Come with me to work as we fly this Gulfstream G-IV from Bozeman, MT (KBZN) to my home airport of San Jose, CA (KSJC)! Today I am flying with my good friend Brad, who is newly typed on the Gulfstream and discusses his successful career as a contract corporate pilot. I discuss some of the cold weather considerations, take you through the preflight, taxi, takeoff and more. Please enjoy!

    One of the best videos yet šŸ”„
  • Absolutely love the professionalism on this flight deck. Awesome checklist usage and crew coordination. You guys could show a lot of people how it's done!
  • @IrishDave
    You both seem like such nice dudes. Congrats on all youā€™re both achieving in aviation.

    Great career advice. We all imagine a linear career progression, but often itā€™s is pretty disjointed and nonlinear. Taking advantage of all forms of expertise brings benefits. (As an example, I know a CFII who got blocked from the airlines just as was ATP qualified - COVID shut down all the airline opportunities - and he decided he just wanted to spend more time around jets. So he worked in Napa at an FBO simply marshaling planes, driving the fuel truck, changing blue water, etc. But he flagged any issues he saw to the pilots and owners. Boom - during one of those chats he got invited to fly with them. He is now type rated. True story. šŸ‘)

    I worked in IT at Gulfstream Aerospace Technologies in Bethany, OK in the mid to late 90s. Always good to watch a video of an aircraft I may have had a part of. Thanks, Owen.

    Your guys are hustlers, love it, got you to where you are now, and you fully deserve it. Great futures for you gentlemen, thanks for letting us ride along.
  • @ecolink101
    Brad seems like a great pilot to crew with, just a chill, nice dude. Great upload Owen.
  • @NicoBE33
    As always, itā€™s a masterpiece ! Thanks for sharing Owen. Fly safe bro.
  • @fatesandmyths
    Great video! It is interesting to watch the shared workload of two pilots in the cockpit of the G-IV. Keep videos like this coming.
  • Current tower controller here. Itā€™s a breathe of fresh air to hear two pilots in the same plane with as much chemistry and experience as the pilots in this vid. We deal with predominantly regional jets and air taxis and our ga jet traffic is low at around 10%. I got routed to this video after watching you and your buddies buy a Mustang and fly it home. Watching you left seat a Citation and then right seat a G4 was friggin amazing. I feel all these new ā€œairline pilotsā€ donā€™t have the passion or chemistry to fly anywhere as smooth as you and the two co-pilots Iā€™ve watched you fly with. Itā€™s the tiniest things that start the snowball. Attention to detail and enthusiasm will allow you to do whatever you want for as long as you want.

    Love this video!!!!! Love to see the progression/phases of the flight.
  • You do a great job with these videos. Thanks for posting!
  • Owen, an ol retired. Spent lots of time in cockpits, and totally loved it. The Jet Gulfstream were new. Flew the II & III. Absolute wonderful AC. Had a BA Captain in my cockpit , that was the initial trainer of the supersonic for them, and stated the G III quite the performer. It sure is, and ours were early era. A real treat for you.šŸ˜Š. I enjoy you videos!! No matter what, youā€™re blessed to be there. Always ā€œ humbleā€ā€¦.šŸ˜Š
  • Fantastic work, your content just keeps getting better and better. Keep up the great work.
