Welcome to my channel!


My name is Joshua Ryan Blair and I started flying my sophomore year in high-school when I was 16. Shortly after my 17th birthday, I passed my private pilots check-ride and received my private pilots license (2002).

With the increase in tech over the past few years, including action cameras, drones, and the desire to get epic footage, there has never been a greater time to really drive home the importance of intentional safety in flight. I want to be an advocate for adventure and safety, together. By supporting a culture of safety in the general aviation community, I believe we can continue to get the most out of each flight while also minimizing the risks of fatalities.

Join me as I work to expand my sphere of influence by being an example of flying safe through my experiences and tips!

Just toured the most IMPRESSIVE aircraft factory I've ever seenโ€”and they kept it secret for 15 YEARS! Spirit Engineering in Grand Junction, CO is building Light Sport Aircraft entirely in-house (even the engines!) with 21 air frames on the line RIGHT NOW.

What impressed you most about modern aircraft manufacturing? ๐Ÿค”
