King Air B100 flight - real time cockpit view with ATC! 

a tip: watch series on kaldroStream. Been using them for watching a lot of movies during the lockdown.

@Maximiliano Erik definitely, been using Flixzone} for since november myself :D

You are really good and professional. It is a pleasure to watch. Greetings from India!

Only a pleasure, Julian. Happy landings, Guido

Only my pleasure Ralph. Happy Landings, Capt. Guido

You are very welcome Mark! Happy Landings, Guido

roma45931 You are very welcome! All the best for your flying career. Happy Landings, Guido

Thank you - vielen Dank! Happy Landings, Guido

Thank you, Emre. Happy Landings, Guidio

+魏帅 Thank you! Happy Landings, Guido

Thank you very much! I am glad you liked the video, even if it is a Beechcraft and not a Piper... Happy Landings, Guido

Guido Warnecke Haha, I like anything that can "hang" in the air. A couple of days ago I was able to visit the cockpit of a B90, and I loved it! Must be realy a nice plane to fly with! Safe landings!

+David Timothy Thank you! I am a big "King Air" fan too. I will do a B350 type rating, that completes all King Airs I have flown: 90/100/200. Happy Landings, Guido

That's awesome! I'm a new commercial pilot. Trying to build my time, but that's been place on hold. 44 years old with 2 kids and a mortgage kinda does that! ;) Wish I can fly one. Like I said, it's one my favorite airplanes.

Entry in the commercial aviation is very difficult. Happy Landings, Guido

+Guido Warnecke, so true! But I'm not giving up. it has been a life long dream. All in due time!/

You are very welcome! Happy Landings in 2015! Guido

David Benton Thank you, David. I am working on a solution for this. At the moment, audio is recorded via the headset socket. Ambient noise, e.g. engine noise is suppressed. For sure, any music will be kept out of the videos, I will focus on the flying. Happy Landings, Guido

Hi Dan, that might be a mix up with the King Air types. Hi speed cruise in a B100 was 270KTAS under best conditions. Happy Landings,, Guido

We run PT6s 5000 hours. As long as any Garrett. Hot sections are done on wing in one night very easily. Fuel efficiency? Who cares? Fuel is cheap. Reliability? What’s the only engine certified for single engine commercial IFR operations? Not the Garrett. No King Air does 360 knots, period. Even a Blackhawk King Air 350 will not because it’s redlined at Mach .58. Only very high ISA deviation will make Mmo fast enough and at the same time it will rob your engine of the power to fly that fast.

Thank you Bob! Propeller turbines need a lot of electrical power to get started, this can be in the range of 7-10% of the rated power. The turbine of a B100 has 715HP, so your starter motor needs 70HP! The batteries are not much bigger than your car battery, around 40Ah. After one engine start, the battery is already discharged a lot. Before we start the second engine, we re-charge the battery with with generator of the running engine. For obvious reasons we use a ground power unit whenever available. Happy Landings, Guido

Than you very much! In fact, I prefer the smaller aircraft. But nothing against a sim ride in a B747.... Greetings to Tunisia (?). Happy Landings, Guido PS: although I understand and respect the anonymity of the web, I would appreciate if you could write your comment with your clear name - it's just more personal. Thank you!

Yes sir! My name is Ala Haj Bechir, from Tunisia north Africa, student pilot, have a valid CPL and 165 flight hours on Tecnam p2006T, and really hope to become a bizjet pilot later like you on the citation! Thank you for your interest and time! Cheers

Thank you very much, Ala. Greetings to Tunisia from Doha, Qatar. All the best for your training and for your flying career! Happy Landings, Guido

Thank you sir! Safe flights

Only my pleasure!

ricardo guajardo Hi Ricardo, it depends on the aircraft you fly. For general study purposes, you can read any B200 manual. If you want to fly a specific aircraft, you should read the SPECIFIC manual for that aircraft. While 99% of the B200's are identical, there are some changes over the years that need to be considered. Happy Landings, Guido

