My first solo out of the pattern, I returned to Allegheny County Airport and tower told me, "You are number 2 for landing behind the B-17 on short final. Caution wake turbulence!" Pretty incredible to watch that B-17 come in ahead of me and I was DEFINITELY cautious of wake turbulence!
23/23 As a 24 year paramedic, I am sorry for your loss. I HATE to hear these stories. Even though I am not a certified pilot, I enjoy your videos GREATLY! Thank YOU for your service.
23 for 23. This kind of information is invaluable. My father is a very experienced and knowledgeable corporate pilot who once told me that the ONLY scenario that ever made him crash the simulator was wind shear. If we can avoid it, we won't have to fly out of it. Keep in mind that wingtip vortices typically descend at the rate of 300-500 fpm. So even if a go-around airplane passed by 30-60 seconds ago at an altitude of a few hundred feet, you may have to wait before his wake hits you.
Also, if the wingtip vortex of a large aircraft is larger than the wingspan of the plane you're flying, there's NOTHING you can do to fly out of it, because the swirling air you are flying in has completely encompassed the airplane. In those cases, it is sometimes recommended to actually roll INTO the direction of the uncontrolled roll in order to complete the roll faster and get back to straight and level flight.
Here are some great videos about wake turbulence and wind shear.
A Challenger 604 at cruise altitude rolled after encountering the wake of an Airbus A380 flying 1,000 feet higher on the same airway:

23/23 Great reminders. Hit my head on the canopy in cruise flight once. I never did see the aircraft causing the wake. Be aware.
23 of 23! Never apologize for making us safer pilots! Appreciate you!
23/23. Great somber reminder on the importance of wake turbulence avoidance. So sorry for your loss 😢
23/23: excellent reminder about wake turbulence and wind shear
My "windshear" experience happened on final to Rwy 21 in Prescott, AZ way back as a student pilot. A vortex (dust devil) formed in front of me over the approach end of the runway. The problem with this dust devil was that there was no dust! The only clue was what looked like a small plastic bag that shot across and then straight up in front of me. Luckily, I was in and out of it in a second, but it yawed the aircraft enough that I had to go-around. Scary stuff, but SO important to learn! Thanks Jason.

I had a wake turbulence event turning base to final after 2 mile extended downwind for inbound citation. It surprised me and my CFI, as by all standards, it should not have been there. Nice, cool, calm night, and there it was. Handled it successfully and learned a valuable lesson about extending the full 3 minutes before turning in.
Great lesson as always. Experienced en-route wake turbulence during my initial flight training over the deserts of AZ. Instructor and me in a C172 at cruise speed @ about 8000 ft. We get a call from ATC flight following "Skyhawk XXX, 2 fast movers approaching from your 6 o'clock. Maintain altitude and heading." Not 30 seconds later 2 F-15's screamed right above us, gave our little 172 a shake.

Sorry to hear that about your friend. The same thing happened to my dentist about 10 years back.
Your videos are amazing. I enjoy every minute of them. I'm still a student pilot getting ready for my checkride this month. Today, 1/23/2023, I experienced wake turbulence from a larger aircraft. I was in downwind about to land on 35. He was west of me in a twin engine beachcraft. He was booking. He reported 3 miles to join left downwind. I was trying to remember what to do. I said to myself. He's going to drop flaps soon, and he's going to be dirty. I can't outrun him, lol, but I have to give him the right away. I saw him on my left wing. He turn downwind early same altitude. So, I extended my downwind and stayed at a higher altitude. But I had to watch my altitude and distance because my airpirt is in the outer ring of class C at 1,700 and the class C airspace ,G/17, is in front of me about 2 miles. So, I slowed down. I had to remember his wake. (The wind was blowing variable @3kts.) So, I turned base and stayed above his glad path and landed safely. I did feel a little of his wake, but it was very faint. Watching your videos and studying does pay off. I hope many pilots do the same. My instructor and you, Jason, are amazing. When I was doing my mock checkride, another instructor said, "You know more than the other students. How is that?" I told him that I follow MZEROA, and I learned a lot. I said, "A good pilot is always learning." Thanks for the videos.
Don't be sorry. I'm about 4 hours flight time from my Sport Pilot check ride. This was a huge help.
23/23 thank you that you shared personal story. It's better to learn on other people mistakes then your own.
