First time I tried to use the rudder pedals to taxi a Cessna 172, I was all over the place! I was thinking "how can this be so difficult?"🤣 I got the hang of it pretty quickly though!
They don't recommend it in the 777 or 747s but when I was flying the 747 in Africa doing 180 degree turns on the runway because there were no taxiways, I would use differential thrust to turn it around. It was my least favorite thing to do. The 747 manual said it took 158 feet of runway width to do a 180 degree turn yet most of the runways were only 150 feet wide. The concern was running the nose wheel into the dirt and getting stuck in one of the many garden spots of the earth we flew into. Flying in Africa was the hardest, most stressful flying I've ever done. It made the rocket attack in Kandahar Afghanistan seem like a Disneyland ride.
@@adrienrassat1965 a couple years ago after we'd landed and parked the 747, one rocket went over the top of the cockpit and missed us by feet then the second rocket impacted 100 feet behind us at the 7:00 o'clock position destroying a C-130. It wasn't a fun day.
@@askcaptainscott Holy cow. That's definitely one of those classic "I didn't sign up for this sh*t" moments. They're better left on screen though. For a moment there I thought you were chased by a missile in Afghan airspace...
to control the pitch of the aircraft which enables the aircraft to climb or descend by operating the horizontal stabilizers. And also the yoke is used to control the roll of the aircraft to turn the aircraft into a specific heading by banking the aircraft left or right by operating the ailerons at the leading edge of each wing and also by using a series of spoilers.
Thank you!
Didn't realize on a big jet you can also steer with the Rudder pedals to a smaller degree
Been wondering how that works. Thank you…

Thank you for making this video
Thanks you so much after flying several times I didn't know how the aircraft turned left and right
And you know we’ve got the best MED plan for when u get hurt too... that’s sarcasm.
Capt Scott you are in a sim cmon now rip some donuts around that corner, ride some wheelies. Touch and go the GW bridge, pull a Sully.
I know what I'm doing in the simulator today.
What is moving when you move the tiller? What part of the plane makes it turn? Is it just the rudder on the tail?
Theirs a tiller on eBay for 160$ to 200$ to 230$
Is moving that tiller difficult or stiff?
This pilot just jumped out and nobody knows how to fly gotta do what i have too
always wondered, thanks
Awesome👏✊👍
Are you gonna take off now?
Any car company just the same engineer 1990s era Data
How do pilots know the rear wheels are touching the ground first while landing?
A bump
Google "landing flare"
☝️💯👍😍
Is differential thrust ever used for steering in the Boeings?

@@askcaptainscott Wait, what happened in Afghanistan?

Question, on Landing when do you when do you transition to the tiller
Around 20 knots
Clarity of Perception
So what is the yoke for then?
When your in the air
to control the pitch of the aircraft which enables the aircraft to climb or descend by operating the horizontal stabilizers. And also the yoke is used to control the roll of the aircraft to turn the aircraft into a specific heading by banking the aircraft left or right by operating the ailerons at the leading edge of each wing and also by using a series of spoilers.
It makes the plane tilt and roll.
Thank you
