This is so helpful. My dad was a pilot. He took my mom and I up when I was basically a newborn; he started paying for lessons when I was 14; and he dreamt of me flying for the military; but I was never really invested in it. He died 11 years ago and I really regret not paying more attention as a kid. Now at 36, I've decided to get my ppl. These videos are so helpful to refresh my memory on the lingo and instrumentation. Hope my instructor is as knowledgeable and clear in direction as you are!
That's great to hear. Good luck with your flight training. Sorry to hear about loosing your dad. Mine passed away when I was in my early twenties so I know the feeling.
Gotta love a good dad
Hi I m 34 now I decided
I have no experience, so it’s easy for me
@contemplativegirl21 your dad will be proud to know that you want to fly
I am a lot older than you And you have ancoureged me too to do something about it
I am a military flight instructor (helicopters) and it truly has been a pleasure listening to you instruct. I have always been pretty critical of civilian flight instructors because they lack that human touch and they forget that they were in the same boat sometime ago. You, sir, are an artist when it comes to flight instruction. Many CFIs could learn a lot from watching you.
You can hear his love of flying in every sentence. I'm about to take my first flying lesson, and this video series is helping calm my nerves.
How did it go
Same here lol. My first day is tomorrow.
@@jojobar5877 I got as far as soloing and then COVID stopped everything. Going to pick it back up eventually.
@@sysadmin9396 Congrats. I strongly recommend the book Stick and Rudder. It's basically the bible of flying and it helped me a ton.
@@MichaelRicksAherne Thanks I will definitely check it out! My first flight was amazing. I really need to get the rudder/pedal situation figured out. It was really hard for me to control the plane that way.
This is masterclass flying. Great Job Captain Scott!
roger that
I recently started taking flight lessons and I now have 3 hours under my belt, obviousy I still have a long way to go, but your videos really help me become more familiar with the plane and processes etc. Brilliant work! The way you explain everything so clearly is really helpful and the calmness of your voice makes it sound so easy. I'm really impressed, and I'm hoping to be just as confident flying the plane in some 20-40 hours.
I can’t explain how good this video is, it really shows how everything workings so simply.
been perusing utube for a few weeks, thinking about a ppl. you sir are a joy to watch and learn from. your passion and knowledge and calming words of instruction are priceless
kudos to you and your love of flying and more inportantly sharing your knowledge with the world
Great teacher cpt Scott. I'm rusty but love your video! Covered many important topics !
agree!
agree, I truly learned from watching captain Scott's videos. He is precise and to the point. so informative.
Your training is so clear and easy to understand.
I have student pilot licence. I have watched this video several times over. This gives a wealth of practical information of level and straight flight, banking, descent and climb.
After 10 hours, this video is so useful and instrumental in understanding the basics of flying, thanks Dr. Scott.
Lmao it’s Captain
I just wanted to thank you so much for this I started lessons and I was going in blind with no training or preface before getting into the plane the first 3 lessons. I did not understand anything the instructor said or told me. I have been so overwhelmed. I did not want to seem rude by asking questions. This has helped me make sense of everything that has been said now. This is a lifelong dream of mine to fly, I did not even think it was possible for me to be able to do it. I an fullfilling a dream at almost 60 years old. Do not ever stop dreaming or living. I can't wait until my next lesson this will make a world of difference
That's great you started taking lessons. I was the same way when I started flying, I had zero clue what the instructor was talking about. If you have any questions never hesitate to email me. If you do, go thru the website. Those come into my gmail...
Anyhow have fun....
You're like the cool uncle who takes you up in his plane and just has a conversation with you, rather than the "instructor". I love it!
I loved this, after my first flight lesson I truly did feel like my head wanted to explode and wondered "how I'm ever going to know all this.' I was severely overwhelmed. You validated my feelings which in turn encouraged me that I'm on the right path. So thank you for that!
Isn't it interesting how everyone's head almost explodes after their first flying lesson....but man the fun factor is certainly there as well....
