Multi-Engine Training - Part 2 - VMC (Minimum Control Speed)

[@robincole5739]

I’ve been around a time or two, seen a thing or two, can recognize greatness when I see it. Your instructor, Doug Rozendaal, is one of aviation’s Crown Jewel Instructors - world-class ... and I’ve been so lucky to have flown with some of the very best during my 54 flying years. You and he are creating priceless videos. Keep up your good work, Martin.

[@martinpauly]

Thank you for your kind comments, Robin. I have been flying for over 30 years and worked with many different instructors in gliders and airplanes over time. Doug is outstanding, and it has been very rewarding not just to train with him, but also to be able to share some of his expertise with others, through these videos. Best regards, Martin

[@BoB4jjjjs]

I agree with what you say, excellent video of what would happen in a way most people would understand, even non- pilots could follow what he is saying, which I suppose is the point. excellent instruction and video.

[@randyporter3491]

Robin Cole That’s exactly what I said during the first video Robin. I’ve bern flying since the 80’s and Doug is the type of instructor everyone should want. Back when I was at 200 hrs or so, there was a “hard-ass” instructor, that everyone avoided. He was commercial check-ride instructor. He taught lower time pilots, preparing for check rides etc. on occasion. He was considered a bit grouchy and impossible to please. I asked him for some “advancement training”, because I felt I had stopped advancing. He agreed and said he had he own “pilot survival” training he would offer. Well, he was everything that everyone said. First couple of hours made me question my request. He could not be joked with, even in normal conversation. He wanted landings that didnt splash water in a cup and turns that had almost zero deviation. I could go on. We spent hour after hour on emergencies and actual grass strip landings. At the end of ten hours, he allowed me to discover that he was actually a really nice man, with a fun sense of humor after all. But, above all, I felt I had received training that few at my skill lever ever received. I would have loved getting future ratings from him, but he was involved with the airlines more at that point. Doug seems to have those same qualities, but more personable.

[@hassanlawal5579]

Robin Cole, you took those words right outta my mouth. This instructor here.....there's simply not enough words to describe him. Doug is the BEST!!!!!!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@fr8dogpilot]

Doug was my ATP examiner years ago. EXCELLENT Examiner, Pilot, and a truely great Person.

[@rudyjakma3664]

I am no longer flying because of my age. I was a commercial pilot with an ATR and about 4000 hours in light twins, most in a Cessna 310. Plus another roughly 5000 on singles, as well as about 13000 on turboprops, business jets and airliners. I never had an accident; I got away with some stupid stunts. What is explained here is of the highest quality. All pilots, either licenced or trainees, should pay attention to this. Superb and excellently explained. Studying this may well save your life one day.

[@martinpauly]

Thank you for the kind words. And I agree that this is serious material which every multi-engine pilot needs to understand. - Martin

[@rudyjakma3664]

@@martinpauly This is the kind of stuff that can 1. assist a newbie twin pilot to become competent and eventually lead to a career in the airlines and 2. save lives. I am Dutch, but live in ireland now. I was in a way lucky that I had very extensive single engine experience before moving to the 310. I flew many hours in Super Cubs, and even biplanes, I got myself in all sorts of bad weather, even got caught in a weather front that overtook me as I was towing a banner. Not things to be too proud of (I landed on the aerodrome of destination in weather that would today be classified as "Cat 2".). But it taught me to "feel" the aircraft. The jet airliner that I eventually flew was a BAC 1-11, the old-fashioned rods-and-wires controls. But what is described in this series is pure gold. Aviation has changed, pure flying skills are being replaced with electronics. But this stuff will stand ou, no matter what kind of llying you end up doing. Good luck and have a good career. Mine ended with 22.000 hours and accident-free. In spite of many stupid things. Some I survived by pure luck, but some because the underlying flying skills that I had acquired assisted in saving me..

Martin I have to Thank You , this video just save my life and my passengers, i have no words to describe how it feels loosing an engine in middle flight on rising terrain, we were very lucky , but me as a pilot these was my base knowlege to take action and take us safely to the ground. Amen For this Video

[@precisionaireaviation8970]

Wow, Doug's explanation on the importance of rudder size and rudder deflection on VMC was the best explanation I've heard yet on why some light twins have more benign VMC rolls than others. I've read a lot of multi-engine books and worked with many MEI instructors, but never had someone explain the impact of rudder design on VMC that clearly. Great video and I definitely plan on incorporating this into my own MEI instructing!

Wow Martin, I always thought I wanted a twin for peace of mind. Now I'm thinking if I get a twin, it will be a Cessna 337. Very informative. Thanks!

