Very nice and learning video. Thanks for sharing your skills. I appreciate your previous video about landing cause I have difficulties for well watching the height and for beginning my final approach. Sorry for my bad english and see u soon in France :)
Awesome demos Marc ! You make me want to fly again ! I’m still playing with the flight Idea at 74 years old! I’m looking forward to your explanation of wing collapse and how to avoid the scenario! Thanx Marc you are a great instructor ! Captain Mark H Wirth
Yes mark I promise I will get to that very soon buddy, leaving for France in the morning for a 3 week fly/guiding trip so I may get some filming done there.🪂🙏
