Important Skills For Landing - Slow Flight & Stalls| PA28

[@Dan007UT]

3:40 "what does that do to your airspeed" *points up* "drops it.. exactly" hehehehe

[@nicodaemos]

You explanation on why to use rudder and not aileron to recover a dropped wing was really good!

[@CaptainSuarez]

That’s why I love pipers, stalls are so easy and smooth. In fact you don’t even have to worry about a spin practicing stalls. Excellent video man.

[@LewDixAviation]

Thanks man! Yea stalls so easily. Very nice plane

[@kgraebes88]

my power on stalls in the warrior never seem to want to fully go, were practically a helicopter, gotta give it some help to practice the recovery lol

[@LewDixAviation]

kevin haha in my next stall video with JD I point out that in power on stalls I’ve found these planes don’t want to stall. There isn’t a significant pitch down haha

[@John-jg4vi]

I like your teaching style. I'm currently working toward my own CFI cert so watching the way you and others teach has helped me a ton!

[@speedbird737]

it helps the student - stiff / serious CFIs don't help the student relax and make more mistakes

[@TheShooter95]

I finally understand how to do these maneuvers, thank you.

[@SampleJoshua]

I love your teaching style bro. Whenever I feel myself getting tense while instructing, I think back to your videos and how light and fun you keep things. It immediately brings me into a joyful mood with a lighter frame of mind. We have one of the best jobs out there and you do a great job of reminding us of that! Keep up the great content.

[@LewDixAviation]

That's great man, thank you for that! I'm really happy with how much people take away from my videos (even though they are for entertainment purposes ;) ) Thanks again man

[@travissnowdc]

Kicked back, half asleep, watching my favorite general av videos... dude is doing a good job on routine slow flight recovery, when all of a sudden I'm startled and damn near throw my phone due to a violent camera shake and "RELEASE THE KRAKEN!!!" shout! Way to keep a fella on his toes. Wide awake now!😳

[@LewDixAviation]

The Kraken never sleeps!

[@saleem8634]

You’re the best instructor man!

[@lenoxmmb8062]

Great vid Lew! It was great to hear “ Welcome to the sky” on my key west flight..

[@LewDixAviation]

Haha thanks mate!

[@reician5341]

man i love this instructor

[@spyros_a_s]

Great session indeed! Kudos to both of you. !

[@Acc0rd79]

Look at them brown shorts, does he also work for UPS? I've never seen him at the Orlando building.

[@JodelFlyer]

Another very good video Lewis. Great stuff as always! (Really hot here in the UK today and 35 degrees tomorrow!) Tim

[@aimenbarigoudz]

Yep we got thunderstorms next week while having 27 degrees! Talk about opposites attracting! Greetings from Birmingham, West Midlands!

[@JodelFlyer]

@@aimenbarigoudz Birmingham, West Midlands?

[@TheDetroitSlayer]

The PA28-181 I fly used to have the same comms issue you have.

[@speedbird737]

Dang - you're the best -why weren't you my instructor back here in the UK!? :-(

[@LewDixAviation]

Haha thanks mate!

[@onthemoney7237]

I never heard any one make that point before nose down use the rudder to level the wings in a straight stall just like a stall spin recovery that might be a life saver . My instructor said nose down for speed than get it flying again ok maybe if you have lots of time and altitude ? Thank you 👍

[@Josherrr69]

Can you tell me how to land with out gear I was landing and they broke off because of the hard landing so I’m stuck in the air can you show us how to land with no gear

[@chrissams7517]

What airport do you teach out of here in Fla? I live by leesburg airport, wanting to take lesson in the next 4-6 months, enjoy your channel! TY

[@omarabdelkarim674]

3:40 😂😂😂 lewdix just did not want to believe he said the airplane speeds up when you bring the power back and hold the nose up LOL

[@LewDixAviation]

Needle moves up means airspeed drops 😉 mind blown

[@sidarragac]

Nice video!

