One of the best explanation out there,
Thank you and keep up with the good work.
I really enjoy your videos - thank you
A very good video. This is one of the topics that I have been waiting for.
One question: How do I calculate the pressure altitude with mbar, instead of inHg?
This video is very helpfull, many thanks for sharing it. May I ask is there a website for europe with the temperatur difference?
So helpful!!!
Hi, I've enjoyed a lot you video and explanations. Very detailed in deed! Thanks for you effort and good work! It's have being difficult to find the wright temperatures at various altitudes! I am aiming at central america specifically! Can you advise any good site to find this info? By the way some of your links don't work anymore! - expected after 2 years :-)
Hey man! One question, contingency fuel is not 5% of the trip fuel?
Great video btw!
I guess that depends about the country you're doing the flight plan or the airline, not all use the saem percent for the contingency fuel
Make a video on ELT and weight and balance
Uploading weight and balance right now :)
