This was a really great video in helping me understand wingtip vortices. I'm studying for my private pilots license and this was a tremendous help!

Where are you at now with your training?

Holly & Bridget marquardt. Who else is here because of Bridget talking about the wake story

Everything was well said and easy to understand... Thank you.

Excellent visualization with clear explainations I needed to understand the drift part of them while studying for my ATP written! Thanks!!

Very detailed explanation and good illustrations! Well done!

Great demonstration, thanks for sharing

You deserve more subs. thanks for the video, very helpful

Great video,, these kinds refresh memories and teach new pilots alike.

Thank you for this helpful video

It’s a nerve wracking feeling, just had this coming into Charlotte in a smaller American Eagle flight, right before landing we dip right and I’m like... uuuh.. Pilot recovered like it was nothing though

Amazing video , thank u so much

Excellent video. Thank you.

Great video, very informational!!

Excellent video !

great video on wake turbulence, thanks!

Thank You! Well said. :)

Thank You, helpful

what software did you use to make the simulations?

Excellent

awesome video my man.

It just doesn't fit my head that it takes several minutes for the air movement to dissipate. How does it persist for so long...

What’s an upwind and downwind runway? And what’s quartering tailwind?

A question about wake turbulence & vortices - as I encountered a question on an RPAS pilot exam. The question asks what factor could cause a vortex to stagnate above my ground position, with options being (Tall trees around my position, (b) light wind), (c) relief, such as hill or mountain, or (d) cloudy sky with precipitation. From my own research, (b) does not seem the answer as light wind will simply move the vortex around. (d) does not seem correct either, as precipitation will have no effect on vortices. (c) seems correct to me, as any sharp vertical movement due to orthographic lift would disrupt it, but I cannot verify that this is correct. Any advice?

I would say (b). A light cross wind can cause the upwind vortex to camp out over the runway. Watch at 3:00

But you guys aren't correcting for the magic spinning rock underneath the airplane.... weird..

thanks now I can safely takeoff with my A380 :)

B.S. then why does a wing fly upside down or a symmetrical wing fly. ANGLE of ATTACK

Hope that after 5 years you still have this account just so you can see this message of me calling you an idiot.
