I know, right? Perfect speed, no trying to be the next Robin Williams, clear and concise instructions, and everything related to practical understanding of basic principles that are easy to understand. Where the hell was this guy when I was in school?!
I've had these instruments explained to me by my instructor, by at least three different books, and by Sporty's Online Ground School and this video is the best explanation I've ever seen. Thanks guys!
Why is at video 4:41, when you turn the knob clockwise, the needle goes counter-clockwise, isn’t ALT supposed to indicated clockwise when you turn clockwise on the knob ? But in video it show opposite?…
@@reponrepnation3004 No. Imagine the local Mean Sea Level pressure is 30.02"; 1" difference = 1000'. The standard atmosphere which is used in the US above 18,000' is 29.92", and is referred to as FL 180 (to indicate use of the standard datum) In this case the datum zero is 100' above sea level. If you freeze time and instantly turn the knob clockwise to reach 29.92" the pressure indicated in the window will decrease 0.1" and the needle will go anticlockwise by 100'. So if the local pressure is greater than standard, the true altitude is greater than that indicated, and vice versa.
ERAU = Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. They started as a flight school with their roots in the 1920's (still active), but they are a STEM-oriented University with many other degree opportunities other than traditional pilot. Many graduates go on to work in Aviation related industries. Fun fact, JFK learned to fly at Embry-Riddle.
You are talking about bad school. We have additional classes for children (13+) in Russia, children learn all this. Not so beautiful and technologically advanced, on a marker-board, but we give them this information.
Very good. It helped me as I was planning to make a paper airplane with paper cabin, cockpit, controls, and working paper engines. It helped me to know/learn more about aviation too.

I don't think I've ever left a UA-cam comment but this has to be one of the best videos I've seen that describes everything perfectly. Thank you so much!
What a superb video! This one is really brilliant in terms of explanations to the point, animations and focusing on what's important! You really nailed it, thank you so much for it! ☺️

I'm watching this wonderful video, just one day before writing my Aircraft Instruments test! I have to thank you for your wonderful explanation of concept! Good job! ❤️❤️
This takes me back. Years ago I had to animate an altimeter for the RNZAF, for student pilot training. Being given schematic drawings and being asked to produce a working animation is always a great learning experience, and prompts a lot of research. What's not mentioned is the amazing and minute planetary gearbox that allows the needle to rotate so much relative to the tiny amount of movement generated by the expanding and contracting wafers.

Very informative. It was very good to know airspeed also works WITHOUT fluid unlike I learned in engineering school. Always questioned how leaking issue would be handled in aerobatic flights.

@@reponrepnation3004 If it's not standard then it isn't. My alarm clock turns the other way around too when I set the time. That's not safety relevant, sure. But I guess you'd notice what's going on.
In 1996 , a maintenance worker of areoperu covered pitot static ports of a 757 with duck tape and forgot to remove it which caused a deadly crash .. no one survived
I though of the acronym “CLAPS VAA” to help me remember this. “CL” is calibrated leak and goes with v (vsi), “A” is aneroid wafer and goes with a (altimeter), “PS” is pitot static and goes with a (airspeed). All you have to remember is that the last a is airspeed since it’s the only instrument that uses the pitot tube. Hope that helped!
This is an amazing video. If you ever wanna be a pilot, this will help you better. The school does not teach as this video. I love all the videos that present by ERAU.
Perfectly visualized and explained! Great work, thanks a lot. I have a question about the speed indicator though. When the dynamic pressure compensates for the density decrease at higher altitudes what is the difference between indicated and true airspeed then (no wind assumed)? Thanks in advance to anybody that knows the answer!
The best video explaining about plane's instruments. Period.

This was a great video for All -
from a pilot with over 25,000 hrs of flight time.
more technical and detailed information here than in flight schools.
YOUR FACE and it’s free!!!

I came here right after ground school basic aircraft instruments class to learn here. Much simple and better!
@@GoodVrGames In Soviet Russia, road forks you
I never wrote a comment. But the knowledge and the professionalism that you are sharing with us, deserves a big THANK YOU!
but but but - maybe i want to hug my sensitive altimeter once in a while?
Jokes aside stunning video - great explanation!
4:20 Somebody had to animate that lol
@Jeffrey Simmons oh grow up, it was funny
@@insertnamehere6659 exactly
Somebody GOT to animate that
time stamp makes sense lol
just a ridiculously good video - no one does it better than these guys
Great video! I'll hug my altimeter anyway...
I'm sure it would appreciate that! It is sensitive, after all.

Best video I’ve seen so far to explain this while also showing the mechanics within the instruments.
Much better explained than CFIs. Great video!!
I paid for Sporty's, and used it only as a test prep, hated it, quite frankly. But learned stuff here. Thank you guys! Awesome job!
4:17 that was totally unexpected and pretty hilarious :-)
literally if there's a collection of these videos to buy I definitively would. This is the best CBT ever made so far. Take my money!
This channel makes some of the best, easiest to understand aviation videos hands down
These videos are some of the most helpful ones of UA-cam, thank you!
Top notch work! Thank you so much for providing this. It has really helped me understand how these instruments work.
Holy wow. This is the best channel ive found. Thank you finally i can understand this
Im studying for my PPL right now, and this video helped me understand the concept more clearly then ever before! thanks for the help :)

Best video
This is the best explanation available on UA-cam.
a very informative video and the animation is nicely done. Thank you!
Hands down the best damn UA-cam channel that covers this topic. This is better then ground school it’s self !
These are amazing videos. Thank you.
Absolutely amazing video. So easy to understand with the aid of fantastic animations. I’d love to see more!
AngusHF Thanks so much! Glad we could help. Enjoy our other videos....we’ve got hours of content!
Thank you so much. You made my learning so much easier!!
Excellent guide and graphical presentation, thank you!
The animations in these videos are superb!
Not a pilot, but I always wondere how these indicators worked without any electronics. Really nice and comprehensive explanation!
