In flight training you definitely have good and bad days.

Crosswind circuits are up there with the most challenging and will test you both physically and mentally. Thanks for sharing!

This. Before COVID f'd things up I had some stressful spin training and rough crosswind landings due to poor rudder control that messed me up. One landing I continued when I should have gone around and ended up porpoising. Hard to believe now but it doesn't take long to get into the mindset of getting it down regardless. Thankfully the CFI took the controls, but I was pretty disheartened afterwards. Looking forward to getting back to training.

By far... the best video you've posted to date! The funny thing is this has nothing to do with you (no offense) and everything to do with your student, JD! The most important part of this video was when JD said "you know what... can we make this our last one". I, personally, went through this exact frustration last night (17 Feb). During a two hour night flight (~60 hours into my PPC), I began to get so frustrated on my crappy landings (haven't flown for two 1/2 weeks due to weather cancellations), that I also said "I'm done. Let's head back". There comes a point where the frustration gets to such a level that the student begins to completely block the instructions given by the CFI. I know when I'm in this state because the errors I make begin to accumulate. First time... I'm too high on final. Second time.... air speed too high. Third time.... forgot carb heat. Fourth time.... ****I'm basically calling myself a fu*(*&# idiot!".*****. Kudos to JD for recognizing this and not allowing external pressure, in this case the CFI (no offense) making him continue to push. Sometimes you just need to land; take a day or two to process everything that did, or did not, take place, and then have another go at it. I will say I felt a sense of relief when I heard those words from JD. Glad to know I'm not the only one dealing with this frustration. HUGE thanks to LewDix for posting this video.

I know exactly how JD feels. When your instructor tells you, ok aileron correction, make sure you are using that opposite rudder to keep your nose on the center line. You use the aileron, then you start to turn and you use the rudder because it feels f*cked up when you start drifting. If you aren’t doing enough or too much rudder, you feel even more wonky, then you start to get nervous because you know that you’re not doing anything right and you’re close to the ground so now you’re more nervous. Then, you add the component that not only do you want to get it right, but you also want to get it right for your instructor so they don’t think your a complete donut. A lot of shit going on when you are practicing something that you have to nail in seconds. It’s like you know what you need to do, but when you put it together and it doesn’t turn out the same as when the instructor does it you feel even more frustrated and down on yourself. It’s intimidating when you are trying to do something that the person next to you thinks is so easy and you don’t. As a student pilot who doesn’t have hours and hours of experience, it is not yet instinctual to make these corrections. It is nerve racking to be a student sometimes. I really enjoy the way you teach and the fun that you have. I could just see that JD was taxed at the end. For me, it is easy to get in my head and start beating myself up. Appreciate the videos! BTW, I received my two new logo LD shirts. Super cool! Can’t wait until it warms up here to show them off!

I was out of the game for 25 years, but got back into flying 2 years ago. Crosswind correction was tough for me when I started flying again. I just wasn't getting it. For me I relearned like this: Hey I'm in a crab on final, I can't land with my nose pointed 10 deg to the right, I need to straighten it, so apply left rudder. Oh, now I'm drifting to the left, I need to lean right to stop that. I apologize as many instructors teach lean, then rudder, but the opposite just worked for my brain and I've been pretty comfortable with crosswind landings since then.

I have to be honest, my instructor never told me after a flight, 'are you ready to get a new ar****le', and on the taxi home, 'next time we're kicking that in the c***!' Circuits are the most tedious and depressing part of the PPL syllabus, and I know I didn't get crosswind landings until long after getting my ticket if truth be told. I think what struck me throughout this lesson was that the student was low on approach EVERY TIME, and many of the problems would have been easier to manage if he'd worked that out. Thanks for the entertaining and informative vid as always Lewis.

My instructor had me do a couple of crosswind landings where he landed the plane, but told me to use rudder to keep the nose pointed at the far end of the runway. Then we did a couple more where he handled rudder control and I landed and used aileron to stay on the centerline. Really helped to drill those skills one at a time. And whenever I was just holding the controls steady, he would say "keep flying the airplane" -- I still hear that in my head on a gusty crosswind landing!

Every approach looks like you are doing a long low pass over a large body of water. Did you consider what will happen if you lost power? I thought I heard the controller clear a jet to land and so I am assuming that the runway is at least 5000 ft. If that is true, wouldn't it make more sense to turn base and final lot sooner, spend little or no time over water and land long? You will never face the prospect of landing on water.

I can relate to this as it happened to me fairly recently. Gaps in training can erode your ability to anticipate what the plane is going to do in response to your control input. So you end up lagging in the action-reaction sequence of events. JD knows what is happening but isn't able to keep up or forgets that he needs to adjust. For that first approach, he cut power and extended flaps without much delay. And then he lowers the nose. So essentially he set himself up for a quick descent. He's lost 300-400ft by the time he questions whether he should be descending or holding altitude. That's a "late" question to ask. And when he's told he's low moments later, he still goes ahead and deploys all his flaps by final. That indicates to me that he's being mechanical about the process. I know this because I did the same mistake just a month ago. JD just needs to get back in the plane soon and needs to work on getting ahead of the plane. I'd like to add that I am in the same stage as JD in the training process. Pre-solo student with many hours of touch and go so this video was very relatable.

Every student pilot, if properly saturated work load wise by an instructor, should know when to be pilot in charge, and make the call, today is not the day, let's head back in and try again another day. It may take a couple of days or a week, before you get to process all the errors, in your mind, and how to correct. Then you go out and try it again. It's VERY important to be well rested, no external pressures or stress going on in the rest of your life, relationship, work, etc, BEFORE you start flying for the day. YOU need to be running 100%, so that you can focus and task at 100%. Perhaps Lou should have taken the controls after 2 attempts, to show the student, again, how a stabilized approach is done. Many people learn visually.

Hell, I was punched on the leg (light enough to not be painful, just to be felt as a knock) by my driving instructor after I went into a highway off ramp at too high speed and mentally tunnel visioned on "Not braking while taking a curve" so I was stock stiff focused on curving down that ramp at the speed I was at. Got lovetapped at the bottom and pulled back down to earth. It was the only real mistake I did all around, but he still chewed me up over it just so I would remember it despite being so 'proper' otherwise. In fact, I was so good at the end that my final practical exam was cut short. So yeah, this made it stick in my mind even for something as mundane as driving, and even though I was great at everything else, I still had a very bad moment that "IRL" could endanger the lives of others and/or mine.

this student is so bloody overconfident... needs to focus on the flying as opposed to making jolly reassuring noises.

As soon as this person started to use expletives I came off this video ..totally unacceptable language to a student pilot. And totally uncalled for. I watched about ten seconds wrote this and moved onto to another video. Further had my instructor talked to me this way I would have taken my business somewhere else, these so called instructors forget students are also customers. change the X for ckhead very appropriate..

A communication style that works for you might not necessarily be the best for somebody else. Perhaps you should chill out.
