Two more letters you could add to your take off mnemonic are W and E. Wind - what's it doing and how will it affect our takeoff. And E - eventualities in case of engine failure during roll or on takeoff what will we do. But a lovely video with warts and all.
You are right :) they aren’t in the mnemonic (and clearly weren’t spoken in this video as you have made the comment), but they are important. Normally spoken out loud with a passenger or student on board, but I’ll try to make sure I say them for future videos when solo. Thank you.
Good Nz morning. Just found your channel, liked and subscribed. I'm subbed to another Uk channel, as well and view and dream a lot. Unfortunately, having experienced a heart event 10yrs ago, our CAA ruling won't allow me to get a medical. But I guess there's possibly a legal way to achieve this, with this aircraft type.?? So I'll keep on viewing and dreaming. Just a quick Q and A....are these aircraft idiot proof.? Asking for a friend. Thank you for sharing, and atb with your training. Cheers from down here in Nz.
No, they aren't idiot proof; whilst they are quite forgiving there are plenty of idiots who have seriously injured or killed themselves through mishandling the aircraft. Training ought to stop that but sometimes, sadly, some people either become overloaded or over confident, or simply decide they know better than their instructor. In the UK if you can hold a car licence you can pretty much get a licence to fly these. There are some conditions that require an air medical examiner to sign off (or not).
The entry price with the BMW Boxer Engine is £43k. You may want to add a radio and intercom to that, so another £500 say, but if you don't need one then you can get in the air for £43k. There are other options, such as the Instructor kit that I need, or changing fibreglass to carbon fibre, etc, etc. But a flyable machine is £43k.
@MicrolightTraining-vt8gv Ok thanks. I've not started flying yet. Only used a simulator. I'm definitely looking at learning. What is the cost of lessons and how many lessons before I'd be able to go solo?.
@@sackmagick Where in the world are you? If you are in the Uk then find a local school here (www.bmaa.org) and that is your best way forward. Nobody can estimate how long before you go solo, everyone learns at a different pace. Perhaps a better way of looking at it is that learning to fly is a journey, and its a journey to be enjoyed with each of its twists and turns rather than focussing solely on the destination.
Awesome. I love that you talk about flight information while you fly.
Cool video and lovely machine. Thanks for sharing.
Nice one Neil must admit do miss it.

Nice, it will be better if you attach the camera on the helmet, it will get rid of the wobble of the image.
How much does that cost to buy. Lovely colour. Just like my Kawasaki Ninja ZX9R.

@@MicrolightTraining-vt8gv I'll grab an hour flight to test my air legs :) Interested in a chat about NPPL - I'm local.
@@thedailypaddle Happy to meet up and chat about NPPL if we can agree a time :)
What's the range of your craft on a full tank?
The tank is 54 litres and I burn 12.3 litres per hour at 70 statute miles per hour. My bladder's range is a tad shorter :)
Крыло не очень 😂
Самое лучшее апогей блик
what would you prefer?

Stunning colour! Impressively short take off.
It has a very impressive take off performance
