Flying Instrument approaches into a two airport at the worst time! Watch this IFR flight from inside the cockpit, hear radio calls and see maps/procedure overlays to see how I fly around Melbourne's busy airspace as a single pilot in a Cirrus SR22.

pivot mounts and cases are amazing, they connect to existing ram clamp and suction cup mounts so you can make a mount exactly to your needs.

For me it's PIVOT Cases. I actually had to buy them in the US as it's not available in Europe, but wouldn't want anything else. Had the RAM before and the exact same fear as you. The display sometimes flickered during installation which was very scary

Our airline uses PIVOT mounts. The iPad fits into an ipad holder which has a moulded quick mounting point on the back, so it's the holder which clicks in and out. Solid connection, easy to grab iPad, good swivel mount on the aircraft.

Stefan, I recommend the Quad Lock mount system, it uses a quarter turn to connect, holds securely, and the mounts can be attached to the dash/fascia/trim with good double-sided tape, and/or a small screw. I use it in my 4WD and it holds securely even on the roughest outback tracks

I noticed at 4:00 you had a system in your notes (C-R-A-F-T), was wondering if you could share what it means and any other tips you had? Or if you already covered that in another video please let me know.

Dude get a pivot case. It’s the best thing I’ve gotten for myself. You can mount it and dismount it very quickly. And they have various mount styles so you can snap it to your knee, up on your windshield in seconds. Very convenient. Also has a nice way to grip your Apple Pencil so it can’t get knocked off in turbulence.

Completely unrelated to this, but I was watching your coverage of the air show in france from a couple of months ago and you were talking about the B1-B being super loud on a low fly-by and it reminded me of footage I have from the Avalon air show in 2011 of a B1, that we didn't know was going to be there, showing up after all the scheduled displays when I happened to be standing quite close to the runway. It did a low fly-by (can confirm how loud they are) and then came back around and landed right in front of me. Was actually quite nostalgic going back and watching.

Stefan, i use a Defender case with my iPad. It does make the whole iPad bigger, and bulkier, but i've dropped it etc and have never damaged it as a result. Then with that i use and Ram Universal spring mount. I've seen a lot of pilots using the Pivot case/mount. Appreciate your videos. Safe flying...

@Mixturerich 9 ай бұрын

I have the same EZRoller and I have same concern. So I hold the clip up when inserting iPad mini 6. Then I let the clip lower gently over the front of screen. Best approach barring a better Pivot mount and case which are fairly expensive.

@migupl Aussie ATC here. If we get a foreign registration we use the full callsign on first contact and then abbreviate it to the first letter and last 2 letters/numbers. Australia had just run out of 3 letter registrations so they have introduced numbers into the rego after the VH. It's taking a while to get used to that.
