2024 Dec Short field takeoff/landing and Stalls
Deer crossed runway and in area so I decided to do a short field take off. The landing, although not a typical short field did encorporate airspeed control to land slow and by the numbers. Also thought I'd demonstrate accelerated stalls. Once in slow flight, about red line, I was banking 30 degrees, usually this would do it, but I was light so not this time. Did a power off stall and followed it with power on stall. Also had fun with the Gopro 360 edit. Ended with a descent landing. My flare was a bit high, so when the plane stopped flying she plopped!
00:00 take off
03:00 cleared the area
04:15 slow flight
05:20 Power off stall followed by power on

Nice VFR day, I needed to try and sort out radio problems I was having. I mounted my GoPro 9 to the front copilot jacks (in the past it was rear copilot's) and the GoPro 360 on glareshield to capture my hand signals which I intended to use to show when there was transmission or receiver signals. Hey great day to work the autopilot (Century 2000) since recently it didn't capture an approach. 00:...

Cold winter day, friend wanted some new places he wouldn't go in his skyhawk this time of year. I mounted a GoPro Max 360 on glareshield and GoPro 9 overhead for audio. I also just became aware that some audio wasn't working. Intercom no problem. But transmitting or receiving some was intermitant. Interesting, I could go with ATC and had no issues? Working on it.

Experimenting with places to mount the cameras. A GoPro 8 has stopped recording a couple of times, maybe cause it was under the wing? GoPro 9 has been my cockpit recorder, have a 360 max and not sure which I like under the wing.... This flight had winds out of west, gusting 19, easy for the Twinco, so I hopped over to N14 for quick landing. Did catch my G530 dropping some radio calls, I'll have...

    Steven, I got a message you subscribed to me on you tube. I don't have a you tube channel, unless you want me to subscribe to you. I do comment a lot on other channels, especially accident you tubers. JPI 960 is a great piece of equipment. I have an 830 in my V35B. Years ago I did have a 760 in my Baron 58TC, also a great piece. Flew my LyCon TSIO-520-LB engines a 1,000 hours without having a cylinder off. The 760 allowed for excellent engine management (especially temps.). Your io-320 (s) are bullet proof engines. So are you a dentist or md? I think I know.

    Steven, I’ve been watching your videos for awhile now, and I wanted to tell you I really appreciate you making these very informative videos. I’ve been an airline pilot for the last 32 years, and decided to get back into GA flying. During the mid to late 80’s I flew freight in a C310R and Be-18’s, but after 32 years the cob webs really start to set in on piston twin flying. I bought a C310J about a year ago, and your videos have really helped me get my head back in the game on this type of flying. Thanks you for your effort and professionalism.

    • @MrSmddmd
      @MrSmddmd Год назад

      I leave open for the climb, close in cruise and descent, Usually. The control when open is exposed about 2.5 inches. Closed in flight, pushed in, it will back out 1/4 due to air pressure. Sometimes in cruise, IF my CHT's go above 410, about, I may, may open for a few minutes to help cool off. This test since I climbed initially then did all descent level offs, overheating really wasn't an issue. And I always leaned ROP too. Sometimes in cruise at altitude I may lean to PEAK, but this was just testing, and having fun

I really enjoy the PA30. I sometimes wish it had boots and hot props but… don’t think that’s practical. I fly in losts of weather, just careful not to pick any fights with Ice.

    That instructor is an idiot. You never create an emergency just to simulate one. You shut an engine down at at least 5000’ AGL or more let them fly it single engine and get used to it . Then before returning to airport you restart the engine but just keep it at zero thrust and have your student land like the aircraft is single engine. That way if you get into trouble like to slow or to low or for some reason you have to go around you have that second engine to get your self out of trouble. Find your self another instructor.

  • @stefanorso
    @stefanorso 5 лет назад

    Flying a twin-prop after an engine failure sometimes is hard to do and quite dangerous. It typically depends upon the characteristics of the plane and which engine is not working. A failure affecting the critical engine (usually the left one, seen from the pilot's viewpoint) generates more troubles. Some twin prop airplanes do not have the problem concerning the critical engine, as they have two counter-rotating engines. The tendency to yaw can be more strong, depending upon the mass distribution and the shape of the aircraft. In every case, the pilot must keep the IAS above the VMC indicated in the manual. Sometimes he has to pose the airplane in a safe-position, by lowering the wing with the working engine and keeping the nose oriented the other way. This is the traditional technique to prevent the airplane from yawning and entering a fatal spin. Twin props are generally less prone than "zero weight" airplanes to enter a spin, because of mass distribution, but - once the phenomenon of the spin has inadvertently started - there is normally no way to stop it.
