hey, I was wondering if I Could ask you some questions, and since you seem to be a successful pilot I was hoping you could answer them. firstly I was about the actual age you can learn to fly I was surprised that you learnt to fly a plane before you could drive (which seems like an amazing achievement). also while I was doing research I found out that you can choose between an integrated and a modular which I don't quite understand, any response would be really helpful and I would greatly appreciate it

CLEAR!!!! And the 3 second wait after yelling it, saved a buddy’s dog at a grass airfield. He heard someone yell CLEAR!!! Saw his dog in front of the plane, yelled for his dog and waved his arm. The pilot, confused but happy he waited for the dog to get back to a safer spot.

Had an instructor tell me I needed to start the prop right after yelling clear… I just looked at him… then what’s the point of yelling clear prop if someone doesn’t have time to move?… I don’t fly with him anymore

I’m starting flight school in just a few months. These videos are gonna give me some before knowledge and tips going into school.

hey can you teach me flying?

I just started to take flying lessons and you are covering everything I've been doing . You are a great flight instructor. ✈️

Absolutely thrilling to see these students getting started with their first flight lessons. Great videos. I really enjoy watching them.

Chris, you are an awesome instructor!! 💯

Oh yeah, the good 'old days and those first hours of training! We set up for power off stalls and found myself 1/4 way into a spin with the Earth encompassing the windshield. Instructor said something about being coordinated, but overwhelmed, I didn't begin to understand what was going on. Ended up doing about three of these partial spins when the instructor said we will come back to it later. Things went much better in the next lesson - and eventually become a pilot. Thanks for sharing, Chris. BTW - check the spelling of "Leveling Off..." Happy Holidays.

Starting next week with my flight training and this videos are awesome! Thanks for the content.

Good job, Sienna.... keep it up!

Love this series!

Just started taking flying lessons and these videos are super helpful! Thanks for sharing!

Really appreciate these videos! I start flight lessons next Friday.

Love the videos and your wonderful training methods keep up the great work 👍

Good for students to experience wind ..especially cross winds...well done Chris.

I've been watching your videos for about a year now. Last week did a discovery flight and this past Wednesday had my first lesson. Your videos and msfs2020 had me enjoying the experience and also getting a better feeling of what to expect and what's expected of myself. My disc flight, was a really calm day and no turbulence. Smooth as butter. My flight the other day, was a little windy and big time turbulence. Tossed around the Piper Warrior and made me want to hurl the last 10 minutes lol. I was nauseas the rest of the day into Thursday mid morning. I instantly thought of this video with Sienna. Good stuff over here at Angle of Attack. 👍

Another great video full of information

Great video, Thanks for sharing!

I seldom subscribe to any channel but this one is so interesting!! I am an old pilot so this brings back so many memories. It's a pleasure to watch, thank you!

Excellent videos!!

Very informative videos. I’m starting my PPL this summer and these videos are increasing my excitement.

I absolutely love your channel! You make things clear for students and give great reasoning. Thank You for being a great Instructor!

AWESOME

Great channel, really enjoy watching and slightly envious. I'm from England, I flew gliders and became an instructor. Got a buzz teaching novices to fly and reach solo.

I've been grounded since November due to weather and life. This encourages me to make time for completing my ppl. Thanks for posting your lessons and your instruction. You're an excellent instructor.

You're a great instructor! Nice flying in Alaska.

I think back (waaaaay back) to when I was first learning and everything was new and my instructor was telling me how much "different" the strong wind made everything feel......But EVERYTHING felt new and different! So what really helped was flying in the pattern or doing ground reference maneuvers with a really strong wind, so I could really see how big of a crab angle was needed to maintain centerline when landing with a strong x wind component. I had to get pretty close to the ground to really have an appreciation for what it was going to take, flying the airplane while looking out the SIDE window, not the front windshield! And when you compound that with the turbulence that usually accompanies strong x winds and it was really intimidating, now I was really moving the control yoke, fearful of breaking something or stalling the airplane. I had to understand that it took what it took to maintain control and you had to put in a large deflection and hold it in and wait to see the results!!! I wasn't sure I would ever feel comfortable flying in strong winds!! I didn't realize then how much fun I was going to have later on landing with full opposite aileron one wheel first and then kicking that crab out at the last second to make a squeaker of a landing!

Sienna is lovely, peaceful, calm and paying attention... will be a amazing pilot and hope she makes a youtube channel so we can watch more of her. Merry Xmas.

Fantastic

I remember my first half dozen official flight lessons in my friends Taylorcraft the winds were always crosswind, turbulent, and bumping up close to the max crosswind capability of the airplane. Not something for students new to aviation but for me it was a challenge I was sort of ready for.

Boa noite Cris assisti o vídeo com o Edu e a Franci que maravilha o vídeo e lindo tbm parabéns 👏👏👏👏

Chris, I like your explanations of wind sheer.also why landing facing the wind and take off.

Those first few hours are tough for any student

She's so cute. Definitely a future IFR pilot.