23 for 23, turbulence happened to a friend of mine as he followed me out as we were practicing pattern work. He was not hurt but it got our attention and we are believers. This happened with a c172 and a debonair on a summer afternoon.
23/23 and finally caught up on one of the most challenging topics because you can’t see it! My route took me perpendicular under a departing 737 several thousand above me. My instructor said to expect wake turbulence! No way, I thought! That wake turbulence shook us around a bit several minutes after he passed!
23/23. I'm sorry for your loss. Thanks for the outsanding video, one of the most informative of the series.
23/23. The length at discussing about windshear and wake turbulance should not be compromised. I listened to this topic attentively because we all need to understand the hazards and real accidents that happened from turbulence so we can make better decisions to avoid it and be safer. I'm going review that chapter in the AIM you've suggested before going to sleep.
23 for 23. This video could be life saving information. Watched more than once, amazing 👏🏻
23/23. I'm so sorry for your loss Jason. This account is a typical confirmation of why you repeatedly say "Humble yourself in aviation or aviation will humble you", I use to underestimate the effect of wake turbulence until I saw the kind of vortices generated when a small training aircraft flew through smoke to demonstrate this. The picture of the swirling smoke fumes imprinted a permanent picture of how large and dangerous the wake of larger aircrafts especially the "Heavies" would be. I also believe after heavies, Helos should be next in the categories of aircraft to beware of. I've seen a clip of how a plane spiraled out of control and crashed during takeoff when it flew through the wake of a helo that just landed, turned off the runway and was hovering at a taxiway. It happened so fast the pilot of the plane wasn't expecting what happened. Even I was in shock. I so much appreciate today's discussion, I sincerely hope the lessons of the Safer Pilot Challenge will shape us to become smarter and safer pilots. thank you Jason.
I learned to fly at San Jose International in a Warrior, paid attention to wake turbulence from the very beginning of my training. Landed behind airliners frequently. Always did a go-around behind any Jumbo or 757 for sure! 23/23
23/23 Jason, I'm thankful you did this video. It's imperative that we as pilots understand that the things we learn can and will save our lives. Aviation can quickly turn into a deadly serious business and we have to always have that in the back of our mind.
23/23. So sorry for your loss of a good pilot and good friend. There was a similar accident with a light plane at nearby KSNA when they encountered wake turbulence following a heavy jet on short final. Thank you for this important reminder to always be ready to go around if wind shear or wake turbulence is suspected or encountered.
#23; what a sobering video. Thanks! I was always taught to always keep my right hand on the throttle. I can still remember my instructor slapping my hand off when I was practicing simulated engine failure.
23 for 23. Thanks for the great instruction. I'm enjoying all of these videos.
23/23. Heart breaking story. So sorry for your loss and thank you for your service to the aviation community with these videos. I’ve learned a ton and we’ve got 8 more to go!
some good reminders on wake turbulence and I was NOT aware of the "3 minute" rule. I have just asked to hold in the past and only once have I been to to expedite my take off due to inbound traffic.
23/23
sorry for your loss Jason. It's tough sometimes to keep going. Best thing is faith and cling tight to those who remain. Unfortunately, I say that from experience...too much experience saying good bye lately.
So sorry for the loss of your good friend. Wake turbulence is no joke and I always thought helicopters only created wake turbulence straight down, but only recently did I learn the truth about how helicopters create wake turbulence behind them off the tips of their blades like an airplane. Thank you for this great reminder and God bless Charlie. Hopefully his misfortune will save a life. 23 for 23 Jason. Thanks again.
23/23! Honestly did not know of the 3 minute rule. I’ve experience mid level shear in a Baron. That was a weird uneasy feeling. Low level with my second pax ever. C150 at idle blazing ground speed sinking. I did like you said and put in a couple degrees at a time bank until out of it. That was very nerve racking.
Thanks for sharing all of that info Jason
Sorry to hear about the loss of your good mate. Tragic. Wind is a great topic to always keep in mind.
23/23
I was glad you touched on wind shear regarding having an airliner pass overhead while enroute.
About 5-7 years ago I was southbound in my C-150 @ 3000 MSL, an airliner was descending while northbound and approximately 1000 feet above me.
The airliner was going to be landing at KPDX, I was heading to Woodburn, OR for my annual fly over the tulip fields.
