My First Training Flight In My New Airplane! 

Thanks!

It really shows your attention to detail and learning your new plane....Even doing a voice over instead of trying to talk to the camera while learning your new plane. Looking great!

Trust me it will take more than the 10 hrs that the insurance company requires to get comfortable in the plane. Not only do things happen faster and you need to learn to think that much further ahead of the airplane, you now have two of everything and you went from fixed pitch propellers to constant speed propellers and turbo charged engines. Don't forget you are flying downwind faster than most of the single engine piston aircraft trainers cruise at I'm sure you will do fine just make sure you are comfortable before putting yourself in challenging conditions.

Again...I love how methodical and proper you are in following the process. Anyone should feel safe flying with you. Congrats on the new bird!

Thanks for bringing us along on your initial familiarization flights. You are to be commended tor that! Most would say that they needed to become familiar first, and then start filming later, which leaves out an important part of the story. You are brave enough to show the familiarization process which makes the resulting information more complete and accurate. Nobody starts off being an expert but that is where the more timid start their story. Congratulations on being more accurate in your depiction!!! Thanks for your high level of integrity!! You go girl! Do not let anybody shame you for your integrity!!!

I suspect 50-60 hours will be required to get comfortable, especially because you’re combining a much faster airplane with a whole new panel. I really like the voice-over. Too many RU-vidrs try to do too many things at once, which really compromises safety.

Hey Kay I always wanted to be a pilot I’m 60 years old and I never got to accomplish the dream but watching you inspired me as well as others and I love your channel and God bless you and keep making more videos because you just made those dreams come true. again God bless you and take care and learn a plain girl.

I’m excited for you getting to know your new plane. Thanks for taking us on the journey with you.

In the pattern, concentrating, you are a pilot in the zone. Multi is a notch up in the taking care of business attitude and you got it Kay. Well done! Thanks for sharing. Cheers...

Excellent! You have a history of superior ADM and you are always ahead of your airplane. You and your Seneca will be like old friends before you know it and we look forward to your adventures and videos!

Great idea with voiceover giving your full attention to the flying and instruction

Complex and Fast. Looks like you're having fun... Congratulations!

Congratulations Kay. You take flying seriously based on your knowledge and attention to detail. You parents raised you right, and should be very proud of your accomplishments.

I saw the 1st Seneca 1 Take off in 1971 in VRB. My Dad was on the Engineering team for the Seneca 1,2 3 and 5.

I loved the video and watching you on your latest adventure in your Seneca III, Piper plane... The last time I was in a Seneca III was when my husband and I flew down to Florida from Pennsylvania with John Piper to help with their horses... Have fun Kay... Mellanie Boone

First thing I noticed was the Instructor with his hands on the controls on takeoff. Then he messed with the mixture and prop right after takeoff. Then he had his hands on the controls on landing. I am a retired Delta Captain and a CFI. I was also a Line Check Airman that flew with new Captains and First Officers. I always had my hands close to the controls but never ON the controls. The pilot flying can feel you there. No professional crew member will put up with that.

this is just ''me'' and my opinion but you are a professional already, you know enough to fly any plane even if you do have to go through some training, you know how to get it up in the air and you know how to get it back down it makes me nervous to see a ''trainers'' hands on the yolk trying to take control while you are in control. to me, and yes only me, it would be better to just talk you through everything while keeping hands off...

Congrats on the new plane. Looking forward to new adventures.

JAY BRILLIANT 👏👍👌✨ That looked SO COOL ✨ Great work ! The Seneca is AWESOME 👍 Looking forward to all the following video's ✨✨✨ Best 🤗✨

I think I told you already. My brother in law owned this model. I sat right seat many times. Awesome aircraft. He leased it back to the airport and never had to make one payment on it. Once it was paid off he donated it to a South American mission and then bought a Bellanca.

You have a new name in your head little blue sounds fitting

An absolute BEAUTY! And the plane is nice too.

I’m amazed how well and careful you proceed with your new plane. I’m don’t know you but I’m actually feeling proud! Well done; I hope you will experience lots of safe and satisfying hours in this one. 👍👍

Big difference to the Cherokee quite a bit faster is just 1 huge difference yes ? look forward to your first full flight

By Eric! Great fun! 😊

Good morning beautiful Kay! Im new to the channel and Great Awesome Content!!

