We also use ForeFlight here in Papua New Guinea. It's awesome because you can geo sync your own maps for a place like PNG where there are no foreflight maps with detail.
I am someone who was an engineer in both my Naval/Coast Guard career and am now a Systems Engineer after my service. What you are doing with this series is awesome. Military trains in a similar fashion to what you are doing in many different areas and practicing constantly to ensure muscle memory reaction to a crisis first with check sheet follow up. As someone looking to start working on my PPL, I respect and appreciate your approach and look forward to using it in my training should I get there.
This is some of the most amazing flight information I have come across. The amount of care you put in both the information and HOW you present this life saving information is remarkable. Thank you!
I love this series. I am trying to figure out how to start my training to become a private pilot. Watching your videos like this makes me aware of the situations that have plagued so many. Thank you for putting the time and effort into making us all smarter and safer pilots. Keep up the good work. Fly smart, fly safe.
I"m glad you are producing these videos. I got to say that I more than ever want to learn to pilot a plane. Being over fifty and overweight stop me from pursuing that dream. I hope I'm able to do that this late in my life. Thanks again
Definitely an important topic, and it reminds me of an infamous case about six years ago at one of the flight schools I used for both of my multi ratings and my commercial. A flight instructor with 30 years of flying, an ATP rating, and experience in fixed wings, gliders, and helos took a student pilot out prior to their first solo for takeoffs and landings practice. It was in the late afternoon into evening and they had planned for one long distance trip, but the instructor changed the destination at the last minute and didn't require the student pilot to rebrief the new route. After practicing at the first stop, they headed to the second stop deep in Virginia after nightfall, telling him to cruise at 3,000', but they were heading into mountainous terrain where safe altitudes required you to cruise between 6,000' to 7,000'. In fact, the destination airport's elevation was 3,793'. They crashed into a mountainside 64 nm away from that airport, and while the student pilot survived with severe injuries the instructor died. It's scary to think about how preventable that one was, and the fact that this student relied on the instructor to be safe in that situation even though he queried him about safe altitudes in the region.

Your videos are incredible. I haven’t started flight school yet but plan to soon. No matter my expertise I’ll keep coming back to these reminders. Appreciate all you are doing here. And by the way, I thank your Dad and the other gentleman for putting themselves out there to be subjected to the pressure of flying but also knowing it’s being recorded. I’d hate to learn that someone crashed as a result of ego.
Jesus - the first minute of this made me want to re watch your entire Alaska series. Such beautiful scenery. Side note - I cant imagine how much storage you need to have to hold all of this footage over the years.
Thanks! This was such a good video! The first thing a pilot friend of mine told me when I was about to start PPL training was "beware of CFIT" Especially being from Jamaica where weather closes in over terrain a lot (even though I trained in Florida where its mostly flat). On my PPL checkride the examiner gave me a partial panel scenario when I was on final and I did a go around because I would not have had enough time to figure out my next steps while trying to land. Knowing your instruments and the technology you have is important but so is good ADM.
Josh I haven’t visited your channel in a while, and I would like to say that you have came a long way since I started watching you at your humble beginnings. Congratulations sir ! Josh why are pilots afraid of declaring an emergency? Is there a penalty imposed from the FAA or something?
Hi Josh, At my secondary local Airport, Monroe Walton County Airport (ICAO:D73). One of my Dad’s friends was flying an expiremental making right traffic to Runway 03. No one knows what happened but it looked like too steep of a turn. If you look up Plane crash in Monroe, Georgia, Summer of 2019, you should find it. I’d really love to know about low speed spins and accelerated spins. Btw I’m learning to fly a Mooney M20J. Thanks, Ethan
Josh and Dan, THANKS! This information (AQP) should be a mandatory part of PPL training and included in annual flight reviews not bi-annual, you can never be too safe or proficient.
Would you do a video on understanding some of the basic radio communications? I'm a n00b just now looking at getting into flying and I'd like to better understand all the radio chatter. Which right now seems Greek to me.
There's a lot of videos but understanding really goes hand in hand with flying. A lot of comms is semantics, legal syntax, then just safety/plain communication skills. Also the type of airport towed/non towered, or something specific like FSS, APP/Dep.
