Love the way you instruct. Very patient, clear and concise. And you never seem to get frustrated with your student, or, if you do, you don't show it. You make your student feel comfortable and you always give them kudos when they do well and point out deficiencies without talking down to them. Those are the trademarks of a great instructor. Nice job.
@@nitdiver5 I mean, while you’re right that being filmed does make you act different or be more mindful because you want people to see you as a good person, I’m sure even off camera he’s chill. I mean on camera the student looks comfortable so off camera she must be too.
@nitdiver5 did you not see where there was an instructor got himself and his student killed. He was filming his student posting on snapchat talking about his student like a dog. They were doing night cross country and went into storm
Thank you Chris for your instruction videos 65 year old student pilot I love the landing instructions with cross winds and rudder control and thanks to Sienna for sharing her student pilot journey!!! These videos are gold to this student pilot 😎
Landings were definitely the hardest part of my training. Took me about 30+ landings on repeat and one day I had the light bulb moment where it all ‘felt’ right. Really feeling out the aircraft and the winds really helped me perfect the landings and also maintaining a proper approach. Great video! “Pitch for airspeed, power for altitude”
My first solo the other day was a bit rough. First two landings were good. On the third I floated a bit over the runway which is normal. But I have a natural habit of wanting the aircraft to touch the runway so I slightly pushed the stick down which caused me to porpoise. Did a go around but unfortunately the prop got scraped a bit. I just have to move on and learn from it
So accurate, same for me... it's basically the same thing but I used "trim for speed, power for altitude" just cause when I was learning I would forget about the trim cause there's so much going on
@@Adam-hx1gw you’ll get there for sure. Just be patient and don’t force it. If it’s a bad approach or doesn’t feel right, keep doing the go around. There’s a good youtube video that breaks down “the flare” when you begin to see the runway markers become blurry. Practice a steady approach speed and ensure your touch down spot remains steady in your windshield. Once you enter the flare, gently raise the nose, kill most of throttle to prevent floating, and as you feel it begin to sink, keep adjusting the nose gently upward until touch down. Easier said than done, but you got this!
@@ronanbailey-gallo263 that’s actually pretty smart; I usually just rely on the yoke for my pitch and make very small adjustments to the trim. I definitely will give that a try and see how it goes!
I’ve enjoyed watching Sienna progress through her lessons. Its been good review for myself at the same time. Sienna appears to be getting alot more comfortable with everything. Neat to see the progression….👍
I really love the views & angles in your videos! My landings are finally starting to get so much better, but like you said, the crosswinds are the tricky part. Getting there soon though! Great job to Sienna!
What a surreal place you fly from! You're living the dream there. Lovely Aircraft, Great views and great content! Contender for top aviation UA-cam channel!
Love your videos. I am currently working on my landings and pattern work. I haven’t had to deal with crosswind landings very much, but Sienna did a great job! Gives me motivation!,
almost always some sort of crosswind even if its slight, leaving the airplane neutral during final approach and lined up, if the nose is pointed left wind is from the left, during flare and transition apply required right rudder to hv your wheels aligned, and left wing down, most likly you will land left main first
@@footyworldfc7964 As mentioned above this has always been a point of argument, but In my mind, pitch for speed and power for altitude makes the most sense. At least in low powered pistons that we all learn in it does. Think about being on final and you are shooting for say 65 knots. You have it all trimmed up and notice you are high. If you pitch for altitude you would have to push the nose over and the air speed would increase unless reduce the power. If you use power for altitude you would just reduce power the airspeed stays the same (because you are trimmed for that airspeed) and the aircraft descends. You are only making one adjustment to accomplish the same thing.
@@kevinbaslee3262that makes sense but I think it works both ways pitch for both altitude n speed n power for both altitude n speed they both work together n which is used for wat depends on the specific situation when flying
Love the way you instruct I wish my instructor was like this. He’s very strict and tough and rarely gives kudos and has a short fuse. I wish he was more comforting but I also know that if/when I get a tough DPE I will hopefully be able to handle it better due to having to deal with my instructor.
