Short and simple, great little explainer! It’s difficult staying on path with just the throttle though. I’m sure it’ll be more intuitive in real life, but on the simulator it’s pretty challenging! Thanks Mike 😎🏆
@121Mike14 күн бұрын
Glad it helped! Yeah, when you can't feel things happening, it's a lot harder to fly. I always tell people that if you can fly a sim, you can fly a plane.

Thank you for all of your videos. I just started using the FlightGear simulator and these videos help clarify what the instruments are, how they work, and how they are used. In this video, I believe the black heading indicator should have a 30 where the 31 is. I guess this probably shows I am trying to pay attention ;-)

Good Eye! You are paying attention. That instrument was a factory mis-print so I got it at a great price.

Hey Mike. I am a little confused. I only fly in Microsoft Flight Sim, so it’s not a life or death scenario. I am currently flying at 5500ft, the outside air temperature is 5C. The inHg is 29.92. Does this mean I have to set the knob so that the press/alt is showing 5,5 under 5C? Thank you! This is a very nice series!

Yes, that’s exactly what you do. Glad it made sense. Flight sim is a fantastic training tool. Thanks for watching!

Thanks to @BestonChimbuziPhiri for pointing out my textual mistake on the speed formula. Everyone knows that speed is distance/time. I didn't check my graphics closely enough, sorry about that. I'll be more careful in the future. Thanks to all who're sticking with me anyway!

Hello Mike, Thank you so much for the wonderful and informative presentation. I have a question though, on the formulas towards the end you've written Speed = Time/Dist. Is it not Speed = Dist/time?

Oh my! What a glaring idiotic mistake. Thanks for catching that. It’s too late to fix it, but hopefully everyone watching knows that speed is distance/time.

Thanks for the vote of confidence Rance! So, that is still my main goal, and at this point in life, I'm just too many hours short of it to make the additional investment worthwhile, so I fill the desire to teach this way. For most, instructing is a stepping stone to the airlines, where they stand to make decent money after slogging around on low pay as a CFI. For me, teaching IS the end game, and I cannot justify investing in the additional training, and then neglecting my family for hours at a time on the evenings or weekends just to make very little pay. It's going to have to be a retirement project I'm afraid. I'd still like to teach Alex when he's eligible in the next 5 years without having to pay for a CFI, so maybe by then... Thanks for always sticking with me on 121.Mike!