Well dang... during the iPad discussion I was feeling pretty good about mine. Then you said you had yours connected to your headset with bluetooth... I need to do that. When I take off from N19 to the east there's a hilltop on the nose. I see the terrain avoidance and of course I know it's there but hearing it will add to the awareness. One of the towers on that hilltop is ours. I'd be in big trouble if I hit that :o) I've never flown anything with an autopilot. I see the benefit but I think it's good to maintain hand flying proficiency.
Maintain hand flying proficiency AND learn how to use your autopilot. If you inadvertently fly into IMC and you aren't instrument rated, your autopilot will really help take some tasks off your brain so you can focus on finding a safe way back to clearer conditions.
@@PhilMcGowan I 100% with what you wrote but as I said, "I've never flown anything with an autopilot.". I can't use what I don't have. As I search for an aircraft to buy, a functioning AP is at the top of the list.
How do you manage all the footage you take. In terms of data storage how do you manage the massive amounts of data from all your cameras? Awesome Video!
O My gosh. Josh thank you for all of this and what you do. is it possible to visit montana and check out Yellowstone International Airport? thanks! Thank you again
Continuing education is the key. Passing the course once is useless, if the problem happens a year later. Josh's slogan is correct: Stay proficient. The important word is "stay."
So your Alaska diversion, I have to say I can't see why? How is that scenario any different from night flying? Visibility may have been reduced, but you still knew you were clear of terrain from your location and altitude. Not at all trying to argue, I genuinely want to understand what the issue there was or if it's just different risk levels, thanks for your vids!
Nice video and I would add the following suggestions (I) if flying in mountainous terrain best use a turbo-charged aircraft and fly at MOCA/MEA. altitudes. (II) in event of failure of gyroscopic instruments, be careful using IPad for instrument flight UNLESS it is driven by data from an external AHRS system such as Stratus or Garmin GDL 5x series.
Halfway through my instrument rating training, now I have to memorize GRABCARD, AVE F MEA and MARVELOUS VFR C500. This memorization torture is needless, and will not resolve an in-flight emergency such as that described here. Besides, I can type out all their meanings, take a photo, and add that as a document to my ForeFlight.
Really enjoy your videos! Keep up the great work. As a flying and video enthusiast, can I ask you a question? Your audio is always very good. How do you do it? I have been putting a radio mic in one of the headphones. I have heard that putting an ND filter on the GoPro, you can get rid of the prop effect. I haven't tried it but have bought a set of filters. Have you tried that?
I am an aspiring pilot and am planning to soon start flying lessons in a 172. Does anyone know the size of the iPad mounted to the yoke? Is it the regular one or the mini? Thank you
So sad that the top leading cause of fatal accidents in GA is not an airplane failure, but a human failure. How do we solve human failures to save lives ? With such videos. Thanks Josh.
Lucas Wright All military pilots have PPL; it’s the basic license to fly anything with wings and an engine. They also have an instrument rating, and probably a commercial rating or equivalent, plus a multi-engine rating, and a type rating for the aircraft they are flying, plus tons of training hours. Go fly! 🛫😎🛬
I ordered some of the notepads! Super fast shipping, extremely useful format. I would definitely recommend them. (Check out his video on pilot's shorthand if you haven't already) He included a personalized note with the order for me too! Thanks bro (:
I am definitely old school. I'm also very envious of today's situational technology. C.F.I.T. in my day was avoided by excellent pre-flight planning and continual, excuse the pun, dead reckoning while in VFR conditions. Even in IFR conditions, you had to know where you were in relation to terrain but to determine that you had to continually update your position with Omni bearing locations interpreted to terrain as depicted on the Sectional charts on your lap. Oh yeah, and flying IFR was with a standard six-pack. I truly believe that every pilot today should be proficient in using the basics while supplementing that with technology. Sorry, I just don't believe today's GA pilots have the fundamentals to basic survival down pat. Losing certain instruments means you may have to fly relying solely on needle-ball-airspeed in cases of glass panel failures. You guys today have it made but may be too dependent on it. Anyone can fly until they are challenged by a situation for which they are not prepared. Autopilot, what's that? Having an inopt autopilot when you never had one to begin with is a non-issue. And never, never forget to communicate! Your efforts to beef up awareness are to be commended but I believe it is a failure by the FAA to mandate this training for all GA pilots to save lives! I remain one of your most avid followers even if I no longer hit the skies daily!!
