Part of my big trip from Chicago to New Orleans to Pennsylvania and back to Chicago in a Piper Comanche 180, about 2100 miles of flying over that week. This section is departure from Lakefront airport including all the ground communications, take off, some cruise, and a beautiful sunset landing in PA. Hope you enjoy.
Two comments to clarify:
1) the pier at the end of the runway is for the ILS lighting
2) In cruise I misspoke and said 2000 rpm. It was 2200 rpm / WOT for 140 kts.

Landing looked good to me , especially after 6.5 hours flying! Thank you for sharing.

thanks Gerry. The magic of GoPro stabilization dampened my bounce. Was just at BULT for a chapter meeting. There is a group of guys restoring a 1946 Bellanca CruisAir in a hanger. Really cool. Check them out next time you are down there.

@@BlessedtoFly one of the restorers; Bob, is in our EAA chapter. He gave us an update on the progress last month. Looks like a REAL project. The are making good progress with the help of a patient A&P.

Glad to see some new videos! Thank you for sharing. Always some very useful information and fun to watch. Love the 180!

I think the pier is for the runway approach lights. Great to see new videos! I need to get more out as well! Safe flying.

@BlessedtoFly Год назад

You are absolutely right! Rw 18R has an ILS approach and the plate shows MALSR lighting. I didn't think of that at the time. In my little mind I was thinking that was where ATC went fishing on their breaks. Always glad I have you guys to keep me straight.

@@BlessedtoFly I would have probably thought the same thing. Only reason why I noticed it is because SFO has the same thing and I fly around there frequently.

Love the Comanche … amazing my Mooney has the same speed and fuel burn but can’t carry the load of a Comanche!

@BlessedtoFly Год назад

thanks. l do love the room inside too. Still tough for any of us to fill the seats and fly very far though. Fortunately it’s usually just me and all the gas I can fit at the cheapest stop!

Nice 180. I have a lot of time in a 250 and in a 180 Mooney. Both engines the best. Fly higher. I flew the Mooney at 11.5 from STL to S. Jersey in 6 hrs , no wind or clouds on 36 of the 48 gals. I was 60 years younger then with a better bladder.

@BlessedtoFly Год назад

Thanks. I like to be 9K - 11K if the winds are good. I started carrying the emergency relief bottle but haven't had to use it yet but I have had a few landings I wished I did!

Are you going to the ICS Convention in August at Kansas City?

@BlessedtoFly Год назад

unfortunately my work schedule is keeping me away from a lot of fun airplane stuff. schedule is pretty packed the next few months.

@larrybair8074 Год назад

No offense meant but your music is quite load. Hard to hear your conversation.

@BlessedtoFly Год назад

none taken. I’m still learn both piloting and editing. The music ends before take off too. Thanks for your comment.

@roncrawford7128 Год назад

Sir you can do away with that loud azz noise you're calling music.

@BlessedtoFly Год назад

Sorry you didn't care for it Ron. In the editing software I thought I turned it down enough but not for everyone I see. Music options for us little RU-vidrs are limited due to copyright concerns. The choice isn't great but was the best I could do at the time. Thanks for your comment and have a great day.
