I like to make things interesting on a checkout. Especially when the pilot flies for an airline and also is my good friend. Chris is back and getting checked out to fly a Cessna 172. He has plenty of hours in them so it was the perfect time to raise the standard of performance.
Enjoy the flight!

Friend, I want to know the price please help me

[@Micg51]

The callsign thing, so accurate. Gets me every time I don’t fly for work 😂

[@LewDixAviation]

Yep 😂

[@alk672]

I wonder what he would say next had he not caught himself... after the airline name.

[@Acc0rd79]

I think he passed his mock checkride. Go ahead and call the man and get him down for his PPL! This guy is going places.

[@LewDixAviation]

Going places.. Mostly on the red eye

[@Glyrez]

What a great friendly banter between two pros! 🛩👨‍✈️

[@farmgene]

Why would I want to see someone check out in a 172? Why would I want to see 2 friends chatting about aviation? Why would I subscribe to this channel? BECAUSE IT’S Awesome!!!! “Welcome to the up up and away!”

[@LewDixAviation]

YES!!

[@somedudeinchirons4936]

the only thing i could say is to watch your ailerons when doing stalls, correct with the rudder instead of the ailerons. that looked like a brilliant checkout, it looks like the airline pilots still have it!

[@John170B]

Jeez I was going to let you fly my plane. Not anymore…

[@SoCalFlights]

Love it when the Murph sneaks into your vids.😁

[@LewDixAviation]

He’s a legend!

[@JeffsonSolomon]

I’d like to see a turning power on stall on the next flight ✈️

[@ChristopherT1]

Great video! First time! You can tell you guys have Saab stank on ya. We’ve probably got time on the same airframes. XJ for life! Well done gentleman!

[@LewDixAviation]

We had a lot of XJ’s at our airline!

What a great flight review! He nailed it. Thanks for sharing! The only comment I could add would be to add a 5 to 10 seconds time reaction before performing the impossible turn. Freezing the reaction for a little time add some real difficulty because in case of a real engine failure the pilot, even with very good skills, will need some seconds prior to react. Keep uploading, I love your chanel 😘

[@mccd8334]

Bwahahhahaha. Great video. Loved the segue to the surf shark add!! “We will be floating around a lot today” bwaaahahahahhahaaaa

@@rockycotugno5655 Thank you! Welcome to the channel

[@JCCFlying]

Loving the channel, keep doing what you are doing ;-) ... Question, do you think at 55 there is still a career as a pilot to be had ? Retiring from hospitality after 38 years and looking for something new and just started my PPL 🙂

[@TejYT]

Working on my PPL too! I'm 19 tho haha

[@ascmclaren]

Didn't know you supported Bolton. We are probably the only guys in America who support a league 1 club! I support Ipswich Town.

you missed a golden opportunity there.... @5:30 you should have said, "i thought the class b started at 1200" HEHEHE

ok, next video the same procedures with airbus please 😂😂😂😂😂😂👍

As a student pilot, I’m going to watch this video like 20 times a day to stay current

[@NoahHeadglitch]

Kinda funny that 781bg uses to be a Cessna 172 that our flight school had back in the day. Just a coincidence

[@1abc219]

I am reading about the icing hazard to small planes in winter... what checks do you recommend about this Lew and others please?

[@StarvingFlightInstructor]

Minnesota pilot with plenty of ice experience. Avoid visible moisture when you don't have anti/de-ice capabilities. Visible moisture is basically clouds. When flying a carbed engine, cycle the carb heat every 15 minutes when you reset your directional gyro. Know that icing can occur at higher air temps than freezing, especially carb ice. Put a piece of black electrical tape on a forward facing part of the plane that you can see, it helps you see ice easier if your plane is white. When you look at PIREPS, consider who made the report. This goes beyond icing, such as turbulence. Light icing is not the same on a 757 as it is on your 172/Warrior/SR-20. It's ALWAYS going to be worse for you than it is for them. Practice good Aeronautical Decision Making (ADM) and make the go/no-go decision with the mindset of, "It's always better to be on the ground wishing you were in the air, than in the air wishing you were on the ground."

[@1abc219]

@@StarvingFlightInstructor thank you!! Much appreciated.

[@mxyzptlyk]

How about a bit of history? How did you both get visas to work for airlines in the US? No criticism, I know what it took to get our visas to work in the US so I'm interested.

[@christopherdavies7092]

Hey tony, I actually first came over on a E2 visa to work at a British owned flight school here in Florida. Then over the years circumstance’s changed and I ended up in what they call part 121 which is airline flying

No clearing turns before stalls!!!?? lol

LewDix 747 or a380?

[@LewDixAviation]

747. A380 was a mistake.

[@deeanna8448]

@@LewDixAviation unfortunately, I've never flown on a 747. I did get to chance to fly on an A380 and a 787 on a trip to Australia. I specifically scheduled a less convenient flight time and connection city so I could fly the 787 (my 2nd favorite aircraft behind the 747). As much as I love the beauty of the 787, I have to say the A380 was much more comfortable.

Is the amount of talking and joking during the last part of the taxi and rollout ok? I was under the impression that the time around takeoff is supposed to be more professional for safety reasons

[@LewDixAviation]

There’s nothing wrong with the way we operated. Don’t get sucked into the group that believe in never having a good time while flying. You can operate safely while still enjoying yourself. No rules were broken.
