Great American Solar Eclipse from 17,500 ft - at 300 mph in a Cirrus SR22T

Immerse yourself in The Great American Solar Eclipse as we fly with it at 300 mph (ground speed) in a small aircraft with our two dogs. Our friends Joel and Caran are flying with us in their Cirrus. Starting in Carbondale Illinois we fly northeast at 17,500 ft in the eye of totality viewing the earth change below. See a perspective that can only be seen several miles up in the air.

We unexpectedly lost our first rescue dog and the love of our life, Pip at 14 years old to liver failure in mid 2024. You will see her in our first several videos. Our love of dogs and ability to transport them allowed us to form “Pip’s Rescue Wings” an animal rescue charity. Together with rescues across the country, we transport man’s best friend out of kill shelters and other life threatening situations to a safe haven. 100% of the proceeds from "Pip’s Rescue Wings" goes towards the Rescues we are helping. All flight and operational costs are covered by us personally. Please consider adoption before purchasing a puppy and please spay/neuter your pet.

We fly for business and fun. We use our airplane to visit our favorite places in and out of the country with our two dogs Baxter and Dolly. We love aviation, our passion is to learn as much as possible and share the experience with others. I am an Instrument Rated Private Pilot with High Performance Endorsement.

I am not a CFI, A&P or IA and our videos are for entertainment only. Do not use any of our video content as instruction on how to fly an airplane. Professional training must be taken at a licensed flight school.
