How to Remember Airspace VFR Weather Minimums - For Student Pilots

[@acblaze3116]

This video does not have enough views or likes. You have no idea how much you saved me.

[@PartTimePilot]

I appreciate that. Glad to help!

Seriously, this is so good! I was definitely struggling with memorizing this. PS I laughed at the wind noise... thought typical dude 😂

[@daycantave]

Watching this night before my commercial checkride, legend

[@richardromero8049]

Hmm

[@Whatsupnewjersey]

You saved my life, I was so confused. Thanks a lot.

[@akharder658]

I have taken Gleim and ASA and neither of them explained it this well and so concisely. Coupled with the podcast it’s great. I wish I’d known about all of this sooner. Even the short few days listening to the podcast has prepped me better than my online ground school previously

[@PartTimePilot]

I appreciate the kind words and am happy to help you out!

[@DannyReed]

literally thought i'd never get this straight. incredibly helpful

[@PartTimePilot]

Appreciate it ! Glad to help

[@cieramoore8254]

I memorized this, and used it to help me pass my written exam. Thank you, it worked better for me than the other diagrams and memory aids out there.

[@PartTimePilot]

Of course thanks for the comment. Congrats on the pass!

[@cieramoore8254]

@@PartTimePilot Thanks! Prepping for check ride now

[@antonvayner3713]

Huge thanks for this. I have been trying to figure out a memory aid for these and this was just what I needed.

Thanks for watching!

Excellent job simplifying this! I’ve been wracking my brain trying to memorize these and now this makes it seem much more approachable- thanks for sharing!

This is great. I wish I had seen this last year before I took my knowledge test. But I’m glad I have it for my oral.

Omg I just love you ....thanks I have exam tomorrow....make more vids like this....Thanks Again❤

Just found the Podcast, Now looking at this I can tell it's going to be so much more helpful that PI and Sporty's - 'Real people' learning! Thx!

[@PartTimePilot]

I appreciate that! Glad you found the podcast and found it useful!

[@kojack635]

Wow, this is really helpful. Studying for my private pilot fixed wing add on right now!

[@PartTimePilot]

Awesome! Thanks for watching!

[@TheCountExtreme]

I usually roll my eyes at visual aids and mnemonics because they don't work well for me, but this one is actually really helpful. Thank you!

[@PartTimePilot]

This is what helped me on airspace! Glad it helped you!

[@alsecen5674]

This perfectly illustrates everything that is wrong with the FARs. Well done video and good advice to new pilots.

[@chaboy5312]

Next you should memorize the wind limitations for shooting a video

[@PartTimePilot]

Zing! hahaha good one

[@MrSam-db1vw]

excellent video and very helpful as usual the good thing here is I was about to find a way to memorize this pyramid in my mind and you came up with this video at the same time I hope I can see you inside my mind when I'm answering the questions in the FAA written test

[@PartTimePilot]

Thank you very much for watching!

[@haleysmith8196]

This is such a helpful video! I’ve been struggling with memorizing airspaces and weather minimums, but this just helped me so much. Thank you!!

[@PartTimePilot]

Thanks for watching and thanks for the comment! Glad to help

[@andrewgmaxwell]

Nice way to remember airspace! I had to dig in the pubs to figure out the 1/2 mile or in the pattern for class g at night…thanks for bringing that up!

[@PartTimePilot]

No problem. Thanks for watching!

[@Kristian.87]

Wow this method is gna work for me!! Thanks for sharing

[@PartTimePilot]

Glad its helping!

[@IndestructibleFaith]

You did a great job explaining this! I'll be using it in my written test next week. Thank you!!

[@PartTimePilot]

Appreciate it. Good luck!

[@nyguy1989]

Thank you! I've been seeing this graphic in notes and had no idea how to read it. I just told my cfi I've been having trouble remembering and you'd think he would explain this 🤔

[@4kVIDEOS722]

Dude you rock! Best explanation ever.

[@boruch_perlowitz]

Thanks brother 🙏

[@mraviator7935]

Amazing!!

[@jwdonal]

I never seen this particular diagram format in any texts (FAA, Jeppensen, or otherwise). Pretty handy. More people should adopt this format - quite useful. Did you come up with this diagram on your own?

[@PartTimePilot]

I wish I could take credit for it but saw it on a pilot forum. Not sure if it’s origin!

[@thebestken]

@@PartTimePilot this is a little changed version of Rod Machado (the God of Flying). I like it though.

[@leroy6980]

Thanks!

[@Matt-rt9ws]

kings says 3miles visibility and 1000ft ceiling in class B,C, and Class D. is this incorrect? just want to clarify? Thanks for the great info you put out

[@PartTimePilot]

No. For class B the minimum cloud clearance is clear of clouds. But we usually don’t use the word ceiling when we talk visibility and cloud clearance. We usually say ceiling when we are talking about whether or not the weather is VFR, IFR or MVFR. But even here VFR is a ceiling of 3000 ft AGL or greater. IFR would be less than 1000 ft AGL.

[@MyUganda256]

Thanks bro

[@jordanmathew853]

thank you very hepful

[@parapelegicBUD]

thanks

[@Rapturedance1234]

would this be valid for EASA ppl exams ? 😩

[@PartTimePilot]

Airspace rules yes. And the rest of Private Pilot material I believe is mostly the same. Like 90-95% the same. Our ground school can only endorse people for the FAA written exam tho

[@harshverma88]

Where are you located?

[@PartTimePilot]

We are all online!

[@Stupidboi1]

I don't recall a 1/2 sm from the airport being 1 COC. Where did you get that?

[@PartTimePilot]

FAR 91.155 paragraph b item 2

[@survivalhealthandhealingtv5651]

THE HALF STATUTE MILE IS ONLY FOR HELICOPTERS...BUT GOOD TO KNOW IF YOU LEARN TO FLY THEM...IT IS NOT FOR FLYING AN AIRPLANE. BUT AS CFI'S AND JUST AVIATION STUDENTS WE NEED TO KNOW WHAT HE TAUGHT US HERE...SO IF WE ARE TESTED ON THAT INFO THEN WE CAN GET IT RIGHT AND PASS THAT IMPORTANT RULE AND REGULATION ON TO THOSE WHO WILL BE FLYING HELICOPTERS...IT REALLY IS GOOD TO KNOW! THE TRUTH WILL SET YOU FREE AND WILL SAVE YOUR LIFE!

[@kevint1137]

What about special VFR In D?

[@PartTimePilot]

This video only covered normal VFR weather minimums. Special VFR is 1 SM visibility and clear of clouds. So normally in class D you would need at least a ceiling of 1001' AGL to be able to fly VFR but if you determine you can still fly safely out of the airport area even though the ceiling is reported as lower than 1000' AGL (sometimes reports lag the actual conditions) then you can request special VFR to stay clear of clouds as you leave the airport

glad to see this , even though this is a memory aid its actually is kinda challenge for me for some reason..., but why in the hell are you outside ?? the wind noise in the mic is really annoying and ditstracting

@@PartTimePilot oh don't get me wrong i love your vids! most are extremely helpful, but its just hard to hear and focus with that wind noise blowing in the mic, its like trying to talk or listen in the car and having the windows down on the highway
