Departure Checklist and Briefing

- While editing a longer video I found a good example of doing my departure briefing. Many ask about that all the time so I figured I would put this quick clip to show what I do, BUT always keeping in mind that this is NOT for instructional purposes.

Thanks for going through the check list with us, the check lists are the most important thing the pilot does in my opinion.
Thanks Nico. Wow air conditioning is on the checklist. You're a fortunate man.
I am studying the Commercial Pilot Licence in University. I watch your every videos. Love it. Thank you so much ! ✈️
Great example of using checklists and then thinking everything through. And anyone who's watched you for any length of time knows you always use them and are always planning ahead!
I always enjoy learning new things about aviation and even though I am familiar with using a checklist prior to departure, I've never heard anyone go through one. Very informative and detailed!
Speaking the checklist out loud is a good tip!
I don't see the need to say things out loud. When I'm by myself, no one can hear it. When I have passengers they don't know what it means unless they are pilots.
The comprehension level of your brain when you both think it, speak it and hear it is tremendously higher than just reading it. If you have guests on board, they will be thankful and impressed that they see that you have a process, and if you don’t care about sharing with them just mute their audio and tell them “I will mute you momentarily while I go through my checklists”. They will appreciate it.
@@NikosWings I think some pilots do it to impress their passengers with something they know and the passengers don't. Pilots do that a lot--and not just in the cockpit.
Thanks for the insight Niko. Will be in the air soon with a 22 G3 and can’t wait. All your flight information Ground and Air Always a great benefit to help make me a better pilot!
Great video. Thank you so much.
Nice one, Niko - very informative! Thanks!
Thanks for sharing bro! You are a great pilot!
Executed the pre-takeoff briefing as depicted in the Cirrus FOM with excellence. 👍🏻
Good planning and checks helps a lot, there can not be complacency in aviation
thanks as always Nico for giving us an insight into your life both in the air and on the ground thank you once again God bless. Gus

