[@ReivanLunoxis]

the amount of times i forgot to retract flaps and wondering why my climb performance was shit made the start of the video so much funnier LMAO

[@paolo2878]

You already know it's gonna be a good video when these two are flying together

[@jonb6226]

"Gareth, why are we going left?" "Well, a combination of p-factor, spiralling slipstream and gyroscopic precession." "And..?" "Got my foot on the left pedal."

[@jalensi1978]

Congrats Gareth!

[@Kujjiman]

He was really convinced the Density Altitude was hindering the climb 😂

[@LewDixAviation]

I mean it’s hot so it was in a way... but so we’re the flaps 😂

[@TheodoreViollet]

Student pilot from Massachusetts here. Absolutely love your videos. Always make my day and help me with training.

[@LewDixAviation]

Glad to hear it! Thank you!

[@psychastria]

This is the kind of instructor every pilot should start out with: someone who you have fun with in the air. The ones who make it fun are the ones who keep pilots coming back for more. I've known (and flown with) CFIs who seemed to have a rod up their butt and they made it anywhere from boring to frustrating or intimidating. When flying with someone like that, all I wanted to do was get back on the ground be done with the flight.

[@JodelFlyer]

Congratulations Gareth and well done Lewis. Great instructing and needless to say, a great video!

[@ImShakesbeard]

Man I love these vids! I wish I had an instructor like you..good times all round

[@aviator_thomas]

Amazing good landings!!! Well done, Sir. Lewis, nice job! Once again!

[@GGAviation]

Gareth doing superb as always :)

[@larryfatty5377]

Congrats Gareth!!!!

[@kdub-1200]

Well done! I'll have my PPL checkride in April (hopefully). This will be a great review!

[@matthewpaxton2832]

One super short note: Once the nose touched down on the last landing he pushed the yoke back in and then got rid of flaps and then pulled the yoke back (to continue bleeding off airspeed). Be careful with that! If you're intending to use aerodynamic braking, keep the pressure back on the yoke until the speed dies down AND THEN get rid of flaps. There's a small margin of airspeed where pulling back on the yoke too early will pop you back up in the air and that's not something fun to mess with. It's a small detail but can be a sketchy situation if not done in the safe and proper order. Just something to watch for! Overall looks great!

[@jo2ed]

Fun video to watch. I have yet to forget my flaps, but everyone says it'll happen eventually haha. Thanks for sharing!

[@KimWentworth-y8e]

I have for got the. Yep, Made that mistake.

[@onthemark40]

Welcome to the sky is a little sluggish today due to density altitude.......and flaps!! 🤣. That was absolutely awesome. I have not laughed so hard in a long time. I can see a new t-shirt coming 😀.

[@ZeroThreeDelta]

😂

[@wallyt70]

YOU effers!!! Im laughing my ars off!!! and your FLAPS!

[@ZeroThreeDelta]

I’m such an idiot 😂

[@musjannaty5799]

I am not sure if you both remind me of The Two Ronnies or is it Morecambe & Wise? 😂 Either way you make for a great couple or should I say duo 👯‍♂️🤣. Always good to watch a bit of 'flappage'. With my CAA SEP rating is well and truly expired and I will need to brush up on all of this so great to see you execute it with a bit of panache 😎

[@andrewm1058]

I had a laugh at the density altitude part. Congrats too!!

[@MikeSierra8282]

Dont blame yourself, it 's not your fault:-) just kidding

[@jonwillson5366]

Congratulations 👏!

[@kinsleysykes5509]

Best part was being able to see the flap in the video while the question was being asked.

[@jo2ed]

😆😆 agreed.

[@SteveMiddleton]

That was some thoughtful editing 😆

[@cavok1984]

Congrats Gareth

[@thijseggen2880]

This genuinly made me laugh, fun vid!

[@MatthewMiller716]

These practice area names give me PTSD... I'm a Riddle grad. Oh the nightmares of those practice areas. KC-135R USAF Pilot meow. Big fan 🤙 I heard that 492ER call.. Yikes 🙃

[@matanelimelech4614]

Hope all is well, was wondering what flight school this is?

