Matt Thurber, AIN’s Editor-in-Chief, joins ferry pilot Gilles Glatz as he flies a brand new Daher TBM 910 from Tarbes, France to Camarillo, California, about 5,400 nautical miles. This is just one of 30 to 40 such trips that a ferry pilot like Gilles takes each year.

Cool video, thanks for sharing!
steveo!!! I watch ur vids and flight chops vids!
I have started to love the TBM more and more because of u!
I love to hear about these lil planes covering vast distances
I have to admit, if you handed me the keys to a fueled tbm and tasked me with ferrying it
There’d be a strong chance your airplane would disappear in the Bermuda Triangle for a few weeks
I’d come back with a wonderful tan... side effect of the supernatural encounter of course
This comment is underrated
Hahaha! You should be on a stage!
I loved this!! This could have been a 2 hour documentary, really!
Fantastic story! Congrats! Many of us flying the TBM in Flight Simulator now! Blue skies!
I’ve watched this video a few times. Each time I can’t help but think how pleased Charles Lindbergh would have been for the heated seats, especially given a westwardly crossing of the ocean.. “you mean I’ve got weight to spare?!?”
Yay you mentioned my city Winnipeg Manitoba.....Canadas heart beat!!!!🇨🇦👍
Just recreated this entire journey...in a TBM 930 in MFS2020 :-)
Nice. Can you share flight plan some where?
Those were some longs days, but at least they were spent mostly in the air. It's hard to believe the ferry pilot does this solo most of the time. I hope he has some good music loaded for those really long legs of straight and level flight!
That was a fantastic summary of an epic flight. Really enjoyed the narration!
Very nice video, more like this please :) Sounds brutal, i couldn't do a trip like this. Respect to the ferry pilots around the world!
This is so cool! This is what air travel supposed to be!
Nothing like excellent video quality with an even better narration! Stunning!
I felt like I flew with you. Great video and narration.
Very good video! Comfortable to listen to, interesting narration and video. Keep up the great work.
What an amazing experience with a stunning and reliable aircraft. I enjoyed the video, thank you!
Totally enjoyed this video! Great footage and commentary! So glad I found this channel.
Excellent video and commentary. Keep up the good vlogs.
What a great story. Thank you for sharing!
Excellent video! Direct to the point, even all the fuel stops :)
These are the best videos
Chanced upon your video... really well presented..not to technical..and at the same time very nice shots of the aircraft.. locations etc.. educational too!! Thanks for sharing!!
Impressive flight. She looks beautiful.
Incredible trip congratulations
It would have been nice for you to summarize total fuel burned, total fuel cost and then finalize by cost per mile for this long trip.
Yep i was hoping for this also.
Yes it would’ve been icing on the cake
@@aayeh64 Don't you mean icing on the leading edge? ;-)
Great travelogue. Thanks for posting it!
Gorgeous trip
I really enjoyed the flight, the narrator was very pleasant to listen to, he made the flight not so boring, lol. This "Hop, Skip, and a jump" was interesting, especially in a brand new aircraft. I liked the layout of the instrumentation, very friendly. This video deserves more than a little thumbs up so I'm subscribing and ringing the bell too. I hope to see more videos like this, thanks for sharing.
Thank you for watching and subscribing! We appreciate it.
Great video, thanks for sharing! I absolutely would love to own and fly a TBM!
What a way to see the world.
Awesome video
Awesome trip. As a pilot this would be a dream come true
Enjoyed your video and I look forward to your next video.
Beautifully narrated 😊🙏🏽
Nice job guys.
Amazing!
Great video, well done and to the point! Such an amazing and beautiful way to see the world, that's flying for you people :)! Safe skies!
Thank you for sharing this video - if anything it shows that the TBM (AND YOU GUYS) could handle some butt-cold weather!
such a gorgeous plane!
I LOVE ferry flying.
Thanks for sharing ✈️
Great video, very much enjoyed it.
Amazing trip , I wish I could have like it
Well put together.
Yes, Beawtiful trip for TBM New
Fascinating!
Great clip well done.
