I helped start BRCMA in 1999. Been volunteer, staff and participate through it all over those years. Just returned after 3 weeks. It’s come a long way since a hole in the fence and half a dozen GA pilots. We had a lot of fun in those early years! Still rewarding in many ways. Loved seeing the 24 out there. But man, that place destroys everything…vehicles, gear, ego, relationships, career, etc

Wow, I've never seen a runway exit taken at such a high speed. That runway only became visible when the plane was seconds away from the threshold. The PC-24 is indeed the Jeep of the skies, capable of flying in and out of dirt runways with confidence. Fantastic footage sir, as always. Looking forward to more.

Thanks for the ride! That PC-24 is a real beauty. Never thought I would see a situation where it was viable to fly such a pretty bird...onto a dry lakebed! Then again, I thought it nuts to drive a Prevost coach into such conditions. Hey, this is part of the silliness that is only possible in America! Love it, man! Hell, not only possible, but you guys were working a turnaround for more customers. Absolutely fantastic.

I am also participate as a "Ranger" at regional Burning Man events in the Midwest. I never thought of jet landing there or have seen any footage of aircraft landing there from the pilots perspective.

Who would have thought a bunch of rich hippy wannabes would be hypocrites. It disgust me how wealthy people claim to be environmentally conscious. Your wealth says imperialism, domination, and compliance in systems of mass suffering and subjugation. No matter how much acid they trip on they will never be loving and caring humans. I hate how most won't admit they're spoiled brats, never worked for anything, and sell to others that they got what they have due to merit and intelligence.

I saw a Cessna 172 flip over trying to land there. The playa was too fluffy where he was trying to land and it dug in and flipped. Pilot was OK, but the rental plane had some scuff marks. There was no fancy tower or cut runway though. Wonder if Bruno's Country Club is still there.
