Was having a pretty routine day until having my first real aborted takeoff. Luckily it was no issue and I just had a self no go event that needed to get solved before heading out again.
The trim indicator was not functioning correctly but the trim was. The trim was way forward and was taking a long time to come back and I rather just double check the plane than assume that's what the issue was.
Piper Cherokee 180.
I'm well aware of my struts.
this is like ernest goes flying :)
You just gained a follower, love your sense of humor
Dude, you are effing hilarious!!! Just binged your videos...I pray there are more coming!! Loving the content!!
Awesome!!! Very educational. Thank you. Keep posting. In process of taking my FAA written private pilot exam soon. Next year. It was a huge help.
nice video , was watching because I might fly this aircraft again-you got me with that "V1" speed, I thought what the hell, decision speed in a Cherokee??
Nice flying and some good common sense advice.
Very refreshing sense of humor as well as skill, subbed, looking forward to future content man
Great content Luke. Awesome editing. Always super helpful to watch other pilot's flight procedure, thanks for putting this out for all of us!
Fun to watch! Looking forward to more!
Hey Luke, I really like your videos and your easyness (sorry if I am using the wrong word) about flying. It is still very professional yet refreshing to see someonebeing a bit more laid back. I hope to see more of you in future. Give me a shout when you plan to come to Europe, I will take you for a tour here :-)
I appreciate this. I try to remind people that flying safe and trying to be professional can be a lot of fun and enjoyable, doesn’t have to be dangerous to be fun. I have more vivid memories of catching a good wind, or having a smooth landing than I do of doing aerobatics or flying something fast.
Nice work identifying the issue and setting her back down!
I subscribed and hit the bell in hopes that I get a notification at the next funeral I attend 🍻
Bro lost my $h!t at "2 hours later" man I needed that laugh. Great jobs man and I smashed the like and subscribe button.
Cool video! KLUG is home to us! We checked out Union City not too long ago.
We need more Tennessee CZcams pilots , & more Tennessee pilots period 🔥🔥🔥💪🏾
Big truth
Looking at joining a local club this week with a 180. Overall, my favorite dink-around bird. Also good for shorter XC's.
Lol! “More chili than a fellowship night at church.” (Baptist laugh)
and Great soft field landings!
That was amazing!! Super entertaining to watch.
You should consider doing a full flight with either a POV camera or a camera on the ceiling. There aren't like any full flights in this plane 😭😭. I feel like your commentary would keep it entertaining for the people who don't find the raw footage of this plane entertaining 🙄
This guy is alot of fun y'all!
Kudos for paying attention to the details. I recently had a first flight after an annual, doing the take off run, I was fully prepared and expected to abort takeoff .. but was still surprised when I actually DID abort. The mental part surprised me after the fact. I couldn't see why in the gauges, but something felt/sounded off. It was later verified via engine data, but .. it was the right call. Simple issue and resolved with additional run up time to move more oil to the prop that was a tad dry after some work. The harder part was the PIC decision on next steps. Trust the machine. Trust the process. Trust your experience. Next run sounded and felt right. She flew like the stable, smooth platform she always had before. Numbers were good AND felt right.
What you said about being surprised when you actually did abort is really relatable. What plane do you fly?
"attention to detail"???? The guy tried to take off with the trim nose down! Checklist,checklist,checklist.....DUH!!!!
The funniest video I've seen so far. Great job 👏. lol 😆.
I’m a cfi and I actually agree with your vx statement
600th Sub! 🎉
This is awesome
So nice I subscribed. Thanks!!
Dig the videos man nice work. My home airport is KJWN! That Arrow is one of my flight school planes.
Awesome! You talking about 88L at 11:10?
@@Lukewillcreate yep! I gotta get over to Union City looks awesome.
@@BrianSiskind heck yeah man, come visit, KUCY is a hotspot for tons of cools planes. Right now there are some pretty exotic ones here.
I fly at Murfreesboro (KMBT) and go to Shelbyville (KSYI) regularly. I thought that was me on the radio, as it sounded just like me. Sadly, tail number didn't match.
Very cool! What do you fly? I'll keep an ear out cause I'm in the area all the time. I'll make a point to come check out KMBT next time I'm over.
@@lukeslanding2230 Shoot, I'm still pursuing my ppl at Murfreesboro Aviation so anything they'll let me fly right now. Your videos are really well done, great content!
@@joshpowers1596 that’s great man! Keep at it! Consider popping over to KUCY on a x country sometime.
Parking break works to get a take-off Clearance faster.Ha Ha
I have that hat! I have that airplane. Subscribed !
If that’s your’s in your profile pic, it’s an absolute beaut.
Luke, I like the videos! I have a 73 PA28-180 I recently bought and have the same issue with the struts compressing and popping up when they want. What causes it? I'm about to service the struts to see if new 5606 solves it. Looking forward to hearing from you!
The seals in the struts may be done. Luckily they are pretty cheap to replace. It may also just need more nitrogen. Ask your A&P to check it out and I think it would be like $20 a strut for the rebuild kit, so prolly like $200 a strut in total or something like that after labor.
@@lukeslanding2230 thanks
i didnt know Dale Jr was a pilot! lol
Good video. What video editing do you use? I dont know how to change the angle views like you do.
I mainly use Premiere Pro and Davinci resolve. I’m a film producer full time so the video side is second nature in a way. Im glad you enjoy these.
The PA28 has plenty of elevator power to allow very clean and accurate mains wheel landing's followed by the nose wheel. Why would you want to land on the 3 wheels when it was never designed to do that.The PA28 has enermous pitch and trim to resolve any kind of landing. Despite the fact that the Cherokee is a tri gear aircraft all the landings need to be done onto the mains followed by an elevator let down onto the tri front wheel.
The strut seals were to be replaced on this airframe so I had to ensure I landed at the lowest touchdown rate I could without any stalling above the runway. The struts are fixed now but at the time, it wouldn’t have been good aiming for a stall out landing on the main at any height more than a couple feet. Also, the 140’s and 160’s, you can hold the nose off but this one runs out of elevator authority near stall. You can’t hold the nose off unless you load. But single pilot full fuel, it does not allow for this.
Great video! I noticed you switch tanks in traffic pattern. I was taught that tanks get switched on ground or a few thousand feet up.
I assume the rationale is that in the pattern you are within glide distance of a runway, so it's safe to switch tanks?
Not criticizing the approach, but it just goes against what I was taught.
You were taught correctly. This was a discontinuity with my verbal callouts. I always look at the switch and put my fingers on it to mark it in my memory. I called out switch tanks when I meant to say we're on fullest tank.
Enjoyed the video. What Brand/Model are you using for your in-ear headset?
Clarity Aloft. I think these are about $325 or so. I’ve actually lost these somehow this month. I’m going to probably try to get the Claritys with ANR. I’ve loved mine, you forget you’re wearing them.
Also, the Lightspeeds I was wearing were ones my brother bought, so I was technically delivering them to him on my head lol
Let it do,what it dooooo baybee!! 😂😂 What video is that?
😂 Another pilot named Donovan Batiste. He’s great, got a ton of good clips.
Where is the next vid Luke?
Been high season for my work, haven’t flown much. Should be back to it in the next few weeks
