Great video Mark. The takeoff out of Salt lake was really overcast but the rest of the flight was beautiful a white cloud bed below you. Really enjoyed seeing the night landing into Midway. I think this is the first night landing you had on video with the Gulf Stream.
Getting up above the clouds never gets old. To leave behind the low overcast weather and fly along in the sunshine above it all is pretty neat. Wasn’t sure if people would like the night flying because you can’t see as much but since you and others seem to be ok with it I’ll maybe mix in a few more. It definitely gives it a whole different perspective. Thanks for watching and commenting Ben.
Great video! Looks like a lot of hard work on your part resulted in an excellent production. Just discovered your channel and now looking forward to your posts. Keep up the great work.
Wow that thing climbs like a rocket ship! No doubt some amazing views too, I always love the breakout though the tops. Thanks for bringing me along and taking the time to share this Mark. Blessings to you and your family brother. 😁
Hey Kevin! Yes, it is amazing how fast she climbs even at higher altitudes. Breaking out of the clouds never gets old. It is always so neat to fly up in the sunshine above all the lousy weather below. Happy to have you along for the ride. Sure appreciate your feedback...
Beautiful shots! That would never get old to me. Thank you for the actual flying with ATC. Love to see that process as much as possible. Stay safe! bill in Utah
Another Awesome video! Really loved the night landing! Question... I'm not a pilot but I sim alot and wondered why you can't land with the yaw damp on since its working the rudder for you? Thanks for taking the time to do these videos for us!!!
Thanks for coming along and especially leaving some feedback. I was not sure that people would like the night landing because you cannot see as much detail but I think it offers a unique perspective and I am glad that you and others seem to enjoy it. I will try to mix that in a little bit more. Also, great question. In strong crosswind situations, you may find yourself fighting the yaw damper as you try to make corrections. This is one of the main reasons why it is always disengaged for takeoff and landing. At altitude, you usually want to fly your airplane coordinated however, close to the ground while you are setting up for landing you may actually be cross-controlling the aircraft to allow the aircraft's longitudinal axis to align with the center of the runway. Leaving it on during landing can actually lead to a dangerous situation if the crosswind is string enough and you do not disengage it fast enough.
@@robertmaza4272 The pilots will put inputs in that the yaw damper is not designed to handle and if left on would actually hinder the proper control movements...
