As a 37-year ultralight pilot, I can see that Alina is well trained. It's pretty amazing to me to see such a young girl flying. Also I noticed the wires on back of the dash are loose and they need to be taped up or they will break off from vibration. Just a little tip.
Those wires were to her fuel guage that was inop at the time. We didn't need it because her flights at Airventure were short and I re-fueled her often. Now the fuel gauge is fixed.
At about 16:50, what appeared to be a Just Aircraft Super Stol crossing in front of her was very dangerous. The wingtip vortices can flip the little Aerolite in an instant and you can see the Aerolite bounce as it flies through the wake of the other aircraft. I was in a similar situation one time while flying a Cherokee180 on an air to air photo flight with my friend and his Piper Navajo. I had the Cherokee almost at redline flying straight and level while my passenger was taking photos of the Navajo as he maneuvered around us. At one point, he crossed in front of us exactly as in this video and even at full speed, the vortices rolled us close to 80 degrees to the right instantly. I immediately applied full left aileron and it had zero affect until we flew out of the vortices. We were coordinated and had all of the airspeed the Cherokee could muster so there was no danger of a stall/spin. Luckily, we were at almost 4,000 feet AGL so we had plenty of time to recover and regain the altitude lost in the steep bank. I now have a strict rule of never passing behind another aircraft unless the trailing aircraft is at a higher altitude than the leading aircraft so as to avoid wingtip vortices. They are silent and invisible killers. I think it’s wonderful that a young lady like herself is flying and loving aviation. I’m not trying to put anyone down with my comments. I hope she keeps flying and loving it for the rest of her life. I just wanted to take a minute to mention the unintended consequences of wingtip vortices because I have been there when I wasn’t expecting to be and I would hate to see the same thing happen to her or anyone else for that matter.
No veo el futuro, donde está? Veo una niñata, volando en línea recta, a baja altura, en un día sereno, haciendo horas de vuelo que seguro le paga su papi.
I happened to come up with a recommended video on RUclips and watched it. It's amazing that you're young and you've mastered flying skills. A very good soft landing.
I love the videos. Safety ? Refueling while the pilot is strapped in right beside the refueling point may not be all that safe. (I have been strapped in on hot refueling while in helicopters in the army). However, we were wearing Nomex, helmet, visor down, gloves...refueling team was as well. Safety checklist, grounded equipment, fire watch, and so on.
@@elginradtke Maybe, or maybe I have seen someone burned to a crisp from a flash fire during refueling which was caused by a spark of static electricity igniting gasoline vapors. If it saves one person from an event like that, it is worth being called a Karen. Thanks for calling attention to my comment. You may have helped save someone who only tuned in for the name calling. Later, Crusty Kirk "the new Karen"
Alina save time when your teachers ask if you did anything special this summer...just hand them a card with your RUclips channel on it. 😂 You have the skills. Be safe!
Hola Alina espero que estes bien , tremenda sacudida te hizo dar esa avioneta ,cuando vi que te hiba a pasar a esa velicidad sabia que te hiba a pasar eso eso es viento de cola a mayor tamaño mas grande es la sacudida lo que tu hicistes estubo muy bien agarrar el timon con las dos manos sigue asi eso son puntos a tu favor en la experiencia
Who wouldn't want to do that? It's all about money and training. How many flights and years has she been doing this? Great parents. Not many like her's.
She’s 14 years old. From watching another video about her flight to Oshkosh that had her father talking on it it sounded like this is her first year of flying by herself.
Reminds me of yhat movie with Anna Paquin and Jeff Daniels that raise the Geese and try to get them to follow her home so they can migrate . I think its called fly away home.
The turbulence wash seems to be a bit much. Might be safer ways to experience that. Otherwise, as a dad of a daughter, it's enjoyable to watch you two bond during a shared common passion. I look forward to your journey to become an Air Force pilot. Cheers!
Thank you much for the wonderful ride down to the southwest of OSH. Your route back came along the highway I, and many others, use coming to AirVenture from MSN (Madison) as in where Chapter 93 is located. I've notice the beautiful blue and yellow your 103 is "painted" and wonder if that is in honor of the people in the Ukraine? If so what a tribute you are paying to them. Again good luck to you in your aviation/aeronautical career from this 84 year old guy who's not flying anymore, lucky lady; and kudos to Dad too. JimM
Dad put a ballistic chute on her planeyou.can have all the experience in the world but if she has a structure malfunction its gona be a bad deal be safe 2nd chances are better thx fly safe and have fun so.ur daughter comes back every time
