- Juan is a friend of mine and a friend of the channel. I used to fly with him when I worked in Kissimmee. Since I left Juan has been pursuing
his license elsewhere and we had the opportunity to fly together again to see how he is doing. It was great to fly with him again!
Enjoy the flight!

That’s the airport I train at! I love it there in Apopka, every instructor I’ve had is very nice and I’m progressing more each lesson :)
Yes, looks nice and not a ton of traffic to deal with
Getting close to my checkride and it's raining today so watching this gets me pumped!
The wind card is from Mzeroa. Fellow Florida dude. We love you better though Lewis 😘
That’s what I like to hear.. Be a good pilot and go and learn 😉
@@LewDixAviation "And remember!"
Best aviation channel out there! Just started flying a few months ago and can’t get enough of this channel. 13k followers is a crime should be 1.3 Mil followers! Keep up the good work and maybe one day we’ll meet in the sky’s Central Florida flyer as well.
Thanks for that man! Very much appreciated and I’m glad you enjoy my videos! Tell your friends ;)
LewDix Aviation will do!
Glad to see you're staying happy, healthy, current, but most importantly proficient!
Brent Bender Nice one! :-)
Have a nice day guys.... See ya
loved it Lew, Cockpit preparation was KEY for my diversions and my ppl training onwards.Hope too see you back at the airlines again soon!
The camera lighting was fantastic. On the non towered airports, I still call out my aircraft type and tail number. Like to hear what others do.
I’m a student pilot and that’s what I have been taught.
Do you promote the use of diversion plotters? I bought one and it is all I use when I get a diversion in my lessons. Draw a line on the chart, get the track angle, account for wind using the clock method 1/4, 1/2, 3/4 or all the max drift and get on heading with the stopwatch running. Here in the UK there are so many areas of restricted airspace/ATZs that I usually have to route around things en route. All good fun. Good to see another way of doing things.
Honestly never used a diversion plotter before. I’ve always tried to keep it as simple as possible and keep my head down as little as possible. Sound like the plotter method works for a lot of people though
The best aviation channel, ive learnt so much from you, and I wish you were still here in the UK, i'd be throwing my money at you to welcome me to the sky
Haha id love money to be thrown at me to be fair! Thanks so much! I’m glad you enjoy my content!
@@LewDixAviation I haven't flown for around a year and a half, Tomorrow I'm back in the air gladly, so I have to thank you personally, as you have helped me to become fully motivated again and get back into the skies! Do you ever come back to the UK and do any flying?
hey Great video. this how I did mine during my private check ride. I did used my thumb. After getting my distance and heading to my new airport, I turned to it right away. After turning to my heading, I told the examiner that it was going to take me about 12 minutes to get to my new destination which was approximately 20 NM away from me. How I got that was simply dividing total distance by 2 and adding 2 to it. If i get there early, I will simply tell him... " looks like we have a tail wind". I think it is too much distraction and workload trying to fly the plane and using the E6B. They want to see if you can find a quick heading that will get you to your diversion point. dont have to precise. just get there safely and dont get lost. for fuel, I know the DA20 I was flying takes about 7.5 gillions per hour. I did the math on the ground for anything below an hour.
My PPL DPE looked at me like I was nuts when I pulled out an E6B on the diversion.
there’s a diversion plotter you can get that has a ruler up to 40nm, heading compass, windstar, time/dist annex all in a tiny piece of plastic. really worth getting esp if you train in europe where your ETA has to be within 2 mins (for CPL anyways). no room for guess work. however after doing my PPL in the states i know they’re a bit more relaxed (& realistic) when it comes to the VFR diversion on PPL & CPL 😂
Our end of course standards call for the use of an E6B, but like I tell my students. Aviate first. Your first priority is to fly the airplane. He did a great job.
@@110knotscfii I did not say he did not do a great job. I was just giving him a little tip on how to avoid overloading himself. As pilot, we all learn from each other.
