Hi Capt. Guido. Another awsome video. This time w/ co-pilot👍. Hope you`ll present us w/ another one before christmas. If not, receive wishes of a merry christmas & a happy 2023 with happy landings votes from Portugal
Mr. Warnecke, I have just watched about 15 of your videos for the last several hours. I’ve been following you for around ten years now. I have watched many pilots over the years. Sadly in my 20’s I got training all the way up to a few solo flights. I went up and the winds picked up well beyond forecasted winds. My home airport at the time was w52 now called kigx. Tree line pretty close to runway and with the cross wing I had a lot of turbulence as the wind came over the wood line. After two go arounds it really rattled my nerves so I broke out of the pattern and just went straight and level to get my nerves settled, my hands were shaking it scared me so bad. I got on the what if repetitive thinking and started feeling panicked. Being alone and lacking confidence. Ten years later then age early 30’s I retrained, soloed several more times but I could never shake my fear and I did a three point hard landing being so self absorbed in my own thoughts. I’ve been so in love with flying my whole life and these failures to finish have been one of my biggest regrets in life. I’m now 52 and doubt I can overcome my fear that has been so deeply entered into my internal memory banks. I settled on a career of being a air medical dispatcher for a large North Carolina hospital. I’m humble but honestly I was told many times I was the best in my job by many people along the way. Many communicators I trained about flying I used your videos in their training. I would say if you can be as good as a communicator as this gentleman is a pilot I would sign off on them being released as a competent dispatcher with my name behind it. Not many made it past our standards of perfection as you I do not compromise in any way. I just retired after 30 years in that line of work. I tell you this to explain to you the deep gratitude I have for all you have taught me over the years. I so wish to be a pilot and own my own plane and if I ever do, you sir are the role model that I would strive to be like. Sheer professional and all business when it time to go flying. To say I have the deepest respect and admiration for you would be a grand understatement. If you are ever in North Carolina or Virginia and have a lay over I would love to meet you. I hope you take to heart how many people like me who get to go flying because of your selfless hard work you share with those of us out here that are unable to fly for many reasons but love flying. I just wanted to thank you so much from my heart! You are a very special member of the aviation community! You’ve always got a friend in North Carolina if ever I can be of service to you because you have brought many joys to my life experience. God bless you and keep you safe in your travels.
Thank you. The aircraft is certified for single pilot operation. in some applications, e.g. charter flights with passengers, some countries require 2 pilots. Happy Landings, Capt. Guido
@guido - Before Landung on a dirtstrip, I always prefer doing a low flyover to check conditions for debris and holes. but sounded like you got a local copilot familiar with the area with you! safe Landings
Hi Frank, we did a fly over (cut out of the video) to check for wind, runway condition and to chase animals away. Best would be always to have a person on the ground, but we did not have this. Happy Landings, Capt. Guido
Great as always, thank you! Why aren't you allowed to touch the flap lever on runway when in single pilot operation? Is it to prevent a subconscious false retraction on take off roll?
@@trizzleseven in any aircraft it is advisable to maintain standard procedures. Any pilot flying a fixed gear aircraft might have the desire to fly a retractable gear one day. Happy Landings, Guido

