  • We don't get to fly IFR / IMC Often but when we do I love it and I love sharing this RAINY IFR FLIGHT with you.
    Flying IFR / IMC is a must in Kentucky. Without an instrument rating it's impossible to get out and go. This IFR flight we experience SOLID IMC coming back from Asheville, NC. When we start the approach a light rain cell develops over a short final at the airport. We had not convective activity and winds were light. Popping out of the clouds on an IFR landing and seeing the runway directly in front of you is a great feeling!
    Here is our flight.
    *I am NOT an instructor / CFI and I make lots of mistakes. This is not flight training. This is my experience.*

    Sean, thanks for the ride along! I think IFR is a great way to keep proficient! I like it a lot!
    & it can be very rewarding! Don/NE Ohio :-)

      Thanks Don. I appreciate it. Yes I agree. It's just something I do nearly every flight. Hope you are doing well!

    Congratulations to you both! That mountainous area looked incredible!

      Raul - it was beautiful. If you have never done Appalachian mountain flying - it's awesome.

    Happy anniversary, excellent content on sids. Like that you stayed focussed, even with the auto pilot engaged. Some people trust the auto pilot too much, it must always be monitored when active. Nice approach in moderate rain, well handled. Blue skies.

      I have had that thing fail on me before and I never trust it fully. Maybe some day. Thanks so much.

    Just curious... how are the subtitles populated? Is it an app or some sort of CZcams software?

    • @TheFirePilot
      @TheFirePilot  Před 2 lety +2

      CZcams picks up on what it thinks I’m saying after about 12-24 hours after upload. Then I just turn them on. I’m supposed to go through and edit and sync correctly buuuuttt

    What camera's do you have? I have the Hero 9 and it gets super hot and shuts off after 10 minutes in the cockpit. How do you have your wing camera mounted? I'm afraid to use suction cup since I can cruise above the limit of the suction cup. I have a T310Q. Thanks for info!

    • @TheFirePilot
      @TheFirePilot  Před 2 lety

      I have a go pro 8 which is likely the highest I will go. The 7s are rock solid. But the 8s are touchy. 9 and 10 are even worse. First turn off everything. All WIFI GPS. Only record in 1080P. No 2.7, or 4K. I also have a battery pack connected via usb cable. I leave the battery door open for air cooling. All of this and it still shuts down when I’m direct sunlight.

    • @TheFirePilot
      @TheFirePilot  Před 2 lety

      On the wing - I won’t be doing that particular angle any more. Not really a good idea. All of our mounts are from flightflix.net

      About 6'1''. I don't have much head room. That's the rough part.
