Flying to St Maarten / TBM850
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 сен 2024
- Flew the TBM850 from Miami down to the beautiful tropical island of St Maarten for a few days of Vacation. Nonstop with a flight time of 3h:50min at 27,000ft...we had a slight headwind. Landed at TNCM on runway 10 over the famous Maho Beach. Was very exciting seeing everyone on the beach as we flew over. We stayed at the amazing Resort of La Samanna for 3 nights, highly recommend this resort. The staff is very accommodating and the service is 5 star! Hope you enjoy the video! :)

This is probably one of the most entertaining vlogs I've ever seen.
I always come back to this vid from time after time tho the first time I saw this vid was 5years ago
Thank you for the videos
Just seeing all this FASCINATING airplane stuff caused me just now to SUBSCRIBE!!!
Awesome song 💪🏾
Just found your channel Steve - great stuff. I particularly appreciate the mix of flight-only and flight/destination/tour. You keep makin' em, we'll keep watchin' em! Beautiful bird.
Just an awesome mix of known aviation skills to get there, and the 'airborne' music to emphasize the experience! Very well done, and you need to style more of these like this.
u look so young and FRESH, like you free with the Caribbean
Hi Steve; thought I was caught up with all your videos and then came across this year old video you shot at my yearly vacation spot. It was when the still photo of you on a quad got my attention; your on the public beach next to the resort I stay at; The Royal Palm. St Maarten is a great place to visit especially being right next to the Simpson Bay harbor entrance and watching all those beautiful yachts coming and going. Nothing better than watching the big airlines landing at the airport at Sunset Beach. Great job as always and hope you enjoyed yourself.
I love that island
What a great way to start my day. I'm a student pilot going for my PPL. Your Flying expertise and friendly presentation have me hooked. Your passion for flying is the same as mine. Not a day goes by that I don't look up into the skies. I belong there
Somehow I missed this video after all these years. SXM is my favorite place on earth!
This video is AWESOME! I've never had a video make me want to get my PPL more than this one! The combination of the video clips & that music work very well together. I watch this video multiple times each week, it's that good. Thanks for sharing!
Charles Jordan Thanks Charles, I am glad you enjoy the video.
another excellent vid. Thanks for taking us with you..
Hey Steve, came across your video's, now hooked. You have a great job and a fun life, you deserve it all.
Lovely video in St.Maarten..a little further south and you reach my island of Trinidad & Tobago...AWESOME video
What the hell am i doing with my life?? Apparently not the right things. Awesome vid as well Steve!
very cool, got the job people dream of. (or at least I do) Enjoy the clips
Stunning video to Dutch islands with in the back a song of Dutch artist Mr Propz:-)
Very Nice! Sweet plane and place to fly too. We were on Maho beach last year this time from a cruise. I think we spent about 5 hours there watching the planes come and go. Avgeek dream place :-)
my wife and I have been to st. Maarten love the island I'm glad we could fly with you keep it up on the the videos it helps when you live in Michigan in the winter time
Love this music!
I know this is a couple years old, but I used to fly regularly to French Saint Martin when I worked for Orient Express, which owned Hotel La Samanna. And it looks like that's where you were staying (not sure). In event, French Saint Martin is still my favorite of the French West Indies. Love the people, the food, and the water there. Cheers.
The song matches the video so freaking good! Awesome video
Writing from down under in Oz. Nice video Steve, as all of yours are. Keep them coming!
Great video! Keep them coming!
wow that's a wonderful video and the music goes with it. reason i want to be a pilot. great video steve
can't wait to get there in a couple of months! Love your videos
I live in st Maarten
What a fun airport to fly in to!
Yo SteveO. Great music tracks....great features.....no nonsense aviation scoop....nice job...Storms over....hope you came out okay...rebuild..move forward. Storm aftermath might be some good features.
