- You struggling with your landings? We get it. Your approach needs to be right, your speed needs to be correct, and everything needs to line up before touch down. Thankfully landing doesn't have to be hard. Join Jason as he walks you through his process for mastering landings and make your next touch down, a touchdown!
I'm a student pilot with 39 hours. Your tip about the marker on the window for the aiming point made things click for me on landings. I didn't even have to put an actual mark on the window--just the concept and 3 practice landings with my instructor brought me from being super nervous about passing the checkride short field landing to knowing that I'll pass unless something crazy happens. Thanks!!
Thanks for the feedback Bryan! The concept of aim point is invaluable for flying a stable approach. Glad it was a helpful tip for you!
Thank god I find this Chanel at the same time of my pilot career
Haven't started training yet but I would say, your videos are awesome and make total sense. I know this will definitely give me a leg up and speed the process for me. Can't wait to start. Thanks Jason!.
As always on this channel: a perfect explanation of what really matters, thanks Jason!
Glad you liked it!
Had my boss and two customers in our Cherokee Six. Literally rolled the tires on, no bump, no thump...rolled them on! Best landing ever. Thanks low wing ground effect.
Great investment in production next level stuff! MzeroA got me through my PP check ride and moving on to Instrument 💥
Thanks Kyle! Glad to be a part of your Aviation journey. Keep us posted with your progress!
Fantastic landing mastery video Jason. Best you’ve produced. Fundamentals and Mastery principles never get old; they get more helpful.
Thank you very much for the feedback Tim! We agree, continuous improvement is key! Whether that be revisiting the fundamentals, or mastering techniques.
Glad to have found your videos. Excellent learning / explaining material
Ordered! Thank you for doing these videos and keeping us learning! :) Believe it or not, you were one of the main factors for me starting my pilot journey. You helped me get my 107 and there was a video where you said something along the lines of "if you can pass this written test, seriously consider becoming a pilot, since they're pretty close". That got me thinking! Well.. after a discovery flight, I was hooked. I started my journey a year ago and I'm close to my checkride. I've been watching your videos and applying what you teach along with my CFI's instruction. Loving this experience!
Hey there! That’s so awesome to hear! Keep up the great work!
Great tips Jason! I really enjoyed it from down under!
I’m a student pilot and was struggling with my landings with “flares” and how to do them correctly. Transitioning is a great why of describing it and that I need to look towards the end of the runway. Awesome tips thanks!
Glad we could help! Thanks for watching, Jessie!
I wanted to let you know that I have used your “a perfect landing starts with a perfect traffic pattern” as an analogy for several other things in both my work and life. Each time, especially for work, it brings a smile and a nod of understanding from folks. And these aren’t aviation people. I have to think there is still the cool factor for using aviation references. Lol
As always thank you for the content and thank you for helping us all to be better pilots. One of these days I will make a trip to Ocala and do a “discovery flight” with you.
Bro... I've watched a lot of your videos and the first 30 seconds of this video... Epic! Loved the start.
Awesome, thank you!
Super great video!!! Reminded me once more what my instructor taught me while I was mastering my landings!!! Great refresher ..thank you!🤩👍
Great to hear!
Great series! I built sims for the DoD for decades, now I have my own sim in retirement, finally learning how to actually fly! Thanks for your instruction...
Awesome to hear you’re starting to learn how to fly! Enjoy every moment of it, thanks for watching!
So well done and soooo very helpful. Huge thanks Jason!
Very welcome!
My new favorite phrase when flying and talking to people about landing is "Airspeed is king" almost on every landing I find myself saying it to myself. It has helped me IMMENSELY on my landings! You're the best Jason ! And same goes out to the MzeroA Team!
Love that! Thanks for watching, John!
Just what I needed. Excellent explanation. Thank you Jason
Thanks for tuning Gabriel! Glad you enjoyed the video.
Jason thanks for this. I called a meeting this morning before my CFI and I flew today. We went over the numbers and timing. Three loops around today were much better than before.
Great job! Glad they are getting better!
Nicely done Jason. I look forward to the rest of this series. Lead on my friend, lead on.
Thanks for the feedback T!
thank you so much jason that was really helpful tips, something that i learned out of landing from you today is, how to get that confidence when talking on communication.
Your videos are perfect. Thank you!
You are very welcome Jessie! Thanks for tuning in.
Great video Jason! I am going in pretty soon to begin my flight lessons, and these notes are great for me to keep in mind.
Thats amazing! Have a great first flight lesson!
Jason, I am a pilot......longing...last flight 1990......I am back and headed towards my Instrument Cert and Commercial.....love your program and will be enrolling to further my ambitions....now, just a Piper Twin, PA 34 & Florida would complete my life...MLB
Great video. Thanks for sharing. Look forward to more videos.
More to come! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the tips.
Your videos are really really good.
Thanks Jason, this is timely because lately I have felt my quality of landing was degrading. Keep up the good work.
You are very welcome Doug! We'll keep the putting out our best work :) Happy landings!
