  1. Title to your link here ForeFlight adds extra fun, excitement and safety to all flights. I used the ForeFlight app with the enhanced 3D review feature to preview the flight plan from Port Angeles to Skagit Regional airport for my next video (Pacific West by Air - Precision Approach into KBVS - Flight 2). This newest feature in Foreflight allows an interactive third-person view of the aircraft along the flight route from your selected perspective. The 3D review is an extremely beneficial feature for pre- and post-flight planning evaluation. The video length was compressed by accelerating the 10x and 20X previews up to 350%.
  2. Captured this screen shot of the Piper Cheyenne shutting down at Skagit Regional Airport during sunset while video editing Pacific West by Air (Flight 2) “Precision Approach into KBVS" My YouTube Channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAa9Aux_SGwnLHWCEtFeADQ
  3. I had the opportunity to fly this iconic plane and tour the San Diego area from the air. Absolutely beautiful weather.
  4. I will tell you something interesting related to the spoilers. I’ve been on dozens and dozens of commercial flights and I have always felt the touch down (sometimes very light and sometimes heavy). I did not detect when we touched down. Not even the slightest trace. You are always anticipating the moment of contact ... but it never happened. We were down without a trace of physical contact with the runway. I think what happened- the pilot hit the spoilers a second before touching down and I believe this somehow made the aircraft landing gear blend into the runway seamlessly without any physical jolt. Maybe it was coincidence, maybe not.
  5. Not sure of the exact flap setting on take off (hard to tell if 5 or 10 degrees). Yes, they missed closing the spoilers after decelerating. They taxied for just under a minute with the spoilers up. I kept waiting for them to close as a point to stop recording! Good eye!
  6. The first video in the Pacific West By Air series flying the Premier 1A light jet. This ten minute video highlights sights at 15,000' over the Western half of Washington State. https://www.instagram.com/tv/B43FBfbhB6P/
  7. Here is the link to an air/documentary video series I am making for aerial adventures over the states of Washington and Oregon. I am incorporating the ForeFlight navigation app that I use in my real world flying into the videos and lots more. Stay tuned. https://www.instagram.com/tv/B3VFRtVh0MN/
