    IFR is all about being ahead of the aircraft. Knowing what is coming next and setting up in good time is vital to the success of the flight. This is the first IFR cross country for Conrad who did a great job the whole time we were in IMC. Learning from mistakes is crucial to being a better pilot, and being allowed to make those mistakes makes a huge difference in the growth of a pilot.
    Enjoy the flight!

    Excellent video on the importance of staying ahead of the plane. Once he realized he had missed 3 crucial things (landing checklist, call-out at FIBUS and capturing the glideslope) the jokes ended and things got serious. IMC is no joke. What a great learning experience. Love these!

      Very impressive how he got back on the glidescope. He was also a little fast on short final but got her back down to 65 knots quickly. That did not go unnoticed. 👍🏽

    This was the best video I have seen on your channel as a subscriber in regards to getting a feel how serious it is the fly IMC with no auto pilot! The mental toughness to rely on training and execute. This was full circle aviation on display. Nothing beats proficiency and a master of your craft.

  • @midlifeflyer

    A few years ago I heard that Cape Air, which flies the 60/80 mile route between Boston and the Cape islands, loads and briefs the approach before takeoff. Talk about being ahead! I realize task saturation is a necessary component of primary instrument training - and GREAT job here! - but I've been teaching that in recurrent training as a short flight strategy. Always gets a "wow!" especially when we plan 3 approaches and load all of them before takeoff.

    Great video Lewis. Is that the first time you've been in imc cross country since working at silver?

      I believe it was actually. Obviously we did it a lot at Silver but it’s a different game in a light aircraft with no autopilot haha
      042 is IFR equipped but has a few bugs in its VOR system at the moment that is hopefully gonna be fixed

    Lew, thanks for another great video. Question for ya: How are you keeping all of those GoPros running throughout the entire flight? Are you constantly changing batteries in those things? I just picked up a refurbed Hero 7 Black and I can't much more than 30-45 minutes in the air before it wants to cut out on me, and that's if I'm lucky. And does keeping the LED's off help with battery life? Thanks man. Have a good one!