Yeah that’s a good point, I already had 3 flight lessons and I feel so discouraged, I wish I had someone to tell me that is normal to feel overwhelmed and that with time everything is going to come together just fine. Sometimes all we need as students is not just the knowledge but also some words of encouragement… Some empathy. And he explains everything so clear and so well, my instructor just tell me to read the book and then expects me to be able to perform everything all together. He wants me to know all the procedures by memory, to do communications and the callouts and I wish he could just let me learn the basics of flying an aircraft first… He also gives me the controls and then notes what I am doing wrong, but he never explains what I am supposed to do and expect. It’s being very difficult. If I could wish for one thing is to have an instructor just like this, communicative and clear, and someone who could give me some assurance instead of putting me under so much pressure… I am now seeing this videos in hopes to lear how to do it, you know your instructor is not doing a good job when you have to go to UA-cam to get an understanding… 😞 Thank you so much for posting this videos, they mean a lot 🙏🏻🥺
This is the kind of instructor I would like to have as a CFI. The guy is a natural teacher. 😊
what a great video....what separates this video from most others: no ego issues, straight forward, gives an honest human perspective with the joy and the seriousness of flying coming through like a plane coming out of the clouds.
He is one of the best if not THE best instructors ever.
Oh man i really enjoyed this - you make it sound simple =)
Thanks for the video!
Mickey Bauer it is, the more you fly, the easier it gets😊
After logging .6 hrs and having gone up once and just finishing reading lesson #1 you are reassuring to me and so much help in this time of nervousness. Thank you so much!
Pure class
It is not a very difficult at all it’s look difficult but it’s not 😜
The way you talk and teach is much appreciated. Thank you for this extraordinary video. Best I’ve seen.
Feel the need to add my voice to all the others here. Thank you so very much for taking the time to make these. You do indeed have a gift for instruction, and you are using this platform to share your knowledge with so many. Great work, Captain Scott!
Phenomenal! I just had my first dual instruction for my PPL today and decided to watch some more videos to help me grow in all areas of the basics, and this video answered all of my questions in perfect clarity! Thanks you sir!
Best teacher on the internet ive found so far. Ty Capt Scott. You’re very thorough in your explanations and letting the viewer know what’s inside your thoughts. Appreciate it greatly. Looking forward to starting my private pilot career. :)
I hope I find an instructor like you sir, these videos help break the anxiety. Slow n calm, no rush just clear instructions. Thank you sir 🙏
Thanks my friend. I didn’t learn a lot when I was rushed. I had one instructor who was super laid back and explained stuff in normal words, not aviation speak. I learned a lot from that guy which is what I based my teaching method on.
These are the best instruction videos I have ever found for Cessna lessons.
I’ve watched tons of ppl content just trying to get a handle on what to expect and learn some of the technical aspects of flying. This series of videos gave me both and far and away more than anyone else’s have. Thank you Captain Scott!!
Hey AJ, The new websites open and has all the stuff on it you'll learn during your flying lessons. There's also a section on how to talk on the radio which is everyone's biggest fear. Good luck. askcaptainscott.com
thank you sooo much ,, yes im 53 and just have a new passion to get my ppl ,, you sir are a gentleman for sharing your awesome advice
Robbie Rockin same, but I’m 11
Am very happy to start my job.
You cannot work for airline, because you’re 53😜✌️ but you can fly for fun private 👍 good luck
Great video. Appreciate it. God bless you all! I’ll be in the air tomorrow afternoon for my 4th flight
Hello from Britain. Having always been interested in aviation but never been able to afford to learn to fly I really enjoyed your 2 tutorials on flying the Cessna. Your explanations on the controls, use of trim, & power settings was so informative & easy to follow.
That was essentially everything my discovery flight covered, but I also got to do a landing. Had I watched this before my flight, i would've been way more relaxed. I dig the way captain scott explained everything. Have my second flight tomorrow, and I can't wait!
