Excellent program. Thanks guys.

Very good review. Thanks

I have watched each mock since my student pilot phase, now in Commercial. You guys have helped a bunch! Thanks for the great videos!

Just passed my commercial oral and listened to this video at least 7 times prior to it. Thank you guys for making this a free resource for pilots to use. It's a great resource to get yourself into the mindset and familiar with how an oral will similarly go. It's important for anyone else who's preparing for the oral to understand this video is far from the sufficient knowledge you will need to pass the stage check, your examiner can ask any number of questions on whatever topics related to the ACS that they so choose. Study EVERYTHING

Think back: while you were immersed in your dire situation, all around you were pilots who fly in that kind of weather all the time and think nothing of it. To them everything was normal; they had no idea that in your cockpit panic was at the threshold. Experience and training make all the difference in the world. Makes you think, doesn’t it? Tell us: when you found yourself suspended inside that virtual ping-pong ball and unable to see anything but white and water, did you ever feel like you couldn’t breathe and were about to drown?

Thank you so much kind sir

This was so valuable. Thank you 🙏🏾

By the time I finished planning, the route was not straight. The last point to the destination was 6 degrees different. I’ve watched this video multiple times. But I don’t see what I’m doing wrong.

Thank you guys!

Frustrating that aviation tools are still stuck in the decleration of independence era. You better learn how to use a non electronic flight computer, a plotter, and sectional. Even though you'll never use one in your aviation career.

49:32 You're looking at the agl/msl of the towers and doing all the math to figure out the ground level... and then you realize that the point you selected has all the info in the right hand column - lat / long / and MSL! All teasing aside, I'm prepping for my commercial checkride and loved your video. Even though I couldn't get it out of my head that you were doing some sort of a split screen edit with yourself in different clothes the whole time.

I am working on getting my Private Pilots License and are preparing for my check ride. do you have any checklists that pertain to PPL Checkride procedures? i was working on creating the ideas i had but as you know this is time consuming. are you willing to share what you have that would pertain to PPL Checkride like maneuvers etc. I am willing to pay for them if you have venmo. Thank you I love your videos

Thank you

that was bananas... That dude's face must look like a red flag! lol.

I just got my ppl a couple days ago and I must say this video helped me a ton! Pretty much every question is answered perfectly. Although my Dpe went more into emergency based scenarios and alternator failures, from this video I felt completely prepared. Thank you for making this awesome study tool for aspiring pilots.

how was the flying in Alaska?

When discussing the 35 in the Delta airspace, what do yo mean by solid boxes? I always thought if it had a minus in front, it meant up to 3,499 not to include 3,500. Do you mean that solid versus dashed can also mean that? Where did you find that information?

You can find the symbols' legend in Foreflight. Under the "Documents" tab, select FAA then "Legends", then "NOAA Imagery Legends"

If the passengers want to pass out , they can pass out 😂

A02 means there is a precipitation sensor and discriminator. PWINO means that sensor is unavailable.

Just wanted to say thanks for this great video! Several of the topics were presented very similarly in my checkride and helped cement my ground knowledge. Thanks for helping me feel confident, to learn new things, and pass my commercial oral!

Very helpful, y’all!

Turn around!

Checkride tomorrow 7/19/24. Terrified. No matter the result, I'll let you guys know!

I wish this video had more dpe explanations in text with a better explanation of what the student was trying to reach for or at least more info on the matter. A lot of times I wasn’t sure if he was getting something wrong or if there was a better way to say it.

Where is it?

this guy needs to brush up on his weather lmao

Designated what examiners?

How much for the plane??

I want to know how you pinched the measuring tools without having your fingers in the way

What’s a stabilized approach? “One where you’re not doing steep turns or s-turns” Bro what? 😂

This works great thank you!

Great video and a great resource, appreciate the small and technical questions. Even though the student does gets the majority of the questions correct it would be nice to get the technical and complete answers to some of your questions on the side when the student struggles to form an answer, Thanks for the vid!

Might sound stupid but, when I first saw one of your mock checkride videos I thought it was the same guy pretending to be student and dpe, made by editing the video 😂😂😂

are these guys brothers i swear from the PPL video to the instrument to this mock checkride they look more and more alike 😂 you guys are awesome keep up the awesome videos!!

This is so helpful to student pilots like me

Does anyone know how they got the procedure altitude constraints to show on the map view? Example at 47:12

one of the best online ones

Good video but what's with the forced blinking. Get some eye drops or something.

You may want to review engine roughness. The electric fuel pump is not only for starting. Floor to door would tell you fuel selector (both), fuel shutoff (off--in), mixture full rich, ill leave out throttle setting because you arent restarting the engine, and electric fuel pump on. You could have lost your mechanical engine driven pump and gravity could not properly get fuel to the distribution block. It could also be that you have the fuel too rich for the alt you are at, or climbing out getting detonation because the engine is too hot, so you have to lower the nose to get cooling.

Great job sharing your experience. One lesson I took away from this was to file an IFR plan on the ground if there’s any chance of weather issues, and cancel in the air if things turn out nice. Instead of taking off VFR and then having to duck around clouds, terrain and airspaces while filing a pop-up IFR.

This was actually really good and made me laugh a few times. “Like flying a bicycle” “make sure it has an engine”

cold front usually worst weather unstable atmosphere 3+ degrees per 1000 ft, good visibility possible squall lines and showery weather warm front good visibility due to stable atmosphere 2 degrees every 1000 ft and steady rain if any

I have my check ride at the end of the month. I’ve been diving into common and private carriage. And I think the scenario with your friend paying is perfectly OK to fly, your legal bro.

why do you look the same XD

I knew exactly what the military zone around Rangeley Lake is. Unfortunately, I am not at liberty to disclose what it is. I spent a week up there 20 years ago during a blizzard.

I never take the time to comment but this was put together very well, and very specific, more than any other mock check rides I watched. The nit picky questions is what sets the tone in a a check ride, if you know the little details you know your stuff.. thanks for the video

AWESOME! Thank you!!

Hate to piss in your cornflakes, but no, you can’t just discontinue for any reason. I recommend telling the DPE you’re not feeling well.

You guys sound so alike made it hard to follow who's talking at times 😂 I only listened to the Audio mostly
