We flew from Addison Texas (Dallas) to Telluride Colorado in a Turbo Twin Comanche at 16,000 feet. Telluride is one of the most beautiful places int the United States and I love it there! Lots of scenic views, waterfalls and a fun place to visit.

Wow. Real close to those clouds.

What a beautiful port

@steveo1kinevo 7 лет назад

Beautiful approach! I was on a motorcycle camping trip a few years ago and stopped by to visit Telluride and drove up to check out the airport. Such a cool little spot.

@Sailingdoodles 7 лет назад

+steveo1kinevo yeah it's a really cool place!

@LEE-wj3sz 7 лет назад

I used to go in there with a Lear 31A back in 90's with skiers. Later I took a G-200 in there and it had to be VFR since we had lousy 2nd segment performance. Brings back old memories. Some good, some not so good. Nice footage.

@richarddonahuejr.2647 7 лет назад

I've flown into Leadville Lake County Airport in the winter with my UH-60 crew as a flight of four. 9,934 feet MSL. It is some great views there.

@Sailingdoodles 7 лет назад

+Richard Donahue Jr. never flown there. I've heard it's great though. Highest airport in the USA. I flew into Kathmandu Nepal a few times... interesting single engine departure procedure!

@germanshepherd2579 6 лет назад

Leadville is a cool place..Used to live in CO. If you get a chance play golf there. Highest golf course in North America at close to 11,000ft. Its fun to watch how far your Ball goes

@goodnameyt6675 7 лет назад

Colorado is awesome. I took the fam to estes park last summer. At first they were just along for the ride, but once they got a taste of the natural beauty and mild climate, they loved it!

@Sailingdoodles 7 лет назад

+robert mullins yeah it's a great place and you can't beat them temperatures in the mountains in the summer.

@skylords2608 4 года назад

Looks alot like Peru, especially the flight in.

@svamour4574 4 года назад

Bobby, I have landed many times at Telluride. By far the most beautiful place on earth. The morning mist in the town is breathtaking. Bobby, you do such a great job. Wish you the best. Brett SV/Amour.

@lrs8369 7 лет назад

Thanks for posting, fun to watch.

@robertdietz4656 7 лет назад

As a Coloradoan, I completely agree. Colorado is a beautiful place.

@justingraham7387 7 лет назад

I was just in Telluride in January it is beautiful long drive from Denver ..loved the bar at the top of the gondola hope you got to get a drink there .

@Sailingdoodles 7 лет назад

+Justin Graham yes we did! Grabbed dinner there one night. Amazing views! I hope to make it back there this year

@justingraham7387 7 лет назад

+Sailing Doodles My wife and I live 30 minutes west of DIA if you need a place to crash

@Gofunkel1 7 лет назад

We were there last November, it was a longer drive from London, Ontario, Canada. The snow was late coming, so we actually got to drive up Imogene Pass to the top, but back down into Telluride again. Lots of snow already on the Ouray side. It snowed quite a bit that night, I think we may have been the last to drive to the top for 2016.

@justingraham7387 7 лет назад

JeremyJGreen that's funny that is a very long drive .My wife and I drove to Whistler Canada for a weekend stay ..lol ... The drive was longer than the stay but we'll worth it ... Everyone says it's the Journey not the destination...I completely agree with that statement..

@lanksterprice 7 лет назад

You speed it up... I speed it up and we are done in 3 mins.... now thats how we do it... nice views... Really hope you get your wings back again...

@troyc4284 7 лет назад

@Sailingdoodles 7 лет назад

+Ellis Turner thanks Ellis!

@gregponder8332 7 лет назад

If you do get back to Telluride this summer, get your 4-wheel-driving butt over Imogene Pass to Ouray. It's a very nice adventure.

@Sailingdoodles 7 лет назад

+Greg Ponder yeah I've heard that's a cool trail

@SuperPirate100 4 года назад

Lovely views , thanks for 90/270 explanation. Shipping has a similar thing for man overboard, the Williamson turn, hard over towards the MOB until 60 degrees off course then reverse the rudder and the turn should take you back up the wake , it works for everything yacht to 500,000 tonnes .