We were perfectly lined up, me southbound, airliner northbound, 1000 foot separation.
I was very concerned about wake turbulence, flying into the airliners’ descending wake. I felt I had nowhere to go. Make a turn left or right, I would still run into the turbulence.
I pictured the wake descending and moving outward. So, I elected to stay my course and hope I was correct.
It worked out well, I never felt even a bump. But, I have always wondered: Did I make the right call, Just get lucky or Was I concerned over nothing?
23/23. Sorry for the loss of your friend. Thankful to learn from your loss.
23X23. So sorry for the loss of your friend. Good lesson. Thanks.
This is one of the most interesting and important episodes you've done.
23 for 23 Very sad story and sorry for your loss. Thank you however for using it as a teaching tool to show that someone can be a good pilot and still get in serious trouble very quickly by not paying sufficient attention to everything concerning the flight.
23/23 2nd year I have watched this series. great stuff. Thank you.
23 for 23. I am sorry for your loss, as a police officer and student pilot, these are always hard to talk about. Thank you for covering this, as my instructor and I haven’t discussed this yet.
23/23! Went out to practice some instrument approaches this morning and got some actual IMC as a bonus!
23/23 Thanks for this, Jason; a touching and important message.
Just blessed to have you share your knowledge and experience. Thank you.
Great job Jason, Yep 23 for 23 and all caught up!
23 for 23! Another great topic. Thank you!
All caught up! I always come away from these videos with great reminders and new things to work on.
Ive been trying to watch your videos every day, I have a couple to catch up on. Great videos!
One of the best videos you've made! Thank you very much!
Caught up to 23 for 23. Thank you Brother!
23/23 outstanding content. We really appreciate it. Thanks for all you do!
23/23. It's always hard to hear stories like these, but they are extremely effective reminders and lessons. Thanks Jason!
I enjoy your videos. Been Flying for about a year and its nice to see a great understanding of each case senecio. Thank you
23/23 Thank you for another great video Jason, I'm sorry for your loss - we talked about the loss of N162AM in my ground school classes. I have experienced wind shear twice on final at a Class C airport, a very uncomfortable situation if you're not ready for it.
I'm current! (I don't always see the videos the day they come out bit I catch up to keep current) Trying to learn what I can even before I start training while I prepare to fight the good fight to pass my medical first...
Quick story I took off once Airport behind a big jet was very busy. I had pressure taking off quick. Did everything possible to see me out of this wake almost finished it I learned something today I can ask for three minutes
23 for 23: My condolences on the loss of your friend. Thank you fro sharing his story to help make all of us safer smarter pilots.
23/23 after catching up from the weekend. NOW, off to do the homework!
Jason, thanks for the further instruction regard shear and wake turbulence. I am a visual learner, for the most part, and watching this video has just given me a wealth of info. I am picking up where I left off 20 years ago in obtaining my PPL flying out of KFMY, where we experience shifting winds and occasional shear at ground level often, especially with inbound weather fronts, and T-storms daily in the summer. I love your videos and the way you present the information. Thanks again. Keep it straight and level.
So sorry to hear about your friend in that wake turbulence accident. Great video, especially talking about wind shear. Many times how to avoid wake turbulence is emphasized, but wind shear is not.
Sorry about your friend’s accident. It is good you bring it up. Very helpful for GA. I started late (January 15) I just got caught up. Now I’m 23/23. That’s for a boat load of good information!!
23 for 23. Great video, Jason I like your comment on the three minute rule I didn’t realize that. Thanks for all your effort.😊
EXCELLENT video. “[My] 3 minutes” is a mantra I’ll take with me. I don’t fly often out of a C or with big aircraft. The key is “often”. I DO occasionally. Thanks for this and the entire series and your entire channel. You’ve been a blessing during my PPL journey.
23 for 23. Have not experienced wake turbulence or aggressive wind shear yet, thank you for this series, knowledge and training is so important to our safety if/when we do run into these scenarios.
Real great presentation. Thank you, Jason. Your enthusiasm is contagious. Wind shear is very real, always plan that every short final may be a go around, one hand on the controls while the other is on the throttle. 23/23
23/23 You cannot over emphasize the seriousness of wake turbulence and wind shear - NEVER apologize for using real life tragedies to make a point!! Thanks Jason!