[@benderaviation]

The instinct to use ailerons to correct an incipient spin is very strong. IMO every instructor should either demo this or let a student put the plane into one, to show recovery procedure. Perhaps the FAA should also require this training for PPL. Looks like your boy is doing well. Good prep and good instruction makes a big difference.

[@LewDixAviation]

It absolutely should be something an instructor demo’s. It’s part of the regulations “spin awareness”. He’s doing a great job and progressing on schedule! Thanks brother!

[@jimmyjamesjames2347]

Maybe you should reference the POH on piper spins before you tell someone to do it...

[@LewDixAviation]

You can let a wing drop and catch it without spinning. Nobody is talking about spinning a Cherokee

[@benderaviation]

@@LewDixAviation Exactly. On a side note, I was amazed at how much cleaner the PA-32 - my first low wing - stalled vs the 172s I trained in.

[@LewDixAviation]

Yea man I find the Pipers stall so much better. Cessnas have alway seemed unstable in a stall to me

[@Jdrew27]

Power to 2000 rpm *laughs in high density altitude* good flight and video

[@RandoCommando]

I want to take flight lessons with you in hopes that you RELEASE THE KRACKEN for me!!!

[@LewDixAviation]

There is a Kraken inside us all. It is up to each of us to release it. haha

[@brandonsorenson9178]

My question is why do you go to idle for the stall? My students don’t pull power until the runway is made close to the numbers rounding out. So an approach to landing stall in my case is power 1500 flaps full 65 MPH 500 fpm descent. Stall is induced as if they were getting low and didn’t add power to stop the descent or on the base to final leg in a turn. In most most cases a fatal approach to landing stall accident is on the base to final leg when power is still on. Not when someone is already in a round out +/- 10’ -20’ AGL. Not saying you are doing anything wrong just curious as to why you teach the maneuver that way. Cheers!

[@LewDixAviation]

The clue is in the name haha it’s a “power OFF” stall. And of course, I’m not saying your way is wrong either, but to me, power off implies that you are simulating pulling the power and flaring too early on a landing meaning flaring way too high.. this happens a lot in the early stages of training as I’m sure you’re aware. I’ve never had anyone question it before. Haha

[@brandonsorenson9178]

LewDix Aviation it may be in the name but as I read the ACS it states to configure airplane into a landing configuration, establish a stabilized descent, transition smoothly from the approach or landing attitude to a pitch attitude that will induce a stall. Doesn’t really clarify power should be at idle except for the name. Personally I teach as previously stated due to the fact that we see most lose control on the base to final leg with a power reduction.

[@brandonsorenson9178]

Also the recover procedure eats altitude. So really in a real life scenario if you are flaring too high and stall with power completely at idle...there is little chance of a recovery. On a base to final leg when you are typically 500 AGL you still have some room.

[@LewDixAviation]

If that’s what passes on a checkride for you, that’s sweeeet! My way is what passes my rides. At my airline it was always power fully idle too. I’ve never seen it done your way. Other than power on stalls of course. Interesting insight though man!

[@brandonsorenson9178]

Absolutely. By all mean I’m not saying you are wrong. We all have different teaching styles and little differences in procedures. Just curious since I like your videos. Fly safe!

[@vonnai7580]

4:05 Did he say "So you can go up to three thousand RPM"? If it's the case, it's strange that he was surprised by student going for these 3k RPM :D

[@jimmyoverly3512]

Mr. Lew, how what lengths do you prefer to do a lesson? One hour at a time? Longers?

[@LewDixAviation]

That depends on what you want to get out of the lesson and how quickly the student understands and performs things to my standards. I usually see from engine start to engine shut down these kind of flights are taking around 1.5. Give or take

[@lewisbelton2770]

Lol awesome

[@norbert2906]

You absolute muppets! XD

[@jan3195]

Is is me - or the camera angle - but you seemed to be banking right in almost every shot looking out the windshield...

[@LewDixAviation]

Trust your instruments