I used to yell clear all the time, especially when I had a Piper and forgot to open the little window. I usually blew the eardrums out of my passengers. If you do that final walk around before you get in there shouldn’t be anybody underneath your airplane. By the way, my first solo will be this August 40 years ago. All the difference Aviation has gone through specially when I had to learn NDB approaches, and GPS was nonexistent. My advice is if any student gets a chance to do any taildragger time it will make you a better pilot. My instructor after my third hour took me up to 5000 feet and demonstrated a three turns spin in both directions. He wanted me to be sure that I knew what I was getting into and what could happen if I wasn’t paying attention. Today spins are a lot of fun and I look forward to getting an airplane that is certified to do so.

Can you start tagging these videos as Flight 5 or Lesson 5? Please and Thanks...Super Great content! Your instruction would suit a lot of student pilots.

That right there is what I call deadreckioning and pilotadge old school vfr navigation skills without use of whizz wheel E6B 😊

As an ex Air Force Airman I always thought that clear came from when they spun the prop to clear the chambers before there was actual ignition and the engine started and the time sequence is the distance for the Airman that spun the prop to walk forward to be a total view of the pilot I could be wrong but that's how it's always been

I'm so jealous that she doesn't get air-sickness. I puked from turbulence at the end of training yesterday.

With your nose gear tire being so large do you ever mention the possible sight picture change on the ground compared to other Cessna that may have traditional landing gear? Just because it looks like the angle on the ground looks steeper

Hey great video, thanks for sharing, I have 2 questions: 1-What mount do you use for the cameras outside of the airplane 2-how do you have the mic on the right side of your headset ( I also have a20’s ) Thanks

another great video, a minor typo on 3:47, should be turbulEnce

Hi! Can you please tell me which mount you used to mount the camera on the vertical stabilizer? I want to make the same camera angle for my training flights

😃👍

What’s the center yellow/green led rectangle on your dash?

Mag check on take off and why. My CFI is not helping and carb heaters.....

serious question tho will the plane go straight if u press the rudders at the same time

the clear prop story is a good one, but to add I see ppl all the time just start up after yelling clear prop not giving response time if some one is in the way, so even if i know no one is around i still like to wait 30 seconds before starting.

Hello! I am taking my first lesson. I was a little nervous on my discovery flight. I have two questions. 1. Is a fear of height normal? 2. How long does it take for the nerves of flying go away?

Very good explanation of wind effect. Good job. Billy - N99601

Noticed the right wheel touched down first? Was that intentionally because of the wind?

It's the opposite. It's nose high. The tires are all the same size, which sticks the nose up more. Great for Alaska flying, but it looks wonky sometimes.

Hey Chris you asked if Sienna gets airsick and said there are some things you can do. What are some of those tips? I'm super prone to motion sickness and that's my biggest fear about trying for my PPL so it's the sim for me until then.

Turbulence can be a biggie. Had my son in law barfed in my chard pack. Later my daughter threw up in a ziplock. Yes I got smarter.. Flying in Texas, San Marcos Airport.

She asks very few questions... curious how much she's actually retaining?

I believe what he means by being early, was that he watched the video so quickly after being published. Because I was thinking the same thing myself. Usually the videos I watch was months back. By the way you are one more excellent flight instructor! I would love for you to be my instructor! You are great at conveying the information to the student in a way they can really understand it. Great job at teaching!

I sincerely hope this video wasn't captured today.

not sure if I like how this guy instructs. IMO he should use basic terms, When teasing stalls he should be saying, Nose down, power on, clean up.. but that is not how he talks. his job is to teach habits and to teach habits you have to use standard terms over and over, same time every time,, I don't know how to explain what I see here, but what I do see is this girl is going to take a long time to train because of his teaching style. He also is all over the place, he needs to know what to work on that day, then go work on that, and that only, stops all the other talk and just works on his goal for the day. Not trying to be a D*ck I have been around many instructions and watched a lot as well. You can tell a good persistent, proficient instructor when you see one. Don't get me wrong this is a good guy, he means well, and he is a good pilot but a great pilot does not mean a great instructor. IMHO For instance, I think she should have had good ground rutter skill before air training, most people die because of the stall with yawl, Rutty's skills save lives, when teaching this stall he said "change angle of attack, this is true but not good for a new pilot, Nose down would be the best term to use, as they get good then you can be saying thing like Nose up or down is the angle of attack changes. That is one example but I see tons of these in the three videos I watched with her training, they spend more time flying around than training habits or skills. again IMHO> I also think this guy is a new instructor and just needs instructor experience so I can not blame him for just tying to give constructive criticism.

I cant trust anybody who claims themselves to be a "master" at something, especially when he doesn't correctly inform the student of the direction to turn and instead says "lets turn that way 👈" while pointing his hand right in front of the students face 6:18 Learn your left and right and vocally instruct the student to turn left or right and maybe even to a specific heading. There is no need to wave your hands around. 9:23 my answer is no, I got bored so I am leaving.

Wing strut level to the ground gives a 30 degree bank....still teaching this???? Windy conditions on the ground, use these control inputs......"for tailwind, dive away from the wind; for headwind, bank into the wind". .....still teaching this??????
