working a skyhawk is just not a big deal to them. There's also no need to go fast (like the one guy said, 100 versus 90 knots doesn't make a difference -- we just add extra space behind no matter what your speed). The uploader is right though, altitude and heading is critical to adhere to but it is anytime you fly IFR.
Good radio skills by the uploader by the way, that's the only thing that might irritate a controller (a little) if you take forever to read something back.
Thanks for the feedback! Good information for a pilot to read from a controller.
There's nothing legally wrong with far as i understand other then just a rare sight, the only thing is in some cases if you do happen to fly something small in at a really busy time, ATC may hold you back for the until they are able to put you in the traffic,
I worked at O'Hare long time ago, the ATCs sometimes would get bent....I was sent in to "unbend" them
Did you use a calm voice?
@@MilwaukeeF40C he used a clam voice
Great! Thank you for the video and the play-by-play.
Well done guys. Thanks for sharing!!
Wow how times have changed! Did this back in the 70s at age 19 in a C-150. I was lucky enough to have trained at BWI in Baltimore so the radio did not intimidate me.
Outstanding video. Your narration is very clear and concise. The imagery is beautiful.
Great video, very well done. Every GA pilot should be as prepared as you guys were. Great job.
Beautiful landing, guys. Thanks for sharing. Congratulations and keep spreading your wings!
Well done. Wow - thats a pucker factor for sure.
“Take a glance to the left........the other left”😂
Jacob Yarnell the PIC had his head more in the game than that clueless CFI. I’d fire that CFI if he kept scrambling numbers and left vs right like a newb.
Thank you! A glimpse into another world. Really enjoyed that.
The best cockpit Video clip I’ve ever seen, fantastic communication with TC. Loved it and appreciate your sharing.
Wow this is amazing to me. I can’t imagine ever flying an airplane. Really impressive, nice work!
Your careful preparation and keep things safe attitude are what earned a like from me. Good job....
Love the crm you both displayed!
That shot out the front was just gorgeous.
Just watched your video and I really enjoyed it because I've done the exact same thing, also in a 172 and about 9:30 pm, albeit many years ago when it was called a TCA. Working on my Instrument rating at MDW one evening my CFI asked me if I'd like to go to ORD. He said "you fly, I'll handle the radios" and it worked perfectly. Everything you said about flying in ORD airspace with much larger and faster aircraft is absolutely true. Calling ahead, being professional, ditto. To taxi among airliners, with their nose wheel headlight at about the same height as the rear window; it was light the sun. Every controller we talked to treated us just like everybody else, very professional and courteous. Thanks for posting, I'm glad I found it; I'll watch it again and again. My experience was WAY before personal video!
COOL! you even got AeroLogic (BOX) on the radio!
Those views of the city from the air are stunning ♡
Flew a cessna into Newark last night. Putting a 172 down right behind a 757 was... an experience
I love this, I was returning from Eugene Oregon heading back north to harvey airfield (s43) when they cleared me through the class Bravo surrounding seatac Int. I asked if they would be able to squeeze me in for a touch n go at seatac and it wasnt an issue, ended up doing 5 touch and goes :) (this was at 3am)
Beautiful. My dream is to fly one day, for now im stuck on flight sims
Look up any flight schools near by, sometimes if u contact them they let you do a trial flight!!
Same, but I’m only 11. Not old enough to afford rn
@@greensphinx I'm thinking a Christmas/BD gift? :D
They're not super pricy, the flight school near me does the trial flights at $90! That much to taxi the airplane, take off, and fly around for 30 mins with an instructor next to you is a good deal!
@@greensphinx you should look into joining the Air Cadets when you're 12, loads of opportunities to go flying!
Django Davies just wondering, what country are you talking about that has the air cadets? Thanks for the reply though :).
Neat video.....love the city lights. THat's one of my favorite things about landing in large airports when I travel:-).
beautiful footage
This is mesmerizing, such a beautiful city. Awesome job flying as well as editing the video!
5:46 HOLY SHIT! THAT VIEW IS AMAZING!!!!!!!
Very cool video, I'm glad to of randomly run across it. Thanks for posting. This brought back some great memories. I learned to fly in and around ORD airspace out of what was then PWK (Palwaukee Airport) right next to ORD. It's a complex, crowded, windy and exciting airspace to be sure.
Thanks for sharing with us.
This seams so calm and peaceful, at first it seemed stressful but as it went on I realized it is a very peaceful place that high.
@8:00 "Where are you parking?" All things considered, that was kind of funny.
Congrats and great job!
I love how they're all saying thank you and good night etc.
Wow, how did I miss this 5 years ago! Great video!
Wow. Beautiful night for that flight!
Great video! That is a gorgeous Cherokee at the end too!
"Goose, it's time to buzz the tower!" GOOD JOB, You guys are awesome! I lived in Chi for 4 years & flew into Midway. That lit-up city just ends at the lakefront! Happy sky-trails!
Always learning. Great video.
I've flown into a couple of ATC bravos - Dulles international and Charlotte - both daytime VFR...
Ok
As a former pilot of learjet and current owner i enjoy watching this videos.
That view is beautiful
Awesome video! Thanks
That's my Beautiful City! 🌃
I flew a Cessna 172 into ontario international airport to take a radio to an electronics shop just off the very end of the runway. I asked my old instructor if he had any advice for the trip (I was flying VFR) and he said it's a long long runway and if you land too soon, ground control will hate you so touch down at least half way to three quarters down the runway. Touched down right on the line!
tedgey Why does ground not like you too land early?
Jacob Elmore it takes long to get off the runway and other planes have to wait
Jesse One Wouldn’t landing earlier decrease the total amount of time you’re using the runway though?
very cool, thanks for sharing.
You guys are awesome! Thank for sharing!
I am strictly a passenger, but have flown into O'Hare at least a dozen times. I've also flown into Metro(Detroit), Hartsfield, Gatwick, Heathrow, Charles De Gaule, Orly, Hobby, Inchon and others. There's nothing like flying into a huge city at night. But to successfully pilot a plane.

That'll be $3500 landing fee for sticking your landing gear onto our runway.
That was my question, I once landed at Orange County, and paid $1,500 landing fee!
@@sdcoinshooter The really funny part is in Canada. John Pearson International Airport in Ontario charges over $5000 for landing fees. Most expensive landing fees is Narita International Airport and Tokyo international airports charge over $6000 for landing fees.
@@sdcoinshooter Jeez, couldn't imagine having money to shit about like that
Seriously, god damn
@@ph11p3540 Holy crap, even for a single engine? I haven't even looked into that yet. That changes my plans for flying my Citabria north. I've been wanting to fly to Toronto, go to the hockey hall of fame & catch a Leafs game.
Greetings fro 2021. Fantastic video I really enjoyed your explanation of how you planned your flight and called ahead. Thanks for posting.
absolutely stunning to watch! beautiful!
