[justaflyguy3]

Hi and thanks for posting this awesome video. I bet I've watched it 20 times now and just wanted to say thanks. Many happy landings bro...

[msalicelf]

I am going to play that song the first time I fly solo

[floatpool]

[msalicelf]

[msalicelf]

No thank you Cliffy......it's because of you that J dog and me are the best women in the world.....BATH

[floatpool]

@msalicelf You're a sick woman Walter..but that's why we lovez ya.

[floatpool]

Thanks for forwarding this video Walter. You and the J dog are the best women in the world

[socratesprint]

I should become a pilot asap!

[haitiano1982]

nice

[JSF747]

I'm going to be flying the 1900 here in the states. I'm really looking forward to it, but I'll have PAX instead. Maybe I can go there afterwards.

[ltseem]

Karl, I think the saying is "Fly it like you OWN IT!"

[TheStrayEagle]

You're INSANE.....

I love it :)

[mrmoerder]

I dont think you should be a commercial pilot :)

[Karl0010]

Gives meaning to the saying "fly it like you stole it".

[Jazzaconda]

I hope ues know that video camera's and youtube are a bad combination ? awesome video though

[hazow22]

screw the regionals...im going to africa!

[skydive911]

It's got to be fun, bushflying like that!

But if your engine quits... you're fucked :)

[KSharp320]

God I love flying the 1900. The C model was truly built around a pilot's hands and feet. over 2000 hours on the machine and I still get excited every time I jump in my seat to go fly her. Great vid boys

[mrpilot102]

Where is this? Congo?

[dfwfly]

I agree, best video on Youtube!

[josadler35]

You guys are studs, loved the video, you have skill. I love the B1900, flown on it as passenger several times on Usairways Express a few years ago. Peace

[AirNanou]

Really Really Nice ! Good job !

[KapitanPoop]

BEAUTIFUL

[justaflyguy1]

Very very VERY cool. Thank you for sharing this awesome run.

You guys rock! Great camera work too!

Gorgeous!

Peace brothers...Peace

[upintheskyx80]

guess they wanted bird for the in flight meal! They almost had him too

[N2thedrink]

You're right, "fantastic flight". You wouldn't be doing that in the states.

[Xberto83]

Great vid, great sound! Awesome!!!!!

[YeahMethane]

Very skilled flying IMO

[jgpwlcs36]

WOW i read a comment down there and noticed a near bird strike at 1:52

youd be screwed at that altitude

[codydpok]

if i was on there i would have crapped my self

[AviationChatter]

Wow - thats pretty low for a 1900!

[justjayok1]

This reminds me why I love flying!

[pilotnyc]

Awesome video!!!

[FloatFlyer91]

that was amazing...best vid on youtube

[seanofthenorth]

This video is amazing

[furiousseb]

bonsoir  sa manque de plus faire de vol vivement cet été.... makaya

[KatoKiyomasa]

This guy is silky smooth! Great job!

[DofD]

Is that a 1900C, not a D

[spikesonthebrain]

where in Africa was this ?

[lowiddle]

Gabon .... :-)

[spikesonthebrain]

Thanks, it's your video?

[suppjessie]

(cries an ocean) I REALLY MISS AFRICA!!!! (cries a bigger ocean)

[yepes352]

que man mas bruto.....

[sshapewa]

this moron is playing with life

[pilotnyc]

idiot.

[MADBRETO]

Incredible flying. Couldn't think of a better song for the video. Top notch!

[109Mechanik]

Notice how close they come to a birdstrike at 1:54

[bigsean1016]

A birdstrike is completely out of his control. The fact that he may of gotten close to a bird does not degrade his piloting ability

[jgpwlcs36]

close one at 1:34 too

[Gobbeldigook]

Brilliant flying and a skilled pilot. Most noticeable though when looking at the landing, no excessive flare and he landed where he wanted to! But I'm intrigued that no-one has commented yet on the fact that this is a commuter category airplane...

[TTZD44]

I'd assume you are talking about the barrel roll, and technically speaking a barrel roll only loads the aircraft to about 1g... well within limits... although his employer may not have liked it, it wasn't really a huge risk

[migzz0301]

nice flying!

[Vaughan763]

that was pretty awesome!!!

The barrel roll looked really good.

That must take lots of skill and practice. So close to the trees and river too.

[mvertigo16]

hell of a video. i know you guys were listening to that song while flying!!

[wordfromthewise]

ballers

[seanofthenorth]

One of my favorite videos on You Tube. A barrel roll then right to final. I love it!

[mktplacemedia]

... why we travel, to get to do things like this, lovely piloting and shooting, thx for sharing!

[firehawk46064]

I've got a Be1900 type rating...this movie is great! .. you can tell it's filmed in a 3rd world country... nowhere in America could you fly a river like this and NOT have to JUMP SOME POWERLINES ...lol

[archer49d]

Really, you should come fly the Might Beech with me in Alaska then.

[daewootango]

I've never seen anybody handle a commuter aircraft like this! AMAZING flying!

[pilatus5000]

This is why people dream about becoming a pilot...... Nice Flying....

Thanx for sharing!

Cheers Mate

[sjemiel]

Kick the tyres light the fires yeah baby..beats flying the 737 so jealous i cant tell you whoever the pilot is

[chazd13736]

Very Nice. Hope to join you folks.

[greschekova]

What a trip.....I love it!!!

[namibnomad]

I love the pilot

[draaken8]

ok, where in Africa can I find this pilot to get a ride in that plane?

[Moki1123]

Love it!!

[N45DA]

that's a hell of a pilot, very nice.

[sltMafia]

prolly the tightest video seen in a while.. thank u

[UAL012]

Great video and AWESOME song. This is one of my favorite tracks from CCR. I would love to do some low level flying like that.

[aakko777]

i'd fly it like that if i had one, try the B350 out on x-plane 8.5. i love it!!

[eskimopilot]

I see you boyz fly alaska style over in africa. very nice!!

[foxypilot]

HOLLA to my BE1900 homies! BE1900D: twice the pilot...half the pay!!! LOVE IT!

[jwvdkiv]

Hey what did you use to keep the video so still? Great video. I am a BE1900D driver and love it. Thanks so much for the video. Nice to see the dream lives in Africa too.

The freedom of flight rules! Enjoy forever guys and gals, we are but a few in this world that can say that. Be Proud. Beech 350 & DA-50 Flyer. Best non-job in the world.

[waketurbulence172]

BEECH BOYS RULE!!! does anyone know the operator or the area that this was taken? some pretty intersting in-flight entertainment

[HighFlyingWebSlinger]

Awesome vid! My definition of true freedom

[flybackman]

Coolvideo!!! Anyone know the title of the song?

[HighFlyingWebSlinger]

[NatTurner]

You can tell when someone doesn't own the plane they're flying

[Marn1Alg]

Sweeeeeeeeeeettt. Done some cool flying on the 1900 but this tops it by far. Beech Boyz rule.

Big fight about this video on http://www.avcom.co.za/phpBB2/­viewtopic.php?t=11063&sid=6860­2ceb5bf25fbc543eec9f88babcb1

[chazflyz]

HAHA, buncha pilot egos and Monday morning pilots.

[yi668792]

I agree. Bunch of prats.

[KingAir90Driver]

Awesome video. Wish we could do that, but I'll bet those in back wouldn't like it so much!

[chazflyz]

Turboprops forever! (I'm a Saab 340 driver)

[flyingtoaster13]
