Thanks for leaving everything in there! That's a great lesson for us all!! Two thumbs up!!!

Great video! You are great and you are so calm at all times. I like how you keep us all informed on what is going on during the flight... It really helps me learn.. thank you

Thank you for leaving this in, great lesson.

Thanks for sharing... It's a good reminder of how easy it is to get distracted during a critical phase of flight!

Good on you mate. That is the perfect example we should all follow, transparency with our mistakes will save others! Lots of thumbs up!

Enjoyed your video! Regards from Brazil, South America...

Appreciate you leaving it in, good gouge for the rest of us!

Awesome job. The controller noticed you were slightly off course and you were already correcting for it. Ty for sharing!!

Thanks for leaving it in! Nice recovery.

Thanks for sharing. Tower was a little concerned when you drifted left of the final approach with 31L in use at the same time. You corrected and everything turned out fine. A pilot's license is a license to learn and I thank you for letting us learn along with you.

As a private pilot working towards my instrument rating and having had a few simulated approaches get away from me at the end as you get closer to the localizer I can appreciate this and am glad you uploaded your video 'as is'. I looked at it as a real-world example of an application of the IFR skill set. Not to mention the added pressure of having kids in the back seats. Nice recovery and very nice radio work. That was a heavy workload, so thanks for sharing. See you in the sky!

It doesn't take much to distract does it... I liked that the controller nudged you. She wasn't rude... just a little nudge. It's nice to have someone watching out for you. I appreciate that you showed that part. It's real life. We don't get to have perfect days every day.

Great video, thanks for sharing! I know how stressful things can get especially with the family on board...

Great Vid! Just getting back into it and starting my instrument and I like the way you talk thru all your processes and checklists!

I'm Shocked you and Your Family Do Not Have More Subs!! Definitely shared your Channel! and Keep Doin What You Love Brother!

Great video and great lesson learned. The key is to ignore those distractions and fly the airplane. I think you did well under the circumstances. My son and I own a Grumman Tiger and we fly a lot of IMC in that thing. Having two pilots helps with the workload. Also, kudos to your wife and kids. They are troopers!

New Sub and clicked the Bell too... Thanks for sharing and greetings up near KSET / KSTL. I just got my PPL last year July and looking forward to getting my instrument training at end of this year. It's nice to see this for training purposes. It's certainly helping me for sure learn some things. It looks like you got quite the IMC time as well. Take care..

Great video! Good job on getting recognizing you were off before atc said it and great job getting back on the ils. You had a lot going on there... kids... radio interference... busy airspace being asked to fly it fast, then someone’s elt on final... I wouldn’t be that hard on yourself...

Oh, and I just subscribed. "Are we there, yet?" LOL. It's good to have a copilot with a wry sense of humor.

I love that you strive for perfection, but none of us can be perfect every day. You were still a calm, cool, smooth operator...did what you had to do to recover. I got a kick out of you tossing your sunglasses. Great video; thanks for keeping it real! I'd fly with you any day man.

I used to fly a 1972 Cherokee Arrow, but I haven't flown since 1977. It was fun while it lasted. Good video. Thanks..

Great job on recognizing and correcting before getting too far off course...I get a similar noise occasionally on the ILS 27 into KRYY as I clear over the power lines on short final.

thank you for the video! very nice...I am in the process to purchase an Arrow love this plane!

Great video and glad you didn't edit stuff out. Makes watching flying videos more beneficial. Keep making videos!

Great job Devin. It takes a certain person to put their flying on KZfaq. It takes an even bigger person to put your mistakes on KZfaq. On the STAR into Winnipeg about 20-30 miles north from roughly 10,000-3,000 anytime the other pilot flying with me transmits to arrival, I hear a music radio station in my comms. It’s very distracting and took a bit at first to disregard it. Good job working through your distraction! Also shoutout to WestJet at 8:50 haha. Love the East Coast Lifestyle hoodies, I have mine with me in the prairies lol

I loved that you shared this. Very real. You are me, and my partner is just like your wife 🤣🤣🤣🤣 you guys are so cute! Ppl here and new subscriber 👍👍👍

Yes, thanks for being real. I’m a 250-hour pilot and 50% through my instrument training and it helps to see real-world situations where nobody’s perfect.

