  • (Please Subscribe to our Channel!) If you're learning to fly or a seasoned pilot, DPE Joe Casey returns to talk about the dangerous difference between slipping an airplane and skidding an airplane. One is a useful tool, the other can quickly get the pilot killed. Understanding the airflow and the blanking of the wing can mean the difference. Also learn how to recover from a spin.

      Wow, I knew which one was the dangerous one and frankly use slips always, but this was the best explanation I have seen of the difference. Totally agree with the guest, slips are incredibly useful tools especially to lose altitude if you come in too high on final and want to dump some altitude without increasing speed

    As a Cropduster flying extremely low to the ground in extremely heavy airplanes usually no more than 300 feet flying under powerlines at 180 mphAnd doing over 300-600 wing over hammerhead turns a day , also being an Aerobatic competition pilot ,an ex CFI That has trained 38 pilots from start to finish how to fly ,with close to 10,000 hours now ,2000 hours as a Flight instructor my number one piece of advice is take basic aerobatic training which includes advanced spin recovery and emergency manoeuvring training is the single greatest thing that you will ever do for yourself as a pilot !! the moment that airplane reaches a 90° bank angle you need to know to be pushing forward on the controls and be very comfortable flying in the inverted world! it’s just like when the neighbours dog runs in front of you your natural reaction is to hit the brake pedal in an airplane your natural reaction is to pull back on the stick which is a death sentence once you become inverted you need to be trained enough to know that you need to be pushing forward on the stick and continue the roll back to level and you have a chance to recover from this low level spin recovery. there’s no way I can Express to you the importance of basic aerobatic training ! it’s not a waste of money it’s just like learning to drive your car sliding around in the parking lot on ice ,if you don’t do that there’s no way you’re ready for it out on the roads ! same thing in an airplane you need to go exposure self to these inverted conditions to be comfortable with it to give yourself a fighting chance if anything ever goes Wrong close to the ground , you have the tools to give yourself a chance to survive!!!

    10:20 when you turn to the left, it is the right aileron that goes down, not the left. So the right wing would have the higher AoA.

    • @richardweil8813
      @richardweil8813 3 года назад +11

      It is scary that you didn't get instruction in this. This is why it is so important to not skid in the pattern. Slips are fine for crosswind or losing altitude fast, but a skid on that base to final turn...no altitude for recovery.

    • @starjetpilot
      @starjetpilot 3 года назад +4

      a skid would require way too much rudder. If you give the correct amount of rudder, or close to it, it only results in a turn. You would have to purposely do a skid for some reason. I can't think of a reason.

    • @thomaswayneward
      @thomaswayneward 2 года назад +1

      Low and slow base to final turn, trying to push the nose around with the rudder because you are late to the turn, no or little bank = disaster.

    • @michaelrunnels7660
      @michaelrunnels7660 3 года назад +2

      Bank at any angle is not inherently dangerous. Why do people think it is? I watch aircraft all day long bank 90 degrees in the traffic pattern (military fighters). In the 40 years I've been watching them I've never ever seen any kind of problem, even with student pilots on their first fighter solo. Why does a 60 degree angle of bank in the pattern scare the beggeezes out of civilian pilots? Is it because most civilian pilots fly uncoordinated turns because they never learned to turn properly? Or is it because it scares the hell out of your instructor and he makes sure his fear is passed on to you? I've watched dozens of aerobatic pilots stall and spin at pattern altitude, then pull out level 400 feet lower than they started. I've spun production aircraft many times and recovered in less that 400 feet. I've watched crop dusters bank 80 degree 150 feet above the ground all day long. Why does flying scare so many civilian pilots? I think it's because a modern private pilot was never taught how to fly the airplane correctly. I don't blame them, though. Usually their instructors didn't know how to fly the airplane correctly. How can they teach something they don't know?

If I got current again there would be a number of other holes in my skills, but I don't think this would be one of them, or at least would come back to me more easily.
