Couple of things, excellent video!! great job. You guys inspired me to return to flying after a 20 year hiatus and today, 25 Aug, I passed my private helicopter exam. For those who know and, those that don't, this video is poetry in motion (to me). Thank you very, very much.
If you are active military like i think you are, then you are in a better spot than I am. get your ratings while you are in and let the military pay for it under the gi bill. there are many flight schools set up to do it that way. they'll even help you with the paperwork.
Great Video! I want to get my commercial pilot license and Precision is on my short list of schools I want to attend. I have heard only good things about Precision...would love any info you could give me about them and their training.
great video. The very last from always makes me chuckle cus it fells like a greetin card all you would have to do is throw up a merry christmas in yellow letters and it would fit right in. I almost expect it to happen every tie cus it just feels like it. I like it better that you didn't though.
Funny - yeah, it is a bit like a Xmas card. I originally made it for my company's Holiday Party - it was the last of four short videos I presented, so yes, I suppose it has that holiday card feel. The hilarious part is you are completely right: in the version I presented, it DID say "Merry Christmas" right at the end. Funny stuff. ... I'm going to post a new video I cut together as a trailer for THIS year's holiday party. Much faster pacing. Watch for it. c-
I think 155PH was the one they were working on buying just when I left. Got my commercial in 144PH and couldn't handle the whole flight instructor thing at the time being as quiet of an individual I am and decided to go back to the glorious job of driving truck til I either figure something out or get to where I can handle the flight instructor bit. Those dang flight hours are just a real pain. ha ha But again, nice video. Are you the one flying?
Got my instrument and CFII in 144PH - it just keeps chugging along! I shot and edited the video, so no, I wasn't the one flying - but some day that'll be me! Come back and visit Precision some day. I'll send you an email to your k6 yahoo account. CB.
you paid for all that flight training, and you're driving trucks?? I'm a quiet type too, but like anything you will definitely get used to it. You only need to instruct for a year before you're out on your own. Go for it dude, trucks suck, helos rock.
I know, it's pretty stupid isn't it? All that training, and here I've been driving truck. My weight is another issue. It got to be so embarassing when me and the instructor would go to take off, and on a hot day full of fuel, we had to do a running take off from the pad. So I've been trying to lose a lot of weight before I get back into it as well. I'm pretty sure that now I would be able to be a flight instructor and get those dang flight hours. I really miss flying somethin fierce!
well I hope you find a way to get back into it. you gotta suck it up for a while before you really get to do the type of flying you want to, but if you stay in that truck, you're gonna be sucking it up for longer. Good luck.
0:53 - 1:00 is some of the best flying I've ever seen.
