Inspection so clear and professional
Inspection is done professionally!!!
Nice! The Archer has definitely come a long way! 😀
Great inspection and nice filming and editing ! Thanks
Thank you Liz. Very informative for someone whose finally realizing their dream. I’ve been waiting many years to fly an archer. I’ll probably forget but I gotta write down a memo to email you when I’m not afraid to solo after 50 hrs. My instructor Krystene is awesome so the fact that I’m in good hands help. And with that, goodnight good day and a Truman show good morning CZcams community 😊 -mamba out
Also use a flashlight and check for separation or oil leakage around the head of each cylinder.
Thanks for sharing the video.
Outstanding
That Piper looks great 👍🏻
Great video.
Great video keep up the good work Thrust Flight
Thanks, will do!
liz is a boss we love her
😂😂😂 thanks L your amazing.
While you checking the stall warning (aka "summoning the stall lady") - it's also a good opportunity to feel the pitot mast to make sure it's warm and heat is actually working :-)
Good point!
"Summoning the stall lady," is it really called that? Surprised they don't use the military term for that voice.

@@archerpiperii2690 lol, I wish she was like Bitchin’ Betty, but all she can say is “Stall, Stall, Stall”
Yep! I do that each time I inspect the piper archer I’m training with.
What a treat! This showed me some details I did not previously know. I have a Cherokee 140 and have to uncover one side of the engine to check it. That allows me to eyeball hoses, cables, etc. Is this NOT part of the preflight for the Archer? Just wondering. Thanks!
Would like to see you do a review of the DLX diesel.
She missed two items…verify that when moving the alerion that the yoke moves in the right direction…..and inspection of the fuel tank vent ( for mud dauber or other insect) blockage
Great video ty! I’m getting my next rating in this plane and wanted a heads up on the preflight! Very very detailed! So with piper, you don’t dip the fuel tank? It’s just a visual inspection…. No fuel dips stick? Thanks and be safe
I can speak for the operations at my school, we don't dip because we're always full so we visually inspect that we're full and confirm the same with the fuel quantity indications. At first I was skeptical because I came from flying a 172 with analog fuel gauges so we dipped the tanks to get an accurate reading of fuel.
Hi LIz. Some Piper Archers have a ribbon that says check before flight, hanging from under the wings. Is that where you check for fuel contamination from water?
Do you ever spill any fuel on your hands while taking samples? Especially the nose sump?
Don’t you have to dump the nose 2 times and change the fuel selector?
Everyone seems to see a great aircraft with awesome glass panel, in picture-perfect condition. All I see is tens of thousands of dollars a student doesn't have that training in this airplane will cost them. One could have easily gotten their private in a old shabby Cessna 150 for fraction of the price.
A sad statement, but true... These fancy new electronics cost way more than they should. But, you can barely fly IFR anymore without them.
... the girls have the POH and weight and balance sheet ... nice. So, the TX ... has the most of the switches at the right position, above ... very helpful. The only mistery is - are the leg brakes above the rudders, as with the Archer 3 edition, and how sensitive :).
In airplane repo, they jump in the airplanes and take off. 😂😂😂
The preflight check is done in the air😂
Is someone prego?
Are you talking about the passenger? 😉
@@ThrustFlight Congratulations 👏!
@@ThrustFlight been noticing this too :) it's been fun to follow Thrust Flight and see Liz taking charge, now this adds to it.
If not, you get slapped, eat crow, and you'll never live it down lol.
@@ThrustFlight Congratulations! I hope your new pax doesn't move the CG out of limits. ;)

Basically a fine training aircraft. But why in the hell is any aircraft manufacturer in 2024 selling an airplane with only one damn door and an antiquated flap bar?
Come on Piper!
