This is the first time I've ever seen your eyes and they are quite beautiful your flight skills are amazing my name is Johnny one I live in the Northwoods of Wisconsin
@@FlyWithKay Kay? Are You Doing A Las Vegas Flight Anytime Soon? And Will there be a video of it? .Thank you i love all of the videos, how’s pops and mom doing?
She is just the Consumate professional I am so happy when I've watched one of Kays Videos, Well don Kays Mom,. not too shabby without "Pops" either bless him.
To answer your question, I saw Pilot Debrief giving you a huge thumbs up for briefing properly before every flight, regardless of anyone else with you. I’m sure Mentor Pilot would think the same, thoroughly professional throughout.
Kay, I am an 83 year-old former private pilot. I cannot tell you how much I enjoy flying with you. Back when I was still training, I was on a cross country with my instructor . While cruising, I commented that I enjoyed the part of flying where I could take in the scenery. He replied that if I was relaxing, there were about ten things I should be doing that I was neglecting. Words to LIVE by. You keep me aware of that. Thank you. C.E. Lear Parachute, Colorado
Beautiful weather, Beautiful Seneca, Beautiful pilot! As a pilot this video for me was so enjoyable, thank you Kay! Clearance delivery used excellent technique, she even paused midpoint for 1/2 sec. with transponder code. I am a retired enroute controller, you may abbreviate the C/S after initial contact any time you wish. If there is a similar C/S its best to use full C/S until they leave the freq. For snacks dense but soft granola bars minus anything that might melt, yum. When you were on final the controller got an alert based on your rate of descent and distance. He is required to notify you, part of the FAA's blanket safety enhancement. Cheers!
Kay, I flew my Arrow II from Van Nuys to Monroe, Louisiana in one long day! MEA was 11 thousand and SoCal airspace is the busiest airspace I’ve ever flown in. Enjoy yourself and I love your videos!
Great job, Kay and Mystick. I loved our flight over the desert. Looks like you had a great landing! I am happy for you and proud to be a Kayviator! Keep up the good work!
I am really impressed with your editing. I also especially like the camera in the back of the plane underneath it shows a wonderful view. Thank you so much for taking us with you and please keep in mind, it's all about the journey. The angels are flying with you.❤
A great video of your first solo cross-country flight in MystiK! Thanks for explaining the instruments and talking us through them. It was a really enjoyable watch! My first airplane flight was when I was about five years old. My father was considering taking flying lessons, so he took me along to the airport for his discovery flight. We flew in a Piper Cherokee 140, and from that moment on, I’ve loved flying. I’ve never really enjoyed flying in large commercial planes, but I’ve always loved the smaller ones! That first flight was a very long time ago, but I cherish that memory.
Thanks, Kay, for another great video. So proud of you doing your first real solo in the new plane, no need to rush it, just wait until you are ready. Great landing. I did notice that in the last 15 minutes or so of your flight it looked like your luggage or whatever that black thing in the back was, it started to push the upper section if your rear seats forward. Might want to think about tying it down, would hate to see you in some severe turbulence and that thing come flying forward.
AWESOME!! After watching many of your videos with Mystic, every time I use my HP printer I find myself calling it 3-0 hotel poppa.😆Loved the Mystic tour pops gave and look forward to more flying adventures!!
Kay I am glad that you talk about your panel. And explain things on what your panel stands for the directions. In what you got. I don't know how to fly. A neighborhood and if I ever wanted to fly. There's a lot of gadgets on the plane. That I probably wouldn't understand. So that is nice of you.That just playing everything to touch❤❤❤
Hi Kay, I got my multi-engine and instrument in a Piper twin Commanche many years ago. I remember synchronizing the engines by sound. You are correct that it is almost impossible to explain what that sounds like to someone who has never heard it. I remember a few years back flying commercial in a Boeing jet with the engines on the tail. I was seated in the back of the plane, and I could hear that the engines weren't synchronized. They were eventually synched up, but it drove me crazy until they were.