That's a lot of calculation for diversion. I usually just use a VOR that is available close by, draw a line on the map from where I am to diversion point, calculate distance, check where my MH will cross the VOR radial,, get a WCA from a closeby heading and thats all, barely 1 min to do calc - to confirm I also use the VOR radial/distance. Ez calculation in the head when it comes to time and fuel calc.
Just remember a good pilot is always learning!!,,,,
Great to see more video as I learn
I hate mnemonics but couldn't resist the "4 Fs" for a diversion, Find it. Figure it. Fly it. Fine tune it." Of course, there's the real 1st F depending on the reason for the diversion!
You always leave me wanting more... Thanks, Lewis.
That’s what I like to hear!
Glad to see ya back!!!
TY for the excellent Videos
Thanks for the informative video!
Wind card is cool but realistically no one is gonna take the time to do that before every cross country and examiner may want to see you do real time calculations using E6B and plotter. Pro tip: I recommend just checking your winds aloft before the flight and go ahead and mark the wind dot on the E6B that way it’s one less thing to do in the air.
“Pro tip” 😂.. Examiner wants to see you not run out of fuel....... think about it pro lol
LewDix Aviation Of course you’re gonna turn to the approx heading first you muppet. Cmon mate think about it
Keep up the good work guys!!!!
Well done
Best aviation channel out there!
Thanks mate!
Keep up the great work i love your videos.
about the easy slight inputs on the last few meters to landing ive always been taught to do the same, However last week i went flying with a atpl bloke who captains a dash 8 and with a bit of a cross wind his inputs where nothing like i had seen before he done quick aggressive side jerks to one side with the stick intermittently right down to flare we where in a 600kg mtow machine..never seen that before.
Nice, very nice!
Any chance for a checkride prep video? One of my favorite aviation channels!
Big chance of that mate. Looking to make one of those in the near future! Thanks for the support!
My first flight was at apopka. Nice small air strip
Nice! I can’t agree that Apopka is nice though haha
I was just watching one of your videos
Not sure If I will be able to hold my altitude trying to use the wiz wheel in the bumpy plane.
In the US, are you guys taught to use the circle circle line method then dead reckoning from there on?
Great to see some old school navigation being used, the must learn skills that UA-cam channels rarely post.
Tell your student im going to teach you AVIATION101 😂😂
That was good and all but more of the tortoise next time please.
😂🐢 he was the real star
More @LewDix doing the kangaroo. It really gets his technical point across, if the point was comedy.
1:59 Mzero....its definitely Mzero lul
Wait! What happened to the tortoise!?
He saw a Hare and started beating him up... Said something about a race they had that went south.. No idea what went on but I continued taxiing...
LewDix Aviation 😂😂😂😂😂
Is that shady flying 1500FT over that big body of water? I always try to be at a min of 4500AGL when flying over Okeechobee.
It’s all about glide distance to shore really. We were within glide distance = not shady. If we were outside of glide distance then we might wanna think about some remedial training haha
Hey what if I want to make a one time donation to your channel instead of the monthly patreon thing? Got a paypal?
That would be more than welcome.. My email on PayPal is Lewdixaviation@gmail.com
Just got my ticket not too long ago, I fly out of Orlando and would love to do a flight together
Nice, congratulations! That would be cool
If you’re down for real, let me know! I typically fly out of apopka. I know your a celeb now that you are ATP, but hey, you still gotta have fun without getting paid for it lol
Why would you just not use the ground speed that the plane is actually doing instead of a calculated one?
Students need to learn other ways of calculating things like GS. I won’t allow my students to solely rely on automation.
yes iam just trying to understand the logic. I agree with you. However, if you in the plane and your flying why would you not just use the ground speed the plane is telling you it is experiencing. Seems like that information is better than a previously calculated one.
9:36 I’m sure we’ve all said that we wouldn’t “try” to kill our instructor. :-). Cool vid.
Aviation 101 has never said how much money he is getting from you tube and P. . He is a great guy but, his flying and school has been paid for and his equipment by who. You might want to send Lew some money he needs it more.
Hi can I hire you as my CFI? :)
Let her take her time to sink and flare slowly.

Eh.... Sub par..... You can do better ;)
