20110730 Departing KACY

This video captures clearance delivery, taxi, and departure from Atlantic City, NJ (KACY). Most of it is routine, but there is a "what would you do" moment in the run-up area. When I switched to the tower frequency I heard the end of the previous

20110729 ILS 13 KACY

This is my approach into Atlantic City, NJ (KACY). The controller gave me a "slam dunk" which put me in an interesting position. One of my passengers was experiencing her first flight in a small plane and I wanted to take care in the descent,

20101104 ILS 32 KOKV

This is a proficiency approach into Winchester, VA. I had to cancel a planned flight to Blacksburg, VA due to the icing forecast, but I was at least able to get up locally where there wasn't any ice. Ceilings weren't very low, but there's

20101019 Departing KTRI

Departing Bristol/Tri-Cities (KTRI). Captures clearance delivery, request and use of progressive taxi (again, as simple as it was). A couple notes on this departure... First, I'm not accustomed to flying out of commercial airports - especially at

20100724 Landing KJYO

This is the end of the third approach of the day (GPS 17 KJYO ). I know, I know. I have so many landings at my home field posted, but this landing was too smooth to pass up. :) Weather: 28006G15KT 10SM CLR 36/21 A2997

20100627 Departing KMQI

This is my taxi and departure from Manteo, NC (KMQI). With the hot weather I wanted to get airborne as quickly as possible, so I departed VFR and activated my IFR flight plan in the air. (I'd be talking to the same controller anyway. Listen up for

20100625 Landing KMQI

This is my landing at Manteo (KMQI) in North Carolina's Outer Banks. The winds favored runway 5 and I'm approaching from the north. Yes, I was one of "those pilots" on this day. It's OK for you to laugh. Luckily there was nobody

Here's a time-compressed sequence from my trip to North Carolina's Outer Banks (KMQI). There was a thin cloud layer for several miles with the tops right at my cruising altitude of 7000 feet (2134 meters). Not quite canyon flying, but it was akin
