    Sienna , you are doing a great job dialling in those landings despite the wind trying to blow you off. Here's a little thanks to contribute to your flight training. It's not a bunch but have my own training to pay for as I work twords my commercial. Keep up the studies and fly every chance you can and you will be great I have no doubts.

    So proud of how far Sienna has come. Landings are finally coming together. I love the fact that she's starting to figure out what she needs to put the plane where she wants it.
    Wish I could donate to help her get further down her path to a career in aviation.
    Great series, Chris.

    Chris, she is doing great! One thing I struggled with while training in my Cardinal was side slipping on final t.o stay on centerline. It was actually something I had to learn on my own (UA-cam) as my instructors never explained it or showed it to me. I got caught in the "switching of instructors" and I think the second one thought the first one had taught me all about it. My training was in Erie Pennsylvania (windy city) in a Cardinal (forward cg) so rudder and stabilator fineness took some time to get proficient at. Now when I land at other airports, I'm amazed at how easy it is... I haven't heard you mention anything about slips to Sienna!

    Great videos, great training, and great learning points. She is really doing great and really coming along. I know there's lots of things you're probably discussing with her that are not on camera and other points, but I'd like to share something that she can do in her off time. If she watches some of the videos on Pilot Debrief, it will take some of the points that you've been training her in and even introduce other learning items that come forth by watching other do's and don'ts. Just a thought. Keep up the great work and flying. God bless and fly high!

    Great Instructing! What a great place to fly, i can see how one can get distracted with the scenery, it's sensory overload! If i can point out a couple of things from experience... the radio calls talking about her on final definitely contributed to the lack of flare, intimidating and oh so distracting as a new pilot. Also at 6:22 flaps were at 20 degrees on a turn into the wind? Possibly contributed to her being slow on the turn with nose up... was that an intentional maneuver? Overall great job Sienna, keep it up!

    Surprised she didn’t flare. Had it been a while since her previous flight? Does it help to do a pre-flight review or visualization, verbally walking through how the circuit will go? Just to make sure all the important steps are top of mind?

  • @BjoernKarlsson
    @BjoernKarlsson 4 місяці тому

    A question: In the first power-off you said "pitch for best airspeed". I thought you would mean best glide, since it was a power off circuit, and you can always lose alt/speed on the final as needed?

    This has been interesting to watch. On one hand i'm rooting for her and she is a sweety with a great attitude. On the other hand im so glad im not her instructor because signing her off would feel like signing her death certificate right now. I think she's just one of those students that will take a lot longer than average but once it clicks she'll be good to go. Cheers!

  • @aarontrueblood4340
    @aarontrueblood4340 4 місяці тому +1

    CFI checkride next month! Just curious your reasoning for adding what looks to be 10 degrees of flaps in the turn from crosswind to downwind? I haven’t seen anyone do that before and am just curious.

    • @angleofattack
      @angleofattack  4 місяці тому

      It slows the student down, gets them tighter to the runway, etc. I keep them high until the base turn. They fly 80MPH and 2000RPM, one notch of flaps, carb heat. It's the perfect setup for what I want to do. It's not the only way to do it, though.
