- Опубликовано: 27 окт 2023
- The BASICS on operating an Aircraft! These are some of the most important things you should know when it comes to operating a Cessna 172 and just about every other training airplane out there! In this video, I explain Carb icing, how to use mixture control, how to operate a constant speed propeller, how to perform a walk around inspection and much more!
This is Private Pilot Ground lesson 60! This training is intended to follow the aeronautical knowledge areas in Part 61.105 section b for single engine aircraft.

Josh! I passed my ppl on the 17th of October, your content and tips were very helpful. The way you break info and maneuvers down to the simple basics is wonderful. thank you so much for your content!!!!
Thanks Jeffrey! And congrats on that huge accomplishment!
Congratulations
Congrats!!!🎉
hey that’s my birthday, congrats
Josh, I wanted to thank you again for these videos. I've watched most of these 60 Lessons and they've been a great help.
I'm from Jamaica, currently in my second week of ground school knocking out my curriculum's exams and aiming to take the PPL Written by the end of February.
Thanks again for the free content you've provided, God bless.
You’re welcome! Glad to have you on the channel
his is by far one of the most helpful videos/advice for aviation newbies. Thanks for the effort josh!!!!!
You’re welcome! Thanks for this comment!
Another great video! Thanks for this!
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching
Simple and understandable that’s all! Love your videos man! Thank you!!
Thanks! I appreciate that!
Thanks for all the videos man, appreciate the effort you put into them!
You’re welcome!
Excellent video.
Thank you for the lesson.
Thanks!
Awesome thanks
No problem!
Excellent video Josh. Your videos really do a great job of explaining the information in a way most people can understand. Keep up the excellent work. Safe skies my friend 🇺🇸🛩️
Thanks Kevin!
Been binging your videos a ton haha. Hoping to start pilot training in the spring at vero beach for delta. Super pumped. 😁
Awesome! Thanks man! Enjoy the journey!
Really appreciate your tips, looking forward to tips for a flight review if you have most important. Thanks.
You’re welcome!
thanks for these videos! when are the next 2 coming out?
You’re welcome! Might be a couple months. I’m working on them, but I’m also building a house and also making some other Free Pilot Training videos that need to come out first
Nice video! It'd be helpful to include temperature conversion into Celsius for the international viewers, though..
Thanks! I usually include Celsius. I worded it this way in this video because that’s the way they do it on the FAA written exam. I’ll try to pay attention and include that next time
any chance you could make instrument videos? Entering holds can be so difficult to grasp. nonetheless, I appreciate your hard work and dedication to educating the world and making us safer pilots!
You’re welcome! I’m hoping to work on those eventually. I have a couple more videos to wrap up first
At my flight school, one of the planes had 2 CUPS OF WATER IN THE SUMP CONTAINER in the middle of the day. My least favorite thing to do on preflight is sumping because I dont like touching leaded fuel but ill keep doing it before every flight even if multiple students used it before.
Another great video! Are you still doing the two more as planned?
Yes I am. I’m currently working on both of them
@@FreePilotTraining thanks look forward to it!
Josh my man! Just finished watching your entire PPL course and I plan to take my PAR test at the end of the month. Are there any important test topics that are not in this course?
Awesome! The only things that are missing are Airport Lighting and markings, how to use the traffic pattern, and what to do with the yoke while taxiing in the wind. I’m currently working on all three of these videos
Great content. Enjoying the series. I was reading that military members and dependents can take the written test for free at base education centers that offer it and saw that the base my wife is stationed (Aviano) offers the airman knowledge test. I’m trying to get a head start before we move back to the US this summer so I can go right into working on my PPL. Do I have to pay for an online ground school just so I can get an endorsement to take the test?
Thank you! You will have to get an endorsement from an instructor or a ground school. Unfortunately, I’m not set up yet to give out endorsements. Maybe in the next few months that will change
My checkride is coming soon !! Really nervous ! Any tips and advice ?? Also how should I be studying since it’s weeks left till my checkride now ? What resources should I use ! Let me know josh
Well, my ground course is designed to cover all that material, but I recommend focusing on airspace, required equipment, chart symbols, maintenance requirements, and performance.
Cool
Thanks!
Magnetos are “snap magnets” which operate the same way a lawn mower ignition does. Aux fuel pumps on high wing are generally used on fuel injection equipped engines due to the intake fuel pressures required. The engine driven pump on these type of engines also produce a much higher pressure. Remember also to keep the airplane clean to minimize corrosion and keep the propeller clean using only prop wash. 👍
Thanks for the comment! I didn’t think about the fuel injected systems having the additional pump
@@FreePilotTraining the fuel injection inlet pump has a higher pressure than a normal system. Therefore, I believe it requires an additional boost pump for starting to get that portion of the system pre-pressurized. On a bonanza and some other models, they actually have a two speed pump where you have a low and a high setting. usually you use the low setting for changing tanks in the high setting for priming. The best way to prime an engine is to open the throttle full and the mixture full. Run the pump 3 to 5 seconds then shut the pump off. Then I pull the throttle back all the way to the retard position and I leave the mixture around 1/3 open. As soon as the engine fires, I can move the mixture to full rich and you don’t get that loud chug with a lot of black smoke. Basically the engine will start spinning like an electric motor on its own without any hard vibration or excess torque when you don’t exactly have the oil pressure needed. This is gentle on your engine. Think of the mixture, lever, being a condition, lever, and moving it to ground idle. As soon as the engine, then fires up, you move it into high idle. By the way, I am not jet certified, nor have I ever flown a turbo prop. I just read about it.
Are you starting a instrument series after your last 2 private series videos as you mentioned?
I definitely have plans to do so, but I’ve got a lot going right now, so it’s probably going to be a while
22:25 😂😂😂😂
Lol
Did you say " fuel is lighter than water so it sinks to the bottom"?Doesnt heavy sink to the bottom?
He’s talking about the water, the test locations are at the lowest points where water pools as it sinks
The water sinks to the bottom. Sorry for the dangling modifier lol
This dosen't really relate to the video, but I was wondering if you know. Do I have to be a CFI to create my own youtube channel where I teach people the different gound training things like aerodynamics, weather etc. I love how you make the different topics of ground school interesting. I have my ppl and your videos motivate me to try and start my own channel. Can I without my CFI?
There’s nothing that says you need to be a CFI to teach someone about aviation. That training just can’t be used towards the written exam or the check ride. So, you couldn’t endorse someone to take their exam. It doesn’t hurt to make extra training videos though
Although I know about the danger of the engine starting when hand-turning a prop, I've been doing that as part of my preflight inspections so I can see the alternator belt.
The other day I actually caught that the belt was just about to snap on the plane I'm training in, something others definitely missed.
What do you think? Still more dangerous to hand turn the prop even if I'm aware of the danger and being careful?
If you know about the mag wire and possible “kick over,” and you move the prop with the knowledge that you might need to get out of the way quickly, you can do that safely. If you’re careful and stand back a little when you do it, it’s fine
Sounds good! Thanks for the reply and a huge thank you for all of your videos.
