Great video you, killed it! I like the new format of explaining the gist in a very short period of time. This is the way to go, quick and concise!

[@ujd2930]

Man pilot institute is changing the game with the studying. The best graphics and explanations out there ! I just finished the chapter on airspace in the course as well. I love the models you created ! Amazing lol

[@PilotInstituteAirplanes]

Thanks! Much more to come. 👏

There isn’t a speed limit of 250 kts within Class B airspace. There is no speed limit at all within this airspace. Only have to comply with the 250 below 10000 rule.

This airspace looks like an inverted wedding cake.! thanks from Algeria !!

[@9LimaAlpha7]

what is a statue mile?

[@PilotInstituteAirplanes]

Statute mile is just a "regular" mile. We use statute to differentiate with a Nautical Mile, which is also used in aviation for other things. Typical weather is measured in statute miles, distances and speeds use nautical miles.

[@steveschafer8606]

I am very confused. I have watched several videos on air space. on your video, class B is 10,000 MSL, Class C you use 4,000 AGL and Class D 2,500 AGL. Everyone else is using MSL on Class B,C, D. which is correct?

[@PilotInstituteAirplanes]

It depends on what you are referencing. Class C and D are DEFINED by AGL. That's how tall they are. Class B is always MSL because it's so tall. But those airspace are DEPICTED as MSL on the chart. So for example, a Class D airspace at an airport that's 5000 feet above sea level is still 2500 feet AGL (aka 2500 feet tall) but would be depicted as 7500 feet MSL.

[@steveschafer8606]

@@PilotInstituteAirplanes ok,, lol. I understand now. Hopefully. So, a class D will always be 2500 feet AGL. But the airport itself may be at 1,000 feet MSL and on the chart it will say 3,500 feet MSL?

[@PilotInstituteAirplanes]

Correct, you got it!

[@388sbc5]

Next time please none of that weird background changing/music, great video otherwise

[@ivan5187]

I'd enjoy it much better without sound effects.

[@charted8015]

OMG, this is so far the best video about airspace. No others better than this. Concise, no bs, accurate, and easy to understand.

[@PilotInstituteAirplanes]

Thank you! 👏
