There is a crosswind he is not accounting for. That is another reason for his instability on the touchdown and rollout. The crosswind is coming from the right, that is the reason he is drifting left of centerline.
That's the Cardinal crow-hop! Infamous. Cardinals are one of the few high-wings with a stabilator, which makes handling pretty interesting. So interesting that they had to make changes to the tail before anyone would buy a new Cardinal back in the day. They should all be retrofitted now, but Cardinals still don't land like SkyHawks. That's not to say that the basics don't apply! Just that every model has nuance. - a Cardinal driver.
@@ddthompson42 I wondered about make of airplane that you answered. Also looked for airspeed indicator that was covered up by the IPad. I was nervous about his approach early on but hard to tell from a video. He seemed low and flat to me without enough right wing dip. He would have had some left rudder that would have had his nose wheel cocked left. Cessnas have spring nose that would have straightened up but a slight left rudder would have steered him left initially. I was based out of a narrow strip and landings had to be spot on. I also think that left propeller torque kicked in some. I know that Cessnas are about like kites with motors and full power can be lagging. I’m no CFI but had he applied full power and left flaps alone and lowered his nose a tad, I think that would have had a smoother outcome. I learned in Cessnas but my time was in heavier more Hp that fly differently. Mine approached at 90 mph and was heavier and my home strip was a cow path. He did a pretty good job not wrecking but that’s just my UA-cam perspective.
Looks like maybe he had some depth perception issues thinking he was lower than he actually was. If he's accustomed to doing pattern work at a much smaller airport with a narrow runway, and then flys to a bigger airport with a wide runway, the sight picture is going to look different, and you might expect your wheels to touch down only to realize you are still several feet above the runway. I've learned this from personal experience.
Looked like not enough right aileron and maybe raising flaps too quickly. Hard to gage these by a video but I was a bit uneasy on his speed and the approach seemed a little flat. I kept trying to see an airspeed indicator while I was watching it and wondering what make airplane it was. One comment said Cardinal. Torque when he applied full power might have played in. I’ve had my share of do overs as well and I give this pilot a thumbs up for deciding go around and averting a wreck.
Same here - I could not see an airspeed indicator. Since he landed flat, he was most likely too fast, and didn't take time to flare before letting the mains down. The nosewheel is for taxiing, not landing. One trick I've heard which is great is don't try to land, try to fly down to 1 foot off the runway, and just hold it there, slowing down, moving the yoke back gradually. I think generally he needs more training.
Looked like he came in too fast and kept power on for too long. Also did a carrier landing without any flare, so landed way too fast, then made another critical error retracting the flaps too soon when going around. Probably needs to slow down the landing in his mind a bit, get the approach stabilized and bleed off some airspeed and flare before landing. Also, don't touch the flaps until you gain some airspeed and altitude, and retract them gradually, not all at once...
Approach speed is seriously about 20 knots too fast. I’m gonna venture a guess that his instructor can’t do a spot landing, either. Practicing landings is a waste of time if you can’t do slow flight , or climbs without losing altitude. Back to the beginning. You have to crawl before you walk. Also, this guy’s lameness, bogarting the pattern, made that jet miss his clearance window. Tool Of The Day.
Came in too fast and his control responses are too abrupt and panicked. If the winds are strong, I would use minimal flaps. Maintain 1.3xVso plus 10 kts. That would be 65kts in a C-172 with flaps set at 10.
Well below solo standard. Landing was fast with no appreciable hold-off. Results in a flat or nose first touchdown leading to the bounce cycle. It is impossible to bounce if speed is washed off in the flare with touchdown as the stall occurs. Literally impossible. These days poor instructing seems to teach fast approaches and bugger all flaring.
You're doing a fantastic job! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). What's the best way to send them to Binance?
Your channel is actually really good
Thanks!
seems like this rooted from not enough crosswind correction application, looks like crosswind from the right
I definitely agree with that.

Ive made a similar mistake but luckily it was before any of solos i put flaps up after power my instructor bailed me out
Are you an instructor? Good break down of the video. Well deserved sub. Thank you for the content.
Thanks, almost done with instructor training.

Hi, great video. What video editing software are you using to mix yourself within the flying video pls?

Rudder control was way out...
100%
What was his approach speed? What is the VREF for that airplane?
Can't tell but I'm thinking he is not using enough trim on his landing as well as coming in too fast.
You should provide links to the original videos you do voice overs for.
Thanks for the suggestion, I'll consider that for future videos!
Wadup doe fellow pilot 👊

Why would he be in such a hurry to retract the flaps? Just panic?
He thought by doing that he could gain air speed quicker.
If you slam the power off maneuver into your head, then it seems that go arounds become second nature to you

Never heard any stall warning. Too fast
did he land the plane?
Yes he managed to land safely.
No, he is circling around the airport for a few month now and trying to land every day 40 times... 😂
sorry... 😔
😂

This is obviously P.I.O.

Flying ain’t for everybody. This is piloting 101 gone bad. Pick another hobby.
