    .
    . We're back for another flight lesson with Sienna. She's a student pilot working on her private pilot certificate. She's excited for flight training, and we've been flying regularly. Technically, she can't even solo yet, but she is excited about pursuing a career in aviation.
    On this flight lesson we've already broken the ice with a discovery flight, and a first lesson. Now we get deeper into the intricacies of controlling the aircraft, a Cessna 172. This is arguably the most essential part of flight training, as these initial lessons will stick with a pilot for the rest of their flying life.
    After we take off from Homer Airport, we immediately get into a discussion about coordination. Essentially, we need to connect our hands and feet to our mind. Our feet should be moving a lot more than people realize, keeping the aircraft coordinated.
    We take this through all different types of turns. Coordinating at all times is very essential. This is what we call "Stick and Rudder" flying. It should be a part of all initial flight training, no matter what airplane is flown.
    Part of Stick and Rudder is stalls as well. We begin to cover that as well, showing and listening to the signs of a stall. And talking about how to overcome those stalls, which is the most important part.
    Eventually, because we've been turning so much, we do steep turns. Steep turns accentuate all of the things we did in the other turns.

      My CFI taught me to listen to how things sounded at all airspeeds and angles of attack. He taught me to listen to that and know it was an indication that we were close to stalling.

    I just passed my PPL checkride at the end of this past September, and haven't really flown a lot since, due to trying to save up money and pay off debt until I start my IFR training, but I love watching your videos because they keep me proficient at least on the knowledge of flying the airplane even when I'm not flying, and these lessons are bringing me back to my first few lessons a year ago. Even post checkride, It's important to keep hammering in the basics and your videos are helping me with that so thank you 😀

    I’m 3 lessons in, 3 hours logged…
    I liked:
    1) more rudder at first then ease off
    2) more right rudder is necessary due to left turning tendency
    3) earmuff off to hear stall
    Love your videos.

      @zachg6456 Před rokem +4

      The whistle itself isn’t from the air separating from the wing, it’s an indication from the stall horn that the air is separating. Without the reed in the stall horn there wouldn’t be a whistle.

    Stunning office you have there. I'm in the UK at the solo circuit bashing stage of my PPL. I have often dipped into your videos to refresh on whatever I happen to be working on at the time. Having another FI talk about a topic (sometimes in a different way) just adds to my comprehension. My home airfield is in the middle of the South Downs National Park near the south coast. It feels an absolute privilege to be able to see the exceptional views we are lucky enough to have here. Love your work, and thank you.

To fly a airplane and keep the nose down and keep it level and don't pick up your speed too far. I will have the control of the plane❤

    G,day from Sydney Australia.
    'What did I learn'
    * AoA has a learner (student pilot).
    * 423U is Airworthy
    * V1 speed - rotation
    * Coordinated turns 'step on the ball'
    and maintenance of altitude horizon 'over the nose.'
    * Disapating the plane's energy and reaching the AoA for stalling the plane.
    * Location of RWY and decent rate 'with radio intentions/clearance.
    * Reaching the RWY surface at the optimal glide slope and KIAS as specified in the POH (or windspeed) conditions.
    I enjoyed the outlook: being the views.

    So for your student, I just finished my BFR with 18 yrs and 945 hours. My instructor had me in slow flight at 60 kts in a Piper Dakota. We pulled the power to idle, maintained 500 fpm descent and then pulled up and left bank (like an aw shucks moment in the final turn). Just to feel the fall off from 3000 ft. You never stop learning. Thanks for the work you do.

    What a beautiful place to learn to fly. I went on a trip to Homer over a decade ago and did some awesome halibut fishing, but the view from the sky is so much more stunning. I'm currently learning how to fly over vast flat farmlands, there is a massive mountain range out by the airport and the cities that people travel here to see, but we go the opposite direction of them to train, so not a whole bunch to look at, although I find myself paying no attention at all to the scenery at this stage so I guess it's not a huge deal, I'm just concentrated on flying the plane and looking at the horizon or good fields to land in.

