  • One of the most challenging, but rewarding tasks in the flight training process is learning to land. This video shows the basic procedure for landing a Cessna 172 Skyhawk, with exciting footage shot from all around and inside the aircraft during a normal landing.
    This is a small segment from Sporty's Pilot Shop's 14 Hour Complete Flight Training Video Course. For more information, or to order, visit www.sportys.com....

    Absolurely brilliant explanation. I'm not a pilot yet, but can feel myself being sucked into the fascination :-) . this demystifies a lot of things, inspires and gets me excited about learning more - and trying it out someday! thank you so much! ( by the way, the more I learn about flying, the more respect I have for commercial pilots and pilots of all kinds and how much they have to be on top of and on the ball. especially airline pilots who have sometimes 150 + lives in their hands. great respect!

      Absolutely I love the way this explanation goes around though I too not being a pilot but I used to play X plane simulator a lot with great pleasure that I wanted to know a perfect feeling of landing and learning about with utmost enthusiastic way.. thanks for this great instruction..

    During my flying training I was concerned that the stall warning occured each time I touched down. My FI said that was good, stalling on the runway is a perfect landing (except on an aircraft carrier!)

    • @gordondean2110
      @gordondean2110 Před 7 lety +7

      Your CFI is correct. The slowest the A/C can fly is its stall speed. Since the forces that cause the A/C to swerve (on the runway) are proportional to the square of the airspeed, you can see that having the slowest possible airspeed at touch down reduces these adverse forces by a significant amount.
      Some will say to use a higher approach speed in a cross wind. No, just put in sufficient wing down and rudder to compensate for the X-wind component and land with normal A/S. In VERY gusty wind add maybe 5 knots to your normal approach speed.

    One of the better 'how-to-land' videos I've seen [former instructor, 5,500 Hrs]. It didn't labor 'fly-by-numbers' but did give sensible advice on accurate nose attitudes and interpreting the runway aspect. I did however cringe at the adverse aileron yaw, which really should have been nailed on the 'primary and secondary effects of controls' lesson.

    EXCELLENT produced Vid...! I use to explain to my students (back in the mid '70's at KFAY) the reason we practiced "turns around a point" is to take each quarter of the turn and super-impose THAT quarter to the traffic pattern - upwind to crosswind, crosswind to downwind, downwind to base, and base-to-final approach and we teach and incorporate climbing and descending turns for the same reason... It all goes back to "traffic pattern work".... I would also teach, from downing to touchdown, a power-reduction concept - you can decrease power but can NEVER add power unless there is a requirement for a "go around" or in gusty wind conditions.... I really admire your teaching of the nose wheel HAS to settle down on the CENTERLINE of the runway...! Again, GREAT Vid...! Thanks for posting this...! Gordon in Maryland

    First solo 500 foot ceiling foggy with good visibility below the fog. Turned finals pulled out full flap dropped power & the altimeter hardly moved . I had to go around & slip it in, fortunately I knew how to do it. My instructor was delighted, I just did what I had been told what to do. I was flying an old Auster, I loved that thing, hardly responsive but heaps of fun to fly & learn how to land. Landed on dirt very few paved runways around where I live.

    @Pilot_engineer_19 Před 2 lety +2

    I think you need more.
    Like rate of decent, how to know when you are 10 ft above the runway, and exactly what the pitch is at any time during the landing. I saw some videos with
    Synthetic vision which gives you exactly what you need to land a plane. How do you do this with out this aid?

      @jmitterii2 Před rokem

      Some do use a dry erase marker to help train. But you just need to realize what you're looking at and why... the marking just shows this vividly for the slow among us.
      Just know that your aiming point should drift down or up on a stable approach to land, but just stay at the same place on the window.
      If aiming point drifts up, you're too low and need to decrease your rate of descent to get back on a better glide path. Add power. Keep pitch for speed as needed.
      If aiming point drifts down, you're too high and need to increase your rate of descent to get back on a better glide path. Reduce power. Keep pitch for speed as needed.
      Power for altitude, pitch for speed for landings. And really, this same concept is essentially for keeping altitude and speed controls for any part of the flying. Just some other stuff to consider.