Beautiful ❣️
Thank You For Sharing
Happy Safe 🛫
You flew to my home airport, KCMA. Awesome.
solid performance
wonderful flight
Great video, thank you!
Good narration. I calculated about 7 1/2 miles per gallon from France to Scotland. Beautiful airplane.
Very enjoyable video
Great job!!!
Wow awesome view !
Beautiful airplane!
Beautiful bird!
Great video and nice adventure!!
AWESOME VIDEO, PLEASE KEEP THEM COMING, SO GUYS LIKE ME CAN LIVE VICARIOUSLY THROUGH YOUR VIDEOS
Great video👍🏼
I am glad that this was recommended to me
Nice video, I used to do some work at the Prestwick FBO. The golf course you see in the picutre on climb out is Royal Troon, it is a world famous course used for the The Open tournament.
Very interesting- thanks!
Nice! I live about 8 miles from Camarillo Airport.
Oh this was great!
Awesome Video, not sure I would be brave enough to do it BRAVO
Thanks for the nice ride (even thou it was to darn cold). :)
That was the flight common to old days Boeing 707 or Lockheed Constellation. Many stops on Long-haul flights.
Would love to get a chance to fly a TBM one day!!
Never knew a prop-plane like that could fly so far! Nice work guys! 👏🏼
socalsilver There are clearly stops
WattsUpDev for sure, but some of those legs (in very isolated areas) were pretty far.
They didn't fly non-stop because the TBM-910 has a range of around 1700 miles, so they had to land in few places to refuel and get some rest.
Looking very nice....
You know I think this is really cool content and I tried to watch the whole video, I just couldn't take the woodpecker noise in the background the whole entire time.. lol
this aircraft (or the 940 now) is very close to the holy grail of single engine prop aircraft :)
AWESOME
KCMA is my home airport!
Beautiful plane and trip. When you crossed over the Hudson Bay I said to myself. I think I would’ve pissed myself if I was on board.
I wish I would have a chance to make a trip as a copilot from France to USA or Canada. Lol from Germany. I ❤️ TBM
Love the logistics! Thanks.
Man! I want to ferry fly.
Plan to do that one day, except that I’ll be flying my own TBM
I like the Pilatus suitcase, lol.
I saw that too. Started scrolling through the comments to see if anyone else picked up on the ironic photobomb
5:22 is that a King air 200? at the front of ur plane?
i live in tarbes !
Nice
Interesting routing. I'm a tad curious why he wouldn't have planned something like BIRK-CYFB-CYYQ-KGTF-KCMA and cut out two stops and keep pretty conservative westbound legs.
Can you give me the source of the cubby hole that they fabricated into the panel? I want to put this into my new avionics panel
I'll go next time!
Amazing video thank you, my only concern would be needing to go to the toilet! So I could never do such flights as my tolerance is nil aha!
Publish the waypoint identifiers for this journey. This is interesting for aviators. If they have already been published somewhere, give a link, please. Thanks. I wish you that the number of takeoffs was equal to the number of landings! :-)
:)),,, no adsb built in?
Did you fly across the Atlantic Ocean
Thanks for using the metric equivalents in your text. The next step would be, as an 'international news' site to use that as the default in the audio as that's what everyone outside of the USA understands.
Interesting
Wind at over 100 nm/h? I thought nm/h = knots
I really enjoy videos like this / series, having watched Dangerous Flights years ago, nothing has come a long since thats close to it! Thanks for uploading! I have the greatest respect for ferry pilots / companies as it is clearly an extremely dangerous job. You must see some incredible sights though.
If you are a competent, experienced pilot, it's not an extremely dangerous job. If it was, then there would be few competent, experienced pilots left.
I was wondering if those turboprop small bussiness aircrafts can fly over the oceans. Guess I got my answer.
Love the pilatus case ;)
Yep, that was precious.
Great airplane.A MOONEY stole by french.I have The Mooney book written and autographed by Larry Ball.Talked to him in person.Before he passed away."Those remarkable Mooneys. "
France didn't stole anything, but paid what was due. Fake news from you. Shame on you.
Hands up if your doing this flight in FS2020!
