Gulfstream Avionics Failure Into Las Vegas! - Pilot VLOG 42 

We crossed airways with Premier 1 Driver a while back and got to talk to him on the radio...out of curiosity, where did he mention us?

P1D also very nice vids.

As opposed to figuratively seeing your car?

kramerica2k10 yeah, because people say that they can see their house in a joking fashion.

@@kramerica2k10 People say 'literally' too much but this was an appropriate use. You literally picked the wrong situation to make fun of it.

Glad you liked it! Red Flag is exactly correct...they typically have nearly the entire Air Force fleet for Red Flag. This one was much smaller, but still really cool to watch.

I have a few before that to catch up on...but its coming!

That's great...glad we could help in some way!

That's the trim wheel.

Absolutely...I am working on that as we speak.

Crazy, right?!

New subscriber here. And now 28k subscribers in 5 mos time. Fantastic job guys. I really enjoy your work.

That video is in the works...Thanks for watching!

Happy coincidence...

its a clinton pun lol

That one varies quite a bit by company. It generally goes based on what their insurance wants the pilots to have. Personality is also very critical for corporate pilot jobs...

Gulfstream term for weight on wheels switch.

Welcome!

Nothing at all. An MFD, one of many, was out. They could have dumped the breaker for it for the video. The avionics information was ported to another MFD. Like the flying, hate the BS and the click-bait.

Nice!! That's the first time we've had that happen on the radio before...I'll check the video in a bit to see if you're on there. If so, I'll be sure to put you in the final cut!

Corporate Pilot Life that would be awesome. Keep the good videos rolling! I hear you all the time I’ll have to give you a shout the next time I hear you guys.

I'm not sure if NATO was involved or not...but it was Red Flag. Perhaps someone else here might know on that one...

I do know Israel participates from time to time, don't know if it's routine though. BTW thanks for the reply. My father flew B-29's during the Korean war and my brother currently flies for pleasure with a twin rating, myself I fly a lot in the passenger seats, I like it that way.

All correct. But the personality I was mainly talking about was referring to getting a good flying job requires a good personality. We spend so much time with the person we fly with...if we didn't get along well, it would be miserable.

Thanks your reply. Answered everything.

Hey Michael! Glad you like the channel. The reason for that callout is because the auto throttle go into a "hold" mode at 60 knots, even if the power isn't fully set yet. Once they enter the hold mode, they won't move at all. So basically we are just double checking that the power is set for takeoff prior to that point. If not, then we would need to manually advance them to whatever the appropriate setting would be. This has never happened to me, but I've heard of it happening when there is a heavy headwind, so the IAS will get to 60 very quickly.

If the winds are really strong out of the East or West, we will have to take 8 L/R or 26 L/R. We like 19 R for the short taxi though.

We use Atlantic

It will definitely come up, but it is absolutely possible to get a great job with that on your record.

The Gulfstream in this video was originally fitted with the SPZ-8400 from the factory, but it was upgraded to the DU-885 system several years ago

It doesn't seem overly fast to us...haha! It takes years of practice to understand all of that information quickly. When there are a lot of aircraft in one sector, ATC needs to speak quickly to move on to the next aircraft that they need to speak to . Many moving parts, so time is precious over the air waves.

most likely...

It's just the flight ID. anyone can apply for one through the FAA.

And it's easier to say than the tail number (Gulfstream November Two Six Nine Whiskey Romeo).

I think in the LA area there’s a Shatner 😂

V1 is the speed at which we will no longer abort the takeoff. It is typically just below liftoff speed, but sometime is 10 or 15 knots below. Even if we lose an engine after V1, we will still takeoff.

I've never tried the sidestick, so I can't really say. I would definitely like to give it a try though!

The "60 Hold" is about the auto-throttles. That's where they hold the throttles stationary even if the power is not set yet, so we are just verifying that it was set prior to that. At 80 knots, the person in the left seat no longer guards the tiller. The rudders are active at all times on the G-IV. I think I answered your questions...if something wasn't answered, hit me again. I hope you're enjoying the videos!

I heard P1D gave us a shout out...but I haven't seen it myself. Any idea where you saw it?

Will do...Thanks!
