that was great, I recently started my ppl and on my fourth lesson i did my first takeoff, the best feeling ever aswell as talking to atc perfectly for your first time keep it up!
Good video Stuart! A long time having since I've been in the air, was in the TB9 'UE group in Fife until 2011 but not flown since as life got in the way, no excuse I know. Anyway I passed my EASA Class 2 this afternoon and I have my first SEP renewal training flight at Fife on Sunday 22nd, really really looking forward to it! Good to hear you say smoothly and slowly advance the power, really used to cringe sitting in the passenger seat when someone used to firewall the throttle from idle without even a second in between. Keep up the good work and may see you around the club sometime soon.
Thanks so much for the comment Richard - always nice to hear from a fellow Fife pilot. Great to hear you're getting back into it - when i haven't flown for a month or so i tend to forget how much I enjoy it. Then I get back in the air and it all comes rushing back to me. Good luck with your renewal - no doubt cross paths soon. Stuart
Good video but i come with an ADD: start after your engine temperature is on green(better al to be on green .. but at some aircraft oil pressure is more than green when is cold and come to green when is hot ... but also when is too much turation is a problem with to much oil pressure - example can damage the filter if is not kind of old metalic inside) Usual increase power on ground before to start moving - if you can control the pitch of props than better...
Hey man did my first take off on my 5th lesson with tayside aviation and used your tips and my take off was more or less perfect (except I used too much back pressure lol) Keep uploading these type of vids - really helps!!
Hey Stuart, Great video! I am on my third or so lesson at fife (by your reccomendation 😉) and can't wait to learn to take off and land, are you planning on doing a similar video regarding landing? Thanks!
Thats so cool! Hope you're enjoying learning at Fife. Yes I have filmed the video about landings so just needs edited now - COMING SOON! Happy flying see you about i'm sure. Stuart
Stewart i really enjoy the videos, but find the backing music a pain and distraction please reduce the volume thanks keep the great work up Daniel Lane
Wht is the standard price per training flight , thinking about doing my PPL.over the next few years budget is tight .you're answer will be appreciated Dan.
You need an aircraft model, I have a replica TB9 G-BKUE model on my desk, a couple of us got one made a number of years ago with exactly the same colour scheme and markings as the real article. I think we sourced them from e-Bay, sent pictures and had them made. If memory servers me well the came from the Far East (Phillipinnes) and were around £90 each, 14" nose to tail standing 9" high on its stand.

Dan.
£180ish per hour of training flight. Recommend a budget of £10k for the whole PPL. Hope this helps, Stuart
HOW ELSE should i decorate the new studio? Thinking of an aviation related wall sticker of some kind..