While the basics are important, its also important to realize that the availability of new avoidance tech is meant to save lives. But in cases like Josh is showing, there are cases where pilots are not using every tool they have, from the 6 pack, all the way to state of the art glass cockpit elements.
You couldn't have said any better, hit the nail on the head. While I do like all the new avionics and gadgets that's out there, I actually do appreciate my 172 six pack. I really think everyone beginning flight training it should be from a six pack. Thanks for your comment!!
Clearly some pilots are more competent and knowledgeable of available technology, and how to use it and that could be seen in this video. I can't imagine why the pilots of that Citation put off declaring an emergency, I keep thinking about those poor people riding that wingless plane 12, 000 feet to the ground while fully aware their pilots just killed them all, or at least knowing the plane no longer had wings. What a sad mistake to make.
Loving this series. With one glaring exception. It is my belief, and I could be wrong, that the iPad does NOT have an ADHRS (or any other decent gyro type sensors).... it is, if I'm not mistaken, 100% RATE BASED from GPS signals and heading. The fake artificial horizon tool in fore-flight is seriously limited. I want to go and do a fully coordinated dutch roll, 45% to 45%, back and forth, and see if Fore-flight has a clue what the aircraft's attitude really is (i'm thinking it does NOT have a clue). Anyone tried this? I think using it in clouds without a real attitude instrument would yield certain death... better to have a needle-ball gyro as a back-up (and be proficient in using it).
Teddy Nebel exactly I am training for my ppl pre-solo and I don’t have an iPad. Although my instructor does have an iPad with foreflight, not sure about you though
You do not need an iPad to fly. It is a shame how people get caught up in technology and forget about being a proficient pilot and enjoying flying. The example of the fatal jet crash that Josh talked about was a direct result of technology. If the pilots had been proficient at flying the plane themselves, it never would have happened. I am not saying all technology is bad, but as a student pilot, you should be concentrating on flying the plane NOT an iPad.
chester8420 I get you and I also know that students shouldn’t be putting themselves in a situation where they require one but if we have Technologie to help is fly we should embrace it.
@@teddynebel Yes, they can be a great add-on for a pilot. But when you're learning to fly, you have to learn the basics and fly without all this stuff. If you start with iPads from the beginning, you will always depend on it. When the shit hits the fan, you don't have the basic skills to fall back on.
How could declaring an emergency help that plane that crashed? If the pilot was disoriented it's not something control could help with yet the exchange of dialogue would have taken even more brain capacity away from task at hand.
I watch Captain Moombeam and his Co-pilot Mike conduct flights without incident, then wonder how two "corporate pilots" can get disoriented and pull the wings off an airplane. Were they untrained/inexperienced idiots? Give me the background info on those operators.....................................
Thank you for your deep care for the safety of the pilots of General Aviation, your work will certainly save lives, great work Josh!

Thanks a lot for the video and best regards from colleagues from Ukraine!
Great video! Couldn’t agree more that pilots need to know their tools (ForeFlight) and they need to be able to hand fly.
I love being here early. Another great video Josh!
Your videos are wonderful, hats off to you mate, from Down Under
I just reviewed the Alaska series last week and I know you'll mention CFIT in AQP Grassroots. Expected, as this is a huge issue in GA.
Love seeing the collaborations with Dan! Now, when are you gonna fly the DC3?

Loved the IPAD discussion Josh. Plus the IPad is PORTABLE. It can be transferred to any aircraft. Heck you could be a backseat passenger and use it.
Do you have any information on the canyon lake crash
Thank you
Grant Aviation. I currently work for them and heard little about this. Sad to hear

You Rock Dude!
Hey Josh, Foreflight question for you.. which subscription plan would you advise for an upcoming private pilot.
