IFR in a Cessna 150 with NO GPS!

Dakota 2.0

Awesome Colton. Congratulations! I am an Aviation guy myself. Safe flights ✈️ always. 👍🏻

A Socata Rallye in the background!😲😳 They must be rare in the States🤔

That was fun! Keep up the good work. Stay safe. 👍🛩️🇺🇸

Happy to see this come up on my feed. Nice video. Thanks.

Hey that’s my boyfriend!! So proud of all his hard work to get to where he is in his career!

Hey, I have 1.0 of IMC sitting next to that guy, in that plane on the way back from Chicago 😂.

Colton is an amazing pilot! What he’s accomplished in such a short amount of time, at his age is a testament to his love for aviation and will hopefully be an inspiration for young aviators.

I learned b4 GPS.... VOR, DME, Localizer and ADF, and gasp, even timed approaches with zero instruments.

My Dad was kicked off an airport after having a discussion about the pattern. He had an engine failure one week after the discussion. They landed in a bean field. we found out stock T-Craft carb heats don't work very well!

I like the video content, but I hate to be the guy who critique the radio usage really could use some updating. I’m sure you’re an Atp or CFI but there are people listening to you and thinking they could take shortcuts like you do.
My Cfi was an old Atp pilot Air Force pilot and now just teaches and shortcuts you would tell me will get you killed and it’s not correct usage of Radio phraseology telling somebody you have the numbers well what numbers do you have Zulu do you have alpha? You know what I mean.
This is a great video. I’m sure you’re outstanding pilot but there are a lot of people watching this.

I've a soft spot for the C150/152s, spent a lot time with my dad in them, happier times👍😊💜👍 Interesting to see you using it to the fullest.

In Great Britain, I well remember them being as low as £15k or less (if I had a better memory), now a nice one is a shocking £50k 😲😲😲

👍✅ Love it, tks👏

I got my pilots license at a Cessna pilots center at Santa Maria airport CA in 1975 and we had charts and a VOR and got where we where going with no problem. Could always request flight following. Triangulated 2 VOR's and got our position that way. see ,easy and fun. Learn how to do that and do not rely completely on such modern things as a GPS. Have fun 150"s are great airplanes.

One of my favorite videos from Flying Doodles. This new host is doing a great job!

Very nice I bought a C150J as a student in 1988. For model year correctness 1969 = J and 1970 = K; some K's came off the Cessna production line later in 1969. Check Cessna or the AOPA serial # listing to verify. I have a C150M 1975 first year for the "M" but rolled off the line in late Dec74, but its built as a model year 75' M. The FAA data uses production date not Model year.

Great flight...brings back a lot of great memories of training in a 150 until moving up to the "big trainer'...the 152!!!

Good that he hanged on to it as the prices of these sky rocketed after 2000 can't touch a nice one for less then 70k which is crazy. I guess we didn't know how good we had it before 2000.

I guess Bobby doesn’t have time to show up for doing flying doodles, you never seem to see him on here at all at anytime, and always has someone new.

great video!
I have about 70 hours in 6187G. Colton helped me finish out my PPL.
87G is a fun ride. Being the plane i took my private checkride in means she has a special place in my heart and I love seeing her shared with the world here.

Colton is wise beyond his years, is a great teacher, and I'm impressed watching his career progress.

great plane. great guy. great episode.

We have a 150M that I purchased a few years ago for my kids to learn to fly. Youngest son is using it the exact same way to built time cheaply to get to an aviation career. We have a pretty stacked panel, though, with 2 G5s and a 530W that came with the airplane. Couldn’t touch the price we paid for it at today’s prices…plane has nearly doubled in value since we’ve owned it. I love flying it myself when I get the chance with two other airplanes in our fleet (Bonanza A36 and Cherokee Arrow).

My hangar is right around the corner! Cool to see you on the channel. Did you do a second session with Michael's plane?😢

Excellent Episode. I enjoyed the casual conversation

We love Colton! Yay!

OMG NO GPS! OMG WOW SO COOL! OMG OMG!

👍🏼👍🏻❣️❤️

Big frikin deal…..
Used to be done that way every day….
Don’t pat yourself on the back too hard….

I am enjoying watching the new host. I hope the new videos continue.

Her name was Lola…. She was a show girl.

Problem is the price of upgrading to the cheapest certified GPS is $10000.

Who’s the chick with all the tattoos 🤔? Future airlines Capt?

YU MONK YU TALK TOO MUCH.

Emma, how do you record the audio? Do you patch a cable from your camera into some kind of intercom input? I'll be renting a plane for my film and I want to get audio like yours'.

When I learned to fly IFR gps wasn’t invented yet.

Whatever happened to Dakota? 😢

We have two flight schools at my non-towered airport and they also tend to do “bomber” patterns in Pipers and Cessnas. That is a problem when you have 300-400 hour CFI’s who have little to no experience with actual emergencies. Myself and the other more experienced pilots know and understand about keeping the airport within gliding distance…it is frustrating!

Really?

Wow, I really enjoyed it when my Dad took me flying in a 150. He always cussed in the cub because he could never get it to quit floating. 🙂😁

Great video. You are a natural interviewer and have improved Flying Doodles immensely.

Ha ha. All of us above 45 years old and I've had their license more than 20 or 30 years just laugh at titles like this🤣💦.
Nice plane, I don't think there's not a single pallet in the world it does not have a soft spot in our heart for a 150/152

50lb wheel pants? What them things made out of! 😂

I love Flying Doodles again! Good work.

Loved those 40 deg flaps on the 150. Perfect for 1800’ of grass with trees on the end.

Nice stuff, some great words of wisdom and logic here. For lean, don’t they recommend 3000’ for safety reasons? You promised the lady an approach, and said “whatever you want,” then denied her the approach. Tease! Anyone flying with 4” of visible ice that thinks they’re respecting ice and in control is on a suicide mission.

S.O.S.

Impost

Been flying 55 years now, never have used GPS. Been asked why I don’t use GPS, my answer is always the same,
It’s not necessary.

I loved Dakota

Great job and loved that great landing. 🤠

I haven't started watching yet. Just read the title. OMG I MIGHT HAVE TO REMEMBER HOW TO USE A VOR!!!

nice video thanks

Oh, the humanity, no GPS. Pilotage and dead reckoning work fine, it’s a 150
