FLIGHT CHOPS DISCLAIMER:
I am a "weekend warrior" private pilot, I fly for fun with no intentions of going commercial. I have had my PPL for over 15 years, but still consider each flight a learning experience - I generally take detailed notes after each flight to remind myself what went well or what I could do to improve.... Having the GoPro cameras to record flights like this is invaluable. I find these self analysis videos very helpful in my constant quest to improve, and am happy to share. Feedback is invited; however, please keep it positive.
This is a great lesson for all of us MSFS pilots struggling to land everywhere in the Cub X and Shock Ultra.
I can’t even land a cub in infinite flight
Haha, same here, loving the XCub so far but a looot to learn!
@@auggith It's easier in a field than on a runway :D
How have you been doing with the Cub since? I just started my Cub journey and I bounce a lot during landings. I even had a a couple where I front flipped. Lol.
Simple Planes VR here. Yeah. I'm hunting landing spots on top of everything. Mock food & medical supply runs. Lots of oops off a mountaintop, but still great fun to practice STOLs.
Awesome! We need to get together to do some backcountry flying soon 🤘
I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again: a Flying Cowboys, Flightchops, JP, Matt Guthmiller, and Steveo1kinevo collaboration would be like watching the Avengers come together. If you all did a fly-by of La Vagabond I think heads might explode from awesome overdose.
Ryne Treatch ya except for Matt Guthmiiler
@@rynetreatch9558
Even gets La Vagabonde in there. You are the CZcams man my friend.
Excellent comment. Totally agree!! Just add Premier 1 Driver (P1D) for the jet set. :-)
I would also consider Sailing SV Delos in this collaboration.
Very impressed with that CFI. You can tell he knows a ton but still humble and calm. I flew with TAC Aero in their Waco earlier this year. Very impressive company. Sorry I missed you in Oregon, Steve! Hope to catch you next time.
I’ll be back!
Freaking amazing CFI. Damn. Great use of talking but never too much.
Clear, concise instruction.
Michael Carr for sure man. Can’t imagine another CFI doing any better. 🤙
I was thinking the same thing listening to this.
Fantastic Steve! We're looking forward to the next episode.
In love with this type of aircraft. 2 years ago, I had never heard of them! This is something I could take off and land right in my yard. I dream of that day. Might never happen, but I've got CZcams to live vicariously through.
Thanks for taking us along on this one Steve! Was a lot of fun to watch!
This guy's a very good instructor, imo. Excellent verbal skills, very clear and concise. And relaxed, chill demeanor helps as well I'm sure.
I flew with Brad as part of the check out for Tac Aero's EPIC ALASKA trip. He is truly one of the best......he is so calm, smart, experienced and as you can see, great communicator. Makes me want to fly over for a tune up!
That CFI is very calm and focused, lots of patients. Never raised his voice clear precise with his words. Unlike a couple of CFI’s I had when I started training. But after firing the first two I got a very good one kinda like this guy.
Wow brad! I am so proud of you. You did an amazing job instructing and you have some so far. I love you bro! ❤️
This is my goal, to be a bush pilot. I'm super happy that you're doing this series and look forward to the next episodes.
I'm not a pilot, but a mear aviation enthusiast. I find your videos highly informative and entertaining. I like the instructor, and I'm a huge fan on Cub Crafters so this video was just what I was looking for. Thanks for posting.
That was a pretty groovy video to watch. I love the ability of planes like that which,allow you to get in and out of tight places. A friend of mine went up to Alaska for about six months of bush flying. That was 40 years ago when they were building the pipeline. Last I heard, about 5 years ago, was that he is still thinking about coming back home. Someday.
Right in my back yard! So glad you got to see some good oregon scenery cant wait to see the trip!
Your TacAero CFI had a good demeanor and info delivery. Impressed. Of course he had an excellent student to make him look good, too. ; )
FlightChops, creating magic! Thanks Steve. One of your best.
Awesome stuff! Backcountry flying is really HOT right now and proper training is essential for maximum safety. Keep it up!
