Hey @3:30 what he is talking about I also struggled with it. A little trick that helped me was point the VOR needle to the runway heading. This will help clean up the turns. Set the heading bug to the wind direction reported in the ATIS. When you are getting ready to turn downwind to base pick a prominent feature in the cabin like a screw that will help you determine when the RWY is 45° off of the wing. Lmk now if it helps! Great video Lew!
Crosswind landings are tough, and since nature rarely cooperates, most landings will have some crosswind component. I’ll never forget how good it felt the first time I nailed a crosswind landing, especially the first one that I nailed solo with no CFI. Don’t worry Reggie, eventually it becomes instinct and your hands and feet work together without you having to think much about it.
I wish my instructor had been this fun, instead, she quit right as I am prepping for my check ride causing a massive headache with setting it up and being signed off for it.
I had the same problem until I realized that if you make sure your rudder input is correct - then the airplane's longitudinal axis with be aligned with the center line, and it's much easier to see what aileron correction is required. This guy is trying to get it all correct at the same time, so he's sideways for the most of it, and it really messes with your brain.
i like that he is having fun.. but i think he needs more seriousness, to learn betterer i notice that he keeps trying to use ailerons to correct his position on the runway... more rudder man.. MORE RUDDER.
Love this content!!! Reggie is the best! Any channel I have subbed to when under 100k are now in the millions… I expect this channel to grow too!!
@@mad85123 Haha I’ve been going at it for 9 years now. I don’t think I’ll make it but I very much appreciate the sentiment!
3:35 much more confident and so wholesome. Love to see it, keep it up!!
His confidence has improved greatly. Good to see.
Definitely!

Hey Lewis, I'm preparing for my checkride next month over here in Germany and I cannot tell you how helpful your videos were for me! Many Thanks!
That's amazing to read! I'm so glad that you've found my videos helpful!
This video made something click with me for my personal ppl training. Thank you
Best aviation channel on TH-cam
@@brandook3648 Thanks! That means a lot!
Back during my PPL training, I didn’t have any problems with landing; my main issue was steep turns.
7:08 Lew is an instructor of steel. Those wing dips made me nervous just watching
There is a good clearance, just one of many reasons why Lewdix secretly loves high-wings. 😉
I know how far I can let things go before stepping in. Years of practice haha
@Rodhern Watch your mouth!
You doing a great Job keep it up
I wish my instructor had been this fun, instead, she quit right as I am prepping for my check ride causing a massive headache with setting it up and being signed off for it.
This made me smile 😁
@@LoganVass3 Sweet!
Fine, take my sub, lol. Great video :)
@@hackerzol Welcome to the fun side of aviation 😎
Reggie is getting better at those landings
He is! It’s good to see.
Lewdix, Complete fan of the channel. I would love it if you were to have a Chart supplement shirt with Welcome to the Sky. What do you think?
43 seconds is crazy
@@AbnormallyLargeBoi that’s pretty sick
My God are these men on top of their game with those killer sunglasses!! Sheesh Watch out Vogue Magazine.
Love your videos. I live West Yorkshire about 30 mins north of Bolton. I want an instructor like you, do you know anyone?
🐐

Why aren’t you flying for silver airways anymore?

Hilarious! 🤣
I think reggie could benefit from a more serious training enironment!
/s 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Keep it up man!
I’d love to fly with you
Just passed my instrument check ride

No Lew is teaching him well, Reggie realized his mistakes and then fixed them. I think he is doing just fine! You rock Reggie!