[@valberlin9239]

Lol, yea sometimes Flaps do that. 😄😄

[@Jeffopar]

FYI Flying eyes has adhesive foggles for your sunglasses. 😎

[@gregr8349]

Student pilot here going into Lesson 7.... seeing those flaps down I thought “f*ck, have I been taking off wrong this whole time?”

[@RicSantos]

Nice Brazilian shirt 😃, and great content as usual.

[@LewDixAviation]

Obrigado!

[@ke6nez]

Hey Lew your student looks great. My only concern is that he's not really outside the cockpit like I feel he should (yes my opinion). I like to see my students when doing those maneuvers to really look outside the cockpit and looking for traffic. Checking left window and sweeping to the right while verifying position with instruments. Again, just my opinion and how I teach.

[@brianpetrow7218]

Ahhh to be back in a piper...

[@harrisongould9460]

I've been so guilty of not raising flaps that on a short 30 miles cross county to meet a friend, I noticed they were at 10%(when in the pattern)like I set them previously for takeoff. I made it, no harm done and this forced me to use my checklist more. Be sure to share an update if he passed/failed his check ride.

[@systemloc]

Density altitude. In Orlando. Man I laughed hard at that. It didn’t help that the video foreshadowed it showing the flaps still down in the previous shot

[@collinmiller2027]

@LewDix What school do you train at?

[@HiddenWindshield]

So, the knob was being a bit of a knob? Isn't that, in fact, the very *job* of a knob? 😛

[@TerryD23]

So what's the difference between FLY STRAIGHT OUT and FLY RUNWAY HEADING?

[@michaellang8065]

Always think someone is blowing out a big hit when your intro starts

[@oscarbaez3097]

Can I still be able to get my 1 class medical if my vision can only be corrected to 20/25?

[@naterengo2861]

What is he rotating by the heading indicator? I’ve never seen that before.

[@JustinJackson11]

You mean the heading bug? It's just an indicator to help you keep track of your desired heading.

[@dangryder6050]

Wait so was it a bit when he was calling into your livestream or was he really studying for his checkride?

[@LewDixAviation]

😂 I mean he thought he could put Jet A in a cherokee to go faster............

[@ZeroThreeDelta]

@@LewDixAviation 😂😂😂 I told you your acting was on point!

[@LewDixAviation]

@@ZeroThreeDelta 😂😂

[@SteveMiddleton]

I mean that is just a real classic comedy moment. I loved that Lewis cut in a camera angle of the flaps obviously still deployed before Gaz tried to explain why the thing was refusing to climb. I think ‘Density Altitude’ is gonna be your new nickname Gareth 🤣🤣 Congrats on passing your check ride though!👍

[@Spray-N-Pray]

It's sad that we will never see Lewdix and Gareth together again. He doesn't need you anymore. 😢

[@LewDixAviation]

I’ll be back in 24 months with his BFR. Then he’ll want me

[@Spray-N-Pray]

@@LewDixAviation 🤣

[@JoshuaSobel]

@@Spray-N-Pray or maybe his instrument rating

[@Spray-N-Pray]

@@JoshuaSobel yeah man, I figured. I was trying to get a Lewdix reaction. Mission accomplished, so my day is complete now. 😉

[@ZeroThreeDelta]

Oh, this is definitely not the last time you’ll see us together. We’ll be doing other things, for sure.

[@andreww3803]

Have done that so many times leaving the flaps up and you know your instructor is hinting at something dumb you missed..

[@onthemark40]

LMAO. Luckily don’t have to pull the recording on this one........ Are you alright, really quiet...... Just be a pilot man.....do what pilots do.... I am doing what pilots do..... Just be a pilot man..... What the f@#$ are you talking about 🤣 Don’t overthink anything....just do your normal shit..... I’m waiting to see if you do something...... That’s off, that’s full rich, that’s off, that’s off, that’s off, within 10 miles landing lights..... Sound like an approach briefing to me 😀 Awesome video!! Great job on your PPL Gareth!!

[@jameswadsley3165]

The number of times your students forget to retract or extend flaps is a little startling. Fortunately they have an awesome instructor who doesn't beat them up about it. Great job instructing! Just out of curiosity so I can try it in the sim, what is your soft field rotation speed?

[@sizzlingsteak5046]

Hey dude there’s nothing wrong with yanking. I do a lot of yanking at night time 😂😂💀💀
