Great content. My old CFI used to put his finger on the DG and say fly opposite heading (180) at standard rate👍

A priceless set of information, to be sure. Thank you, sir! Sharing this.

Thanks mate, im a student pilot and not sure whether to buy a tail wheel or a tricycle. Looking at a Jabiru 200 or a mini cab gy20 at the moment

great video

This video deserves way more views and likes, appreciate it sir

This is super helpful, thank you for sharing!

I like the cooler bag idea. Food and a place to cool my overheated ipad.

Go Izzy! Amazing! Congratulations and many successes in your ATP career. I'm following your steps with my Private Pilot lessons.

that last example is absolutely priceless 💡

tnx

On the runway, maintain ailerons proportionally, opposite the stalling wee rudder being applied. 60 yr CFI

thank you for these videos, I see you were holding a NY sectional chart, are you a CFI in NY? rn im in ground school.

Excellent video!

So awesome lots of great information thanks.

Thanks a lot for clearing my doubt

I’m a Laconia native living in Greenville, SC. I know the Moultonboro airport well, and especially the Laconia airport, I used to live in the condos on 11B across from Patrick’s. Good luck.

Excellent explanation! Much obliged.

Thank you for taking the time to go through this

The FAA should NOT be Regulation TOY Model Airplanes.

But it F's the TOY AIRPLANE R/C Pilot not flying on a(RESERVATION) FRIIA F(AA-Recognized Identification Area) i.e.an FAA approved Radio Controle flying Site. Limmited to Model Flying of 400' AGL, even thoughFAR 91.119 Minimum safe altitudes: Clearly states in Sub Part (b) over any open air assembly of persons, an altitude of 1,000 feet above the highest obstacle within a horizontal radius of 2,000 feet of the aircraft. Accordiing to the Scottsdale AZ FSDO an openair assembly of persons can be 33'000 People at a conxert or 2 People on a blanket having a picnic.

Former Bristol resident here, I never really saw any planes flying in or out of 2N2 in the many years I lived there. Recently I took a trip back up there to relive some memories and went and swung by 2196M who now has a few broken windows.

Great Shirt! 😊

Lots of regulatory requirements, but not a lot of safety benefit.

Great video. The stuff about the doors and the possibility of 135 requirement reminds me a lot of the NTSB recommendations that came out of the FlyNyon incident in NYC.

Good

Applicants should be able to take ther flight chks with the feds; afterall we already pay them with tax dollars!.back in my day most examiners were retired high time military airmen with at least 5000 flt hrs some military check airmen! Most of my flt chks were with these guys exacting and fair; and it didnt cost me a dime!

Thank you for an excellent refresher on inadvertent flight from VMC to IMC. I use the OG spoke method for sixpack scanning to see what instruments are doing what. When I was a fledgling Private Pilot I had a primal fear of accidentally flying into IMC conditions. It was that fear that motivated me to get an IFR endorsement. 😊

Great job explaining this often overlooked topic. Flight plans have much to offer on xc’s. It always amazes me at the number of VFR flights skirting the perimeter of the Houston Bravo without FF or talking to anyone. Makes for a very congested slice of airspace with compressed traffic that resembles a Nascar track. So easy to improve the safety odds and check in with ATC. Really enjoy your videos.

Great video!

Good video. Thanks!

I haven't filed a VFR flight plan in a VERY LONG time. I will use a flight following on anything longer than 50~60 miles. The only down side is.... sometimes the controllers get grumpy with VFR people. I think that is VERY wrong of them. Just a few days ago, I was going through busy airspace, and I needed to drop under a layer, so I let them know what I was doing. When I got to 5500'.... I told the controller "Level at 5500 Feet", and his response was literally.... "Good for you, contact XXX on XXX". He basically handed me off just because he didn't want to talk to me. I think part of the problem is, some controllers tell us to report any change in course or altitude, and some just say "Maintain VFR". I think there needs to be a standardization to flight following. This was a long flight (260mi) and I talked to at least 6 different centers/approach controllers.... and most were very friendly. Normally on a flight like this, I would have just filed IFR to make life easy.... but I didn't want to be in IMC in this particular plane.

Surprised you don’t add trim to make it easier to hold elevation.

i wish to thank you for sharing this flying video with me . Amen

Solar powered lights and electric airplanes….. oh goodie! Another stupid, expensive unnecessary money pit.

Thanks! I am a private pilot and am glad they are loosening the LSA market some because GA needs more affordable airplanes. Moving the max air speed up to 250 will negate the low cost of a stout enough airframe and they will certainly need the same ADS-B requirements to see and be seen pushing costs up further but necessary. Good report. I like to see a Federal Agency actually working for and with us to make this industry better. I was told by a FAA Inspector who visited our 135 Check Hauling operation out of Love Field after a short discussion about ramp checks. My concern since we were on a hot schedule similar to Fedex getting money into the Federal Reserve Banks on time, a ramp check could blow any earned revenue from a trip. He said they understood that, and wouldn't do that. Further they let us know when they planned a visit so some principals could be present if they wanted to look at manifests for example, or aircraft log books. No need to feel intimidated was the message and they displayed that attitude.

Thank you

great job

My 17 year old son slated to get his license tomorrow here in Ft.Wayne.,Was a pilot at 16 but you have to wait until your 17th birthday. So many weather and check pilot delays but months later, here we are!!! He’s going to fly commercial. Congrats on your flying!!!!!!!!

You need to make an episode about the BAD sides of the Act, such as how it will destroy the Part 91 tour industry and severely impact skydiving.

What kills a good amount of pilot for qualifying for basic med is the having a third class or higher before a certain time. Eliminate that date. I went to sea as a career change for 15 years. I sold my plane and gave up my hanger. Now that I am retired, I would like to get a basic med. The fear of being denied a third class med because of certain but approved prescription drugs has kept me from doing so. Once denied you are screwed. Also it is hard to find a Designated 5:45 Medical Examiner. Our two is 250k plus a student population of 72k. What is up with that?

Tysm,very informative video

Lots of good news in this vid. Thanks for the update!

The DPE problem is the biggest problem addressed! Most DPEs now are not even responding to repeated phone calls and/or texts. This pressures candidates not to discontinue for weather or illness for fear of adding another 4 months onto their checkride.

My guess is the insurance companies will have something to say about a pilot with Basic Med flying an airplane with 12,500 lbs gross weight. Generally they have begun declining to cover pilots over 70 flying multi-engine turbine aircraft single pilot.

When will the new Basic med expansion come into effect?

When do the basic med changes go into effect?

Well I know it killed the Banning CA airport allowing the city to close it to build warehouses with no consequences from the FAA. It was last min. change and it went through.

Restrictions on 100LL after 2030? 6 years and then we all need to pay >$40k for a new engine that uses and alternative fuel source.

So the FAA is changing the rules after they already killed GA. Probably too little, too late. The cost to enter GA is still so high, it's off limits to 99% of the population.

10 days for registration? It took me over a year! And that was only because I got AOPA involved to push it along. Seems like a lot of welcome changes.
