[@henrygambill8188]

the way you get straight to the point, but also with alot of good information is perfect.

[@brentbusby74]

Right? When, oh WHEN are youtubers all going to learn that no one cares about your cheesy intro music and gfx you paid for. Get to the point! Well done here.

I'm doing my cross country instruction tomorrow with a stop at Dayton. 🙂

Very clear and helpful

[@wyatt92563]

Great video. Luv the graphics……because I was born and raised in Dayton. My home airport is just southwest of Dayton international, Dahio 😃.

Dahio is such a cool airport! I always kill students engines over dahio and make them glide it in.

@@chapmanflying7632 My aviation background: I was born and raised in the birthplace of aviation; W.P.A.F.B., Dayton, Ohio. My dad was a Naval Aviator. As a teen in the late 70's I would walk to a little country airport (I44) and sit at the end of the runway and watch the airplanes takeoff and land. I'd chat with the pilots and eventually the FBO offered me a job as a line-boy. I'd fuel and clean airplanes. While there I took some flying lessons and completed ground school. So at 15 years old I was flying airplanes before I was driving cars :-) But life happened and I ran out of money and time. In High School I started a vocational A&P class, but I struggled with the math and couldn't complete the class. However, I never lost my love of aviation. I spent many a weekend at the National Museum of the USAF at W.P.A.F.B. Every year I'd attend the Dayton International Airshow. Fast-Forward Four and a half decades: Towards the end of 2021 I was forced to sell my beloved '79 MGB British Roadster. I am determined to get my Private Pilot Certificate using the funds from the sale. I'll be 60 years old December 21, 2022. It's my goal to earn my Private Pilot Certification by then. At the beginning of 2022 I started studying/researching everything I could online in regards to getting my Private Pilot Certificate. 12Mar2022 I enrolled in Gold Seal Online Ground School. 01Apr2022 I passed my physical and was issued a 3rd Class Medical Certificate. 10Apr2022 I joined Pacific Coast Flyers flying club. 19Apr2022 I was issued an FAA Temporary Airmen Certificate. 19May2022 I completed the Gold Seal Online Ground School Course. 06Jun2022 I received my FAA Student Airmen Certificate [card]. 10Jun2022 I passed the FAA Private Pilot Written Exam. Score: 97! 23Jul2022 First Solo Thx for reading :-)

@@chapmanflying7632 my checkride is this coming Thursday. When I get my ppl it’s my goal to finally, after all these years, come back to Dayton and land at Dahio. I’ll be looking for a CFI to fly with me there first though.

@@chapmanflying7632 oh, I’m in California now. I’ve been training at F70 north of San Diego

[@chapmanflying7632]

@@wyatt92563 That's an awesome story! When you get your license, come visit me at Moraine (i73) and we can go land there. KZbin comment notifications hardly ever work so email me at [e-mail] if you want to make it happen. Dahio is abandoned now, in case you weren't aware. Some paramotor guys use it as home base, and I heard a powered plane may be hiding in there somewhere, but that's it.

I don’t know who you are but this video is fire 🔥

[@1971pyramid]

On minute 1:11 you mention not to go into D unless cleared, but FFO Class D ends at 3400, while you’re cruising at 3500. If you’re above FFO Class D, why would you have to deviate?

[@chapmanflying7632]

Good eye. You're right, wasn't thinking about the voiceover when I was making the diagram.

[@1971pyramid]

@@chapmanflying7632 It’s cool. Was just trying to clarify cause I haven’t flown VFR in years and now I’m reviewing all these concepts. Cheers !
