      I concur 100% - there are no old brave pilots as these two so eruditely and succinctly explained. I had great instructors five decades back. Two real old farts that did advanced training had flown in WWI on opposite sides and were great buddies and taught us to fly by the seat of our pants. Learned to fly on the coast, so every landing and t/o was cross-wind. In one very windy stormy day as a cyclone approached we went up and actually flew just above stall speed backward in a 65-knot headwind in a C-150. My first cross-country and landing at 3000' was a shock to the system - power was missing after all the sea-level training.

      i recently read an article that was discussing about how a society communicates. It stated that in order for a society to survive it's language has to be based on Logic And Reason which produces truth!!. Our nation is no longer dealing with Logic and Reason on any level, except maybe gravity. Which is why,I think, that we are in the trouble we are in. We can no longer dialog about anything with out it becoming a shouting match. Thank you gentlemen for being so logical and reasonable in you talk about a difficult, but necessary, topic.

    I saw Dan Gryder on the FlightChops channel recently when he spoke about the many deadly General Aviation accidents, mistakenly caused by GA Pilots. Flying low and slow while maneuvering an Airplane especially during takeoffs and approaches, (especially within the landing pattern). Sadly, he mentioned that he had lost close friends due to these types of GA accidents. I was glad to hear that both JB and Dan, (with all of their combined Pilot experience) will be working together on this General Aviation - Pilot Safety project. My thanks to Dan Gryder for bringing this GA Pilot Safety Information forward and JB for hosting it on his UA-cam channel. This Pilot Safety Information will soon be seen by the hundred thousands of UA-camrs, in effect, saving the lives of GA Pilots and their passengers for many years to come! Personally, I will Not miss a singe one of these GA Safety Episodes on this "Blancolirio Channel"! Big Thumbs UP as Always!

  • @4edward61
    @4edward61 4 роки тому +22

    The best explanation on how to figure out a departure "turn back" was from the late Richard Collins.
    He said you fly at a higher safe altitude, then act like you're taking off (full power, nose up, etc), then chop the power. As you go through getting the nose pushed over and airspeed established, you make your 180 deg turn back and when you "establish" your wings level return attitude, you check your altimeter for altitude loss and see what it is. Once you've done this a few times, you'll know - with practice - how high you need to be, with a buffer, to turn back if power fails. You can "set this" in your take off process each time.
    This is just like we do in gliders. It's a call out as we go from take off to release. "Straight ahead, on runway. Straight ahead, in field. 200 feet (alt) turn back." We talk it on every take off. Good to know with or without power!

I believe he has even flown a plane into a cheap and soft and inexpensive crash site in a cornfield since this was made. But I am looking forward to whenever the rest of this series comes out.....just saying.

      If steering into a skid is counterintuitive for someone, that someone shouldn't be in a car. That is a natural instinct. Same goes for flying. If your plane is stalling and you just wanna pull back on the stick you probably shouldn't be in an airplane

    I spent yesterday morning getting checked out for a new flying club, so it was stalls, stalls and more stalls. Steep turns. I realized that I don’t care one bit about exploring the edges of a flight envelope, I’d rather work on how to stay in the *middle* of the envelope. This is what I’ve learned from Dan and I have taken his concept of minimum maneuvering speed to heart. No airline pilots practice stalls.

    The 1st 8 seconds of this video put me in such a great mood and made me laugh out loud as I watched your young professor of aviation going through the basics for us, he is so darn cute!!!! I couldn't help but smile so big I laughed!!!
    The rest of the subject is in quite a different level of mood.
    It's really a great video with the 2 of you discussing openly and sharing your wisdom gathered over decades of experience between the two of you and you make the answer so plain and simple it's makes the cure seem undeniably easy and painless to obtain. Definitely painless compared to the alternatives!
    I realized as I watched this video, that what I am seeing and hearing here is the equivalent of watching John Wayne and Jimmie Stewart getting together to rev up the war bond sales!

I remembered what my flight instructor had said about aborting a takeoff if something didn't seem right. I rechecked that everything was OK, took off and had an uneventful flight over to Half Moon Bay for lunch.

    As a Naval Aviation advanced jet instructor (TA-4J) I was also actively flying sailplanes at a nearby glider club on weekends. During a stable, poor "lift" day, I had flown into the glider port in an aero club T-34. I took one of my fellow glider pilots for a ride in the Mentor. During a slow roll not very far from the field, the engine quit while we were inverted. Attempts at a restart and a couple of quick laps through the checklist failed to elicit even one sputter or backfire. I assessed that we were within gliding distance from a downwind entry to the pattern and committed us to a power off landing on the paved runway. I entered onto the downwind leg in a gliding descent, configured opposite the touchdown zone and made an otherwise "normal landing" in the first 300 feet of the threshold and coasted clear right in front of the glider hangar. it was as close to perfect energy management as I could have imagined. It certainly helped that we had the necessary altitude when the engine failed. There's no accounting for sheer dumb luck! But I don't think I could have pulled it off without my extensive glider experience and what I had learned about judging a glide cone for off field spot landings.
    During final approach, the prop stopped windmilling. That was the only clue to the spectators that anything was wrong. As we rolled onto the grass in front of the Hangar, I asked my backseater what he thought of what had just happened. He said, "Well, you did okay, but you had plenty of altitude to start with. When I was crop dusting, I had three engine failures and forced landings, all below 50 feet!" That gave me a much needed dose of humility!