The B727 was powered by JT8D twin spool engines. It would be unlikely to get the engines synchronized as you might get the N2 shafts all in sync,but the N1 compressor shafts may not be, or vice versa
Love tracking you on FLIGHT RADAR 24 and even catching a few radio calls on LiveATC at the same time! My phone uses the YOU'VE GOT MAIL announcement for one thing only: FLIGHT RADAR informing me that you are firing up your radio in preparation to take Mystik on a joyride. Also, I love seeing some of the CRAZY CRAZY patterns ATC has you fly as you descend roundy roundy roundy towards airport landings! For your pre-taxi checklist, you need to add something about lowering your arm rest!!!!! 😂😂😂
Kay, I was number 10 to like this video today. I am so very happy for you! Great flight! I'm looking forward to your take off in the morning. EXCELLENT landing BTW, with winds and all, bravo! Grab some snacks for the next leg before bed, and you'll be all set with a coffee in the morning! ❤💯 Edwin.
Been waiting to see your first solo in that twin engine, you were so awesome. Your parents must be so proud of you too. I pray that you have many more safe flights and enjoyment in all of them. Stay safe!
Nice flight Kay, as for headsets, I'm old school 🏫, I like my DC (David Clark) headset and my Ray Bans ( with wired arms), can't beat that combination for flying, my personal views. 😊
Congratulations on your first solo on the twin Kay. I am not an aviator, never have been, but just about any place in New Mexico will jostle you around in the afternoon. I love the new long format of your videos.
Coolest flying memory: Took an intro aero tow (off the grass) hang gliding tandem flight at Kittyhawk, North Carolina on April 14th, 2012. Six days later, I began lessons 70 miles from home. Waiting out weather & scheduling issues through lessons, I took my first solo flight on September 24th, 2012! I've done dozens of flights since! Flying like a bird on tandem OR solo are the most fun things I've done in my long life! I highly recommend off-the-grass for first-timers. Running off of a mountain to launch ain't for sissies! 😂😂😂😂😂
Hi Kay, I'm so proud of you my friend, watching you fly you're first solo in Mystik was absolutely amazing. I've just came home from being in hospital and feeling low and watching you and Mistik has cheered me up so much and I want to thank you so much for that, Take care my friend 💖💖
i know i'd never be able to afford a plane, but your videos always make me jumped back in to my trusty X-Plane 12. the view of cockpit always got me excited, to me there's something about all those instrument that attract me most
Love your chain Kay....Lil'Red and Mystik. You are such a Joy to watch. I'd lLove to meet you anytime your in Phoenix. I work for TSA so I'm there....hehe
I am sorry that I was one of the complainers about pops. I enjoy just watching you fly. Your voice is very calm and I don't find it too fast. Enjoy listening to the radio transmission and in your decision making. First time really seeing how nice the inside of the airplane is! With no co-pilot the plane looks so spacious. Enjoy and be safe.
Funny fact, as soon as you started talking the music you listen to I was going to suggest you try "The Warning" as I'm a "Warning Army" member. You HAVE to see them in person when you get the chance. Oh yeah, I'm 73 and love their music!! Great seeing you fly again!
I'm enjoying your flight, l think you are a great Pilot, and you have a great plane to fly in, have a great time whare ever you fly & take care whare ever you go.
Kay, I love your vids and want to fly with you as much as I can. The audio from the radio is a little high when you are talking and distracting but I can make out most of what you are saying. I especially like the way you fly with oral step by step of your actions. A very good instructor! (and beautiful, too) I guess you got all your looks from your dad! Your mom still has hers! LOL
The Colorado Springs airport has a restaurant called the airplane. There is an old fuel tanker that is part of the restaurant and you can eat in the airplane. Awsome food if you ever go to Colorado.
Always check on a new frequency with your full call sign. There may be another aircraft on that frequency with a similar call sign. After that you can abbreviate it. Also, when you check on a new frequency you can say, "Houston Center N484HP at 8 thousand requesting 10 thousand". (former ATC at NY Center... now retired living in the Houston area)
I really loved this flight. I am not a pilot but it was really fascinating to hear you talk out your process. Congratulations on your first solo cross country in your new plane!
