IFR is a whole different game. Flying in IMC is an amazing experience. Once you've got the skills and hone them to be ever better, you find you're playing the coolest video game of all time. Well done, AKW. You're jammin'.
Thanks Mad Props, I feel like a real pilot now. Last week was such an amazing flight. I’m so happy I have the footage for my 1st ever RNAV approach. This marks an incredible achievement in my pilot journey. Currently editing Hudson River exclusion. Another major milestone. Let’s do this, full power!
@@johndefini3732 thanks for watching, should have the Hudson NJ route up by Friday. Lovely home field. Beautiful runways. I’m going to put up a departure video soon of 28. Was not planning to land here but Mother Nature…needed a place to turn on my GoPros for the Hudson. $30 landing fee to use the restroom 🚽.
@@reyesben I’m at 180 and it was my 1st time. Try it with a CFII, in actual IMC for at least an hour. Took me 45 mins to figure out how to fly again. Without autopilot
Love the content! This flight aside, the last couple of months in Connecticut have been outrageously good for flying, you must be loving it. Please keep the interesting videos coming!
@@davemagick6739 thanks so much, it’s good to hear you are enjoying the channel. Comments like this are what drive me. I absolutely have been blessed with aviation back into my life especially this year. I am making up for lost time. Will keep the content coming your way! Have an awesome election week!
@@therustypilot3452 Thanks, I’m using Corel Video Studio Pro 2023. Took about 5 months to get into my groove. The editing on the last video was about 10 hours.

IMC conditions are defined by visibility, cloud ceiling, and distance from clouds that are below the minimums for visual flight rules (VFR).

What great training! I’ve still never done anything like that and I have 200 hours. Love the video and the inserts.

What does flying IMC mean? Is it like IFR? Sorry, I just don’t know.

My 1st Instrument Approach. I was devoting 100%of my attention to flying the aircraft as Jeff was working the radios and navigating. 🧭
