One thing I was taught was do the circle of uncertainty.... draw a circle of 5 NM a around your last known fix....then identify major landmarks within that circle and look for them visually. Find a prominent landmark like the peak of a mountain or a lake or ideally town.... then using your heading indicator estimate its direction from your aircraft then take the reciprocal track and draw that track from location and that should intercept your course if you were on a VFR flight plan.... ideally if you are on a VFR flight plan you should be following VFR air routes... or tracking outbound or inbound from VORs.... and always fly higher than you think is necessary... altitude is always your friend.....

New subscriber. Excellent video! 👍🏾

Dope!

Lov this cut to the chase vids

TNX VERY USEFULL

Great job Garry . I would just caution, inexperienced pilots from attempting this maneuver >>> Because of the stall / spin >>> Potential danger.

where does the 750 get it's info ? is there a subscription charge ?

❤❤❤❤❤❤

The best video on trim

Great video - clear and to the point.

Thank you for making this, it is really helpful

The for the tutorial I just bought a Cessna 172 and wanted to try it out wish good luck to me guys

This is how Patsy Cline died 😢

Full stall landings are the best. Logical way to land

wow! amazing video! tks!

You need an airplane with some power as the density altitude is high.

Much more difficult having to triangulate under the hood and hold to ACS standards.

After watching all of these videos, I am sure of one thing. I will never EVER be a pilot! Kudos to all of you who have the skills and confidence to do this. Happy and safe flying to all of you !!

Great job explaining sir!

Ya still around Gary ?

"vertically challenged" 😂😂😂

Emergency Descent - So if you want to get the airplane down lower in the safest, QUICKEST manner.... STEEP SPIRAL Maneuver - If you want to quickly get the airplane down over a specific point on the ground, while maintaining precision headings and airspeeds. In other words, if your engine is engulfed in flames, then use an Emergency Descent to just get that damn airplane down to the ground ASAP. before it disintegrates in midair. On the other hand, if you have an engine failure (no fire), and are over your landing area (runway, field, etc), use the Steep Spiral to get the airplane down to the point where you can transition to a power off 180 landing. Another reason you want to use an emergency descent is to get the airplane down to a safe altitude due to a rapid decompression. Remember in an Emergency Descent, your top priority is to get that airplane down to a lower altitude ASAP. Time is the priority. You are not concerned about nailing a specific airspeed (just keep below Vne, or Vfe) or a specific heading. Both maneuvers should be completed with "eyes outside" 95% of the time. This is not an Instrument Maneuver. Glance inside momentarily from time to time in order to validate your performance instruments (Artificial Horizon, airspeed, VSI, Altimeter, Turn and Bank Coordinator,), but remember to keep outside "sight pictures" your main reference of flying this maneuver. Comments?

ACS lists STEEP SPIRAL and EMERGENCY DESCENT. They are listed as different maneuvers. Questions to ask yourself. What situation would warrant using a STEEP SPIRAL vs EMERGENCY DESECENT. What are the main differences on how you perform each maneuver?

Thanks so much!

That landing was crazy smoof 🤣

If the runway way has the PAPI and the 1000 foot markers, should that always be your aiming point?

Excellent presentation

Thank you so much!

Yokes are so bogus. Seems like you have to work so hard vs sticks.

KZbinr Bill4LE was just in there...loved the departure over the lake😅

what model Piper do you have?

"Uh...about to buzz the high school full stop big bear" lol KIdding

Primary Instrument = What you are trying to "maintain".

Whos here in 2024? 👇🏻

Sensacional.

May I know how to align the centerline during taxiing (and potentially on final) on the left side seat? any visual reference or imaginary line to follow? Some people say right foot, but some say between the legs? Much appreciated!

Wow, that looked awesome!

Great introduction to the topic! Thank you!

Hi thanks for the video

Best with directions

Very interesting!

Thank you so much for the video even was being old like this and I’m newer here but finally a real flying experience through Spaces live not just talking talking and memorizing. Thanks a lot.

Thanks for the video

Theres a reason many flight schools big and small are going to low wing planes, they're much more stable on appr and landing in x winds. More of a handful to fly yes, but better in that last 30 ft to touchdown. And as many good high time pilots have told me, single engine planes "dont flare".

Landings are what made me quit. I was great at everything else. I could only fly with wind under 6 kts and no x-winds. Was to afraid, side load, etc. Never could figure out rudder use for x-winds and turns. My CFI's saud I was very good. They even had the DPE who was a Gold Seal CFII, fly with me about 2 wks before check ride and I didnt know he was going to do the check ride, I thought he was a regular high time (13k hrs), CFI , but even he was impressed with the flying skills and said landings were ok. Then I went on one more solo and got x-wind and which rudder to use and plane touched down and pointed 35° to side of runway, I got it straightened out, taxied in and that was all it took for me to throw in the towel, 5 days from check ride.Right when I need confidence, I fail. No CFI wanted to help work with me to over come this fear. Here I am 6 yrs later wishing I had another chance but its far to $$$$ 😢. Id pay to have CFI like this.

In my ATPL book, dutch rool is an oscillation, not a maneuver, who's right?

Victimville KVMV 😂

Interesting

Just watched a video where ATC scolded a jet pilot because pilot asked for a short approach and didn’t turn base before reaching the threshold on downwind. ATC said that’s what a short approach is.