Great video:))

You are too tough on yourself! Single pilot IFR is the real deal and without an autopilot, it can be a handful. I saw your comment on the use of the ISO button. If I am in the soup with passengers I always tell them I am going to isolate them. Between the “Are we there yet?” and your wife’s “I don’t like flying” comments, they all add to the stress of staying on top of the communications in a busy airspace. You did fine man!

Great video! If that’s the worst approach you’ve done you obviously have never flown with me, ha ha. I plan on getting my high performance endorsement out at Hooks this Monday, should be fun!

Thank you for sharing your learning. I died a little when your wife said I hate flying. Hopefully with more trips she will change to her like if it before the throttle cable issue.

I fly with my kids a lot. My favorite button on approach is the ISO button.

Nice job.

This video was well done!. I start my IFR training shortly so I watched closely and appreciate your humbleness in not editing out your approach. Few questions... What mount for your full sized IPAD? My yoke mount sometimes shifts on the column (Mygoflight) Why the sunglasses once in IMC?. Did you always hand fly or rely on your autopilot? Random thought, loved your wife double checking the throttle cable!. Safety suggestion: Consider muting out the kids in the back during all critical phases of flight. Keep up the good work!

At least You were still established, and were high on the glide instead of low... ATCs concerns was that they were using both R and Lrunways. Closer you get, ore sensitive the ILS becomes.. Nice job! Especially with kids and a wife who doesn’t like to fly ! I’m putting in a TruTrak AP end of March to help with workload in hard IMC like that.

Nice video and great learning experience. I will pass on tips from things I noticed. First you are making too many throttle adjustments. Know your speed and set up early. My Mooney is 18 inch MP which is 100kts level with 10 degrees flaps. Hold that till one bar above glide slope intercept then drop gear. That will slow you down and start down glide slope without any power change or trim adjustments. Use slight rudder inputs to track localizer. When you break out, landing flaps and land. Less you touch, less that can throw you off you game. Flying with kids, isolate them on intercom during sterile cockpit time.

Nicely done and shared. How do you like the One-X? I’m thinking of getting one.

Thanks for sharing the real world in IFR flight...you did a nice job in that ILS recovery. It look like you kept the localizer within 2 dots or less though. It would be nice if you could capture the panel a little closer, perhaps another camera zeroed in on the panel?? Did you figure what the radio noice that distracted you was? Thanks again for the VID! :-). Don/NE Ohio

Really good vid. I'm just a VFR, but still, it's educational for all of us. That yelping on short final? It's caused by camping chairs tossed behind the rear seats of a Cherokee 140, and they bump the ELT. Ask me how I know, LOL. Chagrined I was, LOL... At any rate, great vid. I suspect that was power line static, especially if they were fairly close, and it was humid. AM radios after all... Jim

Just a suggestion: try using only rudder inputs (keeping wings level) to stay on the localizer, and power to stay on glideslope. Takes a little getting used to, but will make your approaches more stable.

Stuff happens. That’s why you can always go around. No biggie. Good job. 👍🏻

just curious as to why you chose to fly into Love instead of Red Bird (Dallas Executive)? I usually try to minimize stress during my flights and flying IMC into a bravo increases my stress level. Thanks for leaving the troublesome stuff in at the end. A good lesson for all of us.

The last noise was an ELT going off Nice job things can be distracting for sure

I think we need to cut you a little slack because after all you were landing at a class Bravo airport. Thanks for sharing.

I like the “we have nothing that makes that noise”, should have added unless we crash! Sounded like an ELT

Thanks for sharing. BTW that static you heard was a cell phone. My guess is someone's phone was not in airplane mode.