Did you end of getting your license? -Rashard (Angela’s Husband)
@@AngRene7 nope, covid ended up ruining all of that. I also had some vision issues come up in my right eye, so I need to see if I can even pass the physical before I try again.
You are an amazing conveyer of knowledge...I am 59 and just looking at ground school...I hope I get someone as cool and calm for my instruction when the time comes...thank you soo much Captain Scott😎
Had my first flight lesson yesterday. This video really would have helped a couple days ago. I could not hear my instructor very well and this video helped a lot with explaining everything in more detail. Thank you!
Just completed ground school, 52 yrs old and being a PP has been a dream since I was 3 I'm finally doing it. The first flight videos were awesome because I recognized so much you were talking about before ever getting in the plane for the first time. Thanks great video.
Your empathy towards student pilots is, for lack of a better word, helpful. Hugely supportive! Thanks for the vids!
Why does it feel like my dad is teaching me how to fly? You rock, sir
You're cracking me up.
Captain Scott please continue to post more videos about flying. I find your lectures quite valuable and comprehensible. Thank you for all that you do. I truly appreciate the quality of your videos and do realize the efforts incorporated to produce such an incredible result. Just wanted to say THANK YOU.
Thanks man. I'm heading to the airport now to shoot more video's. I'm really glad you like them....
I discovered 310 Pilot and not being a pilot, I have lots to learn, you have the right videos for me. Thank you.
This is one of the best examples of flight instruction I’ve ever seen. You are a natural teacher and a natural aviator. Thanks so much for sharing these.
The clearest most thorough flight instructor! Thank you Captain Scott! The Fundamentals!
Just being able to fly is special. It’s great that you teach people to use power for altitude instead of just pitch, good habit to get into I think.
Very informative and you did alleviate alot of clutter when I think about flying.
I'm glad it was understandable
I love that I got to see this before my first flight. It looks very exciting
I LOVE THIS GUY-Ive been Flying for 30 years- AMAZING
one of the best videos I have watched for learning the trim and using power for climbing and descending.
I was taught that it's more efficient to scan from right to left.
The reason is that since one reads from left to right, it's easier for your eyes to skip or miss something, such is the natural, practiced flow your eyes normally would use while reading.
I was taught to scan from FAR RIGHT to near right, then shift focus to FAR MIDDLE and near middle, and finally from FAR LEFT to near left. Scanning from FAR first is useful because anything in your mid-range or close-range field-of-view would be easily noticeable.
Try it and you'll see; you will be acutely aware of much more detail by using this method.
You Sir are a great instructor. I just watched pt2 and now this episode. I’m here reminiscing what my father and I would do when he let me take the controls at the age of 15. We’d get up snap up the gear, and he’d let me get to heading, climb to altitude, trimming the plane and then practice coordinated turns; I ate it up. All in a Mooney Executive 21. Don’t know why I never got a license; I passed ground school while in High School. I guess I got distracted with other interests; girls and motorcycles. Lol. I sure miss it though.
Hi captain scot I have been watching your videos a lot I always wanted to fly a small airplane and thought I would have to be highly educated but I've learned recently it might be still possible. I'm 62 I'll be taking lessons soon I'm learning a lot from your videos you are so helpful I just hope I didn't leave it too late in my life to do it I really enjoy your videos thanks for doing them from Jim in ireland
Hey Jim. 62 is young my friend. I'm 61. Yes, go learn to fly. You'll love it. If you ever make it out to Seattle I'll take you flying. I'd like to head over and fly with you once you get your license. Stay in touch and let me know how your flight training is going. email me at askcaptainscott@gmail.com to give me an update. Good luck and have fun.
