Wow this is such an interesting way to fly

Thank you for your outstanding presentation! I discovered this through Google as I wanted to do a tribute song and video of the 38 women who lost their lives flying as WASPs. In my video, I will provide this link so that more folks can find out about Evelyn sharp

Wait, is this a simulator?

When I was younger, this seemed fun to me, now it just seems like a headache...lol

yuck. I'll stick with VFR thnx. 😂

What I don’t get is the nervousness in Pillots during this. I played MLB baseball once upon a time. 100% prepared before being thrown into Yankee Stadium. Do you folks visualize the ceilings before you go out? Asking for Kobe…

Try the Eastwood SCT. Lighter but very similar.

What's the name of the polish you are using

Any ideas on how to make plexiglass windows clear again? I have seen polishing with a machine somewhere, is that correct? Thank you, your videos are super interesting

Which brand of coating did you use?

One of my fave GA airplanes.

How about with the fire retardant, do you have to apply it based on repair aviation chapter?

single engine at night in IMC Jesus lads if you loose the engine your dead , why risk it

edit: Just realized this is 4 years old! Maybe you'll still get something out of this though! Stellar CFI and great flying! Here's some critiques from a fellow CFI. 1. On departure, if no ODP exists nor a DP is assigned, then climb straight out to cross the opposite end of the runway at (35') or higher and continue your climb to at least (400') before turning on course. 2. Phraseology for climbs and descents is "[atc]; N480H; 2 thousand climbing 3 thousand", don't use thru, for, at, or to. Also, you don't need to include your type, just use November. 3. NOTE: I like the NATS acronym for approaches. NOTAMS; ATIS, Arrival, and Approach; Touchdown and Taxi; Systems. a. NOTAM: Brief any applicable NOTAMs and how they will effect you (tip - do this during preflight). b. ATIS: Retrieve WX. c. Arrival: Brief the STAR or how you are planning to navigate onto the SIAP. d. Approach: Brief the SIAP or visual approach. e. Touchdown: Brief what runway you are landing on, expected rollout, and where you expect to exit. f. Taxi: Brief expected taxi route to destination. g. Systems: Brief systems usage. This is generally AP and you might brief how much it will fly, when you expect to disconnect it, and what you'll do if it fails or can not maintain a stabilized approach. 4. The PT 2 min and 1 min rule of thumb usually works great, but in a Banana you have to keep in mind that 10nm requirement. If you are doing 140kts TAS with a 10kts tail wind outbound (150 GS) then you're travelling 2.5 miles a minute. If you time 2 min outbound, then 1 min for the PT, include your 180 degree turn at PT, and some fudge factor for timing inaccuracies then you very easily can exceed the 10nm requirement. Best thing is to slow to an initial approach speed or shorten your outbound. I prefer slowing down, puts you closer to a landing configuration. This is more of a concern in an aircraft without a nice range ring. 5. NOTE: Approach clearances follow a nice acronym, PTAC; it stands for Position, Turn, Altitude, and Clearance. You only read back TAC. 6. Avoid abrupt control inputs and moving your head around too much. Both of which can result in illusions very quickly. Keep everything within arms reach and only shift your eyes when looking around the cockpit. 7. NOTE: As you descend on a SIAP the winds will change drastically. Your initial heading bug for wind correction will have to be updated somewhat frequently (you started inbound with a 20-30 degree correction, but ended up with only a 10-15 correction). 8. For missed approach consider a memory aid like the 5 Cs; Cram (throttle and mixture), Climb (level-off then climb), Clean (carbheat, flaps and gear), Configure (SUSP on 530, missed checklist), Call (ATC with intentions). 9. If you aren't looking at your instruments (checklists, bugs, GPS, etc.), do not make control inputs. Lightly leave your hand hovering on the yoke. When you come back to the 6 pack, go straight to the attitude indicator. 10. Stabilized Approach Concept is very important, and your CFI is awesome for hammering it home. For reference here is SAC for my company... a. 1000 from DA/MDA: Configured to land. b. 500 from DA/MDA: Stabilized - Vref +10/-0, lateral and vertical guidance within 1 dot, configured to land. You may correct any errors here. c. 300 from DA/MDA: Stabilized - Vref +10/-0, 1 dot, configured. If by this point you do not meet SAC, then go-around is required. d. Callout each of these altitudes and whether your are configured, stabilized, correcting, or going-around. I really want to stress, that you did exceedingly well as a student in night IFR. You're putting in the work and it shows! Everything here are items that will take you from an amatur to a proffesional.

Awesome video! Thanks

Your video is awesome!

Honest question: What do you do if the G530 fails?

As a student doing their IR rating this is the most enlightening video i have seen so far. Super helpful seeing it all done in real IR. Thanks for sharing

What's the green round display in the middle? Looks like an RWR.

beautiful. I love that video

I have never seeing the regular wheel behind the hub cap be better looking then the hub cap.

Hi, Are you using a lens guard on your Insta 360 when flying? Thanks for all your information. I enjoyed the video!

Which isn't on the ground!

God damn this is pretty nuts. About 10-15 hrs into my PPL and I can't imagine flying like this. Will get there someday though!

Love the Luscombe videos. One of the best aircraft!

Thanks for yet more quality content, Mehrdad. Hope you continue to get in some nice wheel landings in between our IA thunderstorms. And that you're enjoying those Randolphs as much as I am mine. Greetings from the DMFD. Chris

Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great video and videography! I just finished my PPL in Des Moines and also make videos! Let me know if you want to collab on a video!

Awesome man!! Gonna get my whiz wheel, paper, pen out and do some pilotage and dead reckoning.

Loved this video. Great following along with you.

I found tailgraggers very difficult on take off. I ended up - pull forward to straighten tail wheel; look at far end of runway; I would twitch my feet, left, right, left, then full power and let your body do it. There is NO time to think. Later, it was a piece of cake! MUST believe in yourself - you are hot! Nothing is a problem. Is a great feeling - must learn to isolate your emotions. Panicking will kill you. CAVU skies!

Fun fact: This is what inspired the name of the car Ford Mustang

Pretty work

Isn't that just a normal landing..?

Almost as good as Turtle Wax.

That happened to me In a citabria. I landed all right. But I released the pressure on the stick, and the tail went up a little bit, and I ground looped it. Luckily, I got it on the control, and nothing happened. It was 90° at 15 knots. Runway 9.

Very nice tutorial,, OH i mean Stuck it !

Pretty sure i am not smart enough to learn to fly

That's what I needed. I hope it's "basically" the same for model Y long range. Gracias

Awesome Headset!

Seems like you have a slight left crosswind that is picking the left wing up. Keep the aileron planted and ease off.

Nice doing this in Iowa where most terrain is flat.

Thanks, that was fun.

Thank you SO MUCH for posting this. Incredibly beneficial learning experience for anyone watching who understands basic aviation terminology. Real world example on why sticking to procedures especially for missed approaches is so very important.

Can u two hand the stick ?

Do you clean the surface with isopropyl after the polishing step? Before ceramic?

It takes a special person to own a polished airplane. There's ALOT of work. A rag wing Luscombe would be easier. Beautiful airplane! I had a friend who owned a Luscombe, what a fun airplane.

Well the fact that you are wearing a mask in the open air on a sunny day already proves you have questionable judgement

That thing is downright beautiful!

Having better results with this compared to the Gtechniq and the felt brush?
