I've never seen so much professionalism in a cockpit

I thought you were doing the Embry riddle briefing at the start of the vid

This guy is great lol. "Not that I can see outside" lol

Absolutely love your “style” of teaching, you make flight training more enjoying other than how some instructors who are so bland with their teaching, just passed my commercial and getting ready for cfi training and definitely learn a lot from your videos sir(:

Great video, with getting my PPL in October, I started ground school via Sportys for instrument and now just had first lesson in plane today for it after also getting my Complex endorsement today in an Arrow as well. Keep up the great IFR vids that have been coming out!

Shoot whenever I was doing my partial panel training, it was always like 30 knot winds at altitude LMAO. Actually it was like that and super gusty on my Instrument Checkride. Flew a localizer approach with a "failed" vacuum system and that aircraft didn't have a GPS. It was so much fun.

HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!! 🤗😘

“My personal minimums are 1000’, I’ll never go below that without being visual” DPE’s hate this one simple trick! Lol Awesome partial panel approach, Conrad is really coming along!

Happy New Year Lew....but wait a minute, is that a C....., no way :-) Oh right, I did see 32042 at the shop the other day, finally!

That seemed like such an enjoyable flight hahaha. Cant wait until I do my IFR training!

Bob the builder he can do it, yes he can! 😂 Great to watch thx both.

Watching this is starting to make me stress about my instrument flight lab that I'm starting in a few weeks.

Love the video man, and great instructing style. I fly for fun, and can't stand it when an instructor forgets to pull the stick out of his arse before he gets in my plane. Speaking of my plane, it has an IFD-440 but an otherwise crappy 80s panel with vacuum AI/DG and an inop AP. I have been putting off doing my instrument till I get the AP fixed and GI-275s installed, but it's going to be months to get in the shop. This video might have just motivated me to get it done now. Vacuum failure partial panel doesn't look nearly as impossible to manage as I had envisioned.

The boat floating across the chart was nice subtle touch, I was on the floor laughing.

A hoy’ mate cast the forward sail! 😂

Happy New Year...

Maybe a little too much anti-fun in this one 🤣

My contrizzles 😭🥰

I’m living for these bleeps

I don’t get any of this stuff because I haven’t actually started flight school for goodness sake I’ve only FLOWN a plane once in my life, this summer, but I’ve sat in the left seat of a CJ1 and premier 1 basically all my life. However...I still like somehow enjoy these videos! Thanks for the content Mr. Dixon (LOL)

PS, you should come instruct with us in Denver 😉

Don't let that kid have too much fun. Flying should be like visiting the dentist.

I just wonder that how many hours student have ? Btw cool video as always :)

Hello big boss love your stuff I’m in Germany 🇩🇪 I tried emailing for lessons for when I come over just need advice on few matters

What go pro mount do u use for the over head go pro? Is that a suction cup or a actual mount? I wanted to record my solo and wanted to know

Thank you! Someone else who points out nose wheel steering does fuck all! Edit: did you get chewed out for unprofessionalism? I reference your videos all the time to show how an instructor and students relationship should be. Like you can tell how much more frustrated and tense the student was as soon as you became more clinical.

Is it scary to fly in your planes Is it bad for a city or panic attacks any advice for 1st flyer don’t find any vids on it

If given a heading and altitude into a bravo are you cleared or do you still need to hear the words?

Lewis, chat with me. Coming to town next week bro!

If you are cleared for the ILS approach, shouldn't you be following ILS procedures and following the glideslope? I thought it is a different clearance when they say cleared LOC approach, where the procedures are different

LewDix, you either have a waiting list of 1000 potential students or get phone calls from Uncle FAA daily. I enjoy your teaching style. If this is real IFR training let me know. Thanks.

whats up with the right side panel in front of lewdix?

Hi

Happy Nee Year

That is the wrong way to set personal minimums, you only get away with this oversimplification because you are flying flat lands, it will bite you in the mountains. 1000 ft above what? Under what parameters? If the approach mins are 1000agl your personal mins are = legal mins? What about the density altitude? Does the missed require a basic climb of 200ft/nm at sea level or 450ft/nm at 7000ft? You are much better saying something like 700ft above the legal approach mins, and some extra buffer if your calculated climb gradient, at actual weight and altitude, is close to the required climb gradient. The buffer for the missed climb is slightly more complicated than the DA/MDA buffer; I have two airports in my area with ~430ft/nm climb requirements but one is only to 1000 above the airport, while the other goes to 5000 above the airport. Clearly a 700ft buffer will take care of the first, but 700ft will only add about 70ft/nm buffer for the second airport [assuming a legal DH of ~500]) Adding 70ft/nm is ok if you calculate a 500ft/nm performance as this will provide 140ft/nm total buffer but if you calculate 440ft/nm performance and are not certain to have the help of some headwinds then it may be to close for personal comfort. Then you also must consider visual range, zero buffer may be ok if conditions are clear enough to see and avoid the controlling obstacles but an 80ft/nm buffer may be too close for comfort in hard IMC.