@@askcaptainscott thanks for your kind email and. The flying offer and hope some day to take you up on that offer it would be a privilege to sit along side you and share your knowledge with you I had a trial lesson to see if I liked it I haven't been able to to say I loved so I'm hoping to have a lot more that was my first time in an airplane looking at your videos helped me a lot not sure what the norm is but I was aloud to take control and fly the plane from the airfield to my home and back to the airfield it was a dream come true I watch your videos a lot you give great advice and detail my daughter and son-in-law gave me the voucher for the trial lesson at Christmas and I used it a month or so ago I'm just wondering can you spaced out the lessons or do you have to keep each lesson close to each other thanks again looking forward to more of your videos talk soon from Jim in Ireland
@@JamesmaguireMaguire Hey Jim, Thats great news. Keep me updated on your progress. Shoot me some pictures of your flight to 777captainscott@gmail.com
Thats really cool to hear you took a lesson.
I hope that you continue with these videos, I’m very interested in flying and appreciate all of the helpful information.
Great instructions! I am a retired private pilot and if people relate flying to riding a bicycle, it comes down to ‘balance’.
Awesome! 2 hours into flight school, and this was exactly what I needed to hear.
Excellent Capt. Scott, best instructor I've met in 15 years, I used to work at the Everett Boeing Plant and the Renton Boeing Plant, I'm in Virginia now really miss the Painfiejd Experience, etc,! Thanks Mr. Tracy Hyatt
Hi Scott. Yesterday I stepped into my first airplane as a discovery flight experience. It was a cesna Skyhawks and the exact model eludes me atm. But everything you said had me laughing because it was all true. I found myself focusing on the instruments too much and learned to look out the window more. My the grip was white knuckles and had to shake the blood back into them. But man the experience was absolutely incredible and now I find myself day dreaming of flying even more. Thx for the videos. I look forward to watching more of them.
Great Pilot and great teacher. As student Pilot I learn a lot from you the basic. Thank you so much Captain Scott 💎💎💎😊
Scan from left to right the eyes perceive information better that way.
So many gems of knowledge thank you sir
I felt stupid when I couldn’t do my right descending turn. You explained it so well and I’m hoping to do much better tomorrow. I appreciate the info, you explained it so well!
Just found you after quite a few years of flying flight sim on my computer! Your videos have helped me understand things that flight sim does not convey about real life flying. The first video of yours that I saw was the oceanic crossing in the 747. I was surprised to see you still have a flight engineer. I was under the impression 747s are a two man cockpit now. A good friend of mine was a 747 flight engineer with TWA many years ago and he took me out to the flight sim they used for their annual training at JFK. Your videos brought back some great memories!! Thank you captain.
I've been bite by the flight bug and been surfing UA-cam for the best informational flying videos. You've definitely produced the best that I've seen. interested in more!!
great video! i took a discovery flight last week as a birthday present to myself. i flew with Bryan at Anson Aviation in Sugarland, TX. i was taught the same things you saw on this video.
Are you going to start taking lessons....it's fun stuff
@@askcaptainscott the people at anson aviation recommended that i use King Air for my ground school so i paid them two days ago. between king , you and anson i'm confident i'll get that pilot license. i havent owned a car in over fifteen years. i ride a bike here in houston (the entire city is an average of 100 feet above sea level) a minimum of 25 miles everyday. the ride to the airport is 16 miles. on the day of the ride anson wanted to know if i wanted to postpone the flight because of the wind which was 15-20 mph that day. it was a headwind that i rode into. i told her what better day for a new pilot to fly on. i was really pumped up. after 15 minutes on the simulator we went up. he told me to bring my phone to take pics i had no idea he would let me fly it!! I told the CFI that not to worry about the "death grip" because captain scott had already warned me to not do it. proud of me!?😃 my father died four years ago days before he died at the age of 93 i asked him what is the one thing that he wanted to do that he never did. he said fly a plane....i have to get this done
I cant wait to start my training in October 2023 because I’ll be so prepared. Thanks Captain Scott 👨✈️
My CFI sucks, I just learned more watching this then I have learned in my two recently taken flights with my CFI. You explain things much much better. Thank you for this!
I learned more in the first few minutes than the last 3 videos I watched. Thank you!