@cozydram1 7 лет назад

that was a cool ride and the area around the airport is spectacular.....thank you for sharing

@Sailingdoodles 7 лет назад

+Phil Collins it's a gorgeous area. From ground level it's amazing but from the air... wow

@3AlarmBushcraft 6 лет назад

Dude there is something about your story and videos that just captivates me. I hate to hear that happened to you. But i swear you have a smile on your face constantly and seem to be happier than me at work and nothing happened to me. You seem to be living the life most people dream of.

@markisLem 7 лет назад

@stevesvids2960 7 лет назад

Great glimpse of flying and love the channel. Used to fly in there on occasion..mostly Aspen and Steamboat on charter. Lost my medical in 98 so sailing is the "insurable" replacement now! Fair winds and best of luck on your adventures!

@Sailingdoodles 7 лет назад

+Steve's Vids well I know how you feel! Thanks for watching

@michaelnichols8633 6 лет назад

@pcwanders 7 лет назад

very nice! I had a checkout in a turbocharged C182 on a nice warm (aka high density altitude) day on a flight from KDVT-KTEX-KDVT to satisfy the flight school's insurance company.

@michaelgaskin4391 7 лет назад

Watch out for the hangliders

@tentimes4 7 лет назад

very nice... the 90/270 is also called a williamson turn on the water. You use it for Man overboard. Standard tactics for licensed captains in the air and water it seems...

@stevebaas9570 7 лет назад

Awesome!

@jonathancontre1420 7 лет назад

Great vid Bobby. I've only flown it in the Winter. It's the highest (I think) commercial airport in the United States.

@Sailingdoodles 7 лет назад

+Jonathan Contre yeah, second highest of all airports in the US. I think the have some commercial service there but not much

@rwtabler 7 лет назад

Landing at Sedona, Arizona is right up there with Telluride in the beautiful ranking.

rwtabler yeah I flew in there once too in a Gulfstream

@campingalan 7 лет назад

Great video Bobby. Say hi the next time you are there; Ouray is only a 50 min drive, on the other side of the eastern ridge to Telluride.

@Sailingdoodles 7 лет назад

+campingalan will do.. possibly September

@AmeriMutt76 7 лет назад

my backyard, nice. You probably flew right over Durango, yeah? I've always wanted to see SW Colorado from a small aircraft. I'm sure it's quite the experience landing in T-Ride, hell, it's one of the scariest passes (not fer me, fer the flat landers) in the state if you drive via Silverton. And T-Ride is my favorite place 'on earth' to go to a music festival (or the Mushroom festival!) or any festival, there's one every weekend in the summer. Thanks for sharing Bobby

@Sailingdoodles 7 лет назад

+Mike Hayse yeah telluride is a great place. I want to get back there this summer if I can. Yes I've flown in to Durango several times. Stayed at the Hilton on the river. It's a nice place too.

@fxpthl 7 лет назад

Yes Bob, that is an absolutely beautiful part Colorado! Visited it on one of our road trips a few years back. Lauren?

@Sailingdoodles 7 лет назад

+Edward Grant ha that plane is a little small for a flight attendant !

@BeachBow 7 лет назад

I used to fly small commercial planes. One pilot asked me why and I told him that if anything went wrong, I had a good chance of getting to him before we hit the ground. Some folks just don't have a sense of humor! LOL!!

@thomaschandler7820 7 лет назад

Highest I ever got in my Cherokee Pathfinder (PA-28-235) was 11,500. But the Appalachians are not as high as the Rockies. I did fly through the valley between Ashville, NC and Johnson City TN. Was quite interesting to have mountains on each side of me. My Favorite Airport was Transylvania County Airport in NC. Looking for a Sailboat now. Want to share it with my kids, similar to the Pfeiffers.

@Sailingdoodles 7 лет назад

+Thomas Chandler that's some pretty country out there. Very thick woods. Would hate to have to try and put down somewhere out there. Highest I had the twin Comanche is 20,000

@Sailingdoodles 7 лет назад

+Thomas Chandler highest ever was 51,000 in a g550

@2thelight 7 лет назад

Reminds me of flying into Jackson Hole which is more like a roller coaste ride:)

@19211926 7 лет назад

Performance can't be very good on departure with four onboard in a Twin Comanche. Very cool footage.

