Thanks for Posting , I'm a student at KRYY just finished up with all my PPL requirements. any recommendation on DPEs with availabilities in January or February for check ride?

During a BFR the instructor didn’t like me raising flaps until stopped and clear the runway. I disagree for two reasons: 1.) aids in braking as you note, and 2.) you must be competent in this function for touch and go. Anyone see this different from me or agree with that BFR instructor?

Again, good stuff. Practical topics not covered by others. Thank you.

You present the information clearly and succinctly. Thank you!

Great video really like the content, don't care for the music.

On most engines the best time to check the oil level is about ten minutes after engine shutdown.

Cessna. 👍

This should be taught to every student pilot.

👍🧐👌🍻

U earned a new subscriber sir.....no bs, concise ti the point

Pull the stick out and grab the end with a rag. Then away from the cowl area, wipe the stick clean. Next insert it and secure it. Then pull it out and check the level. Remember, don’t torque the stick when you are done. It only needs to bottom out and 1/8 turn further. Second Lycoming likes to blow oil out over 6 qts even though it was designed for 8 qts.

Great no nonsense, to the point videos!!!!!

I like to wrap the cable over top of the headband and around the bottom of the earpieces to keep the cord neat when placing in my flight bag.

For single pilot flying I'd thought that run ups (generally prior to the further taxi to the holding point) and DVA's (at the holding point and immediately prior to lining up) were instant recall items that didn't have to be carried out using any aide-memoire conjunct. I'd known that the checklist card or sheet was a mandatory "on board" item which the pilot was required to have to him/her at all times (as is the case with a flight manual which must also be on board and available at all times when operating an aircraft). My understanding was also that physical checklist references (as cards or sheets) such as these were used mainly for training purposes so as to get ab-initio student pilots "up to speed" on basic operating procedures, as well as being used to provide pilots with additional information and procedures when they were carrying out conversion to another type of aircraft or variant. These sheets would be used to verify whether or not required actions had taken place if there was any doubt as to whether or not those required actions had been completed. I'd thought that these were not considered to be "do" lists as such because each procedure or action was considered to be an instant recall and mandatory action, completed in sequence and flowing. Guess I was right off track then.

Good topic, Camera work and explanation..... You gotta lower that music volume though. Reduce it to 30% or less. Having a 50-50% volume share over your voice is distracting. Keep up the great work. Blue skies

What is difference between 0:30 and 1:08? Nothing. If plane has sat the oil is level. By removing you drag stick oil inside the tube. When you put stick back in oil smears on stick, making reading difficult. I would only do as you say if plane was just shut down after running. However oil will read low until oil drains back into sump, so give it 10 min or so.

Man, I love your videos.

Very good. That's exactly what my FI taught me to do ages ago. And it's what I teach my flight students to do now.

Absolutely correct and solid advice. Oil will indeed "wick" up a dipstick when the engine has sat for an extended period, giving an erroneously high indication of quantity. Second reading is more accurate. One more note as a Cessna 150 owner...for tracking oil consumption, the orientation of the dipstick should be consistent when reinserting into the filler neck/sump. This is because the markings are only on one side and the dipstick sits at an angle to the oil sump. I have a mark on the oil cap to ensure consistent measurements. Keep up the wise counsel!

sounds good...but, you have an illegal checklist! You CANNOT use that checklist!!!!!! As a 40 yr plus DPE retired, I have issued many disapproval for this....the instruction must be change....so..in the future please refer to SAFO 17006...which stand for Safety Alert for Field Operators....that checkmate checklist is called COATS...unless the PIC has review each item line by line and it conforms to the POH/AFM etc...then it can be used.....

What's with the music or whatever the background noise nonsense is? Sure would be nice to hear you when you speak. Kindly refrain in your future videos.

Oh yeah, I'm putting my two hands in a hot engine compartment doing your may, on my turbo engine. 🤐

It’s not that hard people. Check the oil and everything else you’re supposed to be checking.

Oil doesnt need t o be checked every flight. I check it every 50 hours.

To everyone who commented: His method is correct. It accounts for the oil that climbs the stick while the engine is running. To prove this, simply note the level change on the second read. It should be lower than the first.

No. The first time you removed the dipstick, you dribbled oil through the tube that guides the dipstick. That oil on the sides of the tube will be captured by the dipstick the second time you remove the dipstick. It may do so in a manner that could indicate a false higher oil level. Why would you not just hold your rag the first time the dipstick is removed to capture oil drips and read the dipstick? Every subsequent time you remove the dipstick in short succession, the more likely you will have messy dipstick and erroneous reading.

what oil grade does she use? 10w 40?

In the airlines we have a challenge/respond because at least 2 pilots are running through it. A single pilot operation can also use a flow because it isn't a DO check list, its a verify check list. I always followed the check list with my thumb... if the item isn't done because of waiting for something (fuel slip for instance) I wouldn't continue until that part of the check list was checked.

Good video thanks

What medical-related questions do you have for Dr. K? Drop a comment and we'll follow up with him.

I thought you were tying a midshipman's hitch until the end (when you didn't).

Taking delivery of your Navion is a highlight flight you will always remember in life. Congratulations and God bless.

Would love to know more about the navion

Great video man 👍

Can't wait to get behind the sticks on that girl again

Cute family plane not butchered.

Got my HP/Complex signoff in a Rangemaster at Fulton County. Now I fly NAvion 91681 out of KFFC. Hope to see that plane around one of these days!

Dude...on my couch laughing my ass off here... hysterical

Brother, great job and beautiful plane. You're camera work, edits and music is strong. I used to edit television shows back in the day and I'm telling you, you're doing a great job. Keep up the good work. Btw, I can't figure out why this video doesn't have 200k plus views. You must have pissed off the Google overlords at some point. Again, good job ;)

I wonder if the Austin to Atlanta trip could be made without a fuel stop?

What was the selling price approx ? 100k?

I been in that community, wanted to move there, beautiful homes I took a video of it

Just curious, what was the year of the Navion and what was you average cruise speed?

Did anyone else notice the tail number painted on the airplane was N8304...Zulu? Not N8304..2 as was the spoken radio ident and the instrument panel placard in the video.

I bought JT’s old Canopy Navion! I d seen his Range Master many times!

Awesome video! Hope to see more in the near future.

Excellent video, Cessna 205 is a great plane

The put the centerline on the runways for a reason. 😂