As a ground pilot with only a discovery flight and a strong resolve to scrape up cash for training under my belt, I've watched many online training videos. I have to say that this video makes more sense and answers more of my questions than any other I've seen. Thank you for this and by all means keep it coming. I think you will be a great asset for those of us who have dreamed of flying and want take it happen. Thanks again.
Nathan Higgins Thanks Nathan. That's what I'd hoped this video would do. I had so much "bad" flight training over the years I wanted to put something together that actually covered the information, not just blast through it without some detail like a lot of the flight training I've had. The video's I'm shooting now are even more detailed so it's easier to understand this stuff. ..Glad you liked it.
I went up for a trial lesson in a piper Cherokee and the Instructor was using the trim, which looked like a car handbrake, but i wasn't sure what it did, he was using it on the final approach, and you explained it very well, i now understand what its function is. I can tell you are a first class instructor, you have a new subscriber. I think you have inspired me to take a course of lessons, thanks for that.
BenGunns In a Piper Cherokee, the long handle is for setting flaps. Usually 1 notch has abeam the numbers, one more on base leg and last notch on final approach.The trim wheel is on the floor between the seats, and is a wheel like the one shown by Capt. Scott.
Considering a lesson or two myself to overcome small remaining fears. Thanks for clear information without trying to baffle brains with bull! Lot of other pilot trainers would do well to take notes from Captain Scott.
Captain Scott I love your videos! One day I plan on taking flight lessons and I watch a lot of you tube videos to gain basic knowledge in hope of when I start I'm not overwhelmed. You explain things so clearly that it's easy to understand. Keep up the good work!!
What a great video to watch! Even if you aren't planning on getting your pilot's license, this video is a pleasure to watch. Excellent job Captain Scott on the instruction and the video production. I am so thankful for UA-cam, especially since there is nothing but crap on TV anymore!
Best tutorial on UA-cam period. I love your way of teaching and explaining things, I wish you were in Massachusetts to learn with you as my PPL instructor next spring.. keep doing these videos they are amazing!
This guy is a great instructor! He does an excellent job of explaining everything in laymen’s terms! He doesn’t assume you know anything; he explains everything and I love that! Plus, he just seems very knowledgeable and low keyed. I really appreciate and enjoy his lessons!
wow amazing. im looking to start my pilot training next year. Im 36.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge! I'm 56 and beginning my journey in obtaining my ppl.
@Jehan Ghouse Congratulations!
Your videos are so top notch and reinforces all I learn in the air with my CFI.
Wish all flight instructors had the ability to communicate this clearly. Great video, I learned more in this video than 10 hours in a 172.
You are a great teacher Captain Scott!
Hello Scott everything look so simple with I which you are my instructor for my ppl.
Well hopefully we can fly together someday. Good luck with your training. It's fun stuff.
I am just starting out. Got my 4 hours flight training in while studying for ground test. I am just not getting the take-off and rudder control. My instructor is a good friend, but it's like studying calculus in college, you need other books to see which instructions click. Yours is very nicely done. If you were close to Dallas, I'd take a few or more lessons from you. Thanks.
Dude, you’re awesome. I’m a new student pilot and your videos are super helpful.
Good demeanor. I like the 300' before pattern altitude before you make your crosswind (a lot of CFIs don't teach this), and right rudder during takeoff roll thru the entire climb, to compensate for Left Turning Tendencies. You remind me of my initial PPL CFI. Calm cool and collective. You explain the WHAT, WHY and HOW. Essential teaching method. Thanks for sharing this video.
I was really intimidated before, but watching your lessons really helped a lot. Thank you, Captain!
Such good videos. I’m really pleased. I have an exam tomorrow, but I’m unable to stop watching your videos. Please make more videos!
Very clear what to do
Mate, had a 152 and just flew it, but now im looking to buy a 172 these tipas are just brilliant, thanks, heaps valuable/
Excellent job of explaining things in a calm manner and taking time to explain the important stuff. I've seen instructors that intimidate and frighten their students even yelling at them at times. That is not a way to promote aviation and to instruct with real learning and retention in mind. You have it down pat and I wish more instructors would follow this example of teaching. Well done Captain Scott.