[@martinpauly]

I understand what you're saying, Alan. What I don't know is: If an engine fails in the 337, how will you know which one it is so you don't shut down the wrong one? That could be an even trickier problem (or maybe not - would love to hear from a 337 pilot). Best regards, Martin

[@srvafool]

@@martinpauly After watching the first lesson and hearing Doug say if you feather the wrong engine you probably couldn't recover (hence the slap the dead leg portion of the technique) I started looking at the safety factors of twins. Then I stumbled on the 337s. From what I understood, apart from the negative of not being able to see the rear engine, the consensus seems to be if you do lose an engine, it behaves like an extremely under powered single. Maybe someone with some actual experience with them will weigh in. This yaw factor thing takes staying proficient in conventional twins to another level. I understand Doug's insistence on creating a new neural pathway to learn the drill. It takes about 100 to 300 repetitions to create the pathway and then another 3000 to 5000 to make it where you don't have to think about it.

[@perleycarmichael5498]

What a great instructor for MEL! The memory routine soo very important, but for me, believe the great time on VMC the lifesaver. Trained folks in the C-310. “Once” learned how quick from control to spin entry. Train for the potential panic when it hits. Loved your video! Soo helpful for learning. Watch 10 times 😊

[@MartianSolarbuddy]

What a great video! When I got my multi-engine back in 1968 (Aztec) I don’t think I learned any of the concepts discussed in this lesson. I plan to make up for lost time.

[@victorcovarrubias3606]

This guy Doug amazing thank you Doug!

[@Metalgearmadness]

I did my training in a seminole, and it's very tame on the vmc demonstration. We only take it to stall or first indication of a loss of directional control. Something to think about for your checkride is that an examiner may block your pedal in which it will cause you to begin that yaw/roll into the inop engine early, so be able to identify that.

[@markharris1804]

Best Period of Instruction ever on VMC

[@brettwest549]

Outstanding video, and Doug is the best instructor i have seen on KZbin (and there are a lot!) Absolutely fascinating. As a SES pilot, I of course have contemplated going for a twin rating. But I had no idea about the risk of blue line in a twin. It has caused some pause for me in my twin interest. After all, you have 2 engines, so twice the probability of an engine failure (twice the equipment to go wrong) and with the risk of a snap roll, is the second engine’s benefit worth the additional risk? I honestly don’t know. My guess is there are newer twin designs that mitigate the risk, perhaps a larger tail fin to lower blue line. I will research much further if/when I go for a twin rating. Thanks so much for an outstanding video Martin, you are a gem in KZbin’s pilot community, i suspect you will surpass the Steveo1 and Flight Chops sub numbers in time. Huge fan! And a bonus of your channel is you do not beg for Patreon money, bravo!!

[@martinpauly]

Thanks for the kind feedback, Brett - please spread the word, my channel could benefit from a little publicity since it's not very well known yet. Regarding Doug, I agree, he is a phenomenal instructor and pilot, and an anchor of the aviation community in northern Iowa - he hosts a BBQ at the Mason City airport every month at his hangar, a very popular event. Twins COULD be safer than singles in theory, but in real life they aren't - probably due to pilots not doing enough regular training. That second engine, when one fails, can either safe your bacon or kill you, depending on well you respond. Best regards, Martin

Martin - really great video. I'm a private pilot (professional hobby) and have owned/flown an Aztec, Chieftan and in a few days a 414. I do not recall in training (initial or recurrent) such a good explanation of the true dangers around VMC. On the 414 (as in all of my twins) I'm installing VGs which reduces the 414 book VMC by 9kts to 73kts and the stall speed is 79kts. In theory the wing stall break would occur before the tail... not that I'd want to test the theory. Thanks again.

Thanks, Jordan. Are those VGs you're installing on the rudder or the wing? (Or both?). The Baron we did the training in has VGs on the rudder (well, one side of it) to reduce VMC. Congrats on the 414, I hope it'll serve you well. - Martin

@@martinpauly Hi Martin, the VGs cover the wing and rudder. I'm also installing speed brakes and the enhanced intercooler from American Aviation in the hopes of getting to and from the flight levels more quickly with less engine stress.

Great video Martin, especially the verbal explanations together with superb visualizations makes it super informative. High educational value in a smooth setting which unexpectedly made me (SEP) so enthusiastic now that I am considering to start a ME training myself. I liked as glider pilot also the use of the yaw straw, super to combine it with the cord line of the vertical stabilizer, explaining its AoA and how that changes. Great info but practice is key as you say. Carry on doing these videos and success with your further training.
