[Stupak289]

That looks like an amazing place to live.

wow narrow runway..that could be a challenge in cross wind landing if youre only at 33 hours like me :P

I love this airport! My dad drove me here in 2007 when I was going around the area looking at airstrips. Too bad I couldn't land there; it's an amazing place in the middle of nowhere.

Man I was rough with that airplane (ground handling). I am much nicer to the airplane now.

[realtaildragger]

Nice video! What a beautiful place to live as well. Did the guy standing :)

in the hangar like that 'prop job" ?

[mikeb172sp]

Thanks. Yea his office is just above the hanger, so when I fly in when he is working it's like a very loud door bell!

i like ur flying ability and this awsome video

but can u do it again while showing ur son?

[mikeb172sp]

Yea I've flown with him a few times since this video was made. But I have to admit that it is harder with the pressure of your wife and son in the plane..

[mikeb172sp]

Thanks. Yea that was pretty much just a lucky shot. I put the camera up on the panel and pointed it at me.

Great video, theres a plug that you can hook to your avionics and you can record your and ATC's voices, but still nice quality and good vid, nice job and what a nice place

[mikeb172sp]

My camera that I used to make this video doesn't have a microphone input, but I am looking at a Cannon that does. Can you send me a link to the plug? Thanks for the comment.

[helobelow]

Yeh that was kinda cool veiw, nice landing too.

[mattyboyUKsoldier]

nice bit of flying there mike, you made me laugh with your cheesy grin just as you touched down. ive had to put my flying on hold. the fuel is just soo expensive i cant afford to fly at the moment. whats it like over in the states?

[mikeb172sp]

What's up Matt,

I just payed $5.75 per gallon US in south Jersey. I hear that it is cheaper at other airports in my area (around $5.25). My club razed our monthly dues from $62 to $70 (partially due to the fact that we are buying a newer airplane) but the hourly rate for this airplane is still $92.00 per hour TAC wet.

Thanks for the comment. I am working on rounding up an additional $2000.00 for my IFR training. I just started studying for the written.

[BeechSundowner]
