    DPE oral and flight passed. The videos and VSL was a powerful tool to aid in my preparation.

    I have over 1000+ hours and am a CFI. I always file flight VFR plans and do flight following. Don't need to, but I want to stay fresh (and safe), and it's fun to estimate and see how accurate I am in my computations.. I also compute climb and descent rates, times, ETE, etc... among alot of other things. ... rather than just get in and fly.... Keeps me fresh for my BFRs too.

      Isn’t it illegal to “just get in and fly”? At a minimum you need a weight and balance, but without any plan I’d think a ramp check wouldn’t end well.

    • @badgerfishinski6857
      @badgerfishinski6857 21 день тому

      @@jamesh7876 Good question. For example It's not illegal to "get in and fly" VFR to an airport 100 miles away, without a flight plan or flight following. Not advisable but not illegal.

    Hi Seth, could I use the ACE guide as a primary study tool to study for my CPL? Just got instrument rated and am continuing all the way to CFI/II. Thanks.

    • @SethLakeDPE
      @SethLakeDPE  6 місяців тому +1

      I think the ACE guide would really help you study. That's why I created it. It will help you cross reference all the content in the ACS with the source data.

    45:10 re: SLSA with a G3X. I read the question as "it came with the G3X", not "I changed to the G3X". Basically the SLSA should have an equipment list, if they want to install new avionics (or _anything_), it takes manufacturer approval. I'm really glossing over it, but ask the SportCruiser owners what it's like when the manufacturer doesn't have interest and they are stuck with old avionics :(
    It's a niche little world.

      You're right. I misunderstood the question.

      This was just a re-release of the live stream. I'm playing around with different ways of recording and publishing the live streams once they are over. Next live stream will be this Friday and Saturday
