    Great video! Finally someone says it correctly, we use flaps for the same lift at lower speeds. We do not need more lift than our current weight.

    why the bottom plane still moving when it is using flap bleed excess energy? U have mentioned the top one does not use flaps n both of them are 80 knots.

    I don't know why a lot people who saying flap helps increase the rate of descent without increasing airspeed
    Q: my instructor told me that drop last flap will helps Aircraft increase rate of descent? I don't think so ( I told my instructor that i fell drop 2nd flap and reduce power that will get more rate of descent to catch glideslope)
    I need help please

    Genuíne question: Could you raise the flaps during a float (when the aircraft is floating on gound effect) to force it down through the ground effect in a case where you feel you have been floating for too long and is loosing runway? Because raising the flaps would result in lesslift thus slowly sinking the plane untill touchdown?

      Hi I’m a pilot and I have a response to your question.
      Raising the flaps during the landing float to force the aircraft down is generally not recommended and is not a standard procedure. Here's why:
      1.Abrupt Change in Lift and Drag-Raising the flaps reduces lift significantly and increases the stall speed. This sudden change can cause a hard landing, potentially damaging the aircraft and causing discomfort or injury to passengers.
      2)Stability and Control Issues-Raising the flaps during the float can affect the aircraft's stability and control. The pilot might have difficulty maintaining a smooth descent and controlled touchdown.
      3.Runway Safety-While it might seem that reducing lift quickly will help the aircraft settle onto the runway, the risk of a hard landing or losing control could outweigh the benefits. It's safer to go around if there is a risk of running out of runway.
      Standard Procedures
      - Go-Around-The standard and safest procedure if you find yourself floating too long and running out of runway is to execute a go-around. This involves applying full power, stabilizing the aircraft, retracting the flaps as per the aircraft’s procedure, and climbing out to attempt another landing.
      - Proper Approach Speed and Technique
      Ensuring you have the correct approach speed and descent rate can help prevent prolonged floating. Approaching too fast is a common cause of excessive floating.
      Exceptions
      In very specific and controlled scenarios, such as in some bush flying techniques with experienced pilots and in suitable aircraft, minor flap adjustments might be used during landing. However, this is not common practice in commercial aviation or general flying for safety reasons.
      In conclusion, while theoretically raising the flaps might help to reduce lift and end a prolonged float, the potential risks make it an unsafe practice compared to the recommended procedure of going around and setting up for another approach.

      @@unidentified5390 Thanks for the response friend. I'm taking my comercial pilot license, I had this on my mind but I feel my CFI is a bit paranoid about safety and doesnt let me try out some stuff with the plane. I know he is being a good pro and would never let me put myself (and him) in danger though. But still I wish he let me do these things just to know what it feels like.

    Lift isn’t produced by directing air down

      You’re stuck in the 1700s 😂 imagine still thinking lift is because the plane is sucked upwards in the current year

    How are you better protected from stalling? Yes the stall speed will be lower but so will the critical angle of attack. When you factor in turning is the window for stalling really increased?

    • @flightinsight9111
      @flightinsight9111  2 года назад +7

      protected in the sense that the stall speed is lower. 'Protected' might not be the best word as yes, as you mentioned critical angle reduces with flaps (not commonly known!). Even in a turn though, stall speed is lower with flaps than without.

    • @MaxPower-zs7we
      @MaxPower-zs7we 2 месяца назад

      I will stall on final at 50kts but with flaps I won’t stall; therefore I’m protected by stalling while using flaps

    I am so glad you say that a wing creates LIFT by Angle of Aback (AOA) not Low air pressure created by air moving faster over the top Curved surface of the Wing. You did in a scenes but not directly that Leading Flaps Increase RATE of DESCENT without increasing SPEED. i.e you can fly Slower with Landing FLAPS.