Thank you!
Very good example of setting your mind for the flight.
I am doing the same, it is good to have the options in your "short term memory" available - hopefully - automatically for the one day that I might need it. I do have noticed however that I sometimes get a bit lazy with doing it when I am doing the flight back from somewhere with only a short break or when a passenger is on board. I do try to improve here and lately I became a bit more strict about it! Always learn, always improve and be honest to yourself in order to stay a good pilot! 👍 👍 👍
Well done. Informative and to the point. Thanks Niko.
Did the same thing 35 years ago but my checklist was in plastified cardboard even in the Lear 55 ;-)
I have one of those in the back of the co-pilot seat just in case electronics go kaput
Do the electronics really go kaputt? 😆
That's what I'm using!
Greetings again from Ohio, and again, Blessings to all .... Nicely done. I am going that younger or new pilots pay very close attention as you 'plan your work, and work your plan'. Hopefully they will go through this informative material with their instructors. There lways send to be things to learn though your videos .... May you stay safe and well, one and all. Thnx for another great and informative video.
Nice video, Niko! Great to have some background info to your flying 👍🏻
Very nice Niko! it is also good to brief Rejected Take Off.
Nice and thorough Niko, as it should be 💪💪💪🛩🛩🛩
Nice job Niko, that's the way I do it too!!
Pre flight briefing is the thing could save your life !
Thank you that was very informational.
when i was flying, one of the coowners of the FBO would grumble when I found something wrong with one of the 150's I would rent. I took that as a challenge.... to find more things wrong and that checklist was always a good way to keep my eyes open for things that were wrong.
very nice vid! short and sweet!
Always, Always use a checklist , say it out loud as you are using it.
Yup
I use a checklist before takeoff. I never say it out loud. It just seems silly when I'm by myself and with passengers it doesn't mean anything to them anyway. I don't do a formal departure briefing. I know from thousands of takeoffs what I will do if something happens. I'm not a professional pilot. I don't want to be one.
Seat belt check... I was taught that the lap belt must be low and tight, not pulled up by the shoulder harness, to avoid injury in case you use it.
You were taught right
Very informative video, thank you.
Better safe then good job
I like it!!
Wing "tips" with Niko on Wednesday!
“Wing Tips” I’m stealing the idea
Fail to plan, plan to fail right Niko!!! ;-)
Yup
A bit rapid running through this I thought Niko. You said controls free & correct but didn’t actually move the yoke to test this (full left, full right, full nose up, full nose down).
Video heavily edited so your not bored to death
Good morning!
I use a "FLOW", but I "DO" reference the checklist to ensure I didn't miss anything!
Nice job, Niko! Let me know if you want to see a link for the startup & run up that I did for a Lancair Columbia 350.
Sure
OK, thanks. You can see it here: ruclips.net/video/mJTKNQh_u_E/видео.html
I miss your original opening music
Excellent video on the checklist that you go through before taking to the air. You are a careful pilot and that is a good thing. I would like to see your thoughts on your last Cirrus compared to your current one. Is this a turbo 4 cylinder? Safe flights to you Niko. You keep flying, I'll keep watching.
The SR22 are 6 cylinder and this one is the twin turbo as opposed to the old one that was normally aspirated. Big difference is the power you feel the climb performance and the fact that you generate 100% power all the way to 25,000 which is the ceiling of the airplane. And of course speed is massively increased above 10,000 feet. Engine management is a breeze in the turbos since you don’t need to lean the mixture during climb.
@@NikosWings Thank you for the informative response Niko. Does having twin turbos change servicing intervals? Oil changes? Sparkplug change? Engine overhaul? Do you run synthetic oil? It sounds like you are really happy with this aircraft. It certainly is a beautiful small aircraft, and very fast for a non-retractable. You also have weight savings and lower complexity associated with a fixed gear aircraft.
Niko, What oxygen system are you using? I've noticed the arm attached to your A20's is different than I've seen before.
X3 conserver
Just a quick question, whats your opinion on ELECTRIC AIRCRAFT ? and if you could get distance out of one , would that interest you ?
I drive Tesla all electric cars for the past 4 years and have been driving electric hybrids before then since 2012. Some Tesla cars can go more than 300 miles on a charge which is good for a car but not much for an airplane. Also consider that cars soar with little power requirement and at highway speeds which are very slow compared to airplane speeds. For an airplane to fight the constant drag generated by lift at speeds at least double or triple than a car and to lift the entire weight of the airplane and contents to altitude at at least 1000 feet per minute requires tremendous amounts of energy that battery packs don’t have yet and won’t have for another decade.
Any new videos coming up???
All the time
Niko, do you have a plan for loss of power on takeoff? Do you use Google maps to analyse potential landing site(s) from the runway you use? So golf courses, freeways, beaches, etc etc....
Always a plan for a landing, but best plan is less than 600 feet AGL 30 degrees left or right, alternate airports and landing strips within range, above 600 to 2000 I pull the chute, above 2000 I troubleshoot and if no fix at 1000 I pull the chute.
i've never been this early for a flight
Niko's been in the gym during quarantine.
Nope, but I bought a bowflex with $1.43 (used credit card points lol)
Niko, great video. Long time since I’ve checked in. I have a couple of questions for you. Are you planning to ever transition from a prop to a long-range, multi engine jet? If you do decide to do a different license, would you consider a charter business? Hope all is well. Safe skies to you.🌌
Well, I watch all the commercials on his videos, to further him towards that goal! Baby steps... ;)
Thanks for the ad revenue. Will see what the future will bring.
Niko's Wings Just how far will a penny of Jet A take you? 😄
A penny of fuel won’t take me far but the knowledge shared with you and my all my friends here is priceless.
I only watch to admire your hair. ;) LOL! Though it did get me thinking, you should get Zoe to do your RUclips comment responses! I'm betting she'd be awesome at it. ;)
How many spins is the chute rated for?
Not sure what you mean.
@@NikosWings Say if you stall and get caughth in a spin downwards, how many rotations can the parachute handle? Just curious.
Has it been a year already with N122SZ? Time flies😉😉😉
A year in last December
I doubt you check the autopilot every flight...
On the cirrus it’s a must, in order to proceed you must do it and check it off!!
Every flight, always, no matter what.
Hello Nico I love watching your video number one do you was taking off you mentioned that you are welcoming anybody else would like to deal and make business through your company franchise or some business deal with the new opening market So I just wanted to let you know that I’m interesting and I would like to see the opportunities with your company if you still interesting actually I am working overseas Airline pilot and I do have so many connections with businessman , so are you still interested please send me your private email will go from there.
