Hmmm. They had to have a pretty chick for illustration purposes 😀😀😀
I'd like to create mine
Such a good explanation! Thank you!

Who knew a goat could fly!
At 2:52 min there is a mistake given
Hi, someone with a disability can be a pilot? disability with his arm. right hand.
You need to visit an aviation medical examiner for proper advice. You can use this locator to search for the nearest AME in your area. www.faa.gov/pilots/amelocator/
Thats something i didnt know too going into flight training.
This was awesome.
IFR is 3,000 statue miles visibility!
lol did anyone else catch him say that the wings are in the tank on a piper Cherokee?
I will come back here when I,M a pilot and like my comment
Best of luck!
@@EpicAviationEpicFlightAcademy thanks
Great job. I am a 3 time retired corp. pilot. I purchased a X-Plane II desk sim. with the Epic E-1000 acft. Excellent step by step guide. RJW
hello sir I'm wondering if there is any relation ship between the fighter jet engine system and the civilian airplanes systems. thank u so much
Anyone who wants to be a professional pilot should get some basic Aerobatic instruction to include spins. 10-15 hours in a Decathalon or better will suffice. It's ten times the training that simple unusual attitude training. As Calvin G Bass used to tell me "Aerobatics teaches competence and confidence. True in 1984. True today.

Just to make things clear. People who are making $50+ an hour are top out with a union company. Realistically you will start at 30-38 an hour.
I’m currently at $51 an hour non-union

For admission any height requirements for female??
In civil aviation, there is no minimum height requirement to become a pilot; however, some small aircraft cannot accommodate an extremely tall individual. To be sure of a specific airline’s requirements, we encourage you to contact them directly. epicflightacademy.com/commercial-airline-hiring-requirements/ For more information, kindly visit this link: epicflightacademy.com/flight-school-faq/is-there-a-height-requirement/
Mike... In have Foreflight. It gives me the magnetic course to fly and creates my NAV Log. Why do I care about learning old technology like E6-B.....or why even learn how to calculate Wind correction angle. Foreflight does it for me! And I have an iPhone as a backup.
What?
Advice - one thing is to know the technical aspect of ur job, the other thing to know is the economics of your job but also the industry as a whole. Cautionary tale.
Honestly, my favourite channel to learn aviation! thank you!
One Nautical Mile is a minute of Latitude not Longitude.
Noup. Latitude is the Angular Distance of a place on the Earth Planet expressed in degrees and minutes (Horizontal Angular Divisions) from the Equator 0-90 degrees north or South. Longitude: They are Vertical Angular Divisions running 180 degrees East and 180 degrees West. They were created using TIME in the absence of a Natural reference to follow… Remember that Longitude has a reference tool associated to calculate the vertical angular distance (west-east) based upon the time. That’s why we have the Prime Meridian “Greenwich”. It is the Longitude what used the time and not the Latitude. Of course both (Lat/Long) will be given in degrees and time. But 1 NM = 1 minute of Lat AND 1 minute of Longitude as well. However the length in 1 minute of Longitude decreases as you move away from the Equator to the Poles.
Well said! One nautical mile is also one minute of longitude at the equator. My apologies. The only reason I pointed it out is because in the video, Mike mentions one nautical mile as one minute of longitude, no matter where you are, which is not true. Timestamp 11:51. One nautical mile is generally classed as one minute of LAT no matter where you are AND one minute of longitude at the equator. Distance between lines of latitude are generally consistent, BUT distance between lines of longitude change depending on how far north or south you are.
Good morning Mr. “Mgrudjsk”, I completely understand the point of view of Mike and HE IS CORRECT! Allow me to explain it to you 🙂: Sometimes, it is hard to grasp some basic concepts because we see the things in 2D (the graphics or images), however to understand this, we have to see it in a 3D, specially with the concept Longitud because we are using the term “Meridian Arc Length” which is the length corresponding to 1 minute of LATITUDE at the equator. However that horizontal ARC circumference gets smaller and smaller as you get closer to the poles. Now, that Meridian ARC distance is not the same as the Latitude Distance because when calculating the speed in KNOTS in the LONGITUDE you use a curve line slightly different than a straight line used with respect to the LATITUDE. That’s why the term NM has to be applied only on Longitude and not in Latitude. P.D. There is nothing to apologize, we in Epic LOVE the questions and also encourage each one of you to ask as much as you can to deeply understand the reasons behind every concept that will make you a better Pilot! “I LOVE the WHY ??”.

