Marchetti S-211 Upset Recovery Demonstration & Flight 

I got a smile from ear to ear just watching you having so much fun. That was amazing!.. Credit to the instructor, he seems to know his stuff.

You really handled that jet... nice. That instructor had me feeling relaxed and confident. Awesome pilot.

I watched this video for the first time today, i really enjoyed it very much. I also had a grin on my face lol. There is no know drug on earth that can make a person feel the way Aviation causes the soul to just shine brightly and smile. Thank you and Chris for sharing the experience. 👍

Chris was a very relaxed instructor. The s-211 seemed pretty docile through stall entry and spin entry.

The best one yet. Great job Bobby. Having your name under the canopy was a nice touch.

bobby, the joy on your face was infectious, you had me smiling, great job.

That was beautiful... to see a fully fledged and experienced GA pilot smile like a baby with his new toy! Well done, Bobby! 😄

👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 That would be a dream come true, only thing better would be the L-39. That instructor was great too!!

That was F*cking awesome!!!! It must have felt so good to fly. I have been waiting to see you flying again, and I am so happy for you! Well done Bobby!! It felt like I was in the cockpit with you. You have so earned this!!! Thanks for sharing that with us all.

Very cool Bobby, thanks for letting us watch you have fun!

I've watch this several times. it never gets old. You need to do more of these Bobby.

Practicing unusual attitudes in a that aircraft= Fantastic. Nice work

Bobby, I am a sailor and not a pilot. I have enjoyed Sailing Doodles over the years, but this channel is simply amazing. Your passion and enjoyment of aviation shine through. Well done!

The grin on your face was priceless!

That was fantastic. My late Uncle used to take me up when I was in college and it was always a blast. I never used the rudder, he always had his feet on them. There were times when he'd want to shake me up a bit by pushing left or right, and I'd attempt to correct with the ailerons. Needless to say, it didn't go well, and after a moment he'd ease up on me. I'd look over to see the biggest grin on his face. I sure do miss him.

Bobby- so GREAT to see you back in the cockpit....congrats w/ the new channel.

Bobby, you are a lucky guy to fly in a jet like the Marchetti.....man what a thrilling experience that must have been!!!

Hey Bobby! Just watched you sortie in the Marchetti. Thanks for taking us along. BTW, smile on my face was at LEAST as big as your. Hats off to Chris and a huge thanks for your service. What a great instructor!

Bobby! U are one lucky duck!!! That was a blast can’t wait for the next one!!

That was possibly one of your best episodes yet Bobby - Sailing or Flying! I was grinning almost as much as you throughout the flight! So freaking cool.

What an instructor ! It seem's to be possible to every one of us to hold a jet trainer aircraft with confidence under his teaching.

Wow! Great video. I know that feeling. First time my buddy took me on aerobatic flying in his T-34 and he had me holding the stick and talked me through my first barrel roll. Permanently plastered ear to ear grin.

Now THAT’S just Bad Ass ! What an incredible instructor Chris is. I’ll be in contact with them, before the summer is out. As a native Texan, this is a GREAT reason to visit my home state ! Great one Bobby ! 🇺🇸🛫

Really a nice intro to the S-211. Thanks.

One of the best videos of this kind of experience I've seen...

Bobby, that was awesome! That is a permanent smile you had there.

Great fun!! I was surprised by how slow they fly! wow what a thrill! great vid!

Bobby is like a kid in a candy store. Great to see you smile as large as Texas.

Ok Bobby that was totally Badass!!! loved it. That guy seemed like a real cool dude too.

Great Job Bobby, I thoroughly enjoy that, not as much as you ! I Myself was smiling the whole time !

Chris is a superb instructor, cool, calm, that is what United States military will do to you, Bobby you are one lucky guy to fly an Italian masterpiece with an incredible instructor, your landing was superb. KUDOS TO OUR MILITARY VETERANS WITH BLESSINGS

That was so cool they put your name on the cowl as a pilot onboard....

Love the name on the bird at @7:50. Thanks for sharing one cool video !!! Fantastic flying.......!

Ear to ear grins watching this video Bobby! Great video!

Top Gun Bobby. Great reference to have as something to vouch for you when reactivating your medical. This was really well done. We need you in the skies.

Great job Bobby there is a smile on my face and I imagine yours stayed for days.

Right after the landing, what ATC said to that cessna had me cracking up😂😂

haha that grin.. seasoned pilot grinning from ear to ear = fun

Ya got to get your med back, that smile is priceless.

Oh my God Bobby that must have felt amazing... I got to say this much you looked good flying nice to see you happy in the air

I gave my flight suit to my wife's brother in law. Only one leg will fit. Boggies at 3 oclock. Fox 2. You are a natural top gun

That is one very nicely harmonised jet aircraft.

Many good memories in the S211 during my basic training days. Thanks for sharing your experience.

