Welcome aboard, fellow Aviators! I’m Matt Farrell—The Flying Salesman.
If you love the aviation community, you’ve found your people. I travel the country flying for the Aero-Mach family of companies, where my company car is an airplane—and every flight is a chance to connect, learn, and share the stories that make aviation great.

New video drops this afternoon and this one’s a little different.
I had the chance to fly with Steve Gustafson from the @titanaerobaticteam. Steve flies the #3 T-6 Texan and the left wing position on the team.
It turned into a really good conversation about flying, mindset, and how airshow pilots think through what they do.

This next flight in the 210 is not about "where" or "how", it's about WHO! This flight will be just as informative as the videos you are used to seeing, just with a special guest. This was a really fun flight that I am exited to share with you. This Sunday, 4 PM!

Hello fellow Aviators! New video drops Sunday at 4 PM CST —and we’re back in the soup.
I’ve missed flying with you. A bunch of you have reached out asking when the next video’s coming—this one’s for you.
So let’s go red-line/red-line and dive right back into the IFR rhythm.
I had planned to fly the RNAV GPS—but ATC had other ideas. I adjusted, and we ended up shooting the ILS in actual IMC in the 210.
Can’t wait to share this one with you and don’t worry, I’ll catch you up in the left seat.

Thumbs up to the Dads- Despite the fun we have on our flights together I do have a family at home that I love very much. The thumbs up at the end of each video is a personal shout out to my son Luke. My oldest is Lily and she made me a father of a wonderful young lady. My son Luke made me the father of a future man. Both are HUGE responsibilities. A big thumbs up to all you dads our there trying to get it right. And a bigger thumbs up to all of the fathers that worked so hard to bring us up with honor, grace and dignity. God bless all the Dads on this Father's Day. -TFS

Exciting News, Fellow Aviators!
I’ve received some fantastic feedback from you all about what you’d like to see in future episodes—thank you! Your input means a lot, and I’m excited to share what’s next.
I just signed the lease on a new hangar, and now it’s time to make it my own! Along with keeping my plane safe, I’m turning this space into the ultimate aviation man cave.
Here’s where you come in: What are your best ideas for decorating an airplane hangar/man cave? I’m talking everything from functional aviation gear to cool memorabilia and tech setups.
Drop your suggestions in the comments! I’d love to see photos of your hangar setups too. Let’s get creative!
Stay tuned—I’ll be sharing the transformation with you in upcoming videos. #aviation #airplanehangar #aviatorslife #aviationcommunity #mancaveideas

Should Marvin start a YouTube channel featuring the restoration of his Cessna 195 businessliner, OR sell it and buy an already flying airplane and chronicle his travels with his swedish fiance'?