    I guess I got a lot of my flight training on the ground, from my Dad who flew a C-47 on D-day and throughout the war, and then came home to fly a V-Tailed Doctor Killer for a construction company until heart issues grounded him I talked a lot about the intricacies of airmanship. My second flight instructor also flew the C-47, but for the Air Force, and his aircraft was actually an EC-47 flying over Vietnam and such places, as the guys in the back tried to figure out electronically where the North Vietnamese SAM sites were. Both of them knew their planes, and their operating systems to a T.
    My brother came home, and flew in no particular order that I can repeat for the Kansas ANG (KC-135) and Alaska ANG (KC-135) and he was an I-P on those 135's. Knew them inside and out, backwards and forwards.
    He then worked for Beechcraft and Hawker, training pilots on King Airs and Hawker Bizjets,
    When he had time to come to Baton Rouge, we'd rent a 152, 172, or Cherokee D and I build my air time with him. Since he was a CFI-I by them, it was all legal.
    So when I started my lessons on my own, the very first one, my poor instructor told me "You already know what to do, so let's get in and go." Se we would get ATIS, then contact ground for taxi and Runway in Use, taxi out to the run up area, do all that, then switch to tower, get our take off clearance and turnout, and go!
    I already knew about trim and keeping the ball centered, using right rudder on takeoff climb (if you had an American engine) and finding your spot on the windscreen that matched your horizon, and all that neat stuff. I lot of students get intimidated by the radio. I was a cop, so listening to and talking on the radio was normal to me, other than having to learn a few different terms.
    Honestly, with my one continuous CFI, he didn't do much more than bring his cup of coffee and talk me through the maneuvers, then sign me off for my solos and solo cross-countrys. He hardly ever touched the controls unless he wanted to show off with a STEEP side slip or forward slip, and engine-out practice was fun, too.
    If I could add one thing to this video:
    EVERY student should have and READ a copy of "Stick and Rudder: An Explanation of the Art of Flying"
    by Wolfgang Langewiesche.
    It truly makes you understand that the stick or yoke control is the speed control, and the throttle is the altitude control when the wing has attained the proper attitude of minimum angle of flight, and the throttle is set for takeoff speed.. Too many students start out with the opposite, and incorrect, idea. It's important that a student knows why an airplane flies, and what KEEPS it flying and performing the maneuvers the pilot wants it to.

    Yea, think of all those poor souls at sparten school in Kansas, nothing to see but red dirt :-) found your channel just by chance and reminded me of home....probably since I grew up 70 miles north of you (I live in the lower 48 now) your student is doing good she seems very comfortable. Maybe spend a little time with ICE theory, she doesn't seem like a big gear head:-) I think it's important to know the basics, at least to the extent you have control over in the cockpit and preflight, it might save you some day! My instructor always taught the mechanics of the lessons, but then tried to get me to understand and feel how the aircraft was moving through the air when I was coordinated vs. just chunking it through the air and how much better the aircraft behaved when you flew a centered ball. Your turns are more precise, you lose less altitude in stall recovery. The air is more "attached" to the aircraft and you can feel that in your core, in " the seat of your pants". Tell her to own the aircraft. ..every pilot retrims when you switch controls :-)

    Very nice demonstration! Love your videos! One question, at the end you mention that the 49 mph landing showed that you had something left when doing the stall exercise at 57. Wouldn’t this be due the ground effect at the landing?

    Excellent job!! How are you liking the vernier throttle? I have one and am not too sure about it. It seems sticky and sometimes the knurled knob completely unscrews. Just curious if you like yours!

    Great video! Thank you! I liked the focus to maintain level flight by aligning the cowling with the horizon. Very easy to see this in Alaska with mountains all around you as a point of reference. What about in Florida where everything is flat as a pancake? What is your point of reference?