    Try looking for the Young Eagles program which allows 8yo.to I believe 18yo. to fly with a pilot at normally no cost like an introduction flight. If lucky enough you may find one who is a CFI (instructor) that can sign off on the time as well. It's a great program for kids. They will accept donations but it's not required. There a great group of people.
    Good luck.

  • @rdlez
    @rdlez Před 7 lety +2

    I know AGL means "Above Ground Level", but what's the height valve? Like if I'm 500 feel below clouds but really I'm 700 feet AGL. Does that mean at ground level we are 200 feet higher than see level and I'm suppose to add that to those figures?
    Surly, y'all can see I'm a rookie. Thanks for your help in advance.( Please no wise cracks okay? Thanks)

    • @brandon5058
      @brandon5058 Před 6 lety +1

      rdlez It depends on the elevation. AGL means how high you really are above the ground. So if you are flying at 850ft and there is a mountain thats 850 ft your AGL is 0 ft. When runway elevation is 200ft you would indeed need to calculate 200ft + your original height.

      You can fly at your age......go the the airport, arrange for an Instructor to give you a first lesson. As a CFII, I found that taking a young person flying is very enjoyable. The instructor needs to send some time (like 1 hour) explaining A/C control before you get in the airplane.....so that you can better understand what is happening once in the air. While in the air, you should be doing most of the flying with the instructor telling you what to do. Years ago, on a 1000 mile trip, my 8 year old niece did most of the A/C control in a Cessna 182. It was fun for both of us.

      @MrTurbine777 Před 5 lety +1

      Disagree. The low they showed for me looks normal. Guess it's like anything else in life and how you did it first. Of course every landing is different, but in calm winds, low elevations, good weather (temps), I always prefer a low profile approach. Maybe the military man in me? My first plumbing boss 40 years ago was an insane perfectionist and since then I've yet to find anyone with a fraction of my own precision, obsessiveness and quality in what they do. I don't contribute it to me, but the man who taught me. Guess it's the same for a pilot who learns how to fly and always have contingency vs the person who rents a plane twice a year (at best) that just isn't comfortable with "flying".

  • @vedymin1
    @vedymin1 Před 5 lety

    People fly these too much like airliners, this is a piston engine not a turbofan, it has an almost instant reaction to throttle and a much lower dependability. Also the plane you are flying has a much lower speed range than an airliner. It is much safer to fly a higher approach most of the time, look at ww ll landing techniques, they almost guarantee that in case of an engine failure you will have the runway made every time. Dragging yourself close to the ground with a much more failure prone engine just so that you can do that 3 degree glideslope like big iron does is like dropping all your life insurance out the window. Liners need to fly like that thanks to how their engines respond, their range of useful thrust, the range of speeds for landing, etc etc. Ga's don't. And if you need to drop that altitude, just do a slip.

    Sporty's, like many others, are "Screwing the pooch" so to speak. I've bought 2 complete PPL and IFR DVD sets from Sporty's over the years for no small fee and last year I looked into buying my 3rd. Sadly they now do the cloud BS and you no longer own something you can watch at your leisure. If you buy it today, get busy (like most people) and your year ends, then you must pay for it again, and again, and again. It's now a never ending rental agreement and I WISH I could post an image here to show the response I was given last year when I politely inquired about it. I was once a major Sporty's contributor and now I hope they crash and burn for not just their selfish and greedy practices, but how I was talked to by their supposed MOD (manger on duty). Mind you, I talked to the MOD AFTER the initial insult. Greed is the new, them.
    I still use their site. Though very slow these days, I still have my reasons. The last 4 (maybe 5) thousand dollars I spent was after reading about it on their site and then simply Googling it and buying it elsewhere.
    I can only imaging that the great man, Richard L. Collins kept these selfish bastards at bay while he was alive and now that he's dead they stomp on his grave. Burn in hell you selfish has-beens.
