- Roy Kessell Recurrent Training Cessna 421C 2017 (Full Video)
John Harrison giving Roy Kessell his recurrent training in a Golden Eagle 421C. Full Video. Brake Failure on takeoff... Abort... Go! Steep turns, slow flight, power-off stall, Power-on stall, Normal ILS 32R at KOMA, Single Engine ILS 32R with no flap landing at KOMA, GPS approach into KMLE runway 12 Circle to land 31.
im loving these mature pilots . hats off to seasoned airmen . God bless them .
Nice work Roy. Finally got to see you sweating in the right seat instead of me, although you made it look easy. Can still hear you saying “where you going...”. Never forget black box martha.
Black Box Martha! I actually had to call Roy on that! Very interesting!!! I read your comment to him and it gave him a good laugh.
@@johnnycfi thank you. I must have meant left seat but in any case I hope he is still flying. We used to have a 421 but professionally flown, it can be a handful but what a great ride. That’s a solid ride.
My very first job flying floats in northern Canada my boss drilled into me his memorized pre-take check; "trim, mixture, pitch, flap, fuel, switches, gauges, seats, doors". These items recited over and over, every take off, often a dozen times in a day, soon became etched in my mind like learning words to a song. They pretty much cover all the things that might kill you and can even quickly be done a second time in the event of a disruption or just to be sure.
Nice video ! great plane , i love it . suscribed !!
Excellent video! I love the C421! Would love to learn to fly one some day in the near future! I like your demeanor as an Instructor. Cudos to you, sir!
Thanks for the wonderful compliment David. The 421 is a pretty capable airplane and I enjoyed flying it. A lot of people and operators still fly it so I imagine you one day you could wind up in one. Just remember.... if you take care of your engines the engines will take care of you. Cheers!!!
John, you are most welcome! I've been a multi-engine commercial pilot for a few now. I haven't flown in a few years since our twins were born. Videos like these help keep me motivated! Looking forward to seeing more of your videos in the near future! Really would like to get my love for aviation back in full swing. Are you on the East coast? I remember a Miller airfield either in N.J.

Good job, guys. Both of you. ;)
I did my first 500 hours on a C421 Golden Eagle, flying in europe. Great plane. For the last 18 years I had the privilege of flying the Boeing 747-8. Ten years to go. And then 421, again? Who knows.
Keep the blue side up.
Thank's for the video.

Renato Stiefenhofer Did you mean the 747-400? The 747-8 has only been on line since 2011 or so.
The "Queen of the Sky" is almost gone with the exception of cargo use.
@@stevebond727200 Yes, you are right. I am flying the 747-400 and since 2014 both, the 747-400 and the 747-8.
I am working for Korean Air and we have ten Boeing 747-8 intercontinental (passenger) plus seven 747-8 freighters. And we still operate a handful of 747-400, passenger and freighter versions.
Have a nice day.
R.
Renato Stiefenhofer you must be living your dream!
That model is so beautiful. I think UPS saved the assembly line for the dash eight from what I understand.
Perhaps you've seen the video, but I think it was a CARGOLUX Dash 8 on a delivery flight that executed a wing wave on departure. Was awesome!
Take care!
I'm retired now . Flew B 777 , A 320 , B 747 , B 767 , DC 8 71 , B 707 , B 727 , CE 550 , B 90 , B 99A , Twin Otter 300 /100 , C 337 ( 6K hrs fish spotting at night ) , A - 37 Dragonfly , DH 115 Vampire, T 37 , T 34 , L 13 Blanik.
My Dream if my stocks work OK is to own and fly a 421C .
It was like watching the Space Shuttle when I was 25 flying a C 337 .
What I enjoyed most were the two T-38 references/stories to which John did not bite 😂. I’m with ya Roy- “below 240, gear clear Sir”. 45 degree bank in the final turn with your aim point in the dirt 1/4 mile before the threshold- no problem 🙃. I will miss the white rocket (Talon to you coffee table book readers) when the T-X replaces it 😕.
I was crying inside about the mixture on that takeoff
SleepyHorses good catch! We both missed it that day.
Yep saw that too! Also I can't believe the number of pilots that don't know how to do run ups on airplanes with feathering propellers!! The proper procedure is to pull the prop lever back to the detent.. observed that there is no change in RPM,... then pull the prop lever to the feather position. If your props are changing RPM or feathering before the detent then they are no adjusted correctly. There is also no reason to do each prop three times. If it works the first time, it will work subsequently.
@@eagle2019 Cycling the prop moves oil back and forth through the propeller hub. Good to do a few times on cold mornings.
@@sleepyhorses6100 Old Wives Tale! Once is enough. Doing it more puts undo stress on all the components.
Nice video! - That 0-trust power setting simulation you use is 17Map/1700?
That lightly loaded, you should go gear-up after positive-rate instead of when there is no more usable runway, because if you have an engine failure you will have the climb performance available on the remaining engine to safely continue the climb, and bring the gear up sooner just gives you more altitude buffer sooner.
GTSIO-520 Engines? Only piston engines running RPM's that low. Great video.
Mixture back for T.O.?I worked at Yingling Aircraft in Wichita for over 20 yrs.on these things.Sure miss setting up the engines and flying in them.421 is a nice piston twin!! Thanks for posting this!
JetTech Don good catch on the Mixture. The 421 was an awesome airplane. I am not a big fan of those engines but they got the job done.
Not the most fun plane to be in on take off when heavy.Those GTSIO's were something else.The very last run of C models with the trailing link gear had a different fuel set-up for starting,but still the same GTSIO.I know we could not run them for long doing engine set-ups,as the oil temp would go too high rather quickly.Sure loved the 425 and the 441,which is what I spent most of my time at Yingling working on.Miss all the 400 series Cessnas,but moved to Bombardier/Learjet Service Center working all the Challenger and Globals and sure like working on them better as they are much easier on the body for a mech.Just retired after 40 yrs of working as an A&P here in ICT!
This was an awesome video, thanks for sharing, the C421 is a complex machine! What was the issue at 2:37 with riding the brakes to keep the engines from "chattering"?
pdutube - thanks for commenting. The 421 has geared engines and because of that anything lower than 900 RPM will result in the gears chattering resulting in excessive wear or damage. This occurs at low RPM'S without sufficient load on the propeller. Think of it as the prop trying to drive the engine instead of the engine driving the prop. thanks for watching.
Thanks for explaining that, it makes sense. Those GTSIO520s are expensive animals! Keep the videos coming!
Very good video I had sympathy anxiety flash backs with Roy. Well done guys!
What did you keep looking at your sunglasses?
Mixture, shot through in steep turns, forgot to call approach, VFR not looking out the window, slow actions, and doing just fine ???? I don't think so.
I’m impressed you noted each and every mistake! very impressive. I sure wish I had your experience!
@@johnnycfi Thanks for your, maybe sarcasctic, response. It's not a matter of experience however, but really basic stuff for any low time pilot.
It’s training! Relax Paulus, 34 year airline pilot, 787 Captain/APD/LCA, and over 30 years instructing in everything from Cessna 152’s, to Airbus and Boeing 787’s. So many variables, how often do you fly, are you safe, are you gaining proficiency during the training event, etc. I would love to give you a checkride and see how perfect you are sir!
Haha, would love to, don 't live in USA anymore. If it's training why didn't you correct him?
Did I shut of the autopilot ? 1 notch of flaps on approach ? Feather , no hurry ? I can't watch this. OK, it's training, not a checkride I hope.
For Gods sake, the guys hands are trembling -
Little old aand very shaket Fail him !!!!

I retired at 65 and was as sharp as when I was a Lieutenant ...
