Well, that’s 13 minutes and eight seconds of my life I am never going to get back! Once the engine was on, I couldn’t understand anything anybody said.
One of those times i should have read comments first. At least I know what must be like for a deaf person who can't read lips going to class with a teacher who doesn't sign. I just hope somehow I learned enough for my flight in the morning. I'll have to "wing" it
Instructor: Ekjh fdkj ln er lk plik jib! Okay? If you don't do that, you've bought the farm!" Student: W-What? Instructor: Okay, you're got the controls."
That's great. I was taking flying lessons in the summer for my Private Pilot License, but decided I wanted to go with sport pilot instead. My closest training CFI is in Las Vegas from San Diego, Ca.
Your CFI for the Private Pilot license can give instruction for the sport pilot license. But the sport pilot instructor can not give instruction for the Private Pilot.
If you're thinking about it, you are halfway there. Just jump in and make the call to Bill. If you want strictly 103 you'll just need training. I started off in the Quicksilver. Loved it. When I took a ride in the low wing Evektor Sportstar that's when I got hooked. I'm now training for my Sport Pilot certificate. I'll do ultralights too until I can afford a plane. Once I saw this video last May, that's when I made the call to Bill to training. Thanks Phil. Hope to see you soon above our Central Valley ...
@@chrispansoy3943 Bill is good people. Enjoy the time/training with him. I may go back on occasion to fly with him for added pointers. I also saw that Sportstar and thought LSA/Sport Pilot License. Nice thing about that, as Bill said, is that I can apply the ultralight time towards the Sport Pilot certificate and be ahead of the game. Fly safe!
Great to see you taking lessons and I am looking forward to seeing you go solo for the first time. Believe me it will be worth it for all the time and effort you put into building your 103.
Would like to get into flying ultralights. I live in Tulsa, and would like to know if any electric ultralights are worth purchasing. Not interested in the loud gas motors.
LOL....Helmets? For what? I am a biker being forced to comply. My life. MY CHOICE! If I don't have to wear one I personally love the weight difference and freedom you feel. And I'm unafraid. When your time's up, your time is up. The Wright Brothers didn't wear anything until leather became popular. But all that said a helmet will not save you from a catastrophic failure and subsequent meeting the earth un-expectedly. Yer gonna die! But we actively try NOT to do that. Sorry for the delay in responding.
Ultralights are inherently dangerous compared to real aircraft. As long as you know that and accept the facts, more power to ya. These "planes" crash at about 10 times more often than real aircraft.
cloud condition did not look suitable for flying in microlight also you seem to be over correcting the aircraft should’ve let it fly just keep the altitude up of just my opinion
I went on a 30 min intro ride with Bill Bardin. He was such a professional and real gentleman. I wish I lived closer..... really cool setup.
So you've gone recently? I'm considering it and I live fairly close. I've done a sky dive there many years ago.
@@CyberAbyss007 it was a couple years ago 2021
Awesome Job Phil. I can't wait to see more content. The sky is the limit ;)
That's awesome, very happy for you. Can't wait to see you in the air!
You can bet I will video ALL my Aerolite flight tests and flying. Stay tuned.
It's inspirational to see a person chasing his dreams. Thanks for the motivation. One day this could be me!
Shoot for it, believe it, and you'll achieve it. Blue skies and Tailwinds...... :)
I wish we could hear you and the instructor.

would be nice to hear the instructor ?
Instructor: Ekjh fdkj ln er lk plik jib! Okay? If you don't do that, you've bought the farm!"
Student: W-What?
Instructor: Okay, you're got the controls."
Wish there was audio commentary!! Invest in a good audio adapter.
No way! I was just looking up random ultralight training videos and this one is with the instructor I'm looking at, Bill Bardin.
Would love to be able to hear the instructor
Eh.
Just wing it
All I heard was the motor???
I was waiting for it to fly but i liked it anyway
Is bill barden still teaching?!
I do wish I could e heard the instructors audio.
So did you learn to fly the Quick Sliver first then the Aerolite 103 ?
That's great. I was taking flying lessons in the summer for my Private Pilot License, but decided I wanted to go with sport pilot instead. My closest training CFI is in Las Vegas from San Diego, Ca.
Your CFI for the Private Pilot license can give instruction for the sport pilot license. But the sport pilot instructor can not give instruction for the Private Pilot.
Warning. Skip to part 2 for high speed taxi practice. If you want to see him fly, go straight to part 3.
I’m looking to get lessons at the same location, how many flights/hours in total does it take to get your license?

Well, that didn't answer your question.
I know nothing about any of this, but idt you need a license to fly ultra light.
Just rc quad copter

Thanks, and I agree 100%. Stay tuned for all the details of training. Squawk VFR. :)
I wish that we could hear the pilot

Follow your dream. Electric is starting to become popular so be patient. I'm sure you can find, and/or build one. Good luck!!
Hope to meet up with you if my plans work out!! Really want to get one of these and the relevant training too !!
It should have had sound...for both people.
Haven't taken the time to upgrade my video and audio equipment yet. It's not cheap. I'm working on it.
Where's the training? All I see is some guy flying around. No instruction but talking about it for free advertising.
You ended video before take off! 😢
Did you ever hear of a guy getting run over by his own tractor and die in the field. Yeah, it's pretty common. Can you see why this might be similar?
Is that Phil and Bill there flying that Quicksilver...with no helmets?...Ah, they're hair pilots...
LOL....Helmets? For what? I am a biker being forced to comply. My life. MY CHOICE!

Can't hear the other guy
No sound???
One day. Still working towards that and other UA-cam creator fringes.
Chocks! use chocks, while the aircraft is unattended with a running engine.

Fuel drips on me while in seat? Pass.
He said it didn't leak while running, either way an O ring is an easy fix
Put a JetCat P1000 PRO Turbine on that
cloud condition did not look suitable for flying in microlight also you seem to be over correcting the aircraft should’ve let it fly just keep the altitude up of just my opinion
never heard a word od instruction. this is just another me me me video.
Useless... Can't hear a thing.
Without intelligible audio I don't see the point of posting this video and call it "Pilot Training."
I believe it was his training which he was nice enough to put these videos up... It says pilot training, not training video for you
I know right
All that and no flight WTF!!!!!!!!°°°
Biggest waste of 13:18 I'll never get back
He lost me at fuel leak.
Audio is crap
Way too noisy for me sorry
