    I've seen a LOT of different "Teaching" videos on RUclips and I have to say, this is the first one I have recommended to friends. The combination of information, camera angles, and the amazing editing you did by inserting taxi diagrams etc was just fantastic. I have seen a lot of King videos and even met John and Martha and your stuff is even better. Keep up the great work brother.

    Captain Scott, what a fantastic explanation of someone's first flying lesson! You explained things so clearly with ease! I think you must get a new Sub for this! Thanks! I had to give up my training due to health, so now I try to immerse myself in it online for pleasure and to live my passion through others. For this, I'm very appreciative! Thank you! 🙏👌

    This video is just awesome captain! I got an idea of how to communicate and that's great! I've already seen some videos of you - "Do pilots need a degree". What is the great part is that, I've learnt many things from this video! Hope to see many videos further! Please make videos for us!