New adventures await! Outstanding training flight, can’t wait for the next one.

Good job editing a clear day takeoff (2:01) into your overcast day takeoff lol. I thought the landing was pretty smooth. Lots of wind to deal with....working that yoke hard. Very happy for you that you are able to do this move up. You are a very accomplished young woman.

Hello ! I am a kind Swedish citizen guy. 🤗👍 I want to announce that I have a warm greeting from Sweden. 😃 I love all American citizens. 👍 I respect you and would like to like your videos and appreciate the personalities, talents and qualities of all Americans.👍 I wish you success with your beautiful flying experience. 😊 It is a really interesting, beautiful and fun experience. Bravo👍 Wowowo

I realize that it's your first flight in this plane, but why wasn't Eric hands-off during the takeoff and landing? You're an experienced pilot; it seems that his verbal guidance would have sufficed, correct?

great aircraft, love how the lycomings fire right up.

You are an impressive young lady!!!

Nicely done Kay! Yes, please take is slow and steady and learn everything you can about your new airplane. I never want to see you as one of those statistics after having moved on to a bigger and faster plane. 😍

Good job ms Kay on first training in new bird, as time goes you will get better of course :-)-Kenny

Wonderful, this was fun. Beautiful airplane.

Love the aircraft, thanks for taking us along, really enjoyed it.

Glad you are taking the transition into a new plane seriously and slowly . Great job.

Hey my old home airport… TME!!! Race car and chocolate chip cookies in the FBO.

Back in the olden days, ones of the first maneuvers we learned even in a twin was a full break stall. This has been changed to an audible warning or the start of a buffet hasn't it? What types of stalls were you required to demonstrate? I love your new plane. You made an excellent choice.

Glad that you are doing well and enjoying your self. I’ve never been on a plane at all so I enjoy your your videos thank you 🙏. Safe travels

Looks like you had a good time 😊

Train well, practice emergency procedures, know your airplane, and have fun! Learn the lessons of recent multi enine accidents. If you lose an engine, sometimes it's best to pull the other one back and land. And understand Vmca/stall speeds for the twin. Did I mention have fun?!

Thanks!

Congratulations on the new plane. That panel is fantastic, very future proof.

A gorgeous airplane Kay! Congratulations!

You go lady, proud of that first trainig flight. Look forward to more adventures.

When setting up a landing on final establish to proper approach. Gear down, Mixture, Props, Speed!

Beautiful first training flight!

Love the new plane, also I passed my checkride today!! So relieved that’s over, now on to instrument.

Awesome! Another rung on the ladder, enjoy!

Very nice and fun to watch. I would say the landing was great. Love the different camera angles. I will fly with you. Thanks for sharing.

I love carefulness and competency.

When I was a kid I watched a TV show called Sky King. He and his niece Penny flew in his twin engine plane. You are so cool....you can be Sky Queen 👑

You are a true Pro and you look good in Blue! Blue skies and Blessings to you.

It's just nice to watch someone who's so happy. Living your best life!

Today I am flying for the second time is a student in a single engine small piper Cherokee

Great glass layout.

and what amazing instrument panel, amazing attitude and such a great pilot

Wow Kay, Well done. You did training of your new airplane so well. I like your first training in your new airplane. You can drive any airplane very successfully Kay

Nice Plane but not a fan of the All-Glass Cockpit, maybe add a couple of steam gauges like Artificial Horizon, ASI and VSI, don't rush the transition, get a "good" feel of that plane and it's limits first before wondering off into the wild blue yonder, "never" push the weather and always calculate your "Density Altitude" at ALL Times (which I'm sure you know), they like spinning on one engine if you lose it. Take Care.

Right on ! KAY!

When you're so used to your single engine, Cherokee, a multi engine plane, takes a bit of getting used to im sure. Love your videos. Keep her in the sky & till next time.

Awright!!! Go go go!!!

Fantastic!

I worry about you in an upgraded airplane. So many pilots get a new airplane. It’s more than they can handle and they crash. Please get lots of training on the new airplane. Don’t assume everything‘s gonna be OK without training. I do appreciate your videos and you , be safe

Awesome! Beautiful plane. So excited for you!

