Light Sport Aircraft Done Right...
Here is a great video shot by an internet friend (“MojoGrip” on YouTube). Michael discovered my channel online and wanted to interview me about the Flight Design CTLSi.
Here is a video tour of my NEW 2016 Flight Design CTLSi with Dual Dynon Skyview! ADSB-2020 Compliant and featuring the Rotax 912iS Sport fuel injected engine
Always a fun flight, come with me to Catalina Island, 22 miles of the coast of Los Angeles. The runway sits on top a mountain 1600 feet above the Pacific Ocean. Cliffs on both sides make for an aircraft carrier type landing experience! This flight made in my former 2012 vintage CTLS
Fly with me through the busiest Class B airspace west of the Mississippi… Right over the top of Los Angeles International "LAX"
in my 2012 CTLS
Another fun Los Angeles area flight is up to Big Bear Airport in Big Bear California! Mountaintop flying at about 8500 ft above sea level this is a resort area with water play in the summer and good snow skiing in the winter! In this video I am accompanied by Charles Thomson, CFI and owner of Santa Monica Flyers. It was bi-annual flight review time so I spent a weekend flying around So Cal. This flight in my 2012 CTLS.
Come fly with me in a mint condition fully restored 1941 Stearman Biplane over Pearl Harbor!
This is the trainer that all military pilots learned to fly during the era prior to moving to fighters or bombers. Here we retrace the steps of the Japanese attack on Pearl.
Come fly with me in Betty Jane, the Collings Foundation WWII dual control P-51C Fighter! This is my first hour of dual instruction in a P51. Watch as I take control and do my first aileron rolls over Orange County! #1 on my bucket list has been checked off.
Come fly with me as I take young Sam "The Man" (whom I met here on YouTube) for his first ride in a small aircraft as part of the EAA's Young Eagle Program! This flight in my former airplane, a 2006 CTSW.
A very nice piece borrowed from YouTube about the CTLS with stunning HD film quality.
AOPA reviews the New CTLSi, featuring the new Rotax 912 ULSi fuel injected engine! I have a brand new 25th Anniversary "Jubilee" edition of the CTLSi currently on order with a scheduled delivery date of December 2013.
