I'm back at it after more than 2 weeks away from aeroplanes! It was high time for a proficiency flight from Orlando Executive (KORL) to Kissimmee Gateway (KISM).
Enjoy the flight!

Another great video. I’m in training flying a Cherokee. My next flight is my first solo. My landings had been a little rough but watching your videos and hearing you vocalize what you are looking and focusing on has really helped me improve. Never stop talking to yourself it helps people like me out.

First I want to thank you for what you do on your channel! Even after reading your/the disclaimer I've still learned so much! I'm right at about 25 hours and gaining more and more confidence with my landings, by looking down the runway; I've still got to stick that flare and roundout, but it's coming! All that said, what tablet do you use for you Garmin Pilot or Foreflight? Also my Flying Eyes came in this week!

I always fly with two 430’s(flightschool), mostly use the first one for the frequencies like Tower/Ground/approach. 2nd to set the needed ATIS in standby and I always lissen out on the emergency frequency when flying. At bigger airports, when ATIS is been noted. It’s handy to set the Groundfrequency ready before final approach. For a fast switch.

@Jonnydeerhunter 3 жыл бұрын

Our Piper Lance has a 530W and a 430 for second radio. We use them both the same, for redundancy, but we also don't hardly take any short round robin trips. The FlightStream 210 makes entering flight plans a world easier. There are alot of great features in both of the GNS Units that most people do not take advantage of. In the 530 we have set up a continuous timer that flashes a switch tanks message every 30 minutes that the unit is on. Really helps a ton with fuel management and really keeps us from getting a heavy wing. Also we say We because it's us and our girl, the airplane! ;)

I haven’t flown two 430’s in a while, but they were set up to auto cross fill the flight plan to the second one. I basically used the second screen to show another, i.e. map in one and either traffic on the second or the nav page with TRK and CDI on the second one.

@nevadahamaker7149 3 жыл бұрын

As I've returned to flying, and especially as I've recently purchased my own aircraft, I know what you're talking about when you describe switching back and forth between your airspeed indicator and your aiming point. I imagine it's more difficult being in the right seat since you have to move your head more. It makes me wish a practical, and not terribly expensive, heads-up display was available for small aircraft like ours. And, yes, when flying, I talk to myself all. the. time.

Just a couple days ago I did my first solo xc, all checklists and what I was doing I still talked aloud as if my cfi was next to me, during the cruise portion the silence on the radio and no one there with you talking was a bit eerie, and my destination airport no one else was around so it was just more silence. Had a ton of fun though.

i woke up this morning, and saw the new video post, and was yelling and woohooing.. is that bad? Capt Lil' Dix needs FLYING EYES.. maybe the second iteration of him? I say We as well, when flying solo. I think it is because i think of the plane as another entity. And together, we make magic. WIthout me, the plane cannot fly, and without the plane, i cannot fly. It is a well oiled union.. OMG, i talk to myself all the time.