Great video. Tacaero has a great group of guys, they helped me out at High Sierra. Planning to come up and do some training.
What a cool plane! And an awesome instructor. Thanks to this channel I've started looking into getting a pilot's license of my own
A new flight chops video always gets me excited!!
That looks too fun! One of my favorite parts of flight training was shortfield takeoff/landing techniques, and I'd love to fly a Carbon Cub. Thanks for the video!
Give tail wheel a try in whatever type you can get access to!
very good video. also the instructor is doing a VERY GOOD job. absolutely calm at all times, i love him!
Great video. Really love the AoA alerter on the FX3. Very easy to understand and use to help manage your energy.
Thanks - and agreed, the AOA beepy thingy is very cool.
Took my First ever GA flight there a few years back! A great company!!
This guy's living a dream. Kicking around the world, flying different wings. Damn!
Thankyou for another great video. This carbon cub looks great! Safe and happy flying.
Great Video man! Thank you for it, I enjoyed every second of it, very very instructive! Keep up posting these vids!
Thanks FlightChops and TacAero. That's the best explanation I've seen about how the back country approaches are flown. Stinson guy.
That was excellent! Great teacher, a lot of good takeaways. Looking forward to the next episode.
Thanks yeah - it is fun to share this stuff - glad you found it of value
The Cub sure has come a very long way over the years. Very nice aircraft. Great video on stalls.
My heart would be beating out of my chest landing that. If you have a smartwatch or other heartrate tracker it would be neat to see you show how your body reacts to these situations. Great vid as always!
4 view camera at the same time was awesome! Thanks
Excellent video. Great placement of the camera's. Nice touch of the titling for showing your Airspeed. Keep up the great work.
16:43 minute mark discussion on air speed for actual approach, then on approach you change it down to the 1300 rpm, the instructor allows it, you learn and come back around and do what you actually discussed @ 16:43 mark. Damn good instructor working with a damn good pilot.
I like his instructing style. Great video.
Awesome, tailwheels and back country!
This video taught me everything I needed to know to fly this sucker in MSFS2020 lol. thanks for posting your stuff!
Great camera angles, superb flying. Steve, you were all over it !
Great instructor, I liked his style.
Neil Sheets agreed! So much fun to learn from a good instructor!
Brad is a total stud. One of TacAero best!
what style?
Hey! The first time I was up in a plane was near Hood River (closer to White Salmon really). It was a modified kit built Super Cub that my grandpa's friend had built. He took off downhill and landed uphill on a short strip and it was a crazy experience.
Nowadays I live in North Idaho (plenty of small strips around here) and the company I work at makes some parts for the Quest Kodiak.
Great video, and really interesting stuff to see.
That was great 👍. I really like the steep, controlled approach. Pretty nifty style and your instructor was great!
Great to still see the passion for the job from your instructor..very professional all the way , OUTSTANDING JOB we need more instructors like him ...love to get back into the air flight chop ..rusty pilot just move back to Toronto..what is the best way to do that ..need a mentor pilot. please let me know.
Man, those Carbon Cubs are nice planes. My first flight was in a 1973 PA-18 owned and flown by an aerial aviation company based out of Pitman, NJ back in 1982. That plane was bare bones compared to these CCs. But the design is classic and my #1 GA favorite. A real airplane that gives me a real sense of what flying is all about.
Such a nice looking plane! Thanks for sharing
Wonderful Video! While in Alaska I landed on a bunch of grass fields. I did not get to Fly or train in a STOL type aircraft. I had a ball because I flew in and out of Merrill field which I believe is the largest GA Airport in the world and Trained in Mountain Flying. The Air seemed pure and the scenery was so beautiful - I enjoyed every moment! The people I met were wonderful and very accommodating! I’m from Oklahoma and I was told I spoke with a New York Accent! 😎. Excellent Video keep up the great work!!
Amazing Scenery! Makes me want to start mountain flying.
Man, that guy is a great instructor!!
Neat! I now realize that this is the kind of thing I've been trying to do in our motor glider, i.e. the no-flare landing. Which probably isn't achievable in that sort of aircraft, which is normally deadsticked in anyway. I'll have to find me a cub to practice in instead :).