Jason, thank you for your videos! doing my PPL and T&G have been giving me the most problems. Appreciate your guidance and wish I could have you as my CFI
Thanks for the feedback!! Glad you find the video helpful.
aweason explanation, totaly profesional and quikly
I came back to watch this again. I had a rough day with pattern work. I’d say half my issues was the winds, strong crosswind variable winds; however, half was ineffective use of rudder, getting behind the aircraft and managing my airspeed and altitude. Talk about a day of work.
Keep on practicing and you'll master those patterns and landings! If you need any help please reach out to us at support@mzeroa.com! Thanks for watching, Joshua!
Great video! Can't wait for the book!
Hope you enjoy it!
Thanks Jason great lesson!
Glad you liked it!
Great videos I’m going to start my flight school on 1st of January 2022 . Thanks for all the info.
Good luck, Oscar!
Good video as I have been struggling with landings. I'll be talking to my CFI further about this.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
So much good stuff here you'd think it was Christmas morning!
Glad you like the content!
This is cool Jason, did your remote pilot course and passed, now watching these it looks both complicated and challenging and fun. Maybe I can start towards real pilot training soon. And it's impressive that you're doing both teaching and flying at the same time. Maybe it's The Power of The Two Watches. I bet that's it. :)
Thats awesome on passing your Part 107 test.
Jason, thanks for the details about "proper" landing techniques that did not sink in during my instruction.
You are welcome Bruce! Glad you found some of our concepts valuable.
one peice of advace that i learned is pick your aiming point when your abeam your touchdown point. then pitch and trim for speed and keep that aiming point in sight and use power to keep it right on a spot on the windshield. DONT land the plane you feel it sink pull back a little feel it sink pull back
The perfect pattern (including sight pictures) leads to you nailing your air speeds and muscle memory; not to mention that a perfect pattern requires you to be thinking ahead of the airplane and being aware, like compensating for wind, just like having a “sterile cockpit” during shooting approaches and landing is important.
Wise words Shawn! Sight pictures and outside visual references are a valuable tool to fly consistent patterns.
Excellent stuff. I like to use timing on the Downwind: once I reach the end of the runway, I count 15 seconds before turning base (assuming winds less than 5kts). I fly a 172, and this timing puts me in the correct spot to turn base every time!
Thanks for sharing Mark! That is definitely a useful technique. Great you are considering wind as well! I have subtracted 1/2 the tailwind component from downwind timing (starting abeam landing rwy threshold) to compensate for the winds before as well. Tends to work well.
@@MzeroAFlightTraining Yes indeed. I will divide by 3. e.g. If I have a 15kt Tailwind on the Downwind leg I divide by 3, which gives me 5. I then take 5 seconds from my original 15 seconds to turn Base. So, I turn Base after 10 seconds. It works. As Jason mentioned, we are not always at our home airport and so landmarks don't always work.
I learned to look ahead in motorcycle class not in front of you. It Works
Sounds like a positive transfer of learning! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you
Great educational video on landing
Thanks for watching, Sanjeeb! Glad we could help!
I enjoy all your videos. Jerry
Glad you enjoy them! Thanks for watching, Jerry!
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's so nice that your channel has so much value but so little ads, unlike other channels out there. Honestly, I avoid those ad filled videos like the devil avoids the cross. I have to ask though, why are you so kind? 😊
I appreciate that! Thanks for tuning in!
After watching this (high quality) training video, something's stirred?
Perhaps life got in the way and the dream of flying became just that.
Maybe, just maybe it's time to take 'that' introductory flight?
Thank you for giving the dream a little prod = )
Thanks for watching!
I really liked the split screen views!
Glad you enjoyed it, Amy! Thanks for watching!
Thank you.
Glad we could help! Thanks for watching, Sam!
Thank you for the 411
Are you at a flight school in Florida. You are a great trainer. You explain everything in details.
Hello Oscar! At this time we are an online only ground school, but if you need help finding a flight school we can try to make some recommendations! Please reach out to us at support@mzeroa.com! Fly safe!
Great timing with this video. My issue is in the transition to slow flight down the runway I think. I am looking to close and touching down with to much speed. I am also afraid to pull back and on the yoke and hear that stall horn.
Hi Luke! Thanks for your comment. It will definitely take practice to master your landings. Keep on practicing with your CFI and if you need any help please reach out to us at support@mzeroa.com. Fly safe!
Great video. I have 2 airports I land at occasionally that have nonstandard TPA (800 feet and 1250 feet). I find myself having to make several corrections on final especially with the 800 feet where I always feel low. Any tips for nonstandard traffic patterns (other than practice of course)?
To get use to nonstandard traffic patterns is to practice it but when you are practicing it really focus on that new site picture of turning base and turning final. That site picture is what will keep you have consistent patterns at those airports.
Thanks for this wonderful demonstration on circuits and landings. Great advice on circuit stability.
My problem is how much to descend before turning final and what ‘hold it there’, ‘hold it there’ means during the ‘flare’. One instructor says to hold the yoke in a fixed position the other says hold the nose there. I never get a straight answer, and no video explains it.
How do I judge finals height if runways look different.
Could you please help with these. Thanks.
