The New Airplane Flying Handbook is out, and I have created a new flight maneuver series for you to refresh on your flight maneuvers. Throughout this series, I will discuss Steep Turns, Slow Flight, Stalls, and much more.
In today's video, I am going to review Steep Turns. We would love you to share how you are doing with steep turns with us in the comments below.

Hey Jason, i still watch these videos even after they helped me pass my check ride last June! The examiner was impressed with that trick

I talk about Jason in my own flights with my CFI as I get close to "solo time" which I'm sure they love. lol But I love J's clean-cut, confident, simplistic manner. I try to take on the same level of composure when I fly. It doesn't work. (yet) haha Nice job, Jason. I'm a fan.

My CFI recommended 2 rolls of the trim wheel when he introduced me to steep turns. Didn’t understand why as he didn’t explain it. I was confused as to why I needed it, and just held the turn with the yoke, like a n00b. This helped a ton.

I did my first flight as a student pilot today and man do you make that look easier than it is. I'm doing maneuvers in the SIM tomorrow before doing them IRL in a few days. Figured I would use YT university to get some extra guidance outside of my training materials. I can't wait until I can control the plane effortlessly as you just showed. Subbed!

Awesome. Coincidentally my instructor asked me to review steep turns, stalls, slow flight, and engine out procedures for a practice flight tomorrow morning. I've completed all my requirements for PP and am brushing up for a checkride. Perfect timing and a new concept of dialing in trim in the maneuver. Thanks!

I learned hands-off steep turns on my flight test. After doing them to the examiner's satisfaction he told me "that was OK, but there's a better way..." and proceeded to show me. I go out to the local practice area a couple of times a year to play, uh, practice.

Great video. What is you are using an airplane that has electric trim. How much trim would you put in?

@daniellanders5794 5 ай бұрын

Jason, if you get a chance, I’d love your thoughts. I’m post cross country just practicing for my checkride. My school’s steep turn checklist does what you’re suggesting with the trim, but they also add a bump (+200rpm) of power just before you add the trim. I think it’s to combat sink….any thoughts?

@loriepage4582 2 жыл бұрын

Great video! I’m a student pilot and your videos are my go-to! Just practiced this maneuver yesterday but didn’t have this tip. Will definitely use it next time. One question, why does it require more trim for a right turn?

@MzeroAFlightTraining 2 жыл бұрын

Hey Lorie! Right steep turns require more back pressure/trim due to the gyroscopic precession of the prop! I hope this helps! Thanks for watching!

@user-uf5lh5kz9h 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Jason, I spoke with my Instructure to practice steep turns with trim like what you did, and he said to me No , and he said I am teaching you How to fly, not How to using trim, But I am gonaa do it by my self when he Realse me to go Solo GF.

@georgenicholson5690 2 жыл бұрын

Great video Jason, as always. I have a doubt though!! As you turn to 45° are you applying back pressure as well or only using the three rolls of trim? Cheers from Panamá city

@MzeroAFlightTraining 2 жыл бұрын

Hi George! You can do whatever you would like. Just remember to take out the trim or back pressure when you roll out so you don't start a climb! Thanks for watching!

@kurtreber9813 2 жыл бұрын

Since the 3 or 4 rolls of the trim wheel was enough to keep the nose level during the turn, I would say the trim is doing all the back pressure for you

@Rodhern 2 жыл бұрын

Cool demonstration. What is the reason that the airplane needs a different amount of trim up for left versus right turns?

@MzeroAFlightTraining 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Robert! Thanks for watching! There could be a number of reasons you need different amounts of trim, most notably the left-turning tendencies! Fly safe!

@ugochimaroke8259 2 жыл бұрын

Hi jason, i enjoy all your video. per steep turn is it possible when you add just two rolls of trim after a turn ..you will still achieve a good steep turn?or it must be 3 rolls of trim?

@MzeroAFlightTraining 2 жыл бұрын

Hello! This is a good question. It does depend on the plane you're flying but for a c172 3 works great.

@liudmilachudina 2 жыл бұрын

What's the best way to do with the power - to keep my altitude? Do you lock it in or do you keep adjusting it while doing the turn? Thanks much.

@MzeroAFlightTraining 2 жыл бұрын

Hello! You need to slightly increase power when you enter the turn because you need to increase the angle of attack to compensate for the loss of the vertical component of lift. Just make sure to take it out when you finish the maneuver so you do not increase airspeed above the ACS standards! Fly safe!

@Kuflijaffa-kr6fy 8 ай бұрын

I observed that, you did not add extra power after you roll into the turn to compensate for the lost vertical lift, isn’t that necessary while using the trim method, I wonder? Thanks 😊

@UltimateAnarchy 2 жыл бұрын

On my discovery flight, the CFI said I would have to do a 45-degree bank while turning to pass my check-ride (someday) then he showed me that in action. Then, he did a 60-degree bank then pulled back pretty aggressively on the yoke (while banked) so I could really feel the G-forces. To be honest, I didn't like it at all. It was really scary for me. He said some people actually take that up to about 70 to 75 degrees, which I can't even imagine in a small airplane like that. I mean, I don't consider a Piper Cherokee to be an aerobatic airplane. So my questions are... what document actually shows how many G's a particular airplane is capable of withstanding? and how do you know if you get close to that if there's no gauge on the instrument panel for that?

@MzeroAFlightTraining 2 жыл бұрын

Hello! In an aircraft's POH it lists weight restrictions by category (normal, utility, etc). The FAA lists the G forces that are within each category. And while there may not be a specific gauge in most GA aircraft, you can know your G forces by your condition of flight. For example, 60 degrees of bank is 2 G's. There is a chart that lists all the G forces and their associated bank angles. If you need any further clarification please reach out to us at support@mzeroa.com. Hope this helps!

Jason, you stressed pushing the yoke forward when exiting a steep turn. Why? I'm going to guess if you don't push the yoke forward, you'll start to climb because of the trim?

@MzeroAFlightTraining 2 жыл бұрын

That is correct! You need to take out the trim or back pressure you had when you roll out so you don't start to climb. Thanks for watching!
