First Passenger Flight (With My Daughter Amanda)
Переглядів 1,5 тис.4 роки тому
Sometimes the passengers that we take are not comfortable in the sky as we pilots are. Sometimes as pilots we are not paying attention as much as we should to our passengers needs, we are too busy flying the plane. Even the simple sound of the AOA or the auto pilot disconnect can scare our passengers. I tried my best to make my daughter as comfortable as possible during the flight. I have tried...

Touch and Goes!

After N112DR being down for nearly 3 week for maintenance, it was time to get her out of the hanger and flight test the repairs made to the radiator system. Could not ask for a better December day to do some Touch and Goes and stay close to the airport just incase.

I took my RV-12iS (N112DR) to KAXV (Neil Armstrong Airport). I requested VFR flight following and navigated with the autopilot at 6500 feet doing about 111 knots (128mph) ground speed. It was a beautiful day for a flight.

    Aw man such a great video but I have to be honest, ruined by the incessant, distracting, abrasive library music. I couldn't make it to the end. Why does everyone who makes a video have to pretend their a 'film maker' now, plastering their content with noise and 'cinematics'? Listen to this transition 3:49 - why would anyone want that 'painful on the ears' music blasting in their ears after the transition?

I do understand that we've gotta follow our hearts. I also have always had a passion for camping and will most definitely still follow your adventures.

  • @BellyUpFishGarage

    Pretty cool that she went up with you. Just as a point of constructive feedback, I'd probably abbreviate the abort criteria stuff for a nervous passenger down to something like "this is how we get out in an emergency" and then tell them the pertinent details - "push this forward, push this up and walk/run in a direction that is safest." Most passengers don't care where you're going to do in the event of an emergency and telling them all the engine out stuff only predisposes them to thinking about it. Your daughters first words after talking about an engine failure were "has any of that happened before?" So, she's clearly thinking about it. For a pilot, yeh, the abort criteria is good stuff. For a non-pilot, it's a predisposition to being scared, if they're already nervous. Just my $0.02 and we all know what that'll buy.. LOL