23/23 very good information. As a PPL Student your videos are a life saver
23/23. What I took away…be ready for as many bad things too happen as you can, but I add my own bit….don’t be paranoid.
23/23! Thank you Jason for the fantastic info!
23/23. Thanks for teaching and sharing. Sorry for your loss.
23 for 23. Thank you! This was a lot of important information today.
23 for 23 Thank you for sharing the story about the accident. It's important to be reminded of things like wake turbulence and wind shear that we typically don't think about until it happens. Thank you for your work with these videos.
23 for 23 so pertinent!
thank you!
23/23. Jason thanks for what you’re doing with these videos!
Awesome video
23 for 23 - this was such a great video! I always wondered what was a good number to wait to take off behind a jet (but haven't been in that situation yet). I will ask for 3 minutes if I ever am. Also have had some crazy windshear experiences.
Damn superb video sir. Helping a lot with my understanding of all the complexities of flight.
23 of 23. Thankfully haven't encountered this YE sorry for the loss of your friend Jason.
23 for 23. I have been flying out of KSFB for the past five years, and fortunately I have never had a wake incident given the airline traffic there. I've forgotten about about the 3 minute rule, but I will make a note on my pre-takeoff checklist as a reminder. Thanks for the lesson!!
As a student pilot while holding short of runway wingtip vortices hit plane in font of me blowing it over I was facing into vortice and managed to stay intact. Once angered atc because I insisted on 3 mile seperation behind heavy hauler. Like hitting a toronado. Sorry to hear of your loss
Catching up Jason catching up great video not somber at all
23 for 23 from Hungary🇭🇺
Had a similar situation that you described Jason on my very first solo.
After my takeoff the plane started climbing like never before, I was like "whoa, this thing can fly" - the combination of the plane being much lighter than before (without the instructor) and a strong thermal updraft...
Same situation on final - the updraft was so powerful I had to literally force the yoke into the panel to make the aircraft descend, but at the same time I was holding onto the throttle for dear life as I knew I could come out of it any moment and fall like the head of an axe without a handle - luckily all was OK, I've made a smooth landing afterwards, but those 20-30 seconds on final before touchdown were very stressful.
23/23. Enroute wake turbulence is what concerns me most. Our home airport is close to Boston so I’m constantly eyeing approaching/descending traffic.
Good stuff
23/23. Jason and MZeroA team- thank you for sharing this. I'm sure it was difficult, but I had not heard about this incident and I appreciate turning this tragic event into a learning situation. I have been good about watching the take off/landing spots of larger aircraft since there are commercial flights at my home airport, but I hadn't thought much about the glide path. I did try to look up the NTSB report on this and was unsure how to find it. Would you direct me on how to search for it? Thank you.
23 for 23! Thank you for sharing Jason. I intend to use my 3 minutes behind a bigger jet
23/23!! Thanks for all your WORK on these! Makes me look forward to getting up! I suggest a 365 day series??? HaHa. Cliff
23 for 23, flew into a front, never forget that experience.
Happened to me. At Grissom AFB Indiana as a student pilot in solo flight. A KC135 was doing touch and goes while I was in the pattern. Hot summer day with no wind. I advised the tower I was extending my downwind to allow more time for wake turbulence. Tower approved. On short final it hit me. Left wing and nose went down and all I saw was the approach end. Maybe because I was worried about it I don't know. I slammed the throttle full and pulled back on the yoke. I will never know how close I came but the tower said close. Control tower guy was one of our instructor pilots. As soon as I regained control I called tower I was going around. His response was "we saw you 15 Foxtrot". Wake turbulence is real. Just ask me.
23 for 23 and absolutely loving this great education.
23/23 Somber but important lesson today, thanks.
23/23 Sorry to hear about your friend! Thanks for the videos.
23 out of 23.
My only wake turbulence encounter was misjudging my turn to final after a 1900D. When I felt the uncommanded roll I knew exactly what was happening and went around.
23-23. Thank you and sorry for the loss of your friend.
23 for 23, great topic and great video, thanks
23/23. Great Review of the basics
23/23. Even as a CFI and aviation professional these are solid refreshers for any pilot…regardless of experience level.
23/23 i missed yesterday’s video but I’m caught up again!
23/23 Good reminders
23/23. Thank you for that video.
I am also sorry for the loss of your friend.
23/23. Thanks for sharing this story
23/23 great tips thank you sir
Interesting
