Thank you for being such an inspiring person I'm just gonna start studying to be a pilot at a university and thanks to you I already know a lot of basics!
Hey Joe, I just ran into Michelle at my CRM class at Maldivian Airlines. Just wanted to let you know :D Didn't know she'd join our airline haha thumbs up so Joe can see this guys
Sir I am from India ...& I am interested to work as aircraft technician in Canada..can you advise me??? Actually I am not a TC Approved AME but want to work in aircraft MROs in Canada at a entry level job...
The travel lane explanation of the CDI needle, is perhaps the simplest I have ever heard about the way the needle functions. Good nugget to take away there!
ooh no no no I have to say this.. your way of teaching has blowing my mind! it is way way better than any other instructor of radio navigation so far!! congratulation Joe keep going like this . Wish having you in my school one day teaching us!
Hey Captain Joe. I am a regular follower of your RUclips channel and I'm not even a pilot. If you did not possess such a passion for flying, you could be a motivational speaker. Your communication skills, personality and sincerity already qualify you for the job. If you retire from flying, I would like to encourage you to consider this.
He's a piece of shit for doing it no matter what. Fucking driving while having his attention less than half on the road like a fucking piece of shit risking EVERYONE'S life.
I was shown that VOR beacons work from rotating phase shifts related to the base signal. Scott Manley confirms this in a recent video - but the lighthouse analogy is an effective teaching aid, if not technicaly correct.
Captain Joe has arisen from the silence and has given me useful info that 8 shall definitely use in the future once I'm a pilot. Thanks Captain Joe. 😊😎
As a former AeroMed in the USAF (1968-1971) I have to disagree with you. The best pilots ever were those flying the C-9 Nightingales. No matter the conditions, their touchdowns were always smooth as a feather because of the patients they were transporting.

Thank you so much for this video! I’m in ground school right now and the way I was taught it made absolutely no sense. After watching this video, I feel a lot more confident and VOR seems much less intimidating!

I'm in California, but when you said "Kempten VOR" I physically jumped a bit because it startled me so much. It doesn't happen every day that someone says the name of my home town! :)
What's that? Could it be!? YES! IT'S 'CAPTAIN' JOE!!! Thanks for explaining this, my local airport has one pretty close to it and I've been wondering what it is. Joe, what are your thoughts on Boom's Overture? D'you reckon it's possible to reach supersonic speeds without reheat technology? Would Overture have to go into a shallow dive? How would turbofans cope with mach 2 flight? What about the stress on the engines? How hard the engines work after achieving supersonic speeds would be related to how efficient Overture's airframe is (I think Concorde can maintain mach 2 flight without using the afterburners), correct?
Several manufacturers do indeed make flight-tested receivers capable of using signals from multiple constellations. They are generally sold as GNSS (Global Navigation Satelite System) receivers as that is the standard term for any satellite navigation system providing global coverage. Such multi-constellation systems not only benefit from redundancy but can provide superior accuracy in general with more data it's possible to solve for the position at higher precision with the same confidence threshold. This is simply due to the fact that there are a bunch of statistical techniques to detect, quantify and even filter out random noise in ordered data, and these work better the more data points they have to work with. The satellite signals are ordered data about which precisely the sorts of assumptions needed to make those techniques work can be made (Basically these techniques rely on the data having known internal dependencies which satellite navigation data signals do all times are related by the physical constant c for example).
He labeled it wrong on the right, but he did say "VOR TACAN symbol" or VORTAC, which for military aircraft, can just be used as a typical TACAN station. The VORTAC symbol looks more similar to a TACAN symbol than the other VOR symbols because all a VORTAC station is is a TACAN station with VOR bearing capabilities.
Don't be too sad. There's tons of electrical engineering jobs in the avionics industry. I'm a software programmer for an avionics company and I still get to learn a ton about airplanes and helicopters. I even get to make virtual instrument panels that look and behave like the real thing!
You can still become an aeronautical engineer if you work for an aerospace company! An electrical engineer is a aeronautical engineer if he/she works with aircraft. In fact, getting an electrical/mechanical degree is generally more recommended than an aerospace degree as it is broader and allows you to find work in more places.
You're not alone comrade... Wanted to be an aerospace civilian engineer. Entry exam went wrong. Now beginning physician bachelor (and hoping to enter space sciences master) ((and maybe with luck, hope and determination ... ending with physician civilian engineering year))
Another great video, well done explaining VOR in a way anyone could understand. Hope no one called the police saying they spotted a drunk driver when you were weaving around on the road lol.
VHF Omnidirectional Radio beacon The R is not for Range Range is a separate signal from separate equipment and can be either civilian DME (vhf) or military TACAN(UHF) labeled on charts as VOR/DME or VORTAC All three items can also be located as separate installations,
I love the VOR.They are the best way to navigate.I use GPS as a second back up.I use my sectional chart,VOR than I use GPS.I use them all at the same time.They each cross check each other.
Thank you, but I am guessing you were not asked or had a say-so in the financing of the US GPS. Things like this just get decided over the US taxpayers head (or even behind their backs) - some call it the *industrial military complex* en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military%E2%80%93industrial_complex , which Eisenhower warned early on about: ruclips.net/video/8y06NSBBRtY/видео.html Fortunately other countries also have satellites in place.The EU for example has the Galileo system: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galileo_(satellite_navigation) It is accurate down to 0,2m precision! Read who has been and is financing the project at the moment! You are welcome :-)
US GPS, European Galileo, Russian Glonass, even a chinese one coming up. They're all available at the moment and it's unlikely galileo will turn the light out. (compared to GPS/Glonass). Note that GPS is already preventing usage in some area of the worlds or intentionally reduced precision. Also, they charge you for anything more precise than 20m on ground (that's why sea swimmers are complaining when using smart watch as it doesn't show their path very well :D)
You spread positivity just by talking, even if you're talking about VORs.
You're truly a good person.
Police: "so how did you happen to be on that line?"
Joe: "Just doing a video about VORs"
I just wanted to say, that he was very lucky not getting catched by the police 😂
Pilot: VOR DME estabilished...
KGB agent in the background: Give me info about him.
only russian native speakers will understand)
The fact that he did the line demonstration on the crowded Autobahn A9 cracks me up. I sure miss Munich!
