Silver Air, and your left seater should be commended and thanked for allowing this to be recorded and published. It demonstrates how well trained, professional, and proficient their crew is. Bravo! And fun to watch!
This is amazing. My 4 year old gets excited when the “pink plane” flys over our house going into KMCO. He calls it “My mommy’s plane” which she has flown from KMCO to KEWY and loved it.
Extreme degree of professionalism all over, special mention for the incredibly fluid, clear yet very polite communication both on FD and with ATC, Bravo !
This is very eye-opening! Your commentary alongside the full CRM flow absolutely crushes anything else I've come across. Definitely looking forward to more.
There are very few videos that capture the cockpit view and a decent view out of the windows at the same time. This is one of them. You really can see that crosswind landing and how you guys deal with it. Many thanks!
Fantastic video @LewDixAviation. I haven’t yet got my MCC (in fact, I’m only about 3/4 of the way through my PPL) but yourself and the Captain’s teamwork and resource management was a thing to behold. In complete control, managing time, resource, communication and external conditions superbly the whole time. Props to Silver Airways for allowing this recording to happen and be published online as well.
Thank you for sharing this flight. It's great to observe a crew environment. I wish other carriers would do this. I think it's helpful for pilots who are new to the crew environment (like me).
Thanks for all of this mate, it's such good content. I love how you get this super nice vids about your current career while still bringing us the good old CFI/CFII content with the always appreciated banter :).
Great video @LewDix Aviation. Watching these videos reminds me of how on the ball we have to be as airline pilots, and more importantly how lucky we are to do what we do! Wouldn’t change it for anything in the world! ✈️
You dont need me to tell you but what an example of excellent airmanship and great CRM, you both seemed to have a professional and positive dynamic. Great service to the industry!
What a great video!!!! Even at 51 I would love to get my commercial to fly for a small airline someday!! Thx to the Captain and Silver Air for allowing these to be made!!!!! I fly out of TPA all the time
Great video! Great landing in the ATR. Now about that Cherokee landing…. /a From a fellow CFI, I really enjoy your content. When you’re next in DFW, the pints are on my tab.
Great vid, keep these coming! Your CFI vids motivated me to get my PPL last year, trying to get motivated to finish my IFR rating and who knows maybe fly commercially one day.. Thanks Silver Airways for letting him Vid!
Haven't watched your videos since Covid and your transition into bigboy aviation. Still as watchable. I'm sure these videos will become very popular with MSFS releasing the ATR in April.
I nearly had the opportunity to fly silver in a couple of weeks. I'm going from the FLL area to Tampa, but silver was only offering one flight that day and it was an an inconvenient time, as much as I wanted the chance to fly with Lewis. Plus, it wouldn't take my LEWDIX code for 10% off to give me better prices
👏🏾👏🏾Bro, you’re awesome. Thank you for the video and thanks to Silver as well for making it possible. Once again you continue to be a phenomenal brand ambassador for Silver. I see an ATR in my flying future 🤞🏾
Flew Silver Airways earlier this month from Orlando to Ft Lauderdale. Seamless experience and quick flight. Hopefully next time I’ll be headed to Key West.
Wow, with Asobo releasing the ATR42/72 you could probably get a lot of new subs if you did tutorials for it :p Your presentation style is great for learning! (once an instructor, always an instructor!)
Congratulations, I have followed your journey over the years and this looks like a great little airline. Good range of destinations, never too far from home, and even international.
Many thanks to you, your crew member, and the airline for this view inside the cockpit. Extremely professional work. Looking forward to more of the same.
What a small world! Always see silver airways flying in an out of KPNS, possibly could have been one of your flights. I work at the ST Engineering hangers off of taxi way E1. Currently an A&P mechanic hoping to get into the flying side of aviation soon.
don't know if you care but one thing I did as a new regional pilot was switch my headphone jack from the left to the right on the Bose A20, super easy to do
Do you ever fly in and out of Tallahassee Florida? I've noticed a pink ATR 42 landing there a couple of times. By the way, I just found your channel and really enjoy it. I went to Sun and Fun this year, and it's a shame I didn't know about your channel before.
Revisiting this video as I’m learning normal procedures for the newly released ATR 42/72-600 in MSFS. Your content is always the perfect blend of fun and professional!
What an awesome vid man! Well done. You guys have those ops nailed. Any advice for a PPL how to practice and memorize flows; chair flying?, anything else?
Thanks mate! Read your checklists 100 times over. As you fly, you’ll be familiar with what comes next and at that point you’ll start doing it automatically. But always make sure to back everything up with a checklist. Remember a flow doesn’t serve to replace a checklist.
@@LewDixAviation Cool, and no worries. Flow + checklist for sure. What would you say for the old planes and the original POH checklists? Those are really basic and sometimes just lack phases like after takeoff etc?
What I really want to know is if the prop brake decouples the power turbine from the gearbox, allowing it to spin freely without driving the gearbox, or if the prop is decoupled from the gearbox like putting a car in neutral. Is the system that complex or is it just a hydraulic friction brake that hold the propeller in place?
