    Every landing doesn't have to be perfect, every call doesn't have to be flawless, every turn doesn't have to be either. Fly safely, land safely, you did those things. Always try for perfection, but don't get flustered if you merely achieve "good enough". If would be boring if you didn't have any way to improve!

    So happy for you Kim. Glad to see you doing so well on your way to PIC. I always wished I could have done that, but circumstances have always prevented me. The first time in a private plane as a teen, I was nervous, so got in last (6 total passengers). The pilot never told me that last in was the co-pilot. We flew for a couple of hours with me on the controls over Long Island Sound. Never will forget the feeling. It was incredible.

    Man I wish I could fly again. Watching you go through this is taking me back to when I got my PPL in Tampa and much of what you are experiencing I so understand. I also had an amazing instructor who led me through the initial 'am I going to get this moments' and while he didn't say this phrase out loud, one I learned later on in life as I got older an wiser.....
    Don't let perfect be the enemy of good.
    the corollary of that is what I learned in racing sailboats, 'the mistake is behind us, the finish in front. Don't look back, learn and go forward.'
    You are doing wonderful and I so hope you record your solo cross-country. I aced my tandem xcntry, got lost on the second, with a stone silent instructor (you going to get lost again?) I aced my third and earned my solo. When I landed home the day of my solo I felt I just earned freedom.

    Excellent video series! Two observations/suggestions: (1) If available, get in the habit of requesting VFR flight following. Yes, adds an extra few steps and more radio comms but is a good safety habit to build as you get toward private (and beyond). (2) If not in communications with ATC, monitor guard frequency on primary or standby radio. One less thing to do in an emergency. I know these videos are edited for time so it's possible all that was happening in the background and just not included. Keep up the good work!

    Learning to fly is a hard thing to do, and unnatural having to control 3 dimensions. I struggled with at the time steep turns which were 60 degs back in the day, and 8’s across a road. Keep at it, after 50 years of flying, I can say it is well worth the effort.

    When I did my simulated cross-country flight, my instructor wanted me to do upset flying demonstrations. He made me don my goggles and he then raised the nose and turned the aircraft and only then did he give me the plane. I executed the procedure flawlessly. I fooled him! I knew my procedures down pat.

  • @jimmydulin928
    @jimmydulin928 ปีที่แล้ว

    Light crosswind is much harder for students to recognize and deal with than are strong crosswinds which are easy to recognize and the bank angle to counter drift is more obvious. We have to get the to use rudder only to hold the centerline extended and centerline. If they are not comfortable with walking the rudders dynamically and proactively to bracket the centerline, at least yaw correct with rudder only. When she moves the aileron to bring a wing up, that wing slows a bit and the nose comes off target. Now she moves the yoke the other way. Wing waggers have lots of trouble with light crosswind. Tail waggers have no problems. Have her put her hands in her lap on cross country and keep the nose pointed (nose is between the legs) at a distant target exactly. If using DG, lubber line over the exact heading. This keeps the wing level even in gusts. If we don't let the nose come off target, the wing cannot go down to bank us into a turn. When we are crabbing, the sighting is from eye (back sight) to the target (front sight) to set the wind correction angle. The nose is off target upwind. On short final using the side slip method (yes, even with light crosswind) the centerline is between the legs. With either method, the wing is kept level with rudder only. Adverse yaw simply messes up otherwise good approaches. Aileron is not our friend when we wish not to turn, when we want to rudder only direct our course to the target. In the Cobra helicopter in Vietnam, I bracketed the target with anti-torque pedals (same as rudder) only to have any chance of hitting the target. I certainly did not want to turn. On short final, she certainly does not want to turn.

    Being a high-time pilot with years of training, when I watch the short field landings, I cringed at the instruction given, especially cutting power and diving towards to the runway. Kim, a short-field landing can also be accomplished by flying a normal approach but making your runway aiming point about 25-feet before the runway starts (don't aim for the numbers). Then, simply round-out over that new aiming point. Thais way, you will touchdown on or before the numbers. Keeping your approaches consistent will always reward you with good landings. The other way of "chopping power and then diving towards the runway" makes no sense to me. Even needing to clear trees or an obstacle on the approach end, just come in steeper adding flaps while aiming about 25-feet before the beginning of the runway. 😎

    • @floatinflyinandfishing

      I just made the same comment. the pitch down followed by a sharp round out is going to induce a left yaw, you can see it in each of her landings.

    Yeah don’t worry about “bad landings.” Happens to everyone, even experienced pilots. I remember watching another user’s video that pilots commercial flights. He said he flew a flight into I think John Wayne Airport in Orange County, and he admitted on video it wasn’t his best landing. I don’t think we see the actual landing on the video.
    On a side note, John Wayne Orange County Airport is tricky because of its short runway and noise regulations in the surrounding areas. That airport can’t accommodate anything larger than a 757 and they have to touch down as close to the aiming point as possible. Taking off, it’s a steeper than normal climb, followed by a power reduction due to noise regulations. I used to live in that area so flew in and out of that airport often.

    Kim, I'm a therapist and based on this video series you seem to be experiencing symptoms of anxiety which are causing you to get in your own way. Some anxiety is good, but too much can make you constantly second guess yourself, make your mind "go blank" during times of stress (like flight training), cause short-term memory issues, make your muscles tense and/or ache, and can make you feel on-edge. Message me if you'd like some free resources/help with reducing your symptoms. Not selling anything here, just paying it forward. I've been there and really struggled with my PPL due to anxiety.
