    She nailed the brain disconnect button, but more importantly nailed having Dad as CFI and didn’t stress. Hope she sticks with it!

    I passed my IR may 15th, you IR series was great…. Going through the commercial series right now. These videos are great because I’ll be getting my CFI next and these videos are great because I’m learning a lot about how to teach a new student!!

    You are a very great teacher in the whole video from 22 min to 23min is perfect wish you could teach me so awesome you guys are just flying around learning what is all going on with the airplane. I had a very bad instructor who was just more worried about his outside life then just flying around for fun or learning. wish I could find someone like you!

    Hi Seth, great video! I just started my CFI training so this was very informative. I’m a dad as well so this makes it even more fun to watch. Looks like you and your daughter make a great team. Used your videos for the commercial check ride and passed fist try. Thank you for your great content it has helped me a lot!

    Seth,
    I really appreciate your videos/podcasts. This was a great video to watch. I had my first flying lesson at the age of 14 with my father as my instructor. Unfortunately, I didn’t stick with it at that time. I did finally get my Private, about 30 years later, with my father teaching the whole time!! We were just starting on IFR when I lost him. Now, 22 years later, I am back to flying and picking up where I left off.
    I completely agree with protecting Brinkley on such a public stage. Thanks for sharing what you do and trying to help all of us viewers!!

    This is awesome Seth, she will be a great pilot. She seemed really calm and good sense of direction. She cracked me up when you asked her if she could find the airport “ uh, ya” 😂 The best thing about this is the memories you are creating with her. I get the limited sharing of her training but would be great to get an update on her development. Hoping my grandkids will be interested in flying but like you I will not push it. They will have to come to me if it’s something they want to do.

    Hey Seth, how do you like the ProFlight 2.0 headset? Compared to the A20? I would appreciate any feedback, as I am considering a headset upgrade. Thanks!

    • @SethLakeDPE
      @SethLakeDPE  Рік тому

      I only use the ProFlight in piston aircraft when I can't use my A20s. I would recommend the A20/30 if you fly pistons. If you fly jets, the ProFlight is a good option. Just my opinion.

    Does Brinkley ski? This may be why her rudder gets mixed up - muscle memory, etc. Great first flight and instruction - well done the both of you!
