I love coming back to watch this video, one of the best aviation short films I've ever seen. Quick question: I noticed the Savage Cub isn't in any of your more recent videos, did you end up selling?
One of the best, if not the best, flying adventure videos on RU-vid. I've watched this video so many times and I'm sorry I haven't given the praise it deserves earlier. Thanks for sharing it with us 😊
Every so often I come back and watch this video. Without fail it always re-focuses my love for aviation and causes me to crave the adventure of a cross-country trip to a place like Idaho. It’s a challenge to produce something that inspires people to this degree, but you nailed it with this video.
after watching other videos, I think maybe, you should NOT have pinned the two doors together in a FLAT PLANE...??..it seems that they should be in a configuration where when one is closed, the other is open ..??!!
I’ve watched your video many times and enjoyed your adventure! Have you considered another destination say Alaska? If you do this old pilot hopes you’ll record and share it here. Thank you for the adventure!
Just got my tail dragger endorsement,, after flying for 30 years. Want to purchase a 180-170 or Maule and fly to Alaska through Idaho,, Great Video!! Thanks
I realize that this was put out several years ago, but the message is timeless, and the content beautiful. I'm 63 and starting my build on a Rans Outbound. I cant wait to do this trip. Thanks for sharing this important time in your life as a pilot and a person.
Hey did you convert your 182 into a 180? i saw a post on backcountry. I have the same year 182 as yours, I have been thinking about doing the same conversion.
You’re killin me Smalls! Love that freakin airplane! One of my favorites. The color scheme, everything. Good for you! I’m hoping to find a 172 straight tail to buy next year. I have a straight tail 150 now. Need a little more room. The 182 is probably more than I can afford to operate but if I had the money that’s the one I’d get. Love it! Did I say that?!? Thx for sharing. Love the first song in the video. All of it is great! You’ll probably never see my comment but Happy New Year!! Be safe
Happy new year and thanks for the kind words!!! This bird has been great to me and does all I ask of it. Good luck on your search for a new bird. The only advice i can give is be thankful and run what you brung!
@@offairportgear I didn’t figure you’d see the comment. Cool 😎 And, I completely agree. I’m always thankful, everyday 🙏🏻 Thanks, man! I’ll be watching every video. Hopefully, I’ll have some of my own this year. Peace ✌🏻
I have a 1958 182A. Looking to get a sportsmans stol, what would you say is your approach speed? What is a take off and land distance that you can get. Thanks
