I like the fact that you show mistakes, because it shows that whilst we may know the stuff we can always make a silly mistake and get it wrong. Recognising this helps minimise mistakes in the real exam
Thank you so much @atplclass I really had fun doing "live" the questions. Now they new questions are more difficult for me personally, bc of the phrasing. Anyway just wanted to thank you and see if you have a pdf that you can share with your short cuts and how you hack the system, like your easy summaries.... happy eastern
I have no such PDF to share. You will come up with your own short cuts and procedures for answering these questions and notice the styles of questions that appear most often, just give it time!
On question 7 is it possible to use the formula DRY+TRAFFIC LOAD=ZFM...As we could see we have to reduce the Traffic Load in order being to the runway's limitation for take off...Correct me if I might be wrong. Thank you.
Hello! Great videos. I have a question about MZFW being limiting for real life take off performance calculations. I work for an airline flying an Airbus A320. In our weight and balance calculations we do not consider MFZW when calculating our RTOM. RTOM is simply limited by lowest of RWY performance, max structural take off weight, or Max landing weight (MLM -TRIP fuel). The only time we pay attention to MZFW is if we have a full house, then usually we will be at our max ZFW, meaning we can't load any more cargo or passengers on. Then we might have to OFF load pax in order to take more fuel for the trip, or plan a technical stop to uplift more fuel along the way. In fact we don't even have a published figure for Take Off Fuel (which in itself is quite a vague figure) When does the take off phase stop (flaps retracted or top of climb etc) . So even if we wanted to calculate (MZFW- take off fuel) we can't. My only thought is that maybe this is already calculated in the background by our performance apps, or simply during certification of the aircraft so that there is no case where (MZFW+Take off Fuel) would be the most limiting for our TOM. So my question is, is the calculation (MZFW + take off fuel) perhaps redundant in todays flying? Or are there operators out there still using it ( perhaps on larger aircraft etc). I think if you quizzed most airline pilots, they wouldn't remember about (MZFW+ take off fuel) as being a limit. Any ideas? This has been bugging me for years :D
That's a lot of information in one comment haha! I think in short, yes I agree. I don't think many pilots working today would remember MZFW + take off fuel as being a limit. To be completely honest when you get into airlines you become so reliant on the performance apps that you barely think of these limits. The main reason I look at the weight limits these days is to see if there is any space for more fuel if we need to take extra for weather, delays etc. The practical answer is that you will probably have to know this stuff to pass the exam and then when you get to an airline you will forget a lot of it because you are not using it. I have had to re-learn a lot of stuff to make these videos because I just don't use it anymore...
Hello, thanks for your videos, At the questions you start solving at the 14 minutes and 13 seconds of the Video, I solve it this way: Formula: T + DOM = MZFM So: 110000 + T = 164000 T = 54000 Is it ok or just a coincidence and the way is the way you solve it ?
Could you please make a video or explain us more how to determine CG position and how to calculate it when we using the formula MxD=mxd… it’s so confusing … I’m using ATPLQ and this is my nightmare with reposition CG ….
All subjects will have a live stream exam at the end. The next one will be a Principles of Flight exam featuring me making loads of mistakes as usual and using them to learn more.

Find out which one is your limiting mass. Then find out how much total fuel you can carry on board to take you up to that limit. Then take off the fuel on board and you have the available room left over for tankering fuel.

You need to make mistakes to learn.
These videos are proving to be very helpful. Thanks for making them!
This is the best channel when it comes to ATPL content, the explanations are just top notch.
Thanks so so much for these videos. One of the best around on the platform! Helped me so much
Glad to help!
It’s really helpful for my atpl exams, thx a lot king! Have safe flights.

hello finally a person who does this thank god I found this channel
I didn't understand at first but now i get it thank you !
Thank you much for alt way to do CG movement calculation because the other formula was rather confusing... so much more confident now
Great to hear!
On question 7 is it possible to use the formula DRY+TRAFFIC LOAD=ZFM...As we could see we have to reduce the Traffic Load in order being to the runway's limitation for take off...Correct me if I might be wrong. Thank you.
there's a few question (for ex no. 17), you can use the formula m.d=M.cc it's way faster
Absolutely
Just came to your Chanel thank you, great video quick question would you be doing gen nav videos in the future?
My plan is to work through the subjects one by one. So we will cover "G nav" at soon.
Thank you, i really like this type of videos
More to come!

thank you so much for your videos
could you make a separate video for the calculations of cg with an explanation
Hello, thanks for your videos,
At the questions you start solving at the 14 minutes and 13 seconds of the Video,
I solve it this way:
Formula:
T + DOM = MZFM
So:
110000 + T = 164000
T = 54000
Is it ok or just a coincidence and the way is the way you solve it ?
That works too!
Big big respect
nice one,thank you
thanks, man
Could you please make a video or explain us more how to determine CG position and how to calculate it when we using the formula MxD=mxd… it’s so confusing … I’m using ATPLQ and this is my nightmare with reposition CG ….
can we have live stream like this for nstruments ? air law and agk ect ? very useful !

@@atplclass love it to be raw and real thanks for making us pass our exams and learn more . much love from portugal

Man iam looking forward for new subjects in your channel….
Good job man. Very helpful.
Hello from the future. Thx for all😊

Just don't bother. Move on and do the rest 😂