Thanks for this content
Random question I was thinking while watching some old videos,
Have you ever considered being an airline pilot for a living?
VFR seems to mean „flying with iPad“ (!?). „Visual Flight Pad“. These people die when batteries are off!?Would recommend to get Instrument Rating.
Usually ends in fatal accidents? In opening statements. Are you implying that most people have a fatal accident when the enter IMC inadvertently?
Josh are you located in Texas ? Just curious
I knew a guy. predicted day before, next we would hear of him was newspapers. Next day flew into icing and descended into mountain.
My question is how do you know if an instrument is failing? It doesn't just turn off. How can you identify incorrect instrument readings?
How well does ForeFlight work in Canada?
If I get my PPL can I still fly a small plane and be a fighter pilot
Yes. One of my friends flew the F15 Eagle. And he had a PPL.
Lucas Wright All military pilots have PPL; it’s the basic license to fly anything with wings and an engine. They also have an instrument rating, and probably a commercial rating or equivalent, plus a multi-engine rating, and a type rating for the aircraft they are flying, plus tons of training hours. Go fly! 🛫😎🛬
I ordered some of the notepads! Super fast shipping, extremely useful format. I would definitely recommend them. (Check out his video on pilot's shorthand if you haven't already) He included a personalized note with the order for me too! Thanks bro (:
BRS can be a lifesaver too
What is the intro song on this video?
I am definitely old school. I'm also very envious of today's situational technology. C.F.I.T. in my day was avoided by excellent pre-flight planning and continual, excuse the pun, dead reckoning while in VFR conditions.
Even in IFR conditions, you had to know where you were in relation to terrain but to determine that you had to continually update your position with Omni bearing locations interpreted to terrain as depicted on the Sectional charts on your lap.
Oh yeah, and flying IFR was with a standard six-pack. I truly believe that every pilot today should be proficient in using the basics while supplementing that with technology. Sorry, I just don't believe today's GA pilots have the fundamentals to basic survival down pat. Losing certain instruments means you may have to fly relying solely on needle-ball-airspeed in cases of glass panel failures. You guys today have it made but may be too dependent on it. Anyone can fly until they are challenged by a situation for which they are not prepared. Autopilot, what's that? Having an inopt autopilot when you never had one to begin with is a non-issue. And never, never forget to communicate!
Your efforts to beef up awareness are to be commended but I believe it is a failure by the FAA to mandate this training for all GA pilots to save lives!
I remain one of your most avid followers even if I no longer hit the skies daily!!
You did dead reckoning? That's awesome. My naval aviator grandfather was often the navigator on pby's pre ww2.
Well put Jim!!!
While the basics are important, its also important to realize that the availability of new avoidance tech is meant to save lives. But in cases like Josh is showing, there are cases where pilots are not using every tool they have, from the 6 pack, all the way to state of the art glass cockpit elements.

I think that Foreflight i pad with the separate unit yields exact ADI picture. I good video to shoot and show side by side tho....Josh?
I reiterate *EVERYTHING* Josh is saying. I am a student pilot with an imminent checkride. I fly with foreflight and would feel naked without it.
You feel naked without an iPad...sad but this is part of the problem..fly the plane not the electronics.

hello
How could declaring an emergency help that plane that crashed? If the pilot was disoriented it's not something control could help with yet the exchange of dialogue would have taken even more brain capacity away from task at hand.
ATC actually can help you out a great deal. Especially when you declare an emergency.
They can and will save your life.
Hello. So learn to fly VFR instead of IFR like in the before time in the long long ago.
I bet that plane is over weight!
I watch Captain Moombeam and his Co-pilot Mike conduct flights without incident, then wonder how two "corporate pilots" can get disoriented and pull the wings off an airplane.
Were they untrained/inexperienced idiots?
Give me the background info on those operators.....................................
It is so painful to watch that old dude who has no clue how to get FF backup AI, he better get some proficiency training.
A. That's Josh's Dad
B. You're literally watching him get proficiency training
@@PhilMcGowan A. Good for him because from the videos he needs it.
