Robinson R22 Helicopter - Erwinna Private Airstrip - PA77 - Delaware River
Erwinna Private Airstrip and the Delaware River are my absolute favorite "inspiration" flights. When training becomes monotonous, these sights and sounds light the fire again. Much needed pause today for a reboot.

    When I was transitioning to the Stearman I communicated with the flight instructor through a Gosport Tube. I would have really appreciated modern communication. The one thing that always stuck with me was the advice to dance on the rudder pedals when landing otherwise she'll come around on you.

    Great video. Your instructor teaches quite well. I too teach in a 1946 cub. I differ from him slightly in one piece of advice he gave to you early in your lesson. Referring to wheel landings, He said that many instructors teach students to hold the tail up for as long as possible on the roll out so it won’t take back to the air if you pulled the tail down. He was against this practice because he felt you needed rudder and tailwheel authority earlier. I concede that is a good point to bring the tail down early for higher cross wind scenarios. But I disagree that it should be the primary practice for wheel landings. I believe that for training purposes, or just normal wheel landings with a direct headwind - I teach that it is better to keep the tail up as long as possible. But not due to a concern of the plane taking back to the air. My reason is due to gyroscopic precession. When pilots yank the tail down early… or more important if they do it aggressively… the airplane WILL swerve. New pilots may not anticipate the swerve adequately and they risk a ground loop. Many many ground loops in all types of tailwheel airplanes were done after a wheel landing - during the roll out. The pilot pulls the tail down too fast and the plane swerved. By keeping the tail up longer, the plane is going incredibly slow by the time the tail stalls and automatically drops to the ground. There is almost no tendency to swerve at that point.

    Recently practiced hover autos after not doing these for a while. I rolled off the throttle too quickly and it was very bouncy. The video was quite helpful and I've practiced it in my Virtual Reality simulator. Stay in touch with updates, would enjoy collaborating. The Steep approaches and max t/o were also great to watch, thank you!

    Why do you land on the numbers and not the taxiway

    • @GabrielHernandezAviation
      @GabrielHernandezAviation 4 роки тому

      I’m guessing you’re an airplane pilot? Hehe just kidding. We often do take the taxi way if there are airplanes in the pattern. Shooting for the numbers is a great way to coordinate airspeed, decent rate, and general controlability. Today it’s the numbers, later it could be an oil platform, or a small patch of grass in the middle of the woods, if that makes sense. Not picking a spot can make me lazy with setting up a good approach. Easier to communicate with the person sitting next to you than saying, see that dark patch of grass next to that 4th taxiway light etc. Thanks for watching!
