In Turkey you pay for your type rating even at the flag carrier and it costs more than if you get a type rating yourself. They make you sign a loan agreement so that you pay them back in installments. It takes them up to a year to organise a base check. Nowadays they hire inexperienced but type rated candidates (oncl. zero hours). It costs less, you complete faster.

I agree on needing 1500 for121 or 135 over 30 passengers as a base requirement. My issue with the 1500 hour rule is all the smaller planes are turning to single pilot ops (which the captain requires 1200 hours for IFR or really higher because its single pilot ops). The co-pilot in these single pilot aircraft are not allowed by FAA regs to record time in the 2nd seat even though higher performance aircraft experience would be a big help over 172. Other then CFI there really is only a couple places where a 300-1200 pilot is useful. As we get more automation, as the regs require a single competent (more hour) captain, there is less and less space for an SIC to gain experience.

As a 25+ year airline pilot and former CFII, I truly believe that turning flight training into some video production in extremely counterproductive; most especially in weaker students. If you're serious about getting your rating, you can hold off on the vid posting until you truly know what you're doing. If I was instructing in the "KZbin age", there's no way I would permit it. None! Secondly, her instructors overly coddled her...badly. Lastly, unless she lucked out and had the best aviatin' day of her life, I can't see how the DE passed her. On my private ride all those centuries ago, my DE told me, "When you land, I want your nosewheel splitting the middle of the centerline markings. When I sign you off, you're legal to land on any old narrow strip that you choose and I want to know that you can do it!" PS Pilots with under 750-1,000 hours shouldn't even be touching an autopilot. Learn to stick and rudder, then play with the gadgets. Yeah, I'm old school...but I'm still alive and my ticket is totally unblemished.

In one of her videos she describes what amounts to an inflight emergency. According to training, a quick return to the field would be the best option. I think ATC even asked her if she wanted to return to the field. She declined. I think the emergency was confusion about the automation. It was frustrating to watch. I hope this can help other pilots fly safely. Bottom line - fly the plane. In any aircraft at any time - a pilot needs to be able to fly the plane. - #GimliGlider

@danielreuter2565 thanks! I hope you realize though that I don’t recommend intentionally failing check rides so that you can learn more 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I did mean, however, to always look for the lessons in good or bad times as a pilot. I could have not learned what I did if I passed the check ride with flying colors because I knew exactly what the DPE would ask me beforehand. But that success could have got me killed later if I didn’t learn when to cancel a flight if it’s not the best time to fly regardless of who I felt I’d be letting down, or if it was inconvenient to me or others. Yes fellow pilots… PASS, PAUSE, or RESCHEDULE your checkride! DON’T FAIL it if you can help it 💀🤣🤣🤣🤣

It's a huge deal if there's a possibility you might want to become a professional pilot at some point. You don't have much control over running into the wrong dpe on the wrong day who decides to fail you over something minor. Now you need to be extra bullet proof for every future flight test and hope you don't roll snake eyes on the dpe.

@@BrandonKendrick25 the other thing is that from the way you told the story, the examiner was giving you a chance to discontinue the test when he asked you if you want to continue. The rules state that they have to tell you that are unsatisfactory and end the test as soon as you reach that point. So assuming he wasn't grossly breaking a very clear rule, you could have discontinued even after you were on track to fail. The applicant can discontinue the test at any point PRIOR to being told that they've failed. This is a critical item that it seems like a lot of student pilots don't know.

Im getting close to an instrument check ride. But ive taken a different approach thats not common. I chose to not rush my training. I had no goals of checkride as fast as possible, instead, i chose to fly and train as much as i needed to fly safely and know how to fly my best and be safe. Id rarher have sufficient training than brag because i got my checkride at 40 hrs. I think that sets the stage for failure. So many GA pilots die every year for lots of stupid reasons, i have no intentions of being among that group.

Being late, "scheduling Mix-Ups," tentreating students the way I'm sure he was treated at one of the big churn and burn flight schools. Overall, not preparing students for the check ride or procedures in general. For other student Pilots out there fire your unprofessional instructors fast and move on to somebody who is worth the time and money you are going to put into this. It could literally save your life.

I’m assuming you went to a part 61, not a 141. Based on what I heard, you would have never passed your final stage check at a legitimate 141. Your flight school and your CFI bear the lions share of the blame here. Like you said, ultimately you’re the PIC. Great video, a lesson in the necessity of maintaining control of your flight training. When I was a police officer, I had a supervisor that taught me that sometimes you gotta put your azzhole hat on to get the job done. Being a type A personality is an excellent trait for a pilot. Good luck….

@BrandonKendrick257 күн бұрын
@Ifly1976 you are correct I did go to a part 61 but if I place the blame on anyone other than myself I would be stunting my growth as a pilot. There are a number of reasons that I failed this checkride that had zero to do with my flight school. I was exposed to everything the DPE asked me about, but because I wasn’t thinking as clearly as normal, I wasn’t able to recall everything I needed to in those moments. For example I knew to calculate my eta I could have used my E6B, but in that moment, I just didn’t think about that because I was too busy trying to maintain control of the aircraft in higher winds than I was used to. Being more rested could have helped me to have a more clear head but that wasn’t the case. Here are the reasons that I (not my instructor or flight school) failed the checkride. 1. I should have rescheduled the checkride myself after I saw leading up to the checkride that the weather was forecasted to be higher than I’d ever flown in before. That should have trumped what the DPE or future passenger’s opinions are. If you as the PIC are not comfortable flying in the present conditions, the flight needs to be cancelled period. 2. The day of, I didn’t pass the IMSAFE checklist due to all the factors I spoke about, and I should have terminated the checkride myself after I successfully completed the oral. I did not however because I didn’t know how much longer it would take for me to get rescheduled if I did not do it that day. I also did not want to have to pay more money to reschedule it which I assumed I would have to do. Either way, it was the wrong call to proceed ,and a paused checkride is better than a failed checkride in hindsight! 3. As much as I studied, I could have focused more on cross country specific material because I knew that the cross country would be an area that I was going to be tested on. I could have quizzed myself by pretending to pretending I was on the ground making those calculations and then switching it and pretending that I was at altitude and my electronics/foreflight died. Had I better prepared myself, I would have had a different result and part of that preparation is knowing when to walk away and try again another day
