Thanks for the Ride Greg! Beautiful scenery in Colorado. I was TDY for a few days many years ago at Colorado Springs when I was a QA for DLA. Peterson AFB had a nice static display of AF fighters, one of which was a F-106 from our fighter wing at Otis. The U.S. Space Force and NORAD is stationed there now. Lastly, I would like to congratulate you on your “Astonishing” display of “Hand Flying”. Your military flight training was obviously a great help in Zero Golf Mike’s take off and landing worthy of a gold medal.

Another great video, Greg. I always feel like I’ve been on vacation after watching! Thanks for the time and effort you put in to making these.

Greg, big fan of the channel. As a non pilot, appreciate the time you take to explain what is going on. If you think about it in a future video would enjoy some detail on how you manage hitting speed reduction targets at the navigation way points or as directed by ATC. Is it just backing off on the throttles or something more? Thanks for this great content.

Thanks for the great video. I have a flying/video question for you. I noticed when you started the time-lapse, your jet kept oscillating to the left then would level out. Of course this isn’t noticeable at normal speed. What would be the cause/reasons for this? Is your autopilot turning into the winds keeping you on track? Just interested…. Thanks again for the video and your professionalism behind the controls.

Acompanhei todo este voo que do local da saída do mesmo sobrevoou por lindas montanhas em céu azul, decorado com muitas belezas naturais e humanizadas. Parabéns! Pela competência do comandante e piloto deste magnífico vôo.

When Greg lets us know how much the fees and fuel cost were (over $4,000) plus the cost and maintenance of the jet itself , this goes to show just how out of reach this type of lifestyle is for the majority of us. I’m glad Greg can show us all these great vids!

Such beautiful scenery!!! Thanks for leaving the cameras on until Denver! As much flying as you do Greg, criss crossing the entire country like you do it must feel at times like you have the whole country in the palm of your hands and you have learned and know every square mile of it as you pass over it.
I really enjoy the fact that you explain what your plane is doing and what is going on by pointing out the various functions and readings on your PFD or is it MFD? I’m not a pilot, but still dream.
What a great world! I’m really glad to see another video from you Greg! Safe flights and blue sky’s to you!

In reply to Douglas VanWiggeren. @Premier 1 Driver Could that oscillation be a rigging or software issue?

Greg, Thanks always for your amazing videos. I notice when you include a time lapse sequence that the autopilot seems to “hunt” for the course by making regular drift right and correct left heading changes. Or maybe the autopilot interprets a great circle route to your destination as a series of straight lines instead of a smooth curve. It’s probably not noticeable in flight in real time. Do you know the reason for this phenomenon? Thanks again and thank you for your service.

Never change your intro! “The right seat is empty, come fly with me” is just fantastic! Cheers and blue skies from Brantford, Ontario, Canada (CYFD)

This never gets old for me…been an armchair pilot for years! Gracias for providing us with some right seat time sir.
Video production is sublime.

Greg, as always great video! I had a dream to fly professionally in the eighties but the timing was off. The train left the station and I wasn’t on it. Too many pilots competing for one job. My how times have changed. So went the route of A&P mechanic and here I am thirty eight years later. Your videos give me a chance to fly again in the cockpit and I thank you for that. You are a true professional airman. Blue skies to you!

Nicely done, you know, for an older gentleman! 🙂 First, Thank You for your service. Our daughter was USAFA ’88, Vance, Castle, then Offutt where she flew the Looking Glass for 7 years. She’s now a captain with a major. Lemme say that I’m an old pea-patch pilot, instructor, was an Accident Prevention Counselor (when the FAA had such a thing.) I’m now retired from flying after 45 years and a lot of hours (avionics sales engineer) and taught our daughter to fly when she was just a puppy. I always preached centerline to her and all my studs. I do admire the way you stick to it like it was a rail! You also nailed the thousand foot marker. I dunno who says you can’t do it but obviously you can! Another great flight! Thanks for the videos.

Great video as always, and thank you again for letting us ride along. As an older, inactive private pilot, single engine land, who nearly made it to his instrument rating, I find your videos incredibly instructional and entertaining, and I’m really grateful for the very technical vicarious experience you provide. If I may ask–something I’ve always wondered about regarding turbine flight planning–how do you decide on your flight profile as it regards the total length of the particular flight you’re making? I know that turbines are very much more efficient at higher altitudes, but how do you determine your target cruising altitude as it relates to the length of the flight? I’m sure that at some point, it’s more efficient to level off and gain forward speed, than to continue climbing. The one time that I was able to experience a flight in a private jet, a Beechcraft Hawker, round trip from Greensboro, NC to Warsaw, IN, on the return trip it seemed like we climbed to “cruise altitude”, but then immediately began our descent. Please comment on how you make this determination, or if you’ve covered this before, please provide a link to that video. Thank you again so very much for including us on your journeys. You literally are a hero of mine, and I’m sure you are to many others. Thank you again.

In reply to The Flight Level. I like how he lightly jazzes the wife with 'premier 1 rider is on board so you know what that means the right seat's empty'. I'm in her club too; nervous flier.
