- An introduction to basic instrument flying, based on my experience flying light aircraft and jets IFR for the last 40 years and on training a lot of people to fly on instruments both on the sim and on aircraft.

This is fantastic. Tragically few instructors have exercises for students to do which break down a tiny segment of the skill of flying into something which can be practiced independently. The idea of having the student merely practice flying straight and level, then practice changing altitude slightly and precisely; then change airspeed precisely; then change configuration; and in all cases really pay attention to how it affects the attitude of the airplane - 99% of instructors won't do this more than cursorily. 80% of instructors will give you a list of 30 things to do, tell you to do them, then tell you when you've screwed up, and tell you to try again. Maybe one or two out of a dozen will approach /ab initio/ training in a methodical fashion but even there they often rush the student too quickly, which leaves the student discombobulated and "behind the airplane" and hinders the learning process.
Excellent comments. I wish we knew how to get the Flight Training Companies to change their courses to follow this protocol. Change is virtually impossible. For 50 years I have tried to get these companies to train with Angle of Attack Indicators. You can see how that has failed, yet no pilot flying in the military or airlines flies without an AOA. Finally, the OEM has been mandated, by the FAA, to incorporate AOA in new a/c. Timothy is outstanding in his presentation. Hopefully he can teach AOA in the future.
This is by far the best video I have ever seen on instrument scanning. I have watched it over and over and find it tremendously helpful, and incitfuI. I wish to thank Timothy for his presentation.
BY FAR, this is the best IFR instructional video I have ever seen. Timothy explains the how and why of placing the most emphasis on the attitude indicator. His instruction has helped me a ton and I have dropped all of other advice about using an aimless continuous scan without understanding what I was doing.
Just excellent. As an Air Force trained and long since retired airline pilot who stumbled onto this channel by accident and curiosity, I found the approach and the tone to be as I first succinctly noted: just excellent. Thank you, R.O. Nelsen
As a beginning instrument pilot I'm finding this incredibly helpful. I've made notes and I will be flying soon thank you.
Really good instruction on the IFR instrument scanning and control logic you have successfully used for 40 years. Thank you for sharing.
Valuable contribution to the aviation community.
Great instruction, clear & concise. Can’t wait to implement in my ifr training
Thanks for the video. I've been following your knowledge of IFR in Europe since your presentation of the BIR at the AERO 2022 in Friedrichshafen. Keep it up, you got me inspired!
Thanks for posting this, it was excellent! Very straight forward and makes a lot of sense. I'm sure all of your tips will give me a leg up when I start my instrument training.
This was great! Thanks so much for putting it together!
Without doubt, one of the finest you tube videos on making instruments more "friendly", making inputs more gently, and reducing the multiple challenges in IFR attitude flying to a manageable exercise. Thank you!
This is a wonderful video, I learned so much from your no nonsense practical approach to training. Please do more.
Awesome production
.Informative and concisely executed.
Great video! Please keep'em coming!
Thank you Timothy! Very good simplification of the scan to reduce workload and achieve more accurate instrument flying
Thank you for sharing you attitude instrument flying knowledge!
Best simple explanation , to what appears to be a complicated subject.
Thank you sir for this treasure trove.
Excellent presentation
Thanks for sharing.
Excellent video. Thank you
This is really well done
A great video! Thanks!
Very useful information, thank you.
So interesting. Great video! Thanks.
fantastic stuff.. you are the best.
Nicely done.
Best video Ive seen on basic instrument flying
Very kind of you to say. To me it seems “obvious” but it’s amazing how many pilots just don’t get it. We all did in the old days!!
This was amazing. Can’t wait ti practice.
I really enjoyed that. Thank you. Very useful
Excellent!
Awesome !!! Thank you sir !
This was awesome
Great video! Thank you very much!
wonderful ,thank you for video
Awesome video thank you!!!
Thank you so much for this video
Many thanks, this is really interesting
Tks…good one…coming up to check ride but not done instrument…tomorrow.
Thank you!
Thank you for the video....very educative. Was very easy to understand.
This is very useful please keep it up.
Impoverished Sir
Fantastic, subscribed and I hope you have a lot more like this one!
Thank you. There is a reasonably steady stream. I am working on No.17; 18 in the pipeline…
@@TimothyNathanPPL-IRvery much look forward to studying them all - thank you so much for making them!
Very helpful…just coming up to check ride PPL UK. 🏴👍
Thank you so much for this basic info for every aspiring pilot...Very informative, and presentated in a very clear and "to the point" way! (despite it's a bit difficult for me to grasp everything, because of your Brtish accent, but i' plan to watch the video several times.) Once again, thank you Sir!
I have no accent 😂
Timothy, many of us would like for you to have a presentation on the training and use of Angle of Attack displays. Would that be possible? It has been around since the mid 50's and is being mandated by our FAA for new OEM aircraft in the US.
Not a bad idea. I’ll discuss it with my colleagues. The next four, about visiting the UK from abroad, are set in stone, though.
Give it your best Bloody Go and we will be standing by. Thank you.
do you offer hands-on flying tutorials live on micro soft flight sim? thanks
I do on X-Plane to people looking to gain a rating or improve their skills. I have not yet looked at MSFS, but reports are that, while it’s very pretty, it’s not brilliant for IFR, but I am happy to give it a go.
Looks like this is the exact opposite of what they teach over here in the US. They talk about undue reliance on attitude indicator, and they want you to have a "primary" instrument for each type of maneuver by reference to which to make the change, and then you frantically scan all 6 instruments in an endless rat race (or even a special magic scan for when you are, say, in a turn). Attitude method seems much easier, except I'm not sure what you do if your attitude indicator craps out.
You should be trained for what to do under those circumstances, but, these days, many aircraft carry more than one attitude indicator, preferably one electronic and the other vacuum.
Also, many autopilots run independently of the attitude indicator. One example is the STEC range of rate based autopilots, another is digital autopilots which run on their own independent AHRS unit.
So, my suggestion would be, rather than rely on partial panel skills, try to arrange that there is a back up to the artificial horizon in one form or another.
You still need partial panel skills, and should practice them. But to fly every flight as if the most helpful of all your instruments is absent is to increase your workload hugely.I am amazed if it is common practice in the USA to teach that.
My instructor said that the AI is the least useful instrument.
Excellent! I’m 1/2 way into IFR flight training and I was having all the issues you covered. I didn’t understand despite my instructor’s best efforts. The visual aids and your excellent explanation we’re very helpful. The cockpit is a horrible classroom. Going out today to practice in VMC The scan process correctly. I understood that the AI was important but you brought it home for me. Hopefully instrument training will no longer be such a struggle. I have almost 400 hours total flight time but when I get under the hood i’ve been acting like a rookie. Thank you and keep up the good work.
I’m trying not to pick up the funny way you pronounce words. After sharing your videos with my instructor he asked me if maybe he should speak with a British accent to get me to pay attention better….. cheerio!