Hello Chris and (student pilot Sienna) from Sydney Australia. Q1. What I have learnt from the video; Clear concise radio transmission of position and intention, then having the plane in a perfect precision approach after turning into the final; * C. G U.M.P.S * Check wind sock (indicator of wind speed and direction) * KIAS * Maintenance of centre line * Correct for cross wind; and your focus on the touchdown point. * After landing and rolling into taxiway another radio transmission stating your tail number is "clear of the RWY". 🌏🇭🇲
ER doctor looking for a retirement gig. I’ve been flying, about 800 hours now with IR and commercial done. I’m about to turn 60. I dream of going part time in the ER and getting my CFI to teach. I want to do what you’re doing! Teaching someone to fly, to realize that dream, sounds wonderful! Way better than handling medical emergencies, which I’ve done for many years.
i’m currently training to become an AMT and still have around 2 years left. I was thinking of trying to get my pilots license for private/personal use afterwards. hopefully i can get a patient instructor like you🙏 thank you for the great video
@@angleofattack great video. Can you please share how did you manage to get your audio so clean. Which kind of recording setup do you have? Thanks a lot
yayyy excited for this video! started doing circuits (think I'm like only at just over an hour doing them altogether) and landings I've always been scared of, and my instructors are making me do them more by myself now with no imput lol so I'm nervous lmao. Gonna watch this though! and hopefully learn some tips from someone new :)
Ya know, just when you thought you knew everything there was to learn when it comes to the operation of a single engine prop plane, there's a whole new "chapter" to learn. The different go-pro views DO help, but its just not the same without being in the cockpit with your hands on the yolk. Nonetheless though, you DO learn some stuff. Always look forward to the new videos Chris, keep em coming!
Just curious, why backtaxiing on the right side of the runway? Because of that manouver of clearing before the other traffic took off, or for increasing the visibility of your aircraft to other traffic on the pattern?
Landing is definitely tough... that's been my biggest hurdle so far. I'm about 22 hours in and landings have been the hardest thing for me. Especially since the airport I fly out of is small with a very slim and short runway. Makes it even more challenging. Hopefully it starts to click better for me soon. Thanks for the content, I enjoy your videos
I struggled as well, hang in there, i'm in my 50's and I took far longer than most, but so worth it when the instructor gets out, tells you to do one solo circuit and do not fly off anywhere
That makes things much more challenging. There's a small airport by me that only has a 2300 foot runway, obviously no touch and go's can happen there! I once saw a twin prop aircraft take off out of there. He needed almost every last bit of that roughly 2000 feet to get airborne. Was definitely something to watch. At this airport, you get to learn how to taxi from one end of the field to the other, then full power takeoff again. Thankfully there's a small taxiway that parallels the runway so you don't have to worry about back taxiing. Then, in addition, there are noise abatement procedures you need to follow, as you are taking off over a subdivision depending on the direction of departure. Then, you need to worry about wildlife, if any. There are deer that roam around in the area by the airport, and even though I haven't seen any myself, I've been told by others they've seen groups of deer in proximity of the airport.
@ChrisMeuzelaar1 I'll be 43 in a couple of weeks (July 4). I took a discovery flight about 12 years ago and just had not gotten to signing up for lessons due to cost and just life in general. I guess when you get older you get more stable in life and finances, that's why you primarily see old guys driving brand new Corvettes lol. But being older definitely seems to make it tougher to grasp quickly. I feel like if I had started 10-20 years ago I'd be picking things up easier. But I'm in it too deep to quit now, so I'll just keep plugging away no matter how many hours it ends up taking me
@Bob-KWX The runway at my airport is similar .. it's 2800 ft x 60 ft and is right next to a subdivision of houses. No taxiway, have to back taxi and there's definitely a lot of birds. No deer so far, but touch and go's are challenging if you're struggling with landing like I have been. I'll keep working on it, hopefully it'll click for me soon
@@flying_pig4243 That was pretty much my story as well, my dad died when I was 16, had a farm to save, family and money to worry about. I found UA-cam aviation videos like this channel, MzeroA, ERAU Special VFR and The finer points really helped. I feel it gets harder as you get older too, but having said that learning to fly is hard serious work! Best of luck and glad you started 10 years sooner than me :)
