    You state that "clearing the engine" is an ACS requirement. I don't see that listed anywhere in the ACS definition of knowledge, risk management, or skills for this maneuver. Am I missing something? Good video, just wanting to clarify this one question.

      Agreed. It's not in the ACS.

      The ACS references the AFH and you'll find it there. Happy flying.

      @@Vpmags I find no mention of clearing the engine in the chapter on steep spirals. I *do* see this reference in the chapter on simulated engine failures, as a suggestion: "An occasional clearing of the engine is also desirable." I don't see anything that would constitute an ACS *requirement*.

      @@dustinwoodhouse1940 AFH Chapter 10, page 3, paragraph 2. It provides guidance but limits verbiage to "should" not "must". If you are concerned, It's probably best to bringing it up with the examiner of the day to better manage expectations for the check ride. If you're just looking for clarification in general, ask your local FSDO. Cheers.

    60deg of bank in a LEVEL turn requires 2gs and increases stall speed. In a descending turn, you're still at 1g and no stall speed increase. Stall speed increases with load factor, not bank angle.

    You guys have been putting out some good content lately. . .it just so happens it's the same content I've been putting out lately lol 😂 I'll put a video out and the following week you'll put one out on the same thing. Or you'll put a video out on something I have scheduled to go out the next week. My steep spiral video is scheduled for Monday haha. . .I am glad to see that both of our videos' messaging has been fairly consistent across the board though 🙌🏻

    Thanks for the videos they have been amazing!!

    You don’t lose more altitude in a larger radius turn. When you bank 60° you have lost a considerable component of your vertical lift vector. Don’t take my word for it, compare a 60° spiraling descent with a 45° spiraling descent. You will see how your vertical speed increases profoundly and you subsequently lose more altitude per 360° turn.

    The music is killing me! Sorry it’s hard to watch any video of anyone explaining anything with music playing in the background. A message to the video editor. None of these videos should ever have music. These are not those type of videos. Thank you.

      Yup Even flight instructors seem to misunderstand that it’s not bank angle that increases G, it’s the associated load factor that you need to maintain level flight that pulls you down.

    • @MRbuildingMR
      @MRbuildingMR 3 місяці тому +1

      Yes you are, after you’re stable in this very long turn with constant airspeed. If you are pulling less than 2G, the airspeed will keep increasing. Put another way: it takes 1G to do a 60° turn, it takes another 1G to not accelerate downwards.
      It’s true for a short duration 60 degree turn you have a few seconds to do a decent turn without loading up before the airspeed runs away from you. But once you stabilize a long 60° turn it’s the same 2G.