@@GuidoWarnecke As a matter of fact, I worked in the area (Phalaborwa) for a short while back in the 80's, and my first flight as a passenger was in a Comair F28 from that airport. That flight would land at Skukuza and then head on to OR Tambo.
Maybe a weird question but do you see the nose of the plane during the flight? Iam asking cause I fly them in the mfs and I want to fly her as realistic as possible
I apologize for the late reply Dennis. The view is somewhat obstructed by the front of the aircraft. In the sim you might be able to shift your point of view somewhat upwards, try it out. That will make the landings easier. Let me know if this works for you. Happy Landings, Capt. Guido
Hi Jay, In a turn you have to control airspeed very careful. Some pilots say you should not extend flaps in a turn because of the possibility of an asymmetric flap extension. Most aircraft have a protection against this and stop flap movement if an uneven extension is detected. I would say as long as you control the airspeed in a turn it is ok to lower the flaps also. Happy Landings, Capt. Guido
If you have a moment for a question - why do you suggest that a single pilot not touch the flap lever on the runway. (I have some ideas, but as a student, I'd prefer to not potentially confuse myself.) Thanks for the detail and insights, plus the flights into amazing places like this!
Ed besteht die Gefahr, dass man statt den Klappen das Fahrwerk einfährt. Glaubt man nicht? Ist schon oft passiert. Ablenkung kann single Pilot leichter passieren als Multi-Crew. Aber am besten ist immer: nach dem Abrollen auf der Bahn das Flugzeug zum Stillstand bringen und after landing checks machen. „Say-look-touch“. Flaps identified and UP. Happy Landings, Capt. Guido
Hi Sergey, The problems arises if you fly an airlift with a retractable landing gear. More than once, pilot searched to the wrong lever and retracted the landing gear instead of the flaps. So it is about preventing to learn bad habits. In certain situations you can do this, but be careful. See this video: ruclips.net/video/NtRRBOcgjM8/видео.htmlsi=5tW5I_H9ldk0hPRf&t=141 Happy Landings, Capt. Guido

The view is somewhat obstructed by the front of the aircraft.
In the sim you might be able to shift your point of view somewhat upwards, try it out.
That will make the landings easier.
Let me know if this works for you.
Happy Landings,

Interesting…. That one has been modded with a 4 blade propeller?
Hi Adrian, a Blackhawk engine with a 4-bladed prop has been added.

Captain, I've heard on RUclips that it's not wise to extend the flaps in a turn. What's your say on that?
Hi Jay,
In a turn you have to control airspeed very careful.
Some pilots say you should not extend flaps in a turn because of the possibility of an asymmetric flap extension. Most aircraft have a protection against this and stop flap movement if an uneven extension is detected.
I would say as long as you control the airspeed in a turn it is ok to lower the flaps also.

If you have a moment for a question - why do you suggest that a single pilot not touch the flap lever on the runway. (I have some ideas, but as a student, I'd prefer to not potentially confuse myself.) Thanks for the detail and insights, plus the flights into amazing places like this!
Common thought is to avoid inadvertantly reaching for and selecting gear up. That's a rather embarasing insurance claim to have to file :/
Exactly!

Noticed that the speed indicators have different scales, is that normal?
Well spotted Luis. The airspeed indicators were repaired already.
The left one is the correct one.

The power Black Hawk engine makes a difference
Correct. Especially in “hot & high” airports.

Great video Herr Warnecke. Warum sagen Sie, dass ein einzelner Pilot die flaps nach dem Landung nicht heben sollte?
Ed besteht die Gefahr, dass man statt den Klappen das Fahrwerk einfährt. Glaubt man nicht? Ist schon oft passiert.
Ablenkung kann single Pilot leichter passieren als Multi-Crew.
Aber am besten ist immer: nach dem Abrollen auf der Bahn das Flugzeug zum Stillstand bringen und after landing checks machen. „Say-look-touch“. Flaps identified and UP.
Happy Landings,
Capt. Guido
Why refrain from touching the flaps as a single pilot?
Hi Sergey,
The problems arises if you fly an airlift with a retractable landing gear.
More than once, pilot searched to the wrong lever and retracted the landing gear instead of the flaps.
So it is about preventing to learn bad habits.
In certain situations you can do this, but be careful.

@@GuidoWarnecke Thanks for the insightful reply!
Hi sir, where are you from? I'm really to be a pilot, but now I don't finish my high school. One day, I hope meeting with you. I'm Sem Sangvat, from Cambodia 🇰🇭.
Best of luck for you professional career Sangvat.
Greetings to Cambodia & Happy Landings,

speed indicator seem not to agree?
Well spotted!
There was a malfunction in the static system.
The left ASI was the correct one.
