@Electric_ Traveller “STUDENT PILOT TAKES OFF THEN HURLS THE PLANE TO THE GROUND AND AT THE LAST MOMENT PULLS BACK AND SAVES HIS INSTRUCTOR” .... That’ll get em...

[@andrewliebel]

This was the best video I have seen on your channel as a subscriber in regards to getting a feel how serious it is the fly IMC with no auto pilot! The mental toughness to rely on training and execute. This was full circle aviation on display. Nothing beats proficiency and a master of your craft.

[@austingunn734]

Excellent video on the importance of staying ahead of the plane. Once he realized he had missed 3 crucial things (landing checklist, call-out at FIBUS and capturing the glideslope) the jokes ended and things got serious. IMC is no joke. What a great learning experience. Love these!

[@LewDixAviation]

Thanks Austin!

[@Mr.Martini549]

Kept your boy busy up there. Young Bob has good situational awareness.

[@Mr.Martini549]

Very impressive how he got back on the glidescope. He was also a little fast on short final but got her back down to 65 knots quickly. That did not go unnoticed. 👍🏽

[@ChaseCostner]

These videos are super helpful, really enjoy them. IFR Checkride coming up next week!

[@LewDixAviation]

Cheers mate! Good luck!

[@midlifeflyer]

A few years ago I heard that Cape Air, which flies the 60/80 mile route between Boston and the Cape islands, loads and briefs the approach before takeoff. Talk about being ahead! I realize task saturation is a necessary component of primary instrument training - and GREAT job here! - but I've been teaching that in recurrent training as a short flight strategy. Always gets a "wow!" especially when we plan 3 approaches and load all of them before takeoff.

[@LukePylypciw]

“That’ll jiggle the balls”.... never heard that one before😂😂

[@Kevlux86]

Great to see these instrument videos! Getting close to the end of my instrument training and there’s lots here to think and rethink on, MUCH appreciated! - from KVUO

[@isaacpuffer]

I was hoping for a Warrior video. We just got a loaner while our Cherokee is getting an engine overhaul and it’s a Warrior with the tail number 32043. Must be the sister plane to the one you fly!

[@mannysamaniego702]

That same hoodie arrived in the mail yesterday. Now all I need is, dare I say, is a Cessna!

[@LewDixAviation]

If you wear it in a Cessna that will offset the positive effect the hoodie gives. You will ruin the magic!

[@freakfly23]

OVC004 here at BOW today. Great day for some actual. Too bad we don't have an ILS. I guess I'll just watch this video to pass the time.

[@LewDixAviation]

I’ll be over there at some point soon to keep you busy. Looking forward to that haha

[@IndiWoolley]

Love this channel

[@coppi60]

You did a great job letting your student know what he was doing right, and what he was doing wrong!! Those were really good teaching techniques you displayed today.. Keep it up, and I am looking forward to the next one. George

Hey Lewdix, late comment but just wanted to ask if the maroon/crimson hoodie would come back to the store anytime soon?

[@THATFlightSimDude]

Lew, thanks for another great video. Question for ya: How are you keeping all of those GoPros running throughout the entire flight? Are you constantly changing batteries in those things? I just picked up a refurbed Hero 7 Black and I can't much more than 30-45 minutes in the air before it wants to cut out on me, and that's if I'm lucky. And does keeping the LED's off help with battery life? Thanks man. Have a good one!

[@LewDixAviation]

I record 4K at 30FPS and get Max 1 hour and 20 mins. Most of the time it’s less.. I just focus on flying and get what I get. If they die mid flight so be it.

[@THATFlightSimDude]

@@LewDixAviation Thanks!

[@spelldaddy5386]

Great video Lewis. Is that the first time you've been in imc cross country since working at silver? Also, is the cherokee equipped for imc? I always see you doing these videos in the Cessna, but I haven't seen any in 042

[@LewDixAviation]

I believe it was actually. Obviously we did it a lot at Silver but it’s a different game in a light aircraft with no autopilot haha 042 is IFR equipped but has a few bugs in its VOR system at the moment that is hopefully gonna be fixed

[@paperclipmaniac]

What's going on with the copilot instrument panel? Tablet holder?

[@dunpastor7811]

Hi Sir Lewis! I will start my flight training more or less 3 years from now. What books can you recommend that will help me in my ground school and flying? Thank you!

[@AcogR6]

Nothing liking flying in actual imc. Hope you can get his reaction when he come out of a low ceiling with the runway less than 500 feet away. I love that feeling.
