    FAR 61.56(f) exempts flight instructors (as long as they renew their certificate according to 61.197) from the 1 hour ground portion of a flight review. I still think it’s a good idea regardless to review ground subjects. Love the vids. Will definitely be using Nick’s Flying Eyes promo code lol

    I naturally grew up with motion sickness all my life in cars, boats whatever. Got sick all through my private training and after trying nearly everything those sea bands finally did the trick. They’re great for anyone who easily gets motion sickness.

    Ahoy, fellow Cessna Captains! Another excellent video!
    Just a minor barnacle to pick, I believe in the Skyboat we should refer to our altitude in Fathoms instead of feet.

    Hello 👋. Loving the videos. I don't know if I'm right but at 20:35 it seems the controller told you to go around to make room for another aircraft further behind in the sequence. I was under the impression that this wasn't allowed and the controller should have vectored the other aircraft instead. E.g: a controller can't kick a slow Cessna out of the approach to make room for a faster Boeing further behind in the sequence. If it comes to it the Boeing should perform the go-around and the Cessna should continue their approach.
    If someone could shine some light on this that would be great. Sincerely, an aspiring pilot from the UK

    • @LewDixAviation
      @LewDixAviation  2 года назад +1

      I believe it was a King Air, I can’t quite remember. But I was baffled that I was instructed to go around because I was short final and would have been out of the way. It was unnecessary in my opinion. But it wasn’t the place to argue. I had the fuel available to make the go around and return safely so it’s not a huge deal, but definitely unnecessary.

    My DPE did the same thing on the slow flight. We were at 2500. He tells me “climb to 3500 holding this speed.” Couple minutes later. “Ok 3000 is good enough”. Lol

    Motion Sickness!!! Allow me to tell, Ginger saved me from that. but, the actual root boiled in water and then drink. it tastes like hell!!! but, really works.

    I hope this can help someone, because it helps me to continue my training.

    You not gonna belive it but I have done many steep turns like this:)) since almost always the heading gindicator is INOP and attitude indicator is usually inaccurate or faulty in our Traning Aircrafts :))))) So I tried to perform Instrument Steep turn and I end up just doing it by mantaining G-Force Feeeling

    15 years after selling the aircraft and began to miss it. Maybe I just want to know if I still have it. Wasn't bad in the day. Maybe I just want to fly with a cfi. New technology will be challenging.

    A good BFR.
    If I can offer some feedback myself:
    I love that you guys are having fun. And I would never ask you to not, except to say: Please, do not goof off when there's anyone on the radio. Your situational awareness is what keeps you alive, and maintaining it is absolutely a perishable survival skill. You need to be aware of your own calls just as much as everyone else around that field.
    I've literally had to blacklist students from my own operation from visiting a nearby towered field because of how often the [major 141 training operation] crews are talking over radio and missing their own calls. Been too many close calls and near misses, and if we weren't listening out for them we'd be in a ditch long ago.
    It's a difficult thing to do as a CFI, specially at a busy field, but there's no world where it's not a healthy habit to get into.
    Still, love your videos, and I'm gonna practice the evacuation routine a few times with my commercial guys! (I have a private field available)

    I don’t have too much test anxiety, but a lot of people do. You should do a mock checkride with an actual student close to their ride. If possible (and I know that’s a big “if”), with an actual DPE. I think students are hesitant to believe the wisdom of a DPE being a first passenger and not trying to trick you, and it’s not until after their ride that they realize, “Holy Crap! I really had nothing to worry about, after all!

  • @spelldaddy5386
    @spelldaddy5386 2 года назад

    This is great, I was not disappointed at all. I especially love the evacuation, I didn't realize you do a real evacuation on the ATP checkride. The problem that I have with the flight review system in general though is that the CFI can literally do whatever they want, whether or not it is critical, with very few regulations. This is a great video, but where is the pattern work, for example, showing different kind of landings? Where are the stalls? What about commercial maneuvers? If you didn't call it a flight review, I never would have known that's what it was

      And you think that's bad, just wait until an asymmetrical flap failure occurs - where one side extends but the other doesn't. Talk about a frightening situation while flying low and slow.