I am getting ready to take my Knowledge test and I watch all your videos.Thank you for explaining all your Flight Opps.In particular, I am amazed at how you can be talking to us and always hear your call signs and immediately respond!I listen specifically to try and understand the meaning of your communications with ATCWatching your videos I have actually started to understand some of it.
Fantastic!
one of the greatest...
Just subscribed to your channel. My gf and I were in St Maarten last April as part of a cruise out of San Juan. It was our favorite island of the five visited. We were on a short catamaran cruise/snorkel trip that went right out in the ocean and right in the flight path of the airport. Fun trip. Great video!
Love your videos, would love to see st marten
no wayyyy.. i saw u guys on the ramp in st. maarten.. very cool
You should of came by and said hi. :)
hi steveo you sure know how to make really fantastic videos pleas make more

Jfi, people from Germany and somehow from U.S. as well, can't see this video because of the music. Had to install anonymox plugin for chrome to watch :)
Glad to know there's a way to see it. Thanks!
Nice video
Great video, great place, nice little plane, i hope to do the same some day
Come to Puerto Rico, we have no tower airport near my house TJAB. Puerto Rico is awesome and we have a lo of airports here with beautifull beaches. Happy landing!!!
Great Video Steve!
If you're a pilot - you get it. Really nice! Ha... When I grow up, I want to be YOU, Stevo! lol
Beautiful
What a life you have Steve a plane at your disposal and a good looking women on each arm you my friend live better than James Bond so enjoy St. Marten my friend you deserve it ! Please keep the video's coming they are that good !
Love the Music.
awesome video!
My favorite restaurant in Sint Maarten, is just off the runway. Turtle Pier. I hope its still there after the hurricanes.
Tem tantas pessoas achando que são felizes, mas não fazem nem um décimo do que você faz, Parabéns pelo show de vida que você leva sem ser milionário...
There are so many people thinking they are happy, but do not do even a tenth of what you do, Congratulations on the show of life you lead without being a millionaire ...
St. Maarten's is down there quite aways! Not that much farther and you are at Trinidad/Tobago and the Amazon is just south of there. Nice video here though - I guess it is more of an event to watch a 747 with its wheels down, 100-200 feet overhead [sometimes lower, I hear], while lying on the beach, spooky to have that much airplane directly overhead! Good work!
I live in st Maarten
love the Kalik tshirt
Let's goo
Nice!
Hey SteveO ... I fly out of OPF all the time!!! Hopefully I'll meet you one day!! Cheers
Just there in February eating curried goat in the town square in Marigot. Four hours flat from Atlanta in a 767.
cool!
you need to come to st.maarten more often
Hey, Steve! Longtime fan of these videos. I left you a message a few months back and I've been making some good progress! Multi-engine rated now, and about to take my instrument ride. After that, commercial (multi/single) and then CFI's. Your videos inspire me so much to be a pilot like that. How many hours are you at? I know you've told me before, but where do you woke again? And do you own the TBM? Much love,
David
Thanks David, glad to hear your training is coming along good. Right now I fly Corp full time and I fly for a Yacht Club in the Bahamas part time.
So this company you manage the TBM for lets you fly it for vacation? That's awesome
Diggin that Kalik shirt man my dad has a corporate flight department in east Texas and anytime we have a charter to Bahamas we bring back a case #BeerOfTheBahamas
***** very cool! Kalik is my favorite beer in the Bahamas. :)
Hi Steve, Nice video. Any experience on Saint Barth with the TBM.? I want to go there with my our bid. Thanks
sebdiazs I haven't been there but it looks like a really cool place. Maybe someday. :)
Make plans to come SouthAmerica, specially here in Chile, You will have fun on a really short grass fields (less tha 1600 fts). And fot take of @ MTW will need 850 mode.
Best, Sebastian
Hi Steve, Dave from Australia, love the clips and the planes you fly. Do you own the TBM?
what camera do u use bro ?
anyway it has always been great watching ur videos ...fly safe tc
cheers ✌
No full length flight vlog?
Love your videos Steve!
