Amazing! I really appreciate your work! I hope to see your informative lecture soon!

[@learning2fly]

Terrific video, explanation, and graphics! Thank you!

[@cedricbeaudeparis9542]

Succinct and to the point. The visuals are spot-on. Love the recap too! Great job!

[@lazerbeedotcom2630]

I like how you tie the airspace shape and the class info to what we see on the charts. Very helpful. To all teachers, it is easier to remember if we know the “why”.

[@melintexas4506]

Outstanding Class C explanation with excellent visual aids!

[@RyOnDrums]

Honestly the best airspace videos on KZbin that I’ve seen

[@blessedexpress4476]

RyOnDrums Still confusing

[@RyOnDrums]

joshua guzman hahaha yea it is. I’m reviewing for my commercial checkride now and it gets easier the more you keep reviewing them and especially how they apply to situations that are discussed in certain operations. That’s what really cleared it up for me..repetition

[@darcynafe7821]

Very well done. Good visual aids and nicely put together.

[@stardust6773]

I'm very grateful for these videos (class C and D), I found them very useful. It'd be great if you could make videos about airspace E and G :)

[@jieliang8945]

The explanation is so clear. Thank you!

[@edgaryanez9453]

Congratulations!, you have the best video explaining Class C and D airspace; You explain very simple and complete all the issue. I haven’t understood the airspace in any other video. So I am waiting for the other airspaces like B, A, E and G, please!

[@ladycodedutchess]

I love it! Great visuals!

[@ronnetzel356]

Very well done, enjoyed it.

[@HiTechDiver]

Very comprehensive and well narrated video, with excellent special effects, especially on the sectionals. Seeing a few dislikes on a video like this only supports my supposition that there are KZbin trolls that just go through and thumbs down everything, because that's who they are.

[@PilotRight]

Thank you!

[@sayedabas4938]

Appreciate for the great job man.

[@harmandeepsingh6598]

The best video on Class C airspace.

[@buddha65281]

thank you.. this helps me understand Class C a little better, as a soon to be new student I find the airspace regs a bit confusing.

[@Pilot.Lindsay]

Will You Post More Videos on all the Other Air Space ‘s ? Very helpful for refreshing the memory.

[@RickRose]

Thank you for the professional-grade instruction AND production. If you could pick a "trendy" topic for a similarly well-produced video, you'd blow up on KZbin. Try "How to apply eye-liner," perhaps.

[@PilotRight]

Thanks for the feedback and kind words! I'm afraid my eye-liner skills are not up to par with my airspace and aviation knowledge, but I'll definitely keep it in mind!

[@paulmorrisette1581]

Excellent

[@BoneyardHauntedHouse]

I really enjoy your videos, Very good graphics and the information is presented clearly with good examples. I hope you will consider making one on class B Airspace as well. Well Done!!

[@PilotRight]

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it, and I appreciate the feedback. I am working on one for Class B airspace, I've just gotten extremely busy but hope to have it up in the near future. Feel free to send any other suggestions for topics. I hope to have many more soon!

[@thilopriess1915]

Thx so much for that great video ...

[@DPJeffFeller]

really well done! Can you do other airspace?

[@searchingforjesus5422]

Excellent!!

[@randyrankin3604]

so far that was the best

[@aviationapprentice]

Great video! very informative

[@PilotRight]

Thank you! More to come in the near future!

[@ChevyGuy-kx7im]

Excellent Video very easy to understand Thank you

[@gravecrawler1629]

Fuck yeah, that was an awesome video. Super informative. Subscribed and liked.

[@ChiDraconis]

If you can note for studies: I see a black circle 30 NM which does not exactly set on the same TCA shown on VFR Charts?

[@orlandoorlandosan4628]

Good job.

[@DanFrederiksen]

FAA has the charts for download as geotiff (xnview can convert) but is there a vector/GIS version of the maps or digital era styled maps? because they are a mess to look at and can be much cleaner.

[@stevt77]

In the second chart concerning Louisville, does the fact there is magenta shading make it controlled spaced at 700 AGL even though the outer shell doesn’t start until 1200 AGL?

[@PilotRight]

Thanks for the comment / question! If I understand your question correctly, the magenta shading indicates class E airspace extending down to 700' AGL. Below that is then class G airspace to the surface. In the video, the sectional chart I used does show the class E to 700' AGL (the magenta shading) at the same radius as the class C. So starting from the ground under the 10nm shelf you would be 1. In class G at the surface up to 700' AGL. 2. At 700' AGL it would turn into class E and extend up to the bottom of the class C shelf. 3. At 1700' MSL to the south or 2200' MSL to the north you would then be in the bottom of class C. Also I want to make note the sectional I used to make the video is fairly outdated. The newest section and airspace information is slightly different around KSDF. I hope this makes sense! Please feel free to post any additional questions. You can also email me at [e-mail] and I'll be happy and clarify anything else.

[@edgarxavier493]

Wow best explanation

[@DiMAJ0R]

Please explain what is SQUAWKING 1200 supposed to mean?

[@avestuart]

It means that aircraft is VFR

[@tcalcut]

13:54 I like the eyeballs...!!!

[@pilot6464pilot]

Is a radius counted from tower or NAVAID ?

[@PilotRight]

Thanks for the question and comment! Usually the radius for the airspace around and airport is measured / starts from the center of the airport itself. Occasionally a NAVAID / VOR will also be located there, but the airport itself will be where the airspace starts from. Check your VFR sectional for the actual dimensions and layout. Hope this helps. Thanks!

[@pilot6464pilot]

@@PilotRight thank you so much

[@chrishickok717]

What’s up with the identifier “November 1234”??? NO ONE states the N at the beginning of the tail number. Good video on dimensions and graphics, but not so much for the communications.

[@knockg7266]

The "N" is dropped if the aircraft manufacturer's name or model is used: HAWK N666CB would be called out as HAWK SIX SIX SIX CHARLIE BROVO and after ATC contact it would be shortened to SIX CHARLIE BROVO (or so I believe as I study for Part 107 test!).