Alina, you handled that very well! That little maneuver of crossing in front of you like that was very dangerous and stupid to say the least! I hope that guy got his ass reamed by the FAA. I saw your frame flex hard, that could have ended much differently........
(16:55). Perhaps it’s not such a great idea to get behind another airplane like that. Wake turbulence could lead to very undesirable and dangerous outcome.
I got kinda upset at 16:50, that bigger plane should never come across her like that creating turbulence. Shes in something alot lighter and fragile compared to that other plane. Omg
@@williamh.scottv438 I still believe that was a wrong move. He should've moved across behind her. I don't know all the rules in flying but I'd use common sense and respect for more fragile aircraft. Great vid though, my dad used to do the hang gliding thing and built his own trike long time ago. He's been out of it for awhile now. Thx for the vid. Have fun and be safe.
Henry/Alina, I am very impressed with her flying cross country in her Aerolite 103. I currently do not own an ultralight, but, I am very interested and doing my research. I am more interested in going from place to place, as opposed to just flying around. Which means I would probably need to land at an airport, or, some kind of airfield. I would really like to see a video about the equipment that Alina carries on her Aerolite (radios, etc.) and also maybe a little more information about her doing cross-country flying and landing. Landing procedures, ATC contact, Class E airports, etc. I have looked all over youTube and on the internet and one seems to cover this aspect of Ultralight flying. I know she did a lot of legs going to OshKosh. Where did she land? Anything you can present would be greatly appreciated on cross country flying. Thank you.
I'm glad you are interested, but that list is a tall order. Think of it like drawing a picture of a tree. You don't draw it leaf by leaf...you get the form and proportion down first then add detail as you go In flying if we talk about.. can you fly...before all the details like how you communicate with ATC. If you can fly, teaching you radio usage is a snap With that said I plan on dong some videos that might be helpful in the future.
Congats Alina! Something I always wanted to do and have not yet flown Myself! You Have A Bright Future ! Thanks to you and your Family For Sharing the Experience ! Frank In Upstate N.Y. !
Thank you for your support of Ukraine 🇺🇦 in the existential struggle for our survival as an ethnicity! The blue and yellow color theme of the wings clearly display the Ukrainian flag. Together we will overcome! Слава Україні!
I fly RC planes, i sure wish i had parents who would have helped me do things like this, of course there was not a lot of technology like these days back when I was 14 , there was not even RC flying , there was only string flying i had a Cox P51 for my first plane , it was fun although you could get dizzy it was better than nothing.
Excellent base turnt to the grass landing. Maybe I would refuel without the pilot strapped in, just in case. But that’s just the keyboard lion coming out. I know nothing about ultralights
Always love those tail wind gust. 41 years ago I owned a quicksilver mx weight shift with the mighty 35 horse cuyuna 430r. I've still got the rudder. I'll buy another UL.
Excellent idea to give this passion to mother-in-law so that I finally have peaceful Sunday meals at home. I would also adjust the carburetor and the tightening of the bolts myself. You can never be too careful. 😇
In fact, my real problem is not to interest mother-in-law but to find the structure and an engine powerful enough to take off while remaining in the improbable category of ULM. 🙄
I agree with all the commenters who talked about how dangerously stupid it was for that other aircraft to fly right across your flight path. Your ultralight bounced hard. And I think it was probably only Alina's experience level at that point that kept her from crashing. Many of your videos show your father assisting you when needed. But this was the first time I've ever seen him walk up to your aircraft with such a look of anger on his face. I hope the other pilot was reported to the proper authorities.
Thank you for your concern. It was a planned flight for the purposes of taking video. If I looked angry, I wasn't... Unfortunately, that is my normal face. :)
I'm new to this channel and you are an amazing pilot. I would like to know what aircraft is this and how do you search for a school to learn and what kind of plane to buy. Please fill me in on products. Thanks!
NIce, now for questions: how is her antenna wired? and what hardware is it? On her right what is mounted on that "pole"? Did you teach her on a 2 seat aircraft?
This video is how she was trained ruclips.net/video/7Owxcv4q_4I/видео.html There is a BNC cable from Yeasu 550 to antenna mounted midway on the strut pointing down. There is a garmin 196 on her right.
So happy (and a little wistful) seeing this. I wish I'd had this kind of opportunity at her age.

