FAA Private Pilot Checkride ASEL

[@creativebuilding3]

This the CFI that we all need 😂 he is nice, patient, and friendly!

[@paulgrenga125]

6 years old and still relevant. Thank you for the video. I am curious about the lack of clearing turns.

[@TALK-0THECONURE]

When I did my private my dpe wanted one clearing turn at the beginning and that was it. Just depends

[@daviddd44-63]

Well the acs says you have to clear the area.

[@TALK-0THECONURE]

@@daviddd44-63 it's actually up to discretion as long as it is done at the beginning of the maneuver process

[@blainepetsupplies5354]

My dpe wants it done at the beginning of every maneuver

[@KimWentworth-y8e]

This is such a nice DPE.

[@Windtee]

Cool ride. Examiner was professional during the entire evaluation, calm and not in any rush.

[@spdmusicproductions3435]

Great Video Martin thanks for sharing. I can only pray that I have an examiner as cordial and polite as Steve. I hope you passed! Stephen

[@minkidanielhong2750]

I passed the check ride today! This video helped me a lot. Thanks for uploading!

[@nabilelyousofy9318]

Was it pretty much the same procedure as this video ?

[@minkidanielhong2750]

@@nabilelyousofy9318 It went very similar to this video! You don't have to worry:) you will do great. The DPE wants to see you pass.

[@EpicAviation175]

Congrats!!!

[@longshot8000]

That was awesome! What a bummer the battery pooped-out. I was hoping to heat the examiner tell you, “and that’s a pass!”

[@KimWentworth-y8e]

Yea right.

[@marcussobral7835]

super nice examiner! Great vid man! Congrats!

[@PRH123]

Good passenger briefing. I've never received one of those as a passenger on a light aircraft. It's a great practice.

[@Ruth53197]

Excellent video, I feel less nervous to take my checkride, thanks for posting👍🏻

[@Jtmar111]

Thanks!! That's a big reason why i shared this is because I got really nervous and worked up for no reason! You can do it!

[@zahidahsan1575]

Awesome video. Thanks for sharing. No diversions on the nav part. Interesting.

[@williamdunn8286]

I hope my Checkride DPE is like this, super nice and helpful in calming nerves. My CFI has me doing much more checklist discipline, and calling out each step in procedure, and I am still working on dialing in my procedures and checklists for each Maneuver and banking into my memory and double-checking the key checklist items like descent, landing, shutdown, start etc. Good video, thanks.

[@KimWentworth-y8e]

The DPE sounds nice. That helps.

[@aviationfann]

Great video. Just a suggestion but it would be great if in the description you input the times that particular maneuvers were about to be executed so people can forward to those parts of your video. Thanks for sharing!

[@Jtmar111]

Thanks. I posted a link at the top of the video description that takes you to a video that just have the maneuvers. I figured I'd cut it into two videos so that people could watch either one the prefer. Thanks for the advice tho. I still try to mark them and put them in the text. Happy Flying!

[@robjanson7282]

Fantastic job...Congratulations...I took and passed my PP Checkride at the end of August.

[@patrickwangui5025]

Awesome video. Thanks for sharing!

[@theginjaninja9768]

Why is he walking you through the maneuevers? Is this a checkride or checkride prep?

[@KimWentworth-y8e]

That would be great to have the timer start automatically .

[@DannyCreech]

Nice job. After six years you are probably flying for the airlines now.

[@aeromechmike]

What a great video, this makes me feel much better about my upcoming check ride. I fly out of Clark County but live in the Louisville area. This DPE seemed very calming and just along for the ride. Is he still doing Check rides and what's his name? TIA

[@Jtmar111]

He’s no longer doing check rides. He’s been battling health issues the past few years. Good luck on ur check ride!!

[@aeromechmike]

That sucks to hear, thanks.

[@aviation_nut]

@@Jtmar111 This guy sounds so much like John King from King Schools, but surely it's not him, right?

[@MrSam-db1vw]

I hope everyone has a chick ride soon in Private Pilot watch this video and memorize every single word especially at the beginning of the video because this is mandatory to tell your DPE or Examiner these words, once you start your checkride❤

[@joeleeman9886]

Awesome video and thanks for sharing this with us, totally sucks the cam died, I was hoping to see the entire process especially the engine failure and even though you clearly passed I kinda wanted to hear it. Good job though

[@ericchang3820]

I have my checkride on the 30th of June this month. I really do hope it's as chill as this. I'm super nervous at the moment!!!

[@RyanW35]

How did it go?

[@aries5576]

lmk if u passed and have any tips or advice

[@Wayman_Simmang]

good job!

[@garageauto5275]

I am taking my check ride in 6 days… are DPEs really this chatty? I love talking I just figured its a stone cold silent ride. Am I wrong?

[@Jtmar111]

They're all different. Some will talk to you to try to distract you and make sure you're able to deal with distractions in the cockpit. Good luck!!

[@garageauto5275]

@ thank you!

[@tobyrice99]

Who was your Examiner?

[@javaguy418]

Great video. Thanks so much for posting this. I'm expecting to take my checkride soon.

[@KimWentworth-y8e]

I would of cleaned up the airplane after doing the soft field landing. And then I would stop at the hold short line, look at final to see that it's clear and then make my radio call. Then cross the line for my soft field tack-off.

[@Jtmar111]

I’m so confused…

[@blainepetsupplies5354]

Make a video doing that then

[@Steven_ologist]

A co worker who was also a pilot told me he once took a bucket of KFC on a cross country. The folks at the fbo where he rented called him later that day to come back in to “ clean up the plane” he got everything greasy lol 😂

[@creativebuilding3]

Did you pass?

[@austinformedude]

[@alchemy6700]

Where were the clearing turns?

[@Jtmar111]

Good question ;)

[@MikeHalk100]

@@Jtmar111 I'll never understand _clearing turns:_ make turns to confirm you're clear to make turns.

[@daviddd44-63]

@@MikeHalk100 they dedicate time to actually look outside for traffic, when you bank it also helps others see you, therefore they can avoid you. And if that’s not enough it’s in the ACS.

[@bradydechant8281]

@@daviddd44-63some DPE’s will want you to do a clearing turn or two but they don’t force you to do them for every maneuver

[@Fly_The_Sky]

@@MikeHalk100 Because the clearing turns should be done the LEFT first, because if a aircraft was overtaking you, it would be on your RIGHT. But most people for some reason do clearing turns starting to the RIGHT. You can't see behind you, so imagine you had a fast NORAD aircraft coming up from behind you. Always to the LEFT first. I personally do a LEFT first turn 90 degrees, then do a RIGHT turn 180 degrees.

[@SamJoiner-o4q]

I like this CFI. Ive had nothing but young arrogant kids who are only there for time building and do not mind marking the smallest error as unsatisfactory which causes you to do a whole lesson again. aka dish out 3-5 Benjamins.

[@johnsteichen5239]

I’m still flying for over 50 yrs now. I don’t think I could pass the checkride😂.

[@darthheretic129]

DPE Santa Claus. Difficult to watch. The DPE was PIC the whole time.
