- The benefits of slow flight practice.
Be WARNED, it is not Instructional video, I am not an instructor and most this techniques apply to the backcountry flying

flying can be awesome
If anybody else is intimidated to enjoy this type of flying, don’t be. I too was too intimidated. I watched all of Larry’s videos. I went to CC Pococks Bush school. I returned home, and had a whole new set of skills and confidence. I can’t stress it enough, Larry is correct. If you stay coordinated, you can stay out of trouble. What a wonderful channel.
A beautiful video about slo-flight. I love your videos. You are a wonderful stick and rudder pilot as well as one who knows the difference between airspeed and AOA. Not many of our brothers and sisters really do. Your videography is also first-rate.
Very good videos! Combination of footage and useful comments, real life, no risktaking, no macho stuff. Wish I was living and flying at your place. In Belgium nothing is allowed making flying sometimes boring….
Another excellent video, Larry. I like the hover taxi (slow flight in low ground effect on a long runway) because it gives the student extended time at the airspeed that the wing will begin to fly (the basic low ground effect takeoff) and the airspeed the airplane will quit flying (power/pitch deceleration in ground effect to touchdown slowly and softly on the exact desired spot. Hover taxi also mitigates the common error of bring a down wing up with coordinated aileron and rudder. Because aileron is too often the first control moved, adverse yaw sends the nose in the wrong direction. By keeping the centerline between out legs with rudder only, the anti-turn control, we automatically keep the wing level. No allowed adverse yaw away from centerline (a turn), no unwanted bank. Independent control of bank with aileron and direction of longitudinal axis with rudder (side slip) allows aileron use on short final to set the wing and keep it there. Otherwise, no aileron.
Another amazing clip! Thank you Larry! I get so much out of your content and experience! I will be practicing slow flight tomorrow. I know my shorts and softs will benefit greatly.
Slow flight is essential in understanding and feeling your aircraft. Should get more attention in flight training.
And stall recovery. When you have done it a few times there is nothing to be afraid of. You just have to know the limits.
One question? If you’re not doing this for a living or humanitarian resupply then why? Why risk everything for this? Are we that bored with flying we have to flirt with disaster now?
Very informative Video as usual! I will do some videos about the WT9 regarding slow flight. It is a bit different, as the Aircraft is usually very noseheavy and definetly has different characterisitcs than a cessna :)
At 7:07 you made a very important point that many flight instructors are not always aware of. All corrective maneuvers must be coordinated, no matter how small the corrections need be. If you need a rudder, then you also need ailerons and vice versa. Many pilots keep their feet flat on the floor because the corrections are tiny. All corrections require both controls.
All minutia maneuvers must be done with stick and rudder, in a coordinated fashion, no matter how small. The only exceptions are for intentional slips to a landing. IMHO.
Believe or not!!!! It's the most important lesson for pilots license.
Now that you've landed on a gravel bar, how is the take off?
3 to 5kts above stall speed looks hazardous if the wind drops.
Agreed, only do this in calm no wind conditions
Hey man! Those were some great landings..! I remember the first times flying slow and it made me nervous as hell.. But after a while I really like it! It's fun! I wish you were an instructor! My instructor! Hahaha have a great day today my friend and thank you for all the videos you make! Peace
Hi, I found a plane in a BARN !! A KIT FOX 4 super STOL. Owner passed away, and his daughter sold it to me $4,5oo with a trailer too. The plane is ready to fly just a minor engine repair. and a little skin to finish. I don't even fly !! and I bought a Plane ?
My wife told me you better get life insurance !! LOL !! Great videos I'm learning how to fly. I was thinking should I fly it ? OR
should I FLIP IT ?? thanks I will continue to learn the Flying Machines, and someday maybe I will fly it ??
Love that 170. Awesome video and even more Awesome flying skills sir.
The most underrated YT channel.
But the name should change to 170 now 😉
Great video Larry; lot's a good information here...it's important to get comfortable with flying on the edge of a stall.
Sending another of yours to air guy in Haiti. He operates a C-205. Serves about 8 strips around the country. Thank you. Enjoy your narration, but don't need the music. Best
Wonderful video thank you!
Your videos are amazing. I haven not heard you talk about how very smoothly and deliberately you use the controls in slow flight, obviously avoiding accelerated stall of the flight control surfaces during the back side of the power curve flight. Your cameras capture your smoothness.
I have seen Folks landing even before the runway around my area,because they fear the short field technique,,,If you control Speed you control any Airplane,,,if you dont control your speed the airplane Controls you
GREAT VIDEO! Destined to be a classic. Thanks for sharing. Subscribed.
Boa noite amigo assisto todos teus videos em q região voc voa sou brasileiro curiosidade q avião é esse com as cores da russia
what brand is your favorite aoa indicator with the mini-turn coordinator ? as a newly licensed pilot, your videos give me plenty of practice activities before trying anything off airport. thank you
Alpha Systems AoA, if you buy it thru me you can get a discount, mini slip is RC Allen, you can buy it at Aircraft Spruce.
@@motoadveBackcountry182 which AOA kit of Alpha is this ?
I want to learn flying my dream is to fly an aeroplane. I am in India and like your every videos
Thanks for your great videos ! Follower from Paraguay 🇵🇾
thank you
Thanks for you videos ! They are very informative and its so nice to watch those off-airport landings. 👏👏
Thank you very valuable for a new pilot. I’m going to take this with me
I noticed on this video You're aileron trims out. You have a right turn tendency in the airplane.
Low altitude fly avoid radar and can nearly goes anywhere only short distance at a time
I love your videos ..
Nice video, good camera work to support your views. Slow flight is any airspeed less than normal cruise. MCA (minimum controllable airspeed) is the configuration with all drag devices extended and whatever power is needed to maintain the stall warning device audible. MCA is when any further increase in pitch or decrease in power (if available) brings on the physical manifestation of a stall. Remember, with the wing stalled the rudder is still flying (ball centered).
It’s like dancing on the blade😬
Muy buen video, muchas gracias por la explicación, un fuerte abrazo
Do you find that slow landings can become more troublesome in crosswinds? Is there a method to compensate for crosswind or gusty landings while also doing it slow?
Amazing . I am in the begging. First maneuver which Instractor gave me it is “slow flight “
great day to start! Thanks for this
Great vid mate thanks.
Great job as always. Thanks
Awesome video!
Gorgeous scenery.
So Carlos and Richie, what do you think?
I had an instructor that had a slow flight method
At about 3 thousand feet he had me put on full flaps. Full power pull the nose until airspeed was zero and stall horn was blaring . From this position do a full 360 without a stall break
.
Continue from above. Had me do it both left and right. Found the C 150 would actually have a small amount of climb at sea level. Even with plane in stall condition.
10:02 we cannot hear what you are saying about this angle of attack instrument. Could you please give some more information in the video description.
The AoA indicator is more accurate than the airspeed indicator, compensates for weight and temperature
Awesome slow flights, I cant find the exact Alpha systems AOA device.. Can you kindly post a link here for viewers ?

I love your videos, but can you please find a way to make the stall horn quieter? When I turn it down enough to not have everyone in the room looking at me, I cant hear you talking :)
I think he should definitely remove the safety horn from his plane so the video doesn't disturb others on your house. I hope he sees this.
Wear headphones,/earbuds.
