    Thumbs down right away!!! What's with you and that stupid music? I can't listen to you and that thumpy, annoying, nerve-rattling music at the same time. I get wired having to listen to it. Why do you feel a need for music in a technical learning environment? If I turn down the volume to escape that music, then I can't hear you, so as a learning tool this video is useless. It's bad enough that you talk too fast, but your voice is unclear at times and you sound like you're in a hurry. This is not a helpful learning video. You should take this video down or insert captions or upload music videos instead.

    Icing rarely is more than 5,000 feet thick (adiabatic lapse rate), so climbing is always an option unless you are underpowered, and/or in mountainous terrain and in the upslope of the winds aloft in which case the icing will follow you upwards, What ever you do, even in a jet aircraft with hot wings, get out of it and/or reverse course...descending isn't always an option and boots are virtually worthless. Trust me, I survived years of mountain flying in small airplanes in the Northwest, Alaska, and 40 years in the biggest jets made, All-in-all you are fairly accurate.

    No no no! People need to stop perpetuating this nonsense! it’s been taught…. And has been wrong…. For 60 years. Exhaust gas temps have nothing to do with optimum long term engine management. If you love your engine run it low power and lean. 1) reduce power to less than 70% 2) lean until slight power loss then slight roughness is felt. 3) turn back around 1/2 turn to rich side until roughness is gone and a slight power gain is appreciated. 4) readjust periodically or with every 500-1000 foot elevation change. This will save you gas and increase your range; reduce coking of valves and rings; and reduce cam shaft wear. You can go rich for landing…. But as soon as you are safe on ground aggressively lean again for all taxi operations. This is where running rich is the most detrimental. Do the same thing when you start: ok to start rich, but then lean further all taxi operations.

  • @doctaran
    @doctaran 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Nope. This is all wrong. This is how they did it back in the day. It’s totally outdated and wrong. Wastes gas and harms the engine. This is what they teach to low time cfi’s. If you love your engine then Do this at all altitudes included flying 500’ over the beach. You flat landers love to run full rich. Don’t. Once at cruise reduce power to Less than 70%…. This will dramatically reduce wear on the engine and cost you a trivial amount of speed. Find power setting By the book if you need to or 19” manifold pressure if you have that gauge. Lean slowly until the first hint of roughness; then 1/2 turn back rich until a very slight increase in power is felt. That’s it. Readjust with any significant change in altitude; say every 500 or 1000 feet. This is the most gentle way you can run an engine; will keep your rings and valves the cleanest, retard the timing and reduce camshaft wear. It will also save about 15% of your total fuel bill per hour and increase your range by 10% or so. 800 hr 172 pilot here who loves his little plane and has flown it to every single corner of this nation and at all altitudes from 200’ below sea level to 17000 feet above it.

    • @Ecflight
      @Ecflight 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I apologize if you disagree with the procedure. However, we are following the POH specifications and employing the technique you specified. We lean until the first indication of a drop in RPM and then enrich the mixture to stay on the rich side. Additionally, you mentioned a setting for a constant-speed propeller. This is a Cessna 172SP model. Please check the full video in our channel for more information about this is just the short. Thank you for your input.

It was short, concise and every sentence was absolutely packed with correct info. This is one of the best icing/GA flying/training videos I've ever seen. You clearly know you're shit but more importantly, you know exactly how to perfectly convey that shit. If you teach the same way you taught this video, then you're doing everyone a huggeee disservice by not making more!

    The first thing that you did was reverse sensing.. you tried to track outbound but you're going inbound the radial. So if your plane is not on the center , let's say on the right of the radial then you go onto the right if the needle displays left due to reverse sensing