Took me awhile to understand - why I need to apply rudder on Opposite cross wind direction. You actually need to turn into the wind with the ailerons and apply opposite rudder to correct the nose - it's so not intuitive :) Good luck with the solo!
Really need to make your crosswind corrections sooner… even with… and especially for students. Why wait til you’re over the runway?… Give her more time to align with the runway, and on the center stripe.
I love you Videos. I will be 68 in a few weeks and I've been wanting to take flying lessons for years. But, never really had the time or money. Now that I'm retired and have the money I'm strongly considering now is the time to begin my lessons. I have learned a lot watching your videos. I hope I can find a good instructor like you. I wish I could take lessons from you, but we are a little to far apart. I live in L.A (Lower Alabama). Now that I'm retired, I would like to take lessons 3 or 5 or more days a week. How many days a week do you recommend someone take lessons?? Thanks and Keep up the Great work. It looks like you love what your doing. Thanks Again for you Videos!!..
Awesome video!! as an instructor have you ever had anyone have problems with being sick or feeeling really bad? If so do they get over it or is it just something where you can either fly or you cant?
First of this Chanel I’ve seen, good filming, good sound, good editing and fantastic scenery! I don’t like the instructor hovering over the controls and making inputs unnecessarily though.
Landings are the most difficult because it requires energy control and knowledge of the aerodynamics, feel and fight the impulse to touch the nose down first. Most of it is muscle memory and you can only build that after many landing tries.
One thing puzzles me. I flew FUJIs, C172, AT3 and mostly flying Katana (DV20) now and doing a circuit at 500ft my speed is at around 80kts and I never put down flaps before I turn base. I see she is flying the downwind with a notch of flaps down. Is there a specific reason for this?
I love the Cessna plane and its a pretty good plane i am flying in video games it is very realistic evrything is same i do that becouse i am scared to do it in real life and i cant afford flight lessons.
I don't understand why its called Landing isnt easy, looks like every landing was nice. Am i missing something? Great video this would be a dream for me, fly myself up and down in a plane just wow. Great video.
Landings are difficult. You have to manage your airspeed and altitude/glide path as well as keeping nose pointed straight in a crosswind. Watching someone else and doing it yourself are completely different. I am basically ready for my solo. Last lesson, I did really well with landings after watching a video here. Also winds were calm which helps a lot for a student.
I love your videos and this series has given me the itch to get my license. However, your latest videos have had a very noticeable screech in the audio. Unfortunately this means I'm unable to watch them because it hurts my ears.
As someone that wants to become a pilot, talking to the ATC's sounds like the most difficult part. I do not understand the terminology at all, and I couldn't imagine how bad it would be to become confused at a major airport when you don't understand what's being said.
For one, you would never be at a major airport and NOT know how to do the radio communications to begin with? I always thought that was the hardest part too, but now I can do that fine, but landings are a whole other story? 😳😬
Im not being sarcasric or something, just curious. Why do you have the quadratic equation and sin∅ = opp/hyp in the thumbnail? Are all those required while fkying or did you add those to make the thumbnail look cool? Just curious
Incredible positive vibe, I have to admit. Question: God forbid but if you had an engine quit when over the water what would you do? I’m not sure of your altitude and not a pilot myself so just curious.
i’d imagine either put it in the water or attempt to glide back to the runway depending on altitude i’m sure this could glide for a ways, being as light as it is
She’s getting there!! My 16 year old has 2 solos under his belt. He’s at 21-22 hours. First two solo’s he’s done regular stalls and turns then some short field takeoffs and landings.
5:25 ... pulling that power out ... but she is pulling the Carb Heat ... You cut away to the outside while you addressed this. Would have been better to keep it as a learning opportunity... I remember doing that same thing many times until I flew the 172 we had that was fuel injected..
Love the way you instruct. Very patient, clear and concise. And you never seem to get frustrated with your student, or, if you do, you don't show it.

