Nice video. I actually delivered this particular Arrow (5347F) to a customer at CRG way back in 1999, I'm glad to see she is still flying. Thanks!

I am a student pilot, I only had 1.5 hrs for cross country night flight, plus a little extra time to clean up, when my flight school closed shop and sold off all planes but the Arrow. So I had always planned to get my complex endorsement, at some point. Well it looks like that point is now. I will be transitioning from a Warrior to the Arrow for my practical. I normally would be much more intimidated by this, but my instructor has done a great job on the training. Not cocky, just safely confident I can get it done with his help. Thank the Lord I haven't lost my CFI yet, fingers crossed. Just 3 - 5 hours to go. May need more for the complex endorsement. This video is a huge help, thank you!!!

I love how Arrow is the same as Warrior - engine performance instruments are hidden in a way that the meaningful part of the scale is completely obstructed from view.

Great job, as usual, you and Otto have a very professional demeanor in the cockpit. I think you'll find that the most critical aspect in moving up to more complex airplanes is not so much the gear, prop, etc. but the increased speed... which means you have to learn to anticipate what's going to happen a little quicker that before, and the faster the airplane the greater the need for planning ahead. Keep up the good work!

You make a really good point. The speed will mean more planning to stay ahead of the aircraft. Thanks for watching and giving me your input!

Awesome stuff. I've been watching some of the videos on your channel for a little while now as i'm now flying the arrow. I heard you on the mic one day at Deland while I was at KPCM since they share a freq. I fly though Polk State College at KLAL and our provider is sunrise. Pretty cool to have discovered your content and be in the air with you shortly after. Safe flying.

Nice production here. One suggestion: rather than give us the pre-commentary on the drive to the airport, why not use the exact same time at the end of the video and tell us about how you're feeling and what you thought about the lesson. As the viewer is watching, whether experienced or not, we are forming opinions. It would be nice to hear your opinion as well

Thanks for the video. I was looking at the Piper Arrow POH, and saw the explanation of the gear warning/autoextension system. I was curious about some of the aspects of it, so I went looking for Piper Arrow videos. This was great. The gear-transition light is visible both when you retract the gear on takeoff and when you extend it for the slow flight. The red warning light is visible when you're slowing down for the slow flight. I gather you locked out the auto-gear-extension before the slow flight sequence? Otherwise it would have just extended the gear as you slowed down, right?

hey lewis Gabe again I am working on Instrument raiting right now and working on getting the written down. I was wondering if you had any advice on studying for it and what you recommend to do to study for it?
@LewDixAviation
@LewDixAviation 8 жыл бұрын
Hey Gabe.. I really like the Gleim Written Exam Guide.. I'm currently going through the flight instructor ones. For every rating they have served me really well. I would suggest getting that and the ASA Oral Exam guide. As you go through the Gleim, go through the ASA on the side so you can learn fully what the Gleim doesn't tell you, because although there is a lot of information in the Gleim, it is a study guide, not a stand alone study book. You will notice that a lot of questions that come up on the test, are in the book, so you will be familiar when you get to the test!
@MrJimmer1805
@MrJimmer1805 8 жыл бұрын
Go with Lewis' advice but then enroll in an instrument "boot camp", approximately $400 for two days on the weekend, you'll be well prepared for written test. Take test 2-3 days after boot camp. During those 2 to 3 days, take the online test from your Boot Camp provider and when you score 3 consecutive tests with more than 85%, you will know you are ready for the real thing. I was struggling with homestudy until The CFII I clued me in to the above method and it made things so damn easy!

Try a PA-32 if you want to talk about heavy rudder pedals lol. You probably have by now though. Learning how to trim out in the pattern, especially final, in the PA-32 has definitely made me a better, smoother, more consistent pilot. Trim is of the upmost importance.