Amazing in depth explanation. Perfect for us student pilots.
@@andean796 tanks man. I'm glad you liked it.
i just found your channel randomly but i love your training already after watching couple... amazing training skills
Yes, I am watching your videos to learn to play Microsoft Flight Sinulator 2020. Thanks for the help with trim wheel use.
Ya Im glad that video helped. Its frustrating flying FlightSim around while your out of trim and the nose always wants to point up or down....Trim helps...
Captain Scott, I'm watching all these for the second time prior to commencing my flight training. Your channel is THE best on YT, absolutely hands down winner -thank you SO much!
You are one of the best teachers of any subject I have encountered!
Just took my introductory flight. I will watch every single one of your videos. You make it look so simple.
Captain Scott, first time watching your videos, what an excellent video and you truly portray your experience in this video, I work for Boeing in Tukwila and at 49 I decided to fulfill my lifelong dream to learn how to fly, I’m a bit old but I never shook off the desire and the dream so here I go next week will start at Galvin in Seattle, I am very nervous but very excited, I will watch your videos and absorb as much as I can so I can be a good pilot, thank you for sharing your expertise thru your videos!.
Cheers,
Alfredo Sauri
That's great to hear. 49 isn't old in this business these days. I leaned how to fly at Galvin too. Many, many, moons ago...Good luck with your flight training..
You're a wonderful instructor. Thoroughly enjoy how you're explaining the steps through a VFR flight. And you're so right, after my first flight lesson in a 172 I did feel like my head was going to explode. I came home and collapsed on my bed because my brain was overloaded with so much new information. Nothing on terra firma prepared me for flying an airplane. But with each lesson it gets better and better. And a great instructor is a big, big help. Yes, never stop learning. I've subscribed to FLYING magazine for 30 years. Lots of great tips and important safety lessons make for good reading and sage advice.
Hahaha, I just saw your post. Ya,flying lessons will tax your brain. It still happens to me when I do the sim every six months. How's your flight training going. Its fun stuff, isn't it....
I am working on my CFI training and your way of teaching inspired me a lot. Thanks very much
Thanks Cap Scott. I'm not a pilot, not even planning to be but I love all your videos!
Go take a couple lessons. You'd love it.
Very helpful. I have been making an attempt to get my license for years. Thank you sir.
I have very bad habits of staring constantly inside the cockpit and not trimming the aircraft properly. This video has been very informative and I will be practicing the techniques from this video!
I have so much less fear about learning how to fly. YOU are my teacher. You explained things so well. I have just watched the first two videos. I feel I might be able to do this. Being a teacher myself I've always tried to take the fear out of learning, especially in clay. As mentioned below from Big Rip: You sir are a joy to watch and learn from. I feel your passion and your able to bite size your knowledge and your voice keeps me from panicking! Thank you so much. I'm in...
Hello Sir I am so glad I landed on your channel, I fly on my simulator at home, I have a dream to become a pilot, and just by watching your video a learned so much. THANK YOU. I am a 50 year old guy and like I said my dream is to become a pilot.
Thank you again. I'll keep watching your videos.
Respectfully
DS
53 and 30 hrs into my ppl. Go for it
@lctalbot Have you made it finally?))
excellent video on how to learn to fly a fixed wing aircraft ! i am going to watch these 2 videos a few times so I can learn new things and improve my knowledge ! and I am a 70 year old senior citizen !
I have been watching a lot of videos as I am going to start flight school. I love you video series the best. Thanks Captain Scott!
Again, thanks a lot Captain Scott for these videos. Very informative and I felt like I was flying next to you. Keep up the good work.
Excellent instructor. Need to save up for my ppl now! Thanks from the UK
Great video! I’m 46 and doing my first flight tomorrow. Looking forward to more flying.
I could watch this over and over again. You make it sound easy.
I love your content Captain, thank you for sharing and explaining. Greetings from Istanbul