What sort of hiring minimums does Watermaker have? I'm a Private Pilot finishing up Instrument training and then on to commercial, hope to cross paths some day!
Were you never tempted to get the St Barth qualification ?
Hey Steve! Your vids are the best! Currently working on my instrument rating then multi and commercial! How did you get this gig flying a TBM850? I'm thinking of flying corporate in the future! Any tips? Haha, but once again love your vids! Keep them coming!!
Good luck and have fun on your training! My advice is to be a good person in life and network. What comes around goes around. That is how I got the job flying the TBM850. They where looking for a pilot and good word of mouth is how they found me. :)
***** Great life philosophy
Any chance you want to fly to SXM with 4 others in the fall??
Steve I have couple question. What kind of plane you fly every day? I plan to make a license for multi-engined airplanes and take care of the transport of people, goods, and in the US it is difficult to enter the market?
Have you ever been to Dominica via the Canefield or Douglas Charles Airport?
If you don't mind me asking, how many years of flying did you have before you landed the corporate gig? Thank you for the videos!
brian kindlon the next video answered my question!
Wow I wish I had your life and see what you see! #steveo1kinevo
Same xpdr as in the CTLS I fly
I fly 172 s I would like to move up to high performance aircraft, I see that you use the autopilot from takeoff to landing. Can you discuss all phases of the autopilot to us
what did you do if you have to go? no toilet on a TBM...right?
can we also see your start-up and navigational setup??/ Pleeease. fron start to finish.
Hey Steveo1kinevo next time you flight to St. Maarten pickup me @ sju airport I love this island
Does the wind ever stop blowing there?
No it's a Dutch territory, the wind never stops in the kingdom of the Netherlands
MAN! And I thought MY life was cushy..............
Next time for your slow motion parts of the video, use SVP, this calculates you a smooth 60 fps from your 10 fps :)
Great video Steve! I have one question. Since you were flying the TBM for a company, I'm curious to know if the company (I know this is probably a long shot) let you charter the plane free of charge, or if you had to pay a certain fee to use it for 3 days. Thanks Steve! :)
Revoluti0n! Glad you enjoy the channel. My full-time Job is not able to Charter out the TBM850.
+Chris Canuck LOL!!
+Chris Canuck He doesn't own it. It belongs to the company he works for.
wow, a song is also awesome ! which is this song?
Mr. Probz Waves Robin Schulz Remix :) your welcome
OK, so how many hours have you got now? TT, time in the TBM, etc.
+Mike Stone coming up on 6,000 TT with 720 hours in the TBM.
I live in at Maarten
Steve, is it necessary to IPOD your flights now? I just like the professional Reggie and you alone. The editors are either getting paid by IPOD or you are "glossing up your PIC"? Otherwise, we short, short Cessna 172 folks just love your discussion about your expensive charter plane. Thanks. I'll put up with no Allman Brothers or Clapton (yes, I'm that old) this time.
St. Mårten Founded in...bla, bla, bla....bla, bla.... Who cares. Man Your really drifting that dream. Only problem is. Darn I wish it was me! 😎👍🌴💦✈
You must have too much fun to think about going into the airlines right?
Do you have to have a special license to fly into here?
PilotX 12345 no
Work*
Hey Steve! Stumbled on your videos and loved all of what I saw. I then subscribed to your page, awesome stuff man!! I have a question for you but is there a way to just send you the msg? Meaning should I leave an email address etc?
Glad you enjoy the videos. Welcome aboard! If you click on my page you will see a "about" tab. Click on that and you can private message me.
LIKE YOUR VIDEOS. YOU SHOW PEOPLE AND PLACES. SHOULD NOT BE, BUT I AMA BIT JEALOUS, ENVIOUS. NEVER BEEN TO THE CARIBBEAN, BUT WHEN I GO, BE LOOKING FOR YOU. YOU STILL DO CHARTERS OR COMMERCIAL IF WE WANNA HAVE YOU AS OUR PILOT? THANKS.
