I stopped before the first minute when she said she was just in sales. I respect a pilot's opinion, but... Not an opinon from a non-pilot. End.

She never said she was just in sales.

Actually, she's the real deal.

The Aircraft That Changed Aviation Forever​

Jan 16, 2025

Why is this particular aircraft so important? How did it impact Air Travel that we know today? I'm visiting the Sir Charles Kingsford Smith memorial at Brisbane International Airport to check-out his Fokker Trimotor and dig into the story of the Southern Cross and its crew. I often don't give enough respect to historical aircraft but with a few spare hours in Brisbane I wanted to see this amazing aircraft for myself and show my gratitude to aviators like Charles Kingsford Smith and Charles Ulm.

Goodbye Kevin Lacey​

Feb 16, 2025

Kevin Lacey (Airplane Repo) poured himself into the people of Tango 31 Aero Clube. He just passed away from cancer, we appreciate what he did for aviation and how he gave so much to the next generation. Tail winds and blue skies, Kevin.

Although aviation has always been an expensive pursuit, it was at least affordable until about 30 years ago. In 1978 over 18,000 new airplanes were delivered but by1986 that number had dwindled to just over 4,000 aircraft. In 1994 only 928 units were delivered. Here is my 2 cent view on some of the things that drove the cost up. What say you?

When General Aviation was affordable

After the popularity cand responses to the video on when General Aviation was affordable, I decide to make a part 2 that addresses a few comments and questions, primarily on if flying is more expensive now then years ago after adjusting for inflation. yes, by about 20% but the price of new aircraft is many times more.

Fly with me from Mesa, Arizona to New Orleans SOLO in the DA50RG (1,200nm)​

Feb 28, 2025 #diamondaircraft #ferryflight #womeninaviation


Fly with me in the DA50RG from Mesa, Arizona to New Orleans, Louisiana!
This ferry flight was very special for me. Not only was I able to fly through both sunrise and sunset, but covered over 1,200nm (most of the distance across the country).
When I ferry Diamond Aircraft for Premier Aircraft Sales, I usually fly to their Texas location (FTW) as my final destination. This time, I'm headed to FXE. Their main hub and where I used to live in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
The DA50RG is one of my favorite aircraft to fly, this one being the first for me to ferry by myself!
Hope you all enjoy Day 1 of this 2 Day Ferry Flight, as well as my 5 Days of Diamonds!

How much it cost to fly my plane across the country​

Mar 2, 2025

Hey, I’m Carlee! I'm so happy you're here!
I just flew my 1967 C172h from California to New Jersey. In this video, I talk about the true cost of this trip and of operating my plane.
Wanted to be transparent on this topic because aviation is often very unrelatable but when I explain the cost of owning and operating my plane people are often shocked.