I had a T-Saratoga for many years....the next step up from the Arrow. If I may offer some comments from my instrument training and years in a similar airplane. I recommend you brief the approach; top/middle/bottom. First; confirm you are looking at the correct plate. As you read the LOC freq; enter it into the 430. Enter the approach freq in the 430. (When you contact approach, enter the tower freq in backup). For situational awareness; what direction are you coming from so you know which direction to be expecting to turn to final. Load the approach in the 430 for backup. Step through the fixes shown on the 430; compare to those on the plate. Obviously, this is more important for an LPV approach than ILS; but the process should be the same. Brief the missed approach plan. Upon missed, were you going to fly the GPS magenta line; use Nav 2 to fly to the published hold; vectors to another approach? Confirm Source (VLOC), Course (OBS 313), Frequency (111.5), Identify (morse code) BEFORE accepting the approach. While you don't have to tune the OBS to the final course, it's a good idea (you might as well get used to doing this as it's just a matter of time before you use an HSI). As soon as you're given a vector; you're done navigating the GPS course; change the "button of death" from GPS to VLOC. By the time you accept the approach clearance; all you have to do is intercept the localizer and configure the plane. With the retractable Pipers; my procedure is to slow to approach speed; add one notch of flaps (which is all you need for a precision approach). Do your landing checklist before crossing final. As you cross final; drop the gear. This will start you down the Glide Slope without a power setting change. All you should do coming down the GS is fly the ILS and maintain airspeed; one hand on the yoke; the other on the throttle. Do one last GUMP or Red/Blue/Green check on short final. Even after you break out; I'm not a fan of any configuration changes after crossing FAF (such as adding more flaps). As you transition into faster; more complex airplanes it becomes increasingly important to stay ahead of the airplane. Everybody has an opinion; I'm no different; just trying to offer some tips from what works for me.

thanks for sharing.... probably the best course of action would have been to break off the approach and go missed and try again.

so cool to see u flying this plaine and now im flying it as i am the one who bought ur aircraft im the persons son

That static sounds just like a cell phone tower reconnect signal got into your audio amp on your intercom system. I had that same issue a time or two. Still a better landing than mine.

The buzzing was from a Cell Phone. It happens in some systems. I don't get it in our Citation but I do in the 182. It always seems to happen on the final approach, just in time to distract you. It happens when your phone is trying to connect or you get a call.

Was something wrong with the heater? Still, all in all, you came out of the clouds pretty much lined up with a minor adjustment. Good job! If that's your worst ils approach, you'll be fine.

We’re you monitoring guard? Almost sounded like an ELT test - but probably a bit too fast.

It’s always that one distraction, then the chase is on.

"Mike. Mike Mike Mike Mike..." Shoutout to Jerry Wagner?

what plane are you flying family

What your power settings at 5-6k?

We have all done worse, don't sweat it. Was your approach speed a bit fast on that? Pipers love to float. Also give yourself a break. Flying imc like that without an AP has got to be draining.

If you make it to KOLV (Memphis), look me up and you can try a flight out in my comanche. It has a lot more room and a great useful load. I fly my family of 4 around similar to you :)

A GREAT TRICK is to monitor DTK and TRK on your GPS. Keep those two numbers the same and you localizer will remained nailed. You can see a 1 degree drift, which you won't see as readily on the LOC. It will also help you figure out a correction track to re-intercept. Good video, nice radio/comm work.

The sound @25:05 sounds like an ELT transmission

would have been a busted check ride ..

Married to a pilot and she hates flying. That's fun...

"That's not us." "We have nothing that makes that noise." You don't have an ELT?

cell phone interference :)

Hope your wife know how to fly i wont fly with my soon by my self even if i'm the best pilot in the world is all ways good have someone to fly the aircraft just in case you don't feel good or something happens to you.

Too much talking by the pilot! For crying out loud shut up!

Enjoyed your video! Regards from Brazil, South America...