Ok.... your vid, and most other vids really don't explain it. All you do is repeat the FAR/AIM or procedure without really telling a fresh IFR pilot what to do. So, yesterday, I was flying into an airport and ATC dropped me through the clouds, and asked if I wanted the visual. Since I wasn't 100% sure what to do with it, I just asked for vectors to the ILS33. (FYI, below 5000' it was perfectly clear. About 3000' AGL) So.... in that situation... if I would have said "Yes, I would like the visual 33".... what would I have needed to do? Call the tower and get into the pattern? would ATC vector me to a long final? What do I say when ATC hands me to the tower? The real life info is missing on ever vid I've watched this morning.
Response from Mike Thompson: "This should be reviewed with your CFI-I. Procedures are in AIM 5-4-23."
@@EpicAviationEpicFlightAcademy Like I said... the "Book" answer isn't really real life.
What’s the white diamond when loading and flying visual approach that shows up on glideslope? Thx
Per Mike Thompson: The white diamond is the glideslope or vertical guidance. Please work with your CFI on this.
Well, would you look at THIS! I literally was watching all your commercial maneuvers videos over the weekend. Took up my iPad to look for some Lazy 8s video and you POPPED RIGHT UP!!! Thank you!!! Mock stage check tomorrow.
Fun fact Lufthansa Aviation Training MANDATES backseating
Thank you great video!
Thank you so much 😊
Can I still get it at 22 years old after college?
At 22, you still meet our age criteria! You are very welcome to apply. Just let us know whenever you're ready!

How much they take
The tuition costs for our Airline Pilot Program are listed on our website: epicflightacademy.com/international-pilot-pathway/
Which airlines you take training? Here they take exam also? Plz reply
The entire training is done on our campus at New Smyrna Beach, Florida, USA. Examinations such as written and checkrides are done on-site as well.
What happens if suddenly the 'papi lights (airport lighting) don't work, and goes in dark?
Response from Mike Thompson: VFR, you can continue without them. IFR, refer to the equipment failure table in the TERPS. Work with your CFI on this.
Agreed! I am working on my CPL and CFI soon and all these videos are great help! Thank you!
Great technique, thanks so much for sharing!
How to get these aviation scholarships for international student?
Unfortunately, scholarships and financing are not available for international students at this time.
Very helpful! Thank you :)
Excellent. Congratulation
Loved flying the Seminole
Awesome!
Great video. Question: If our alternate airport wx is forecasted for 700-2 at arrival, and allows standard 600-2 for a precision approach,and has a LPV approach with a DA of 200’ but not an ILS approach, then can we list it as an alternate? Since the FAA doesn’t authorize a LPV as an approved precision approach, I would think not. Anybody? Comments?
Response from Mike Thompson: Approaches are currently in three categories: Non-Precision, Precision, and APV. APVs are not currently considered Precision approaches. Work on this with your CFI-I.
How to get admission in this academy from Bangladesh??
Depending on the course you're interested in. If you meet all the qualifications, you are welcome to attend our training programs since we welcome international students. To learn more, please visit our website at epicflightacademy.com/
Isn’t rwy15 a precision approach rwy as it has two sets of touchdown zone marking???
10:10. U should be landing in the opposite direction if you want to land in to the wind. Your airplane shows a right base to final and landing with a tailwind.
I am not a pilot and I caught the same thing :) I have not even done my discovery flight.
That was very informative. Thank you.