That instructor is awesome! Good flying Steve!
Great video. Your instructor has a really good manner aswell 👍
That was a freaking awesome vid Mr. C!
What a great video and brilliant instructor. Really enjoyed.
Flew in RAF Chipmunks in the seventies with the UKs Air Training Corps as a youth , great fun especially when the RAF instructors did some aerobatics in them with us , never did manage to afford to become a private pilot though unfortunately , still great memories though .
I really enjoyed this video, vicariously of course, but it was still instructive enough to make me want to look into this further.
You guys are the best. Way cool video. Wishing you the best in all your adventures.
Man, those Carbon Cubs are sweet!
I want to do more backcountry flying! This is awesome
Can’t wait to come up from Australia and do you bush training, looks like fun. Good skills guys. I’m impressed. Soon.....
Love the video! I have never flown in a taildragger before but would love to.
I would love to learn to fly one!
Great video thanks for putting this together very interesting .... I could watch this all day ..
Love this sort of feedback - because editing this stuff to make it digestible takes all day, for several days :)
Excellent instructor!
That's one good flight instructor!
Watching this series of you flying the CC makes me want one SOOOOOOO bad ! I fly a 1/4 scale RC J3 and I feel like I could walk strait into one of these and feel right at home. Just need another 200K. LOL
Awesome! I live 1 hour 30 minutes away from Hood River, Newberg Oregon. I plan on starting ground school in January then flight training after words.
lmao afterwards
Great video...Jeremy Young and crew at Tac Aero are a class act! I’d encourage anyone wanting to hone their backcountry flying skills to check out the courses they offer.
These guys are way more technical then I’ve ever been in the backcountry. But it true that a pilot needs to know his/her aircraft in every situation.
Was really cool to hear about the different approach profiles, really interesting!!
Cool yeah - it is cool that what was ~2 hours of training and briefings came together so clearly in a ~20 min video. :)
Good video. Excellent instruction!
Awesome Steve, I agree with Jason, go and fly in Utah with the cowboys and shoot a couple of videos too. Cheers from Aussie.
Excellent video
Excellent video!!!
Great video. Perfectly edited.
Holy shit that instructor is incredible! Clear, concise, positive, exacting in necessary detail. Amazing!
Brilliant instructor. First rate. Very interesting video.
Good instruction, young man
I live through you.
Thanks for sharing
Awesome video with great scenery
Great instructor! Very on point and relaxed :)
Really well done (both video and flying)
Loved the video! FYI my son works for Cubcrafters and I use to have chips!!! Keep up the great content!
Awesome mate.
Love the color of the plane!
Long time lurker and now a subscriber (so I can see you ride with the flying cowboys :) )
Nice work... both you guys! Sharp.
This is an old video, but with your new ones you're talking about distracted flying. You totally had a moment where that happened in this video! It wasn't dangerous because you were high, but in slow flight you and you're CFI were distracted with the trim problem. Good learning moment.
It was groovy seeing this type flying!
Nice plane. You won't need much time to get comfortable. Thanks for sharing.
Great instructor. A rare and highly capable breed
Great instructor, really good!
Excellent Lessons! Very Nice 👍Video!
Awesome video! Excellent CFI!
... and I want that plane...
What a cool video, amazing instructor and what a dream plane. Imagine this thing with a 4 blade 800shp turboprop.
Love these type of videos: it makes me want to go fly! Great job and what a fun plane, chill instructor!
Too cool! I think I saw my grandparent's place. The burger joint at the end of the runway is killer.
LOL, when you fly a Carbon Cub, it's a $200 burger. ;-)
Beautiful plane the lines on that thing are amazing
Excellent instruction, excellent video!
Love tail wheel flying.!
I love landing in hood river but during the summer the winds and DA can cause some interesting challenges especially when taking off to the east
This is my dream, Unfortunately getting a PPL in Singapore is super expensive. Hopefully one day.. Great Video, Thanks.
That is great communication from both teacher and student.
