The Volunteer Pilot

Watch this experimental aircraft escape Lakeland like it owes the tower money 😂

(Pilot brain: "Don't stall... don't stall... did I leave my coffee on the wing?")

👇 THE FULL SEND:
00:07 - The "oh crap" pre-takeoff checklist
00:15 - Full throttle & fabric vibrating like a washing machine
00:25 - The "no going back now" liftoff
00:38 - Victory wing wiggle (100% planned, zero% sketchy)

Taking a -powered airplane ✈️ to a remote campground 🏕️ →
Sleeping through a thunderstorm ⛈️ →
Getting stranded for 8 hours in an FBO… all because the weather had other plans.

Survival Gear: Bug spray, poncho, "guard animals," and bubbles (because why not? 🫧).

Watch the chaos unfold! 👇 (Sound ON for full effect!)

✈️😅 MY BRAIN DURING EVERY LANDING (Sun ’n Fun 2025 Edition):
“Please don’t bounce… please don’t bounce… oh hey, we’re down! Was that smooth? I’m gonna say it was smooth.”

Watch this experimental bird stick the landing at Sun ’n Fun 2025—because nothing beats that “greased it… maybe?” feeling. 😂

Took a Volkswagen-powered airplane to a remote airport with a campground…
Slept through a thunderstorm.
Took off in questionable weather (spoiler: the forecast was wrong).
Ended up stuck at a tiny airport for 8 hours—just to play it safe.

Sounds like a bad plan? We did it anyway. 😅

The "Essentials":
🛒 Stopped at Mal-Wart for:

Bug spray ✅

Fire starters ✅

A "vicious" guard animal (okay, it was a dinasour) ✅

Bubbles 🫧 (non-negotiable)

The Adventure:
✈️ Flew in, set up camp, made a fire… then woke up to this.
⚡ When finally said "GO," I left.
🔋 When it turned out wrong, I landed—with dead batteries & dignity.

Shoutout to for inspiring (or at least tolerating) adventures like this!

Now I’m just hoping the algorithm shows this to anyone who’s ever doubted a weather report. Tag a pilot who’s been there!