@Sailingdoodles 7 лет назад

+fishin n flyin yeah on a normal twin Comanche it would be horrible and couldn't do it probably. But that one was a turbo Comanche and could make full power at that altitude or pretty close anyway

@19211926 7 лет назад

Sailing Doodles I like watching your videos very much. I have single Comanche time and enjoy flying them. Im in the same boat as you with no medical. Keep up the great work.

@davem5333 5 лет назад

@@Sailingdoodles that would be a very dodgey takeoff in any unblown piston aircraft. Always liked the Turbo-Twin Commanches. Thought they were a great combination of performance and economy. Would not even think of flying in there in an Apache.

@cometjockeydave4041 7 лет назад

From some of the comments here it sounds like you could get your license back in the future. here's hoping for you.

@Sailingdoodles 7 лет назад

+Comet Jockey Dave thanks. Yeah I hope so

@thegrumpygenxer 5 лет назад

Is this when you came up with the idea for Flying Doodles?

@oxman1971 3 года назад

I just ran across this video when I searched for “twin Comanche”. I’m in the process of buying one (normally aspirated), and should have it this weekend. Always hate to see someone lose their medical, especially when it’s a younger pilot. Any chance you were able to get it back?

@Jimmy47904 7 лет назад

I have to agree with you, the views are awesome in smaller planes. My buddy use to let me borrow his Aztec...until the um sold it! You have any OSH footage???

@Sailingdoodles 7 лет назад

+Jimmy D no, never went to osh. I will be doing some flying with my buddy late this summer if everything works out.

@Schnot 7 лет назад

Could you explain air speed and ground speed in the next one?

@diverbob8 7 лет назад

Most of the time, the air is moving so the speed through it is different than the speed over the ground.

+Stan Bates yeah that sounds like a fun time!

@snocrazee 7 лет назад

I can tell you really miss flying. Someday Bob you will be back. May be private or commercial but you will be behind the stick sooner or later. Just be sure to rent the plane.... If you know what I mean...

@Sailingdoodles 7 лет назад

+Bret Fields ha I know! One of these days!

@jimmyz688 7 лет назад

Check out Premier 1 Driver on RU-vid. He has a few videos on Telluride. Even an interesting approach to 27. Probably one of the best aviation channels on RU-vid.

+Mac Johnson still working on it. I need to write them another letter. Sucks thing is they want everything via letter. Not email or anything

@jake2213b 7 лет назад

I not saying to give up sailing but when you can apply to get you pilot license back you can make more flying videos of places you sail to.. Like you get the sea i you blood you also have flying in it also.

@Sailingdoodles 7 лет назад

+jake2213b yeah if and when I get my license back I will still keep making videos of the flying and sailing stuff

+jerry b haha yeah they were barely contained

@MikeFlyItAll 6 лет назад

You wanna fly again???? Eff the medical... I wanted to be a pilot and then decided the hell with all the rules... I fly Paramotors... the best kind of flying there is... skim the ground and touch it with your feet... climb up to 10,000ft and glide down... Store it on your boat, in your garage... take it with you in the car... no hangar fees and only the price of a motorcycle... check it out if you ever get the urge to be a bird again...

@tjpanbiker4135 7 лет назад

Is there a more flagrant attempt at trying to have other people pay for "my life style" and greed? "Hoping to get enough patrons so I can by a new boat...preferably a new cat." Used to like the videos, now just a sob story and old footage of being a pilot. When asked if he could return to being a pilot his answer is "he'd prefer his new career as a videographer"...of what? His new thing is to try and network using crappy live stream from the islands. As I said, loved the premise with the dogs and the hot girls and sailing (of course he did admit it wasn't in him to solo sail). Too bad it doesn't look like that's in the future. Not when you're too busy trying to beg more booze donations and getting your "Sail mate" to expose herself for patrons.