Hi Sam! That definitely can be frustrating! Please reach out to us at support@mzeroa.com with your questions and we can have a CFI help you! Thanks for watching!
Biggest struggle to initiate/continue descend while adding flaps. Those pushing forward is never enough to make it smooth.
I agree, it is a challenge counteracting the added lift from lowering flaps in a descent. It helps to anticipate the pitch up moment when you add flaps, and pitch down to the attitude you want. Then trim to relieve control pressure.
Your video quality is so great. What camera and settings do you use? I've gone from a Garmin VIRB to a GoPro Hero Black9, but it doesn't come close!
Thanks for watching! For questions regarding this topic please reach out to our support team at support@mzeroa.com.
If you’re on an ILS do you prefer to use Power for altitude or pitch for altitude? My thought is you keep the air speed so that your controls are more effective because it’s going to be turbulent if you’re coming down through a storm. I watched a video about how to catch the glideslope and he was saying that to Use power to manage air speed and keep your pitch so that you’ve got the 500 ft./min. decent in order to capture the glideslope. It would make sense to have higher air speed in rough conditions I would think, for the sake of being able to initiate a go around climb more effectively, if necessary. Also the higher speed would make it easier to maneuver in High-winds I would think and avoid a stall when you’re in the clouds and/or turning. I know air speed at landing can be a problem but you might use a no flap landing.
Hi Shawn! Typically you want to use pitch for your airspeed and power for your altitude. So if you feel yourself sinking, add some power. And you are right, when it is gusty you may want to try a reduced flap landing with a higher approach speed. Thanks for watching!
Would love to see a small screen (camera view) of the glass panel or gauges. It would help to see the results of what you are doing and talking about displayed on your instruments without loosing other views.
Thanks for tuning in, great idea!
I have already talked to my CFI about Flare
Thanks for watching!
for a Cessna 172 180hp would you still use the same speeds ? 90 downwind, 80 base, 70-65 on final ?
By chance was your early aviation mentor Joel, Mr. Weiner?
Jason, will your book be available on audible? Thanks for education!
Hi Mike, thanks for reaching out! Aviation Mastery is not currently on Audible. However, all of Jason's "Pass your Checkride" series Private, Instrument, and Commercial are on there. Aviation Mastery can be preordered here mzeroa.lpages.co/aviationmasterypreorder/
@@MzeroAFlightTraining Ordered! Thank you so much for all that your great organization does!
Where's the link to ep; 1?
This is just a stand alone video. We would be happy to send you the link to another video.
Easy plane to fly 172 very forgiving flown lots of rc planes but fly 172 on x plane or an L5 very hard to keep tail wheel tracking straight
Why are you doing a right pattern? Is there hazards or are you on a Parallel runway? Just asking cuz I thought most if not all patterns go left....
Hi Scott! You're right, most patterns are indeed left traffic. However, at certain airports they require a right pattern due to airspace, obstacles, etc. In this video, Jason is conducting his pattern at Ocala International Airport (OCF) which is a controlled airport. In a controlled (also called "towered") airport, tower will tell you what pattern to fly. Sometimes they need you to fly a right traffic pattern due to traffic or other concerns. If you have any other questions please reach out to our team at support@mzeroa.com. Thanks for watching!
Can't you fix excess altitude with a slip on final? Also, flare doesn't have to be a huge pull up. A slight pull up can still be referred to as a flare, without ballooning it
At the student pilot level? That might be a bit too advanced/risky for a novice. I think the idea is to perfect the standard landing first and then go for more advanced tasks later.
@@christophermichaelson9050 I'm not a pilot yet myself, but my understanding is that students are expected to demonstrate a slip to landing on a private pilot checkride. Normally, I agree it's better to fly the pattern well and not have to worry about it, but being able to fix a bad pattern is also important
Hi! Yes a forward slip can be a good way to lose altitude on final as long as you can still have a stable transition to landing. If you have any other questions please reach out to us at support@mzeroa.com. Thanks!
So I’m just starting the video and I plan to watch the entire thing. Jason is very knowledgeable and a good teacher. But I’m hung up on something... why is Jason wearing two watches???
Enjoy this video explaining the two watches! fb.watch/4Jnc0wYKdY/
@@MzeroAFlightTraining too funny! Thank you!
part of me thinks that a really good pilot should be able to land an airplane from most any where. It could be because I watched too much aerobarics and those airplanes are not as floaty as the cessna high wings.
YOU CRACKED YOUR DOOR OPEN?
Normal when taxiing in warm weather.
Hi Tom! Yes it is common to leave the door cracked open in small training aircraft during warm temperatures to get some more airflow into the cabin. It is verified closed and secured prior to taking off. Thanks for watching!
First
Thanks for watching!
Need to go to an uncontrolled airport to get rid of the annoying ATC chatter.
Then you get the annoying pilot chatter
I can see merit in both comments, I feel the communication with the tower is beneficial enhances the content especially for those who may not operate out of a controlled field often.
Pretty sure if you find ATC annoying, you have no business flying.
I enjoy it as it helps learn what to expect when I actually will be flying into controlled airport.
Thanks for watching!
