Brilliant! If these techniques and techniques of slow flying were taught as part of standard pilot training, there would be fewer accidents and deaths. Great video and God bless!
I really appreciate you taking the time to share your expertise. As a newly minted Private Pilot living in Alaska smooth Backcountry Landings are a must. I look forward to practicing some of your techniques
The ground effect thing is cool, I used to do that in a couple of aircraft where we had a mile of airfield but would be operating from anywhere between a third of a mile to half a mile in, get it sitting on the bubble and then use pitch and power to keep it there, also had mechanical flaps so spot landings were just retract the flaps and like you it can then be easily transferred to shorter landing areas where you want to touch down precisely.
Yes this channel is really good. Not too much information, not too fast, but a lot of great tips, great piloting examples and great photography to record it all.
It seems you know exactly how far you are off the ground at all times and then time the flair/round-out to perfection. I'm very jealous.... I'm learning right now - another lesson today - and am struggling with just this element. I get fixed looking out the front and once the nose is up I lose track of where I am. Haven't learned to take a look out the side to see where I am. We only have 550m of grass strip so not much chance to fly along the ground. Your video is inspirational.
I really enjoy your content. Is there any way you could point me to the coordinates of some of these great gravel bars? I would love to follow along in the simulator.
enjoy your videos, did you repair the 182 after the mishap? just curious, love that airplane, my uncle eric owns a 1949 170A sweet plane, just needs a bit more omph than the stock 0-300 outputs.
@@motoadveBackcountry182 I believe yes, I certainly could in a Bush Caddy without flaps. A sideslip can then be used to steepen the approach as needed. Two advantages of not having flaps are A - Having one less thing to be concerned with and B - The calibration etc. of an AOA only has to be concerned with one wing profile throughout the complete speed range.

You have mastered the flying of that 182!!! Love it

Every vid you make puts me back in the air... Thank you for all you do..
Seriously, what a fantastic channel.
Thanks
@@motoadveBackcountry182 May I ask, what do you do for a living sir?

@@motoadveBackcountry182 Don't mean to bombard, have you considered giving Flight Tours as well?
Excellent video you are much better then an instructor, they teach the wrong way , I have been trying to explain this to them
Would be cool to see how you fly steep approaches and power offs.
I love these landing videos. I learned something new when watching these videos.

Same exact story with me @ 10hrs in. It's a struggle!
Patience, with practice it will come.
@@motoadveBackcountry182 Thank you much! I'll keep trying till I get it right (or really wrong once :) )

Your videos are always educational but also enjoyable. And your drone pilot is great, too!
Landings smooth as butter 👌👍
learned a lot, thankyou!
Awesome information!
Thank you😎✌🏼
Wise words from experience. Thank you.
Очень Хорошо! Большое Вам Спасибо)
Great video. Who is your drone pilot? That is some good drone work.
Your videos are very inspiring, and your 170 is a terrific plane; may I ask how you found it, and how much something like it might cost?
Great video Brother
Amazing skills, you fly like a bird👍

Can I do this in a Citabria 7ECA with no flaps?
I think yes.

How short can you land the 182 and the 170, just average numbers?
Looks like around ~150ft from touchdown on some of his landings.

Great Video! What are you filming with on the ground? HD camcorder? Thanks in advance.
