      For me so far taxiing the plane is hard lol way more difficult than the manuevers in the air

    • @irubenguler
      @irubenguler  7 дней назад

      I failed because I didn’t know the maintenance log book as well as I should (bc normally the school takes care of that for us)
      So make sure you know your maintenance log book.
      Then I also didn’t know how to calculate TAS in the plane.

    Wait a minute! Dont be saying there's dpes out here signing "farm boys" off after a few landings! #1 realize there are a ton of crappie young instructors out there but even the crappie ones aren't just signing off private pilots! I grew up flying a 172 off the farm out of a 1200 ft strip. I fired my first two instructors because they were so scared of spinning a 150 they wouldn't even cover stalls properly. Both were young city boys that had ni business teaching but were just building hrs to get to the airlines. #2 i was more competent at handling the airplane than they were because i was good at short field takeoff and landings. Granted i didn't know much about radio procedures or navigation with vors. #3 you never explained why you failed the first time! Waiting for 3 months is not a reason. You should have known up front waiting was par for the course. Tons of videos online about having to wait up to 6 months for a dpe so that was pitiful planning onvyour part. The instructor is the most crucial part of obtaining a private pilots certificate. 80% of all the instructors turned out in the past 10byears are really not qualified to be teaching anyone anything but thats one of many failures with the FAA. One of the biggest crimes in aviation is the fact that these large flight schools keep dpes on the payroll and with the shortage of them in the first place creates a disadvantage for the pilots doing the hard way at a smaller school because they dont have rich parents!

    • @irubenguler
      @irubenguler  11 дней назад +1

      My point was that not all private pilots are the same, some train in much more concentrated circumstances rather than let’s say someone in a farm or country side. Clearly this isn’t pertaining to you so just disregard it.
