I found it really clear what you were doing every step of the way. You are apparently current and must practice a lot! I’m weirdly jealous. I am in California and it doesn’t rain here anymore so I never get any actual IFR. 😢
I love your videos of Cirrus SR22, I have the affordable RC version and I love it, it flies very well. I have a question, and maybe you have the time to answer me, at what air speed you rotate the aircraft to take off? Thanks…
If I remember correctlycorrectly, it's somewhere around 73 or 77 knots. It's been over a year since I've flown the sr22 but that number sounds about right
Hi Saulo. On takeoff, you can engage the autopilot above 400 feet AGL, arriving at an airport it must come off at traffic pattern altitude, or at minimums if you are shooting an approach. The most important thing about engaging autopilot is: know what modes you will be engaging once it's on! Hope this helps
"Recommended" flaps 50 is the wording I remember. Don't use flaps 100 if you think it will de-stabilize you is how they explain that restriction. But then when reading other publications from Cirrus they say "Flaps 50 landings are prohibited". So as PIC, choose the one that best suits you.
Yes the iFOM note for an IFR approach pg 96 says to, “Keep flaps at 50% for landing unless the runway is in sight and landing is assured before 500 feet AGL. Ensure sufficient runway length is available for a 50% flap landing. A missed approach must be executed if the above conditions are not maintained during an instrument approach.” But as you remark, it is preferred to land with 100% otherwise so I think pilots are assessing whether they can get in full flaps while remaining stabilized.
I noticed your read out language that your glide slope and altitude setting were on “standby”. That, to me, means it is inactive but ready for you to give it directions (think of a standby frequency or transponder on standby.) I think it is more accurate, and I believe Garmin wording, to describe them as “armed” since they are set to do something on their own once conditions are met. I realize this makes no difference to which buttons you actually pressed, but would more clearly convey meaning.
Ah yes! I don't know at what point in my training I switched from saying "armed" to "stby". You are right, I should be using the "armed" statement since it would be more clear to people watching this on "it's going to engage at some point" rather than waiting for me. Lol thanks for your comment!
Solid ass IFR skills! The G6 Turbo is an incredible IFR machine. Keep posting up these low approaches.
Thank you for not adding background music and I also like the way you take make your Cirrus SR22 videos
just found your channel. Love it! Thanks for taking the time to do these. Subscribed.
Thank you so much for the comment! Im glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks. Your videos help me with the flow of an IFR flight. I'm slowly working my way to the rating. Thanks for posting these quality videos.
Any time!
Excellent job. I’m based at KGNV. Have a Bristell experimental IFR and currently ordering an SR22T. Would love to see your plane.
I’m like this adverse weather conditions Garett
Great flight You are a master with the perspective plus. I still need much more practice.
I always played around with it during cruise in VFR flights. That always helped a lot!
Very nicely done. New subscriber.
Thank you so much!

Awh man! Sorry to hear that! Hopefully you'll get some IMC weather going for ya soon enough
Great job with the editing and the flying. Nice demonstration of checklist use too.
Thank you very much! If its made into a habit, its hard to deviate from 😁
Great vid! Thanks for posting
Thanks for watching!
As usual, great video!
Thank you Aaron :)
I’m always watching you showing me how to program all flights into the database in the Cirrus which I would like to do one day with you
Yeah! Lets do it!
Where you been man? Looking forward to new content
Hey! Been away for training. I only get to go home once a week or so. So I'm slowly but surely editing another one.
Wanderfull machine.

Garett I’m looking forward to flying IFR flight
Awesome video. how do you know when you can turn the AP on

@@FlyByGarrett You are the best, thank you very much. Keep up with the good job, pal!
Why did you put in 100% flaps so late into the glideslope? I thought ifr landing procedure with the cirrus was 50% flaps.
"Recommended" flaps 50 is the wording I remember. Don't use flaps 100 if you think it will de-stabilize you is how they explain that restriction. But then when reading other publications from Cirrus they say "Flaps 50 landings are prohibited". So as PIC, choose the one that best suits you.

nice :))
Still no tacos huh?
No joy!
I’d rather do direct holds to make my flight easier planning
