Just passed my PPL checkride Thursday! I have watched hours and hours of your videos which definitely helped me get past the finish line. My first flight with a passenger (my wife) is coming up Friday. Thanks so much!
Huge fan of the channel. Keep it up. I'm a CFI in Atlanta, and the videos have been a great inspiration. It feels like you reminded me that you can actually have fun while you're doing this. Keep the videos coming.
Thanks for the trip down memory lane! I lived on St Simons Island for 13 years and used to work in a building right next to that airport. It's changed a lot since I was there (last time was 2006). I used to eat at Barbara Jean's all the time - loved that place! Love the sweater by the way!
Lew ur vids are amazing dude. Just soloed myself at 16 yrs old two days ago. Been watching your vids they encouraged me to keep going and finish this thing so I can do the things you do.
Literally just got to fly a Cirrus SR-22, with 315 horsepower compared to my usual 150hp Cherokee. Very different, and very fun, and somehow pretty familiar. Fun stuff, and great vid!
KSGJ (St. Augustine, FL), there is a restaurant that is TO DIE FOR in town called Osteen's. There are day where they are just closed bc the family needs a break. I would highly recommend a vlog there! (Its cash only so be prepared)
Happy New Year Lew. Looking forward to new and different videos this year! Im familiar with the Skyhawk so this was interesting to the Skylane. I did not understand it though. Whats a cowling flap do?
I’ve flown a cirrus a Cessna and a piper cirrus was my favourite followed fairly close by the piper then there’s the Cessna with the wings in the wrong place lol
Happy new year!!! when i did my ppl on the c177RG my instructor just told me to twist the prop and mixture and not pull it so that you can have more fine adjustments
The GFC500 has envelope protection, even if a pilot tries to do something stupid like set VS mode to 2500 ft/min in a C182, the GFC500 will go to the highest VS possible within the aircraft operating envelope, but will not allow the airplane to stall. I suspect you knew this and are simply training as if this protection is not there, because the next airplane and autopilot the student flies may not have this protection. Awesome video!
Dude - I am so bummed. I am doing my training at St Simons. Would love to have met you in person. Not sure if you make it up that way much, but hopefully one day we can meet up for Lunch, put on our Flying Eyes and see who is cooler!
I did the same thing with that place being closed on Tuesday! We literally walked up to the store and were like, "Wait... they're closed on Tuesdays?!?!?!"
Whats up with Bob still wearing the drugstore sunglasses with the A20s?? He can't even wear them level, almost like this is a subliminal Flying Eyes ad

"Merry Dix-mas!" Man, now that's... a sweater!
Leave it up to Lew!
Hahaha hope you had a good Dixmas Bry!
Young Bob needs some Flying Eyes. Another Outstanding video Lewis!
You’re telling me! Waiting for them to send me a pair
Funny enough, saw that exact plane parked at KCRG today. I love Skylanes!
Some day Lewis will let Young Bob taxi to parking…
Never!
Happy new year!! Good to see you back in the plane..
Good, refreshing video, of course I haven't see one of your video's sense last year, so sorry. Cheers! have a great year!
fun video, always a great time
Yes sirrr, been waiting on an El Classico LDX adventure clip!

The cowl flaps aid cylinder cooling during takeoff and the climb. Glad you liked it!
I’ve flown a cirrus a Cessna and a piper cirrus was my favourite followed fairly close by the piper then there’s the Cessna with the wings in the wrong place lol
Man, I am about ready to buy a ticket and do a discovery flight with you. Holy hell you make it fun but keep it real and serious.
This looks like an awesome time!
Happy New Year Lew!
you need to make a shirt next Christmas saying Merry Dixmas for LewDix Aviation
Awesome 😎😎😎😎😎😎

Bye Bob!

Just flew up there in December … great food , did Jekyll as well , just posted my video a few days ago for my handful of followers 😂😂😂
Loving all the Vananda airplanes ! I also fly them
Nice!
So much room in there!
That applause though ….😂😂😂
"Bobette" :D
This is my dream plane
Sure, no video of me crashing your late breakfast at OBE but you go to Georgia and it's a whole production. 🤣
😂 was great meeting you
@@LewDixAviation you as well!
Hey!!! ITS THE OBE GUY!!
@@paigesimons1540 👀
It was nice meeting you too!! Dont let Lew get all the fame
Young Bob needs to get some Flying Eyes !!
Yep!
@@LewDixAviation His sunglasses were all Jacked UP!
I did the same thing with that place being closed on Tuesday! We literally walked up to the store and were like, "Wait... they're closed on Tuesdays?!?!?!"
Oh no!
Hi LewDix, wanted to know what qualifications I need to start flight school.
I'm from Zambia, and do I need any academic requirements?
Or all I need is to pay and receive study materials for the flight school program.
how can i get flight lesions from you !! I would love to fly with ya
As an "expert" myself, I can confirm that the measuring tape is used to measure people's Dixmas. Seriously, great video though!
😂
What would you say to people thinking about coming over to the US to do there EASA ppl
That kiss though. 😍
Ok. LewDix. From now on, we demand more kisses and less flying!
Jk 😂
I love the effort to communicate with me HA
Fofa!
Let’s go flying together and I’ll teach you Portuguese from Portugal 🇵🇹 some might say it’s the real Portuguese, not me of course 😂
Merry fuckin Dixmas to you, too
Do you own this 182? Or do you rent it? I can imagine renting would be expensive
It is rented. $140 per hour, dry
KSSI booooo
Come to KEZM ..lunch on me
If he flies the 182 enough, you’ll have to change his name to “Young Bob and His Throbbing Right Thigh” …
Chuck him in a multi and fail an engine
I’d watch that 😁
Whats up with Bob still wearing the drugstore sunglasses with the A20s?? He can't even wear them level, almost like this is a subliminal Flying Eyes ad
It’s his signature look. He looks good either way😅🥰 but your right. He does need a pair
If I’m being honest I thought he lived in the UK…I swear to God. I always heard Orlando but I assumed somewhere in UK bc of his accent. I feel ashamed
wait a tic... not everyone speaks english?
That’s what confused me too
@@LewDixAviation are we talking about American English, or proper english?