The smile on your face while piloting was awesome! Great job! I know you miss being a pilot...

Great job, that was lots of fun to watch.

Nice job on the video and an even nicer job on the stick. Thanks Bobby. Very cool stuff.

That smiles tells it all Bobby, great job and awesome video bud!!!

I think you really miss flying Bobby. Never in all of your videos I have watched sailing or flying have I seen you so animated smiling and happy. Time to get back up there and fly!

So much better than Sailing Doodles, after 31,000 hrs I still get that grin.

Woah, way to top all of your videos with this one! What an amazing experience. Things go from "this is neat" to "OMG I'm in love" right at 19:19 which was awesome. Nice flying, too. Gotta love it when you impress the instructor.

Amazing, so happy you have that flying smile again.

Great video and job Bobby. You did look a little nervous on the landing but dude you nailed it! Like this new channel so much and very interesting. I do feel this has been one of the best so far you’ve put out, plus the Pilot was very knowledgeable and definitely knows how to explain things in layman terms and his instruction were amazing as well.

Sweet little jet! I'm envious!

Great flying and you smiled like a kid with a new toy, like we say here. Congrats and thanks for the great video. Greetings

Bobby, I think that was your best video yet!

Best instructor ever !

Great job Bobby . Happy for you that you had so much fun piloting the Marchetti S-211 training jet .

Awesome video Bobby! It was obvious you truly enjoyed yourself.

Wow man, my fav so far, nice job Bobby.

WOW Bobby back in a Jet! I'm still smiling for you. Like riding a Bicycle. You still got it!

Great to see a perm-a-smile on your face, awesome vid.

He is a darned good instructor. Definitely not primary instruction going on there. Would love to get some time with him. Awesome!

I love this jet! Great instructor too!

What a rush! I've loved every one of your videos I've seen, but this one was the best so far. Of course I'm a latecomer so I'm seeing them out of order, but still it's quite a thrill flying vicariously through your videos. Thanks for making these.

My favorite video to date. Great job Bobby!!!

It is fantastic to see you flying again. Excellent video.

Man this took me back to my training days, I loved UAT.

Awesome video, Bobby! Loved how Chris provided detailed instruction for all the maneuvers. Gotta team up with PD1 and Steveo when they are in town.

Very cool Bobby, I was smiling with you!

Bobby, I am so happy for you ! Great piloting !

Awesome Bobby. I would love to go up in a plane like that its on my bucket list. Your smile says it all. Thanks so much for taking us with you on this awesome experience. Safe travels back to Thailand have a great day!!!

Awesome! You are one lucky guy! I'm still smiling as I type this.

completely amazing flight great flying.

Nice episode...,stunning plane! Fortunately you've got ears otherwise your smile would have gone all the way!😀

Nice one Bobby, You looked so happy. I like the video. thanks :)

This was absolutely AWESOME!

Thanks Bob. I got to get to Texas and fly this.

I haven't seen you grin that big since Laura showed up to the boat in VC.

I just watched this video again.... I don't think I have ever seen you grin like that! (well, maybe that Christmas when you were 4 years old and we got you a jeep. You though it had to be pushed. We told you to put your foot on the gas.. then it shocked you by taking off. Your grin was pretty big then). So glad you got the chance to fly that airplane and amazed you did so well after not flying in so long. Very nice pilot you were with too.

Wow! what a great video. Excellent experience!

Good job Bobby...Great instructor

Bravo Zulu, Bobby. The glare from the grin on our face burned out my computer screen.

Awesome video, I'm glad you flying again! Looked like you really enjoyed flying that jet!

Best video yet...that was awesome!

WOW....I'll even say it backwards...WOW!! Feels good to be back in the cockpit at the controls of a JET. You need to put that flight in the Log Book.

Good stuff Bobby! Keep it comin'!

Awesome job Bobby! Your camera placement and shots are spot on...felt like I was flying with you!

Thanks for sharing your experience here. What a neat trip this one was. ♥️🇺🇸♥️

that looked like one heck of a lot of fun!

Great video as usual great stuff. You look genuinely happy.

That was awesome! Great job!

Very cool to see your inner 10 year old! You have the best job in the world!

Worked on those for 7 years. Had so many little issues. Aircon and brakes and hyd pack leaks. Was a pain but kept me employed.

Nice to see you as PIC.

That was so awesome! It showed so well on your face. Nice job.

That, was amazing Bobby..awesome video!

By far my favorite flying RU-vid to date. Keep it up, and go get your certificate back.

Great video!!!! One of your best videos. Thanks.

Bobby, that was epic. You are one lucky bugger. That was the best Flying Doodles vid yet. It will be very hard to overshadow that one. Keep them coming. Keep sailing as well. Dude!

That was very cool! Thank you for letting us live vicariously through you.