If I were that young ladies father that other pilot after pulling that manoeuvre well best not said on YT but straws would be needed.
Very dangerous indeed! Obviously there ws a need for more safety briefing... It should have never happened.
Nah, turbulence just makes things spicy, like you're a marble in a clothes dryer.
I have JUST found you and I am completely enjoying your videos.
So much fun.
Lee from Rome, Ga.
I'm glad you like the videos.
Thanks for sharing all of your videos! I really enjoy watching your channel. 😎👍🏻🛩️
You are welcome..I posted them for archival purposes without the intention of anybody watching
She's phenomenal! Cool and collected as Sully!
What a future she has in aviation if she wants it. You go!
Genauso eine Zukunft wie jeder andere Pilot. Was für ein Blödsinn

Usually you don't put gasoline when someone is seated. If it takes fire it could be catastrophic.
Usually..
Yep
Lil lady love ur video keep up the great wrk ur ausum pilot
GOOD VID, min 16:50, the turbulence generate for other airplane, dangerous !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and she is so beautiful!!!!!!!!
Отлично девчонка летает! 👍
I love flying ❤❤❤❤
Bravo miss...you are a good pilot 👌

@16:54 lol nice wake gang. Give them heck Alina!
Flying beautiful have nice day ❤️❤️😮😮
A PTT button wired to the control column would be helpful.
Reminds me of yhat movie with Anna Paquin and Jeff Daniels that raise the Geese and try to get them to follow her home so they can migrate . I think its called fly away home.
Air to air feeling 😍
Nice landing there, a real greaser, would like to see the video taken by the other Aircraft
FELICITACIONES....DESDE LAS MONTAÑAS DE COLOMBIA.......SUERTE
Wonderful channel! You should think about changing the name of the channel to “Alina Air.” Would look great on a t-shirt.
Great video
What aircraft type is this please?
Aerolite 103
you a awsome young lady.best of luck to you
Awesome.
Did you also fly it home?
no. We trailered it.
I imagine after all the flying at the Fly In the last thing she would want is six more full days flying all the way home. hahaha@@williamh.scottv438
Yikes that looked close at 16:50.. were you expecting them to cut in front of you like that?
They were telling her all of their moves over the radio
Wow, thanks. That's a relief and good to know. I was quite nervous for her.
The turbulence wash seems to be a bit much. Might be safer ways to experience that. Otherwise, as a dad of a daughter, it's enjoyable to watch you two bond during a shared common passion. I look forward to your journey to become an Air Force pilot. Cheers!
Good foot work fly that plane Gurl😊😊😊😊
You are some else to see a young plot like you flying 👍
Go Girl Go, 🌹🌹🌹🌹😊
I wonder how much does it cost really.. to own one and learn how to fly... ❤
As a dad I would have found that pilot that crossed her at 16:40 and he would not be able to fly for awhile
It was planned

Thank you for your concern. It was a coordinated event. Wake turbulence from small aircraft is minimal.

Someone is flying with her, probably her dad in a small plan next to het
Nope
It's a plane videoing her.

This plane and how she flies it reminds me of "witchey poo" when she was flying after Jimmy and his magic flute on H.R. Puff N' Stuff. 😁
Such a joy to watch. I’ve flown and owned Airborne Trike and 2 powered parachutes. My next is going to be an Aero!
I want to ask ? What material are the wings and tail of this plane made of?
Sail material.
This young lady is another Amelia Earhart, in the making 👏👏👍
For all we know she could be the reincarnation of Amelia.