Coolest flying memory: Actually is my first flying memory so I guess it would be my introductory flight. My uncle was a physician and owned a Piper Apache twin in the late 60s. He took my mom and I up for a VFR flight to Indianapolis for lunch then back for a cruise around the county before returning back to our local airport. I got to sit in the right seat (I was probably all of 8 or 9) and I think I might have even gotten to take the yoke for a couple of minutes. I fell in love with the idea of flying that day (my mom not so much due to air / motion sickness) but the prospect of ever becoming a pilot just felt like a complete impossibility. It was only for the “rich” like my uncle. When I joined the Navy in the 80s, I had hopes to be stationed at / near naval air stations so I might explore the possibility of flight lessons but it wasn’t to be. Now that I’m retired, I have the time but not so much the finances, but you have inspired me to again seek options to become a pilot, or at least opportunities to fly with others. I’ll let you know if the dream becomes a reality.
Good job flying and documenting your journey! I’m looking forward to seeing more, I’m really interested in being a pilot and plane owner but so far can’t overcome my fear of gravity.
Exciting, your first solo! 😄 Pity that the refresh rate of your left and right digital screens don't work fine with your GoPro cam, leading to fading images. Your center screen doesn't have this issue. Strange that I never noticed this before though.
Loved it Kay - I had NO doubts for your beautiful flight - SO Proud of you here in SE Texas Your one of our own here in TEXAS! Your very safe pilot, considerate of all in the air on the ground and esp ATC. I have heard them say, have not seen you in a while, glade to have you... 99% of ATC seems to be great folks,, Thanks for sharing Tell Pops, and Mom hey for us - as always keep the BLUE SIDE UP! Bear ❤💯🙏🐻 see ya on the next video :)
There have been a few accidents due to ATC confusing tail numbers that are similar, including one where the last numbers were identical. So, taking the time to give the complete number is a good idea. I'm not ATC, but I keep track of such things.
Wow, I can't believe that you mentioned "The Warning", I was seriously about to drop you a comment and suggest them when you mentioned them yourself, their last four albums ("XXI Century Blood", "Queen of the Murder Scene", "Error" and their newest "Keep Me Fed") are all fantastic, not a single song in the complete collection that I dislike.
I've only watched a few of your videos Kay, but I like your professionalism, happy spirit, and am envious of your plane:) When are you going to the airlines? Also, Kay, your so awesome, you can drop the background music.
I love flying in the desert, though I'm more into flying low and slow. But I've taken my S-12 up to 14,000ft MSL and that's cool too. I have limited complex aircraft time myself and I've only flown IFR once, by accident. It was winter and a sudden storm popped up out of nowhere when I was flying through the mountains. Luckily I had the foresight to put GPS, ADS-B in and AHRS in my ELSA and I was able to make a safe landing. On an 800x30ft dirt strip, no less. I figured it was safest to attempt a landing I had done hundreds of times before rather than landing at a municipal airport I wasn't very familiar with, even though I had a couple of nearby options with longer, paved runways and approach lights. That was my backup. The GPS and AHRS allowed me to fly a reasonably precise approach and I set a minimum of 75ft AGL for visual acquisition of the runway. If I hit 75ft and couldn't see the field, I was calling a missed approach and diverting. But as I descended through 100ft AGL, I spotted the runway and I was right where I needed to be. A little high, but that's what a forward slip is for. Better than being too low. I had ab initio aerobatic flight training and unusual attitude recovery training which taught me to trust my instruments. Also, A&P school taught me the theory of IFR flying. It is kinda baffling to me that instrument rated pilots frequently succumb to spatial disorientation. But then again, as someone who has survived a stall while turning onto final at 300ft AGL, I'm kinda baffled at how many pilots die from that too.
Still weird the way props appear to not turn as fast as they should. Similar to wagon wheels in old westerns running backwards! Great camera work feels like we're right with you, Happy landings, Kay-Bird....
