I Flew a Plane to MCDONALDS! Tony: Great novelty video, Noel. But why McDonalds? They're horrible. Did they pay for the burger? The Chips! The Fuel? I remember flying to Kirkbride Airfield for a $100 hamburger not long after I qualified for my PPL. The aircraft parked in the same parking lot as the cars. We parked and ordered a soft drink at the bar when the a-hole next to me ordered a gin and tonic and tossed his Porsche key ring on the bar. He turned to look at me and smirked. I smirked back and dropped my Piper Warrior keys next to his. Yahtzee!

Roll on the McD's Fly Thru: ). Would love to see you do a flight to Dunkeswell airfield in Devon. I visit there when I go and see my parents and can recommend the Aviator for a snack or lunch. It has a lot of USAAF history as it was the only US Naval Airbase in Europe during WW2.

Very cool! Back in 1998 I used to fly with a few college friends from Newark, Ohio to Port Columbus airport to have dinner at the McDonald's across from the corporate air terminal. Very good memories! I flew a Cherokee 180 (N8379W. Love your content!

need to get the nose up a bit more in the warrior, landing flat is ok but it can get habit forming, and the nose gear can over time be weakened, but really like your videos and very pleased you got your PPL back.
reply

did not see the shot from your wheel camera on return leg/ landing. did it hold on to the aircraft body? ;) but very nice video. great work, and shows the effort you put in concept and execution, both
reply

Great video. also really useful for listening into your radio calls etc. Just sat my FRTOL so it's useful to see 'on the go' while we wait for lockdown / government to let us fly again.

You gave a 21p donation to Macdonalds when they are unwilling to improve terrible working standards and quality of food for less than a penny per burger? You have earned this dislike

I previously thought that my flight MEL-SIN to have lunch with a friend at the airport then fly back was decadent, but I tip my lid to your decadence as a much better use of resources.
reply

As a private pilot there is nothing like the $50 hamburger. Always to great to take a friend. I always look for places that have unique eating experiences but you went to a McDonald!

Love your videos! Im 16 and I am learning to fly at Gloucester airport (staverton) and it is so much fun Im just finishing circuits and cant wait to have my license
reply

Funny video. BTW how much do you think you spent on avgas and airport fees? Curious about this and the cost per mile as you often do this for your other airline travel videos.
reply

like your style. returning the plane smelling like fast food. but no filet o fish over the north sea. what. I foresee another in flight meal. great cabin crew
reply

I live in Norwich and have landed there countless of times. Great little airport, shame its not bigger. I always stop in that McDonalds before a flight.
reply

Absolutely amazing video. You can really feel from watching this vid, that you truly enjoy this. Please make more videos like this
reply

Love this! Although only problem is I think you should take me next time Would love to see more vids like this in the future, Noel!
reply

You would have been really annoyed if McDonald's was closed when you got there and have to fly all the way back without lunch
reply

Nice video. I had the impression that the Piper had a retractable Landin Gear, but in the vid it seems to be fixed, weird.
reply

Amazing video (and landing) Noel. You made me miss my training days in Arizona. Tempted to go get an SEP now lol
reply

Yo bro sick vids and when you said you greased it you should say battered it it's what Aviation crew say
reply

Noel, Go down to Popham Hampshire for a sausage sandwich and nice cuppa in their cafe, I recommend.