    That was excellent, thanks. As a much younger pilot I used to wonder why us Canucks spent so much time practicing recognition and recovery from full and incipient spins while my American friends said they’d never experienced a fully developed spin? It wasn’t until I experienced an engine failure (after I failed to reject a take off) in the circuit that I appreciated how much my glider training and hours of simulated departure stalls prepared and conditioned me to avoid stalling the plane at low level. You can’t practice too much!!

    Wonderful video, unfortunately I am not a pilot and at 64 may never be, but I have applied Dan's teaching to many areas, he was in the DC-3, teaching and asked the question, "what is the cause of most accidents?" answer LOSS OF CONTROL! So as I train FF's in our dept in the apparatus', it's all the same, loss of control, tips trucks over, makes airplanes fall from the sky. What was that point, was it when you started adjusting the radio, turned your eyes from what HAD to be paid attention to? What was that point, figure that out and you find the cause of the accident, for instance, what turned your attention from airspeed, it wasn't airspeed that caused the stall, it was the point at which you gave up control of that airplane, truck , bus, ship, etc. I'm really excited to see this series, I have been learning a lot from your videos Juan, and mostly about aviation, but a lot of this stuff applies to life VID ON and Thanks Dan!

    This very cool. I have done some skydiving training and some paragliding flying for a few years. But that's it. Those experiences gave me a new appreciation for good attitude and good process. My paragliding instructor taught us to use good judgement (this is something that is only acquired with experience) and he always insisted we stay within a predefined sandbox for one's skills. I think you are on to something. Good luck!

    I first saw Dan on the FC Dakota video, then again when he first explained this in detail. His plans can only improve GA and after this and his other recent videos will do just that.. My gosh, when you hear a story like ripping down a mile long runway and never get the hint the bird is not going to go positive rate?? Damn near enough time to pull out the Theory of Flight and brush up on how aircraft fly, and still abort short of the overrun :P. Thank you Juan and Dan!

    Well done guys..!! Many years ago when I used to fly GA airplanes, I practiced much of the things that you talked about and spent a great deal of time in the pattern practicing takeoffs and landing from all type situations. Many of my friends made only the MINIMUM of a takeoff and finally a landing. Great work guys.....!!

    I think Dan's idea is brilliant. I've seen all of his videos on this topic (Except Aviation 101 but that's coming). Nothing bums me out more than when I read about a stall / spin accident. I use Kathryn's Report, Flight Radar24, etc. too. In fact, this afternoon I heard a C208 coming from the general direction of some rough looking clouds (rain looping back into the clouds over the mesa). It was a freighter coming from KABQ and it ended up flying the Rwy 23 approach to KFMN. I bet he found the bounce house on his ride up. At around the same time a C182 came in from the southwest, over the mesa, but was clearly not flying an approach. He was below the cloud deck but following a road to Durango (IFR = I follow roads). It was not a good day for VFR flight. Possible? Yes. Safe? NO.
    Departing KFMN you basically pop off of a mesa. Takeoff to the east and you're pointed straight into town. There aren't much better options taking off to the west. But keeping it flying is a better choice than a half snap to a vertical descent.
    Last thing, making quality videos ain't for sissies :) I liked the ending!

    I don't think I've ever watched a 26 minute UA-cam video to the finish, then hit reload and watched it again in full. Great work, I'm looking forward to more!

    Great video. As long as the strategy is to saves lives not by ridicule but by a concern for peoples well being, your channel will continue to grow. Most importantly save lives. I have owned and flown a Topcub here in Wyoming since January 2003. Before this with a fellow pilot in a Supercub since 1992 I grew up in a family of pilots. Because I have flown mostly low and slow, landed as many times off airport as on , the discussion was especially appreciated.

    I was lucky to have my commercial & instrument instructor who was working on his ATP & 727 rating at the same time. So I got a lot of having to do it along with his work/study.

    Awesome video X 100!!! I'm not a pilot, but I understand pretty well and appreciate the content here and movement Dan is pushing for in GA. I have a few thousand hours flight time as a Naval Aircrewman, and flew with some highly professional and skilled Navy pilots. Thank you for the video!!

    You found your razor and a jam buddy. One of your top 1% videos to date, a win, win.
    Pilots, never forget, fly the plane until the bad noises stop!
    Aviate, navigate, then communicate. Stamp out KABLAMO's!