Thanks for this Kay, did see the three greens when you dropped your wheels. G.

I recognize that view. I look at that hangar. But I'm definitely not at Houston Executive

This is awesome, congrats on the purchase of the Seneca!

Excellent video great flying see you next video

I so regret not getting a pilot license, after 20 years active Air Force. By passed a great opportunity. Sadly stuck with flight computer flight sims. Take it when and where you can.

I got my commercial license in a Seneca II. love that plane. wish I could fly one again. I'm jealous

kay thats a very nice piper seneca twin and i did not know you had your multi rating. very nice and enjoy your twin seneca and that panel looks great. i miss flying alot well i lost my medical being a diabetic but i have a few hr,s in your airplane and again congradulations and you go girl. mark

Strap a 10 lb weight in the baggage section with only 1 or 2 people and it makes it much easier on the amount of back pressure in the flare

Great video. That was a lot of work. You were constantly inputting on the steering to get the plane to stop doing what it wanted to do. A very responsive plane. I wonder if there is some wear in the aerliron cables or servos that actuate the aerlirons. Just a gap that introduces a sway moment in the plane. Could have just been a fast plane on a windy day as well. I have always liked this model plane. Just looks like a sky Corvette. Nice job flying and thanks for the tag along.

For the moment im student pilot but thats my fav plane for the future! Congratulations for this beauty!

Must be so nice to have so much engine power. Congrats

Kay, you've had L'il Red for some time now. Maybe a name for the Seneca would be Big Blue. Especially if you were in Kentucky. Go Big Blue! 😎

unless you get a good suction cup or utilize the tie downs for a camera mount bout the only way to watch the tricycle landing gear work. One thing i watched a pilot do to keep it fresh is engine out practice. He’d idle the left or the right he talks about flying the good engine. The pretend dead engine is very heavy to bank. He talked about stay level headed cool. Feather 🪶 the dead one so it doesn’t wind mill. But i think or thunk to do as a refresher to do with an instructor. A t-shirt from jimmy’s world he’s a pilot to. He has good ones GUMP CHECK the other shirt has what could possibly go wrong.? The shirt listed all the procedures G-gas, U-under carriage M-mixtures-P-props.

Woman you rock that was amazing please stay safe thank you for sharing love the video

Fun to watch you learn and looking forward to the engine out on final and perhaps a go around - those are key procedures to master - fly safe !

Congratulations on your new plane! It looks awesome with a great panel. Fly safe and have a great time!

Enjoying another great video!

I'm happy for you. Never flew that model. Looking forward to your next video. 😀

It feels faster than “little red” right away. It was a great flight. You will enjoy this aircraft and I look forward to your flights

So awesome. Lil Red must say that he gets a break. That is a big one. Safe flying and great videos. Wish you would be closer to home . Could get some lessons.

Great plane and even a better pilot. Thanks for taking us with you.

Being the Best you can Be. Love the attention to detail Kay. Keep up the Great Job!

Absolutly love the new plane

Pilot Debrief spoke highly of you and I agree, you are a good pilot and a good instructor. Kudos to you and congrats on the new twin. Thank you.

Good job! Kay. Thanks for the flight!

Hey Kay I m an AP IA and a new AD just came out today on the Seneca III, consult with your tech .

We could see the three green when you lowered the flaps.

I have to tell you are very excited about your new plane and I really enjoyed your first training flight. I love the way you explain what you’re doing and that you take us along with you. I’ve been watching you so lone I feel like you’re a really good pilot and I would fly with you Anywhere. I love your channel so don’t change please❤

Congratulations on the new Seneca.

Nice today I was in an p3c Orion is a mfg to locate submarines and I could look in the cockpit and I never was in the Orion and directly knew how to fly it i wasn’t allowed to fly bc it was in an hangar and the man who showed us bc my dad was in the military was allowed and he was stunned of wahr I all knew

Beautiful plane and very exciting. Looking forward to all your new videos..be safe!

Congratulations Kay! Looking forward to more flights thank you for sharing. "From out of the clear blue western sky comes: SkyKay"

Glad i got to see you in your new plane. Love to watch your videos.

The plane looks great and as always you're doing a great job learning how the plane reacts. Great job.
