Student pilot here. I spent a lot of money using another “popular” flight schools online class. And I’ve also watched countless other popular KZfaqrs with their lessons. Admittedly I do struggle with comprehension and retain-age a little bit. It’s not bad but a struggle at times nonetheless and understanding some of them is a real struggle. That said I’ve spent the last 3 days watching a lot of your videos and have to say your teachings/lessons have been the absolute best thus far for me. I say that without question. Personally. I was on the verge of quitting and you’ve absolutely revitalize my interest. So I thank you for helping me understand. You take the time to really break it down while going through the whole process. Again thank you it’s very much appreciated.

For your top of descent, just use 3:1 rule. Take your altitude to lose in thousands of feet, so in your case 3.1 (3,100), and times that by 3. That's 9.3 miles away from your destination. Then just take your GS x 5 (or half GS and add a 0 at the end) to find your FPM. There is your descent. This gets you a 3 degree descent rate, and doesn't feel uncomfortable at 1,000 FPM (in a little plane at least)

When looking at the cruise performance chart and deciding which temperature column to use, you wouldn't compare your cruise OAT temp with 15 degrees, but rather what standard temperature would be at your cruise altitude. So, in this instance at 5500, ISA would be +4 with the standard lapse rate. We are looking at an OAT of +8. So we are +4 ISA which is still much closer to standard than the other ones, so it all works out the same. But I didn't think it was super clear in the video. Other than that, just a superb job. Extremely clear and well done. Thank you for all your work.

I echo "mike v's" statement. I too am coming up on a PPL check ride very soon. In fact, I already had one scheduled on the 23rd of May however, during my mock check ride with my CFI, I discovered a deficiency that I was not comfortable with taking to the practical exam. So, I cancelled the original check ride until I get that ironed out. This video could not have come at a better time. It has been at least 18 months since I've filled out a NavLog so, this video provides an OUTSTANDING review. Thank you Nick - Well done !!!!

By far the best breakdown of computing and building the nav log. I love the running clock method. In the Air Force we taught student pilots with the running clock in order to reach the “target” on time on vfr low-level. If slightly ahead at a checkpoint we knew to slow down a bit to get back on the clock. No time on target requirements with vfr x-country but I agree it’s easier and less heads down while flying.

This brings back many old memories of when I got my private pilot certificate. After you’ve been doing this for a while it almost becomes irrelevant. Looking at a Cessna 172 and a 58 mile trip right off the top of my head I figured it would take around 36 to 38 minutes and need about 9 to 9 1/2 gallons of fuel. I used to fly some trips NDB to NDB or use those two stations’ bearings to find my position!

I just recently did my Instrument Proficiency Check. The ILS at one of the airports used an NDB in conjunction with the ILS. Then, we flew the NDB approach with a DME arc at that airport. The airport had two NDBs!! So, there are still some in use. But they will soon be gone to make way for GPS approaches. Prepare to spend a lot of money!

@@FreePilotTraining With a G1000 I like turning on the bearings with VOR 1 & 2 and finding the radial by the needle tail. One thing I also trained myself to do is fly opposite on a VOR. Reverse sensing is bad terminology as there is no such thing. The VOR doesn’t reverse anything. It only cares about being left or right of the selected radial regardless of aircraft heading. If the VOR location in relation to your airplane, and the selected radial is showing the needle deflected in the same direction with a “from” indication, you’re not there yet, approaching the radial as you would crossing an intersection. Kind of like when you are driving and looking at a road map. Most people hold the map with north up so they can read the print. If you’re heading south and you see the town you’re looking for on you’re right, you actually have to make a left turn. Not many turn a map and read it upside down. This is why the HSI was invented. Using your mind to keep your situational awareness is a great tool and it keeps you sharp!

I am revisiting this video again for refresher. This is by far the best most accurate and precise video out there on the subject. The only thing I throw up for discussion is when to arrive at TPA. Normally I like to be at TPA no less than 3 miles from the airport, therefore I might calculate my arrival at TPA not to be the airport, but instead perhaps a landmark (or just eye ball it cuz the airport should be in sight) about 3-5 miles away from the airport. Watch out for obstructions in this 3-5 mile range. Then I cruise in to the pattern already at TPA. I dont like to be descding as I am close to and approaching my 45 degree entry. I like to already be at TPA 3-5 miles out from the airport. But.. for flight planning purposes (assuring you have enough fuel), your TOD workflow is stellar!. Luv it. Again...stellar job. Your attention to detail and workflow is stellar and I commend you. I am a CFII and always learning. Thank you for taking the time to make this video again. It's can be boring and mundane, but you made it interesting. Thank you .

We are an International school and we are looking for ( like everyone else !) lol For CFI,s CFII,s MEI,s and Double I,s and even looking at filling out our A@P,s as we have an attrition rate after they get their experience or think they are experienced 🙈 after 6 months of work. Lol. We are trying to build something like apprenticeship for mechanics and or pilots who can work here and learn the job from the bottom to the top. I got my experience straight from on the job training. It’s been something I have never regretted doing as our school has never even slowed down even at the highest point of COVID. WE are in high demand as pilots ,mechanics or any other aviation related job. Good luck. Michael M. Gwinnette Atlanta.

Great video! One thing I think would've helped is to also talk about the weight on the aircraft, e.g. we'd expect to use more fuel with more weight.

@4:58 "East and Least and West is Best" also works for the cruise altitude as well as other things. East is least: 1 is less the 2, 3 is less than 4, counting. And you always add 500 for VFR.

​@@FreePilotTraining In addition to that point. Maybe add to this video that I suggested and you kindly agreed to explain to us, why the horizontal stabilizer does not produce, or does, vortexes. And why in a spin the inner wing, wing root, is the part that stalls first, and finally the turbulent air that is produced by the vortexes generators does not cause induced drag. As the turbulent air causes an adverse pressure gradient that makes the air towards the lower pressure area on the wing part that has the laminar air with less air pressure. I appreciate all the videos that you graciously do for us with a goodwill. May God reward you for this, Josh!

Good end to end description of flight planning with weather! however, the formula for interpolating wind direction at 7:50 works... sometimes :) 010 and 350 (both north) should probably not average to 180 (south)

Not sure if this has been commented yet but the one I learned from Gleim for the even/odd altitudes +500 is "The East is odd, but the West is even odder" and that's been easy for me. I'd probably forget a word like sweven if a time arose where I needed it lol

Good afternoon Josh. I am a student pilot prepping for checkride. I recently finished this part of my training . It will be a great quick review to digest in the future. One question you discussed is using a VFR airway and radial as a checkpoint. That all makes sense but I don’t understand how you confirm you crossed that checkpoint. Could you do another video or blog discussing this process.
@FreePilotTraining
@FreePilotTraining 2 жыл бұрын
If you have the 342 radial dialed in, you will get a from indication and the needle will be lined up. I have a video that explains in detail kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bLlpaNSJtrS4qoGh.html enjoy!

OUTSTANDING This Lesson is simply outstanding for its clarity. A more easy to understand explanation it would be hard to find. I suspect that even if you are not specifically math orientated you would get this with no 'Brain Pain' or Head Scratching... All in all this is so very interesting that it stands watching a couple of times...even if you are not a pilot. This is just good stuff... Well done... James Hennighan Yorkshire, England
