Carrie's First Solo Flight - Again
Просмотров 12014 дней назад
In this video my flight student Carrie solo's for the first time - again. A year ago she had solo'd, but her college career forced her to put her pilot aspirations on hold. She is now back flight training and we were able to get her re-solo'd so that she could now move forward with cross country flight training, night flight, Basic Attitude Instrument Flying, and much more. #firstsoloflight #so...

How to Calculate Aircraft Weight and Balance
Просмотров 95Месяц назад
In this video I discuss the important reasons on why pilots need to do a weight and balance calculation prior to every flight and then show how to calculate aircraft weight and balance. I calculate weight and balance on a Piper Warrior II training aircraft in a common configuration. #airplane #flying #flight #flying #flightinstruction #learntofly #weightandbalance #weight&balance
Tailwheel Flight Instruction and Backcountry Flying
Просмотров 377Месяц назад
In this video I do some solo tailwheel flight instruction by demonstrating a few of my landings in the Piper Super Cub, including both Wheeled Landings and 3 Point Landings. I did about a dozen takeoffs and landings in the session, getting myself fine-tuned for the summer months. I also fly up over the Belknap Mountains and go around Governors Island on Lake Winnipesaukee for a little backcount...

In this video I take one of my CFI flight students out for a flight in my Super Cub. We fly north to Plymouth, NH and land at 1P1 (Plymouth Municipal Airport), give him a chance to do some steep turns, and deal with nearby air traffic.

The Three Seasons of Floatplane Flying

I met a fellow land and seaplane pilot yesterday while we waited on my flight student to complete his Private Pilot Checkride in Laconia, NH.

We wound up spending most of the day chatting, sharing adventures, and him taking me out for a coffee and a burger. He shared with me some of h...

Chris' First Solo Flight
Просмотров 3693 месяца назад
Weather was so good we were delayed a couple of weeks in getting Chris to have his first solo flight. I wanted to make sure he had some good crosswind practice before I soloed him. Fortunately, a few days before he soloed, he had the chance to be humbled with some pretty tough crosswinds. Today, however, the weather was perfect and Chris took to the skies in his first solo flight. #flying #solo...

    My 17 year old son slated to get his license tomorrow here in Ft.Wayne.,Was a pilot at 16 but you have to wait until your 17th birthday. So many weather and check pilot delays but months later, here we are!!! He’s going to fly commercial. Congrats on your flying!!!!!!!!

    What kills a good amount of pilot for qualifying for basic med is the having a third class or higher before a certain time. Eliminate that date. I went to sea as a career change for 15 years. I sold my plane and gave up my hanger. Now that I am retired, I would like to get a basic med. The fear of being denied a third class med because of certain but approved prescription drugs has kept me from doing so. Once denied you are screwed. Also it is hard to find a Designated 5:45 Medical Examiner. Our two is 250k plus a student population of 72k. What is up with that?

    • @Mistamannfour
      @Mistamannfour 2 дня назад

      I think the initial basic med had a 10 year look back from 2016 when basic med went into effect. So, if you received a 3rd class medical after 2006, and you meet the other requirements, you qualify to fly under basic med.

    The DPE problem is the biggest problem addressed! Most DPEs now are not even responding to repeated phone calls and/or texts. This pressures candidates not to discontinue for weather or illness for fear of adding another 4 months onto their checkride.

  • @mtnairpilot
    @mtnairpilot 2 дня назад

    My guess is the insurance companies will have something to say about a pilot with Basic Med flying an airplane with 12,500 lbs gross weight. Generally they have begun declining to cover pilots over 70 flying multi-engine turbine aircraft single pilot.

    • @FalconImagery
      @FalconImagery 9 дней назад

      Vmd is the minimum drag speed, where the parasitic and induced drag curves intersect, basically Vg (Best Glide Speed), or also the speed Vbe which gives you the maximum endurance speed.

      I got my Private Pilot License at 49 years old, and then kept on going to get my Instrument Rating, Commercial License, Flight Instructor (CFI), Flight Instructor - Instrument (CFII), Commercial Float Plane, and a few other types of endorsements. Heck, I was 56 when I finally got my CFI. So at 52 years old, you have a lot of time left. So get out there and do it. I have had students get their Private Pilot Certificate at 63 years old.