Man, I appreciate my CFI don’t get me wrong but I love the way you teach. Your students are very, very lucky.
🎉 that's some really clear instructions. I felt that
I have transitioned from a high wing to a low wing...same principles but seems like we have to be more smooth on low wings.

Well, now I'm invested in Sienna's journey. It really makes me want to start this process as well.
Thank you for this video, I have a habit of flairing too early. Watching this a couple of times made me realize a few things.
I wish you taught in the lower 48

Proud of her. I don't know you guys but rock on! Nice
You wrote she was ambitious, but she doesn't seem so. Just quietly progressing with her competence. Lovely smile too.
Ambition isn’t ego in my eyes. Someone can be quietly confident and still be ambitious.

Cool pink glasses, Sienna 😎
Awesome video
What kind of retractable shoulder harness do you use?
Thanks
I went flying on Sunday and after all these years I still have the skills.
keeping the nose straight and using that rudder is always the hardest part on landing! (for me at least)

What runway is this and where
Homer, Alaska
Learning how to understand the energy you have, and then manage it, just takes time. Once you've mastered energy, landing becomes very simple.

6:20 is there a light echo in the audio?
Hey Chris, are you going to Oshkosh this year?
Just curious, why backtaxiing on the right side of the runway? Because of that manouver of clearing before the other traffic took off, or for increasing the visibility of your aircraft to other traffic on the pattern?
Those shades have become your signature looks. 😎
How many hours does Sienna have at this point?
I can't wait to try this someday. I'm currently trying to pay off my car loan and a few other things, but once that's done, I'll be flying.

She didn’t. She did go to school and wasn’t able to finish. We but have much more to come.
Which airport are you based out of?
How many more hours to go ?
when can i start taking lesons
Remember, take-offs are voluntary, landings are not.
I know we're all here for the flight videos (myself included) but what's the SONG during taxi? Absolutely slaps.

As someone that wants to become a pilot, talking to the ATC's sounds like the most difficult part. I do not understand the terminology at all, and I couldn't imagine how bad it would be to become confused at a major airport when you don't understand what's being said.
For one, you would never be at a major airport and NOT know how to do the radio communications to begin with? I always thought that was the hardest part too, but now I can do that fine, but landings are a whole other story? 😳😬
Every $5 learning flying, $4 on learning landing 🤣
Can any1 tell me the name of that plane
Cessna 152 Skyhawk
Im not being sarcasric or something, just curious. Why do you have the quadratic equation and sin∅ = opp/hyp in the thumbnail? Are all those required while fkying or did you add those to make the thumbnail look cool? Just curious
Not at all. We were just focusing on a good thumbnail. I wouldn’t know the quadratic equation even if I saw it.
Incredible positive vibe, I have to admit.
Question: God forbid but if you had an engine quit when over the water what would you do? I’m not sure of your altitude and not a pilot myself so just curious.
i’d imagine either put it in the water or attempt to glide back to the runway depending on altitude i’m sure this could glide for a ways, being as light as it is
She’s getting there!! My 16 year old has 2 solos under his belt. He’s at 21-22 hours. First two solo’s he’s done regular stalls and turns then some short field takeoffs and landings.
Hey I really want to become a pilot.
5:25 ... pulling that power out ... but she is pulling the Carb Heat ... You cut away to the outside while you addressed this. Would have been better to keep it as a learning opportunity... I remember doing that same thing many times until I flew the 172 we had that was fuel injected..
Looks like throttle to me. Not sure what you're seeing. Carb heat is to the right of the mixture on this particular plane.
@@imzanky6321 oh that is the ignition??? To the right??
@@LesOReilly From left to right it's Throttle, Ignition, Mixture, Carb Heat, Primer
I didn’t realize how often one would trim the aircraft.
I’m not a pilot…maybe someday.