Hi Peter, these are Garrett (single shaft) turbines, so quite different from the usual P&W PT6 (free turbine) engines installed in King Airs. The entire engine is rotating on one shaft: propeller-reduction gear-compressor-turbine. To assure enough air flow through the engine 9 to prevent overheat) the engine always must run at a minimum speed. We have 2 settings: 1) flight: between 96% and 101% 2) ground: around 65% For cool down purposes before shut down, the engine has to run minimum 3 minutes. The clock starts ticking once the propellers are on ground RPM. This is why I pulled back on the propeller levers. On short runways this is not advised s you can achieve reverse thrust only at full RPM. If the propellers are not fully forward before landing (max RPM) a light illuminates "REVERSE NOT READY". Happy Landings, Guido

Hi Jose, I use flap only on every short runways. You take off distance is shortened a bit. Disadvantage: in case of an engine failure, the single engine climb performance is reduced. Happy Landings, Capt. Guido

Hi Wayne, Garrett are great engines, especially the -10. They require more attention by the pilot. The start process is very different from a P&W. If you have not flown the "normal" King Air's, it is actually better. If you need more info, email me anytime, address at end of video. Happy Landings, Guido

Yes, both from other aircraft and almost did it myself. This is a critical safety factor in aviation. You will see on some of the videos that I always try to re-confirm if we are REALLY cleared to cross this runway... Happy Landings, Guido

Thank you Connor! The B100 is easy to land, Happy Landings, Guido

Charles Burkholder Thank you, Charles! Congratulations on the B350 job - it is a very good aircraft. Happy Landings, Guido

Thank you. I am 21 yrs old and come from a non flying family. Very fortunate and lucky with the flying opportunities I have been able to find. Currently fly a cirrus SR22 G3 corporate part time. The king air will get me some good turbine and multi IFR experience on top of that.

Sounds great - good luck! Happy Landings, Guido

Quick question. How do you hook up the intercom audio into the video on all your videos? I want to film some ifr approaches to show some people.

The audio cable is connected to the headset. Happy Landings, Guido

David, the engines produce rated power (715HP) only at standard temperature (15 deg Celsius) at sea level. If it is warmer (I believe this was in summer, short sleeve shirt...), you have to reduce power to keep the EGT in limits. And just live with the reduced power available. In winter it is the other way around: you may over torque the engine! Some modern jet engines have an electronic system (FADEC) that controls all that: you push the throttle levers into "take off" position and the computer takes care of all. Not in these Garrett engines built in the 80's... The take off distance tables make reference to temperature and elevation. Happy landings, Guido

And your response clearly demonstrates why you're an experienced commercially rated pilot flying jet props and Citations and I'm a private pilot flying small piston aircraft in need of an extensive BFR! ;-) Thank you for your response. Happy Landings. -David

David Ekman Anytime, David! Flying is a never ending learning process. Happy Landings, Guido

I am nit sure what the situation is in the USA is. As a matter of fact, many insurance companies requires from low time pilots some hours (typically 25h) SOE Supervised Operational Experience. I do not know what the required qualifications are, this needs to be negotiated with the insurance company. If this works out for your - great! All the best & happy landings, Guido

Hi Guido, Thank you for the clarification. I will continue to build up some hours (I have 120h per now TT) and then try my luck and ask some operators in the UK to go fly with them as safety pilot. Who knows, maybe I will sit one day in a King Air like you do fly ! That would be awesome ! Grüße aus Luxembourg, Christian !

This is a King Air B100. Happy landings, Guido en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beechcraft_King_Air

thanks it looks great

YES you can. Do not waste time and get your license! All the best and happy landings, Guido

Guido Warnecke do you push the left pedal when you use diferential thrust to the left? i thinks it's the first time that i saw steering did by diferential thrust. thank u. salutations from Brazil.
