How to land a Piper Warrior N416RP

Alex my Flight instructor is teaching me how to land at Crookston MN airport CKN

"I'm looking at my airspeed and I see it's a little slow so I'm going to add some power." Erm.... you're on the back side of the power curve. You PITCH for airspeed, you POWER for altitude. You increasing power did NOTHING for your airspeed if you didn't change the attitude.

Learnt to fly on a piper warrior, absolutely love it. So forgiving and easy to fly

Too low.... if you lost power you would not have made the runway...

I’m just a guidance system with 15000 hours total with 5000 hours of instruction given. I don’t know why instructors like this one make things like landing an airplane more complicated than it should be. Except for looking at the airspeed and the tachometer. All eyeballs should be looking outside at the runway numbers and the touchdown zone. Landing a Cherokee is no different than landing any other airplane. They’re all about the same.

Im a flight instructor now and I recall watching this video just about every night when learning how to land.

[@LJDRVR]

Nice patter, but there's no reason not to reduce power all the way to idle when abeam. Your pattern is twice as far away from the runways as need be. If you had lost your motor during a good portion of that, you'd not have made the runway. And instead of practicing a power off turning and descending approach every landing, he or she will get to attempt in for the first time when it counts for real. Lastly, your turbojet-sized traffic pattern needlessly clogs up the flow of things. Not a good use of your student's time or that of the other airplanes who are attempting to use that airport but can't efficiently because of your giant patterns.

To everyone saying the audio is bad... I can hear it just fine. If you cant hear it, likely you dont know what to expect to hear. This is a good refresher

[@lefthandedfenceguy4924]

I train in a Warrior. In fact, I'm meeting up with my instructor this evening to go again! Good stuff!

[@adamr8628]

It would be a good video if I could hear a single thing you're saying. Lol. Maybe need to find a way to isolate your microphone from the sound of the airplane

[@crackerjack3762]

I am so Flippin' excited to start training with this thing. Looks amazing. Thanks for the vid!

[@Docinaplane]

Flying is the second greatest thrill known!

[@RoscoeMcGillicuddy]

This is so helpful. Forgetting how to land is a thing, but videos like this help with that. Thank you!

I like to complete my turn onto final 500 feet above runway altitude ..

I don’t know how I stumbled on this video but I got a lot of fun memories in the plane. I’m a student at UND but I take up 416RP with friends for fun. Just this summer we took her to moose lake to pickup a puppy my friend bought and got my first $100 hamburger. Love this plane!

The same technique works perfectly for the Archer! Actually, even for the Skyhawks. 😊

[@mitchsallis7154]

I flew a piper Warrior in my training days many moons ago

[@stephanfiebich1561]

Still flying my 1969 140 and have always maintained 80 mph until crossing the fence .

[@vrendus522]

Took a lesson in a low wing Brave, once. Thanks for the take along.

[@owenjc9132]

The PA 28 is my favourite light aircraft.

Normal civilian patterns look like luxury compared to the tight military patterns they have us doing at KAFF. Awesome landing though!!
