The biggest lesson I'm learning from every single one of your mock check rides is to not talk so much. I can see how it provokes, and maybe even irritates, the DPE to ask more questions or give an applicant a harder time. Kudos to the guys and gals that grant permission to post their mock check rides. So dang helpful
Hey all! I’m the student in the video. Highly recommend doing one of these especially for private. This was 9 days before my checkride. 1. Gave me a good baseline to expose some gaps in knowledge. Your local CFI knows you and your weak spots. you also know your CFI and their things they like to emphasize. It was helpful to have someone who doesn’t know me push on some things. 2. Know your one sentence/one word answers to questions. Then elaborate if they ask. I dug myself in to some holes. I ended up confusing myself. 3. Go back to those early ground lessons/videos. It’s been awhile. 4. Re-read the POH again and again. It makes more sense toward the end of your private training than it did the first time you read it. I’d just been using it to look things up and then re-read it a couple more times and opened up a whole lot of those one sentence answers too. 5. Do a few of these mock check rides with multiple CFI’s it’s worth an hour or two with a CFI. I’ve done two more since and it’s been wildly helpful. Mostly to get used to someone asking you questions and answering. 6. Don’t let one mistake drag you into more mistakes. Slow down and be intentional, just like in the plane. Be safe out there. 7. Find someone who is same place in training as you and study with them. Actual checkride in a few more days and I feel like I’m way better prepared now. It’s not comfortable having someone post what you don’t know but if it helps pilots be better, great!
@@a3ronaut_ nailed the oral portion! Did about 30 more practice orals with my CFI and a buddy I study with. Really refined my one word, one sentence answers
Gyroscopic precession on a Cessna 172 tricycle gear is actually to the RIGHT (right turning tendency) when initially pitching UP. … and it lasts only briefly when you areCHANGING pitch. The AFM says it’s a left turning tendency because they cite its effect on a taildragger when you briefly pitch down during your takeoff roll.
The cheese pilot is the best out there. Very articulate. I can’t stand ambiguous RUclips mock checkrides. Cheese pilot is articulate, precise, and concise.
Thanks for the videos. I listen to these as I'm driving to and from work. I use these before and after my study sessions, on the way to the airport for a lesson. Best ppl content. Thanks Mr Cheese.
Hey! Your videos are great! I was supposed to have my PPL checkride on the 22nd but the night before got rescheduled to this upcoming Tuesday. Your videos have really helped me study and find little areas that I needed to touch up on. And you make it enjoyable and not hard to watch
Thanks for these videos, I’m at 30 hours getting close to my check ride… my Garmin pilot does change colors with active areas, must be a setting to make it work I’d guess. Side note: Chicago is KORD because originally it was named Orchard field due to… an orchard grove in the area, it was changed to honor WW2 pilot Butch O’hare, don’t remember the year. I’m based out of KARR and yes, the winds get interesting this time of year…
@1:20:35 the student answered correctly. It’s the lower wing that will stall first since the fuselage will be blocking the relative wind in the “skid” you demonstrated. Reference: m.ruclips.net/video/RKfG3lWCZ80/видео.html @4:44 visual demonstration of slip and skid.
If you wanna fly the 15 0 Radial to the VOR, TUNE, ID, then dial your OBS with 150 on the bottom of the OBS with a TO indication. The reciprocal will simply be positioned on the TOP of the CDI (330). No math required.
Love the videos, again, but I think the concept of gyroscopic (?) is hard to understand, even with the bike example. Just trying to be helpful. I'm struggling to get my head around it despite hearing it explained from 4-5 different people. Would a good analogy be spinning a merry-go-round, then setting a soccer ball on it? It would fly out 90 degrees from the "impact" of the torque.... or maybe I'm not getting the underlying concept. But the bike analogy just doesn't help me, sorry. Or, perhaps, spinning up a motorcycle back wheel, then setting it down in gravel.... it will kick the debris 90 degrees from the point of impact or torque applied (in this case resistance of the gravel)? Maybe it's just me, but trying to find a way to simplify it which makes sense to me. Thanks!
@@cheesepilot Of course. For me, just trying to find an analogy that I can get my head around. So, if it's fundamentally sound, I think I understand it.
Hey man, good stuff. I'd be willing to do a recorded mock check ride if you need someone in a few months. From S. Wisconsin, started a few weeks ago but moving ahead quickly. I'm not willing to pay for a mock, as I have other free resources, but primarily asking in case you're looking to fill content. If not, all good and thanks for the videos.
haha i do definetly need to work on my language years as an infantryman kinda made it common place almost used it as a comma or some other deranged form of punctuation

How did it go?

@@PhilBrown-sg5nb did you do ur checkride?
@@PhilBrown-sg5nbdid you pass?
Hey all, I did pass my checkride! Now a PPL working on instrument.
Got my PPL last Wednesday. Your videos helped a ton. Thanks for all the free prep content.
Thanks for showing up and watching. Don't forget to subscribe. I do all checkrides except type ratings
Passed written today! Thank you!

Got my PPL today. Love all the work you do. keep it up. I watched hours of your videos yesterday to get me prepared and they did.

Hey! Same here. 👋👋👋
Love these videos man, massively helpful for filling gaps in knowledge. Hope you make this a series!
This was way in depth. Harder than my stage 3 check. Good video. Weather was a little light, but good overall.
Awesome mock check ride! Really good, thank you!

VFR flew into IMC. I’m IMC. Requesting vectors to VMC.
Cheese pilot seems like a chill guy
I try hahaha 😊
Super helpful!
Sick content brother🔥🔥 keep at it
KOEL = Manufacture issued. MEL = FAA approved. Most GA airplanes don’t have MEL, cuz they’re a pain in the ass to get approved by the FAA.
Yes!...Garmin Pilot shout-out!

the merry go round would probably be the closest example of how it works i might steal that from you tbh

@@cheesepilot hmm for some reason it works on my phone but not on my desktop, thank you!
Do you offer mock checkrides for students? Happy to pay.
Yep head to trainingwithcheese.com for more info
Do DPEs actually say the F word like you do?? LOL

Nothing in the regulations about not dropping a fuck here and there. It conveys passion and conviction.
To be a sales Man U need 200 hrs don’t you?
yep
As soon as practicable…..not practical.
