This is incredibly invaluable content! As a controller at Harrisburg Approach this was a really helpful look at the other side of the operation. We'll definitely share it with our controllers and hope to see you in our airspace someday soon.

Glad to hear it! Looking forward to getting back up to PA one of these flights.

It just so happens that I’ve actually shot the RNAV rwy 26 into KCXY for a IFR XC flight just the other night. I’m now prepping for my instrument checkride by watching a couple videos similar to this one. Aviation is a pretty small world.

Starting my IFR flight training in exactly one week. I've been using your videos to help prepare for the real life stuff, as I got a 100% on my written, and your videos truly are the best I've ever come across. From one KZfaqr to another, thank you for your awesome videos. I know countless hours of work go behind just a simple 8 minute video and sometimes it can be draining. From one pilot to another, thank you for providing such great information in small, bite-sized servings. Looking forward to coming back and updating you in 2-3 months (hopefully) I'll be IFR certified by then. Wishing you blue skies and tailwinds man!

Hey - me again! Got my IFR ticket today! Just wanted to say thanks again for your videos. Couldn't have done it without you! Time to go punch some holes in the clouds! ☁️✈️

0:12 hey that sure looks like the 31 approach for harrisburg, and then capital city across the water! I'm flying approaches into there now!

Great video for prep! However, nothing can prepare you for the... special... personalities of some DPE's. Unfortunately the ones in my area are quite hit and miss... You might get one who is the epitome of professionalism, or you might get one who is disrespectful, condescending, and actively tries to demoralize the pilot he or she is evaluating.

Haha good timing. Had my single engine IFR flight test this morning. (Canada)

One question, at 7:15 you explicitly mention a DME readout - do you mean that literally (as opposed to 'great circle' GPS distance) ?

@healerf18 Жыл бұрын

Great presentation. I recently passed my instrument check ride and a couple of notes from my experience might help others. My DPE would not allow me to use ForeFlight. I could only use either paper approach plates or screen shots on my iPad. Also, he did not allow me to use any map functions on the GPS. I could only use the Nav page demo'd on your bottom GPS. I did fine, but it would have helped to practice those limitations more than I did.

@flightinsight9111 Жыл бұрын

Wow some DPEs are still prohibiting foreflight? There's an argument to teaching fundamentals but there's also an important argument that students should be savvy with the latest technology, especially in IFR.

@healerf18 Жыл бұрын

@@flightinsight9111 Agreed, but my DPE wanted to make certain I couldn't see the airplane icon overlay on the approach plates. Even disabling the feature wasn't enough. He said paper or screenshots, no ForeFlight!

He’s gonna get reported for that because the Ipad is the charts these days.

Mock multiengine checkride?

@CascadiaAviation Жыл бұрын

Huh that’s crazy the VSI can be totally wrong and the plane is still allowed to go IFR. Now that I think about it it’s not in 91.205 GRABCARD or A TOMATO FLAMES so that’s probably why.

@TheUnhappyTroll Жыл бұрын

immediate question. If DPE fail your GPS in this Cessna, then your radio won't work for you, correct? Flight should be terminated by return to airfield with appropriate squawk code dialed in.

@pinocchiochambers 10 ай бұрын

the radio will still work.
