- If you are new to flying or maybe have not been in a long time, here's an uncut, full-length flight from start up to shut down. I'll fly over to a local towered airport and see if I can find my son on a solo flight in the pattern.
Here is my list of recommended things to purchase if you are just getting started flying. Regardless of where you learn to fly, it is good to have these on hand. The FAA manuals can be downloaded for free but I still prefer to have a printed copy. You can purchase from Amazon here:
AIRPLANE FLYING HANDBOOK amzn.to/3WmsIfi
PILOTS HANDBOOK OF AERONAUTICAL KNOWLEDGE amzn.to/37XxsE2
FAR/AIM amzn.to/3vkXsln
PILOT LOGBOOK I recommend if just getting started: amzn.to/3zOxfxi
and also download pdf versions for free from the FAA here:

David is lucky to have a father like you.
Thank you for watching sir, we appreciate you.
Your a good father, that's so nice to see today. Your proud of your son, like a father should be. And your son should be proud of you. You earned it. I'm a student pilot. Living the dream. Thank for your videos. They help for sure.
Thank you for the kind words, and thank you for watching!
Great videos, hope to see many more.
Thanks for watching!
Awesome content. Keep up the great work!
Thanks for watching!
Great video. I just passed my flight review after an 18 year hiatus, glad to be flying again
Welcome back! Thanks for watching.
Love it !
Thanks for watching!
I checked your channel out whenever you said you were from N Texas on the OshKosh landing. I grew up in Shady Shores and had a best friend in Hidden Valley. It’s cool to watch videos of people flying in your area!
That’s awesome man, aviation is certainly a small world! You rarely meet someone that doesn’t know ‘someone’ you know as well, ha. Thanks for watching!
An awesome 172 flight training video.
Thanks for watching Dad! We need to make one of you flying with me now.
@@FreedomFlight1 Yes, I hope we are flying together again soon 👍
man iv watched just about all your vids they r great. i have a discovery flight booked for tomorrow. little nervous but im excited thanks for these vids i look forward to watching more
Awesome, thanks for watching. I’m excited for you, hope your discovery flight hooks you like it did me!
Your welcome man! And I just got back to my home from my first flight it was amazing and I can nit wait to do it again. I was hella nervous at first but then I started to relax and find peace. Simply in awe
I just started flight training, I'm at about 8.5 hours. Found this video because I've been having some issues with power off stalls and landings. So I was looking up videos on power off stalls, landing and touch and go's.
I enjoyed the video and I'm hoping one day I can make it look as easy as you did lol.
Also, I was in the Army, 11B Infantry, 10th Mountain Division, so your son and I have a little in common.
Hi Kyle, thanks for watching. I’m confident you’ll get good at those stalls and landings. The more you do them the better you will get. If you continue to have trouble though, consider asking for another instructor for a lesson or two. Sometimes just hearing something explained by a different CFI can help. I wish you the best!
I think it's awesome you have your own hanger and air strip where you live. What a dream that would be. Are you an A&P as well? I am and have always loved aviator. Great vedio. Loved it.
I am not yet, but am working on it! Thanks for watching our video Donnie.
Another great flight video, brought back memories, when I was taking lessons back in 1968. I ran out of money, but after I did get to solo. Would love to see some videos of you practicing some power on/off stalls. How do you get the shots off the wing tip and overhead?
Thanks for watching Jim. I have an Insta360 cam and a few GoPros to get the various perspectives.
I just bought my first 1965 172F. Love your color scheme. I’m adding a 750 and GI275. What are your thoughts??? Love the content …. Btw- as a new pilot, I’ve done a short XC solo but still have that pit in my stomach and don’t really have fun up there. Always worried about stuff. Is this normal????
I love the GTN 750, am hopeful I can also add a few GI275's at some point, may have to settle for G5s though. Hopefully the more you fly, the more comfortable you will get!
I wish i can be on the flight with you 😔😔😔😔😔. Can you invite me some days? I love the video and the intro is hilarious.
Thanks for watching, there's more in the works, so hopefully you ride along (virtually!) again soon.
@@FreedomFlight1 I will surely. How can someone contact you please?

When do you start counting your hours for flight time? While you are in the air or at the runway?
Good question Chris, you can start logging your hours from the time the engine starts and until it stops, so it does include taxi time. Interestingly enough, many military pilots I believe only count the time airborne. Thanks for watching.
@@FreedomFlight1 Thank you for this information!
Can you fly a smaller jet aircraft?
Hi Lucian, I do actually fly jets for a living but at an airline. I wish I had a “small jet” here to film in because I certainly would if so!
It would be nice if you can do a video about what it would take to learn to fly one of these ( maybe the Cirrus sf50 vision )
