Welcome to the Captmoonbeam aviation channel. I’m Jim and I’m a professional pilot and a Flight instructor with over 15,000 hours of experience in private jets and turboprop aircraft. I fly airplanes and travel for a living. I Originally created this channel to share with friends and relatives but, since then, it’s evolved into a platform for sharing my life as a corporate pilot. My flying videos cover dozens of different airplanes like the Cessna Citation XL, Caravan and Sovereign.

Good to see you back in the Jet. Thank you for another great video sir!
Great to see you once again in the Caravan. Thank you sir for another great video!
Thank you sir for another great video!
We know it as Jeff City. 👍
I learned to fly at the now-closed Lake Winnebago Airport just southeast of Kansas City, MO, while stationed at Richards-Gebaur AFB in the early seventies. While planning my landing at the Versailles, MO, airport, I made the mistake of announcing my pending arrival to “VerSIGH” UNICOM. After the laughter died down on the radio, I was informed that the proper pronunciation was “VerSAILS.” Yes, lots of laughs and a lesson learned. 😂
Always professional and safe, passenger was in better hands then he/she could have known most likely. Seems like the way to go from point "A" to "B" these days. Thanks for the great ride!
Jim, I was reading in my Robb Report about Surfair, Inc. It will soon take delivery of 20 new Grand Caravans. After which 80 more for a total of 100 for conversion to electric power. I had no idea that this was close to happening! Have you had any experience with hybrid electric or fully electric planes?
I will say it again, best pilot videos on U Tube!
I know that weather is dangerous, but gosh the cloud formations and lightning sure are beautiful. Great video Capt.
👍
That was truly a good one sir, some professional piloting skills on display. Are you buy chance coming to Chicago for the NASCAR race?
good job, windy gusty there.
Those reflections ( UFOs ) can be distracting. When the Tower said calm winds, I might've asked for 8L but it worked out nicely. Fun flight !
Hey Jim, Just as well as you had a holiday! Geeze what an 'interesting' weather day mate. I though my day was intense being at Farmers Market in the morning and then producing our Pure Olive Paste all afternoon but i think you win hands down. Brown side down Blue side up mate :-)
Great video. Thanks for sharing
Very cool storm views!
Geat stuff, always look forward to your next video!
I thoroughly enjoy each and everyone of your trip video's!! Not only fun to watch but really informative.
Would a PC12 be a better ship for the job you’re doing ?
Like!
I began pilot training in 1983. That doesn’t mean a thing. A beautiful video like this, reminds me of why I was so inspired to enter aviation! Marvelous video and the presentation was fantastic! God bless you, Moon !
Dodging t-storms in a Caravan? I guess Cessna must have upgraded the breed; I flew night freight in the last “A”model built back in the day, and as I remember it, the airplane was certified with deicers on the TRAILING edges of the flying surfaces for use when we were trying to outrun a slow moving cold front.😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Great dodge and weave flight Capt. Beautiful angry skies.
That looked amazing...
Did I hear a ATC mention that Kansas City Center was at 281.45? Isn’t that a strange frequency?
As a young teen I loved assembling model aircraft kits by Monogram and Revell. I built both the F-84 and the F-86. I got to see both models fly at airshows over the years. I never did see a F-100 perform; but I did assemble one.
Good Surfing aviod CB Caps ! Nice landing little ran right centerline 😊
Great video Jim. To me those thunderstorms are fascinating and beautiful from your view of them! Cheers from CYYB.
Thanks-like we expect!
How I miss to flight that great plane.. love the G1000.
Hope you're having a great time. Hope you had a chance to see the new F-15 at the Spirit airshow.
Thank you for aharing another fine video..awesome flight.
Love the C208 videos! Nice work
Great video!
Beautiful view captain. Mother nature can be wicked at the same time be awesome looking. Thank you!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Love your videos. I think they really capture the reality of careers like yours. Personally, I would appreciate more detailed instrumentation. The shot you took of the weather radar was excellent!
I always enjoy your videos... usually with a coffee. 😉 Maybe you have already shared it in a previous video that i have missed. But i would really enjoy hearing your story and how you came to do what you do. Thanks. Ben
Great video Jim, we had a bit of everything.
Great views going through those storms!
Best UA-cam channel! Thanks jim!
Not often we see the "Capt" negotiating anvil-heads! 🌩
That UFO at 12 o’clock was relentless. 😂😂😂
Did you notice the tracer round at 10:04? Scary!!!
And more at 11:14. Someone has it out for Jim!
Wow, Jim. Nice job dodging the heavier thunderstorms. I'm glad you were able to visit Ankeny. Hopefully, next time the trip won't be so "interesting"! Enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work! 👍
Great stuff Captain! Your channel is one of my favorites! Just no nonsense professional flying.
Nice maneuvering through those storms. Awesome flight as always.
Wow! Great thumbnail Jim!!👍
Nice Flight. Good deviation to avoid TS. Greetings from good old Germany 🇩🇪
A very exciting flight with great scenery flying around the cumulonimbus clouds. Not surprised by the presence of mammatus clouds @7:56 after hearing the weather report of severe thunderstorms with possible tornadoes. Was this a super cell or a strong cold front/squall line producing those storms?
Thanks for the video, those thunderstorm clouds were huge, but glad you get passed by them safely. Greetings from Finland :)
Thanks. thee were two separate holes that I was shooting for. Had to turn away from both and go through further west.
