Good morning from Minnesota! Fun episode!

[ericfoerster]

That is some extreme rudder work. RIght foot to the

[johnbutler]

haha OMG dude that thing is insane! It's been interesting to watch your progression back from your taildragginfun days! I thought it was crazy what you were able to do with your original Highlander

[stevemyers]

love to watch your attack on the STOL courses - also really enjoy you talking about the yamaha engines and how they will work for GA pilots - peraps hit on float plane application with the Yammys as well as X-Country - Float flying we might want full power sometimes for up to 1Min.... mostly only 30 sec. Turbo for the mountain flying and X-Country crew and non-T for mid-western and south group. You ave a ton of knowledge - like to hear from you sometime Steve - thanks for the vids. Appreciate.

Steve, it takes a special kind of pilot to do what you're doing, but you've been doing it for so many years now. You really got it down. You are still number one!

That planes got balls. Excellent power to weight ratio. Id love to go do aome crazy stuff. Id help work i flew some id love this. That turbo sounds nice .

[smurfsky]

impressed that you're doing this in thick shoes!

[aaronbugaiski]

Very nice piloting. Absolutely LOVE the Yamaha engine in your bird. Im working on a zenith 750 STOL and i would love to use a yamaha engine in it. Don’t know if anyone has done it yet. But it would be awesome!

Real flying at it's finest!!! Got a question...what is the smaller lever with a black knob directly underneath your flap lever? Is that for trim?
Keep the blue side up! Best wishes! 🇺🇸 🍻

[danmcburney]

Gosh this was a short one, you guy's must be on the road !! PLUS we didn't get to see Sara !!! 🥺😅
Thanks for a sneak peek though !!!! 😁❤

[jamesg]

What is the small lever near the flap handle he keeps manipulating prior to landing? Spoilers?

Я потрясен что могут Американские пенсионеры. Вот бы полетать с таким на Алтае.

[donaldbustell]

How does this low level over flight over people on the ground mid course lay against the "500 foot" regulation? I'm thinking of the Trent Palmer fiasco.

Listening to this, now I know why the Idaho backcountry is within years of being off limits to general aviation. With little if any useful load, and no pactical applications for camping, the future for others to follow in very quiet access is about to end.
