    I wonder how many people in the 60's had any idea that 60 years on, people would be watching these online and on handheld devices..... very cool that these are preserved.

    but I think they would be surprised that 60 years later we are still basically flying those same planes, in many cases literally the same physical planes from the 60s

    Not only that many of those same planes are retrofitted with the completely upgraded panel with Glass, CRTs, AHRS and GPS. Those who are still around grew with the changes. What they would have thought about an HSI when their VOR Omni had a blue and yellow sector. Think of what Buddy Holly’s flight would have been if his fatal flight was an upgraded model. Gosh I miss the NDB approach!

    I like these training videos. Please keep posting them. I love looking up the tail numbers. The planes in this video are still airworthiness. I love the FAA education.

    Cliff owned some warbirds eventually, so he really did love flying. I thought at one time he was around San Diego.

    Wow, the more things change the more the stay the same. I have seen all of these things happen at my airport, except for the hand prop accident. Haven't seen someone have to hand prop yet, but I am sure some day I will see it.

    So, supposedly the Tri-Pacer guy had the wind FROM the NE, 10-15, which meant he was landing downwind and his base turn was WAY wide, he ran off the left side of the runway, so the diagram on the chalk board is crap. No wonder their students are confused, the instructor is a moron. And if Chuck calls that lined up on the runway, he may need his vision checked...

    Another safety film with things being shown that are unsafe. Opening your car door before the vehicle comes to a complete stop. How come the pilot came out of the right side of the airplane when that airplane has doors on both sides? First time I’ve seen a tricycle gear plane ground loop.

    It’s actually great money spent. It’s an educational film that will save millions of $$ in the future if they can use this to change future pilots behaviors. A function of the FAA is also education and prevention.
