33-18 = 15. Someone help me understand how he got 8 please
He's with the Congressional Budget Office apparently.
He did make a come back on the compass depiction you got to give it to him for that he is a visual learner like myself this is why as pilots we always studying and revising stuff
In what world is 33 - 18 = 8?
I'm sorry I know this video is old, but your math doesn't seem right in that first example 33-18 isn't 8 and 25-7 isn't 8
Thank you. I like the second method as it seems very very easy.
You are welcome!
this was actually very helpful , especially with the compass circles for using point of reference me being a very visual hands on thinker / learner this actually makes sense to me ;) thanks so much
Glad I could help! Safe travels.
25 MINUS 7 = 8 ??????????
😄😄😄😄
18 gallons fuel - 10 = 20 gallons left. Yeah, we have enough fuel. Unreal!
Yep, ya caught my error and it's appreciated! The math went wonky there but the approach (pun intended) should be spot on :)
??? 33 - 18= 8 ?
??? 25 - 7 = 8 ?
Please explain - what am I missing here?
What's going on with the math?
Hello, Captain. Great methods to choose the right runways. Congratulation for your excellent tutorial. Regards. Larissa.
Many thanks!
Great explanation.
Thank you so much. Your video really helped me understand. Keep the good work
Thanks, will do!
Yo!! what in the world is going lol 33-18=8??? And 25-7=8??? Please explain
One of the many mysteries of flight.
33-18 is 8. Please explain???????
Simple math error :) Sorry for the confusion. The approach is correct though.
Yeah, but you left out part of the info you can quickly determine by this method. Left or right pattern based on your position relative to the airport and whether you would be in a better position for entry on the downwind or base. Assuming pattern is up for pilots discretion.
We learn together!
Uh, and you're supposed to do this math in your head while you're approaching an airport? I like the new math. 25-7 = 8????
Super edgy math :) Bit of a mistake there I will have to admit.
omg u helped me so much! thank you!
I'm so glad!
@@TheThriftyPilot passed my knowledge test today!
@@goontube74 Whoo hoo!!! That's a huge deal - I ran upstairs to congratulate ya. So, congratulations and welcome to the club - glad to have ya.
@@TheThriftyPilot Thank you sir!
I wish I had found this a few weeks ago! My instructor keot asking me which runway to use, and it would take me forever to think through it. Just a couple of days ago.ni figured out that math technique on my own. Great video!
Glad this could help :) Stay safe up there!
Thank you so much!!
Glad it helped!
you are awesome I finial get it.
Glad it was helpful to ya. Stay safe out there!
“ at a biggillion knots” hahaha thank you for the video!
Haha, glad you like it :)
could you make this any more complicated? note to self.......look at wind sock, land into the wind. (the big end is pointing into the wind, the little end is pointing downwind. hint, you do NOT want to land downwind! do you make everything in life this complicated? wow! can't believe it took you 17 minutes to totally confuse yourself and discourage anyone who was thinking they might want to be a pilot! i could make the above video in less than 1 minute, but of course my goal would be to actually make this simple to understand and not to make a long winded video for whatever reason folks do this.
Maybe he was thinking about this fun fact about the number 8! Which is why he wasn’t able to complete basic math.
The number 8 is considered extremely lucky in Chinese culture because it sounds like the word for wealth and prosperity.
I feel like an idiot because I dont get how 33 minus 18 = 8. I'm sure its very easy but I'm missing it like a dullard. I get everything else in principle and its a good lesson though.
I cant believe people found this helpful , with all incorrect math calculations it's very misleading for new pilot in training, along with not explaining what if you have a negative number.
Tell me the factors that are used determine runway width mr
CM^3 but as you can tell, I did make a slight error in the video with my arithmetic :)
That equation helps me out tremendously, thank you! :)
Glad it helps :)
Best teacher you are bro👍 if you were a CFI i would have enrolled with for my ppl journey.
Thanks really appreciate it - just trying to give back a bit - safe travels.
Thanks for taking time to help but your is wrong
But the one thing i am concerned with if everybody used this method which is a good choice based on aid of weather then a couple runways would be used as others just wasted.
Nothing beats formal training with an instructor mixed in with some common sense!
You showed easy to figure out scenarios. You land on the runway closest to the wind. What you need to show is more divergent winds rather than just 30 degrees off of heading. For instance runway 5/23 winds 310@ 6KT.
Thanks for the advise as it might help others as well!
Well this is going to be very helpful since my Instructor is a big A.hole and doesn't know how to teach. .
33-18 = 8? What’s going on?
So basically you want to land on a runway closest to wind coming directly at you to aid stopping. (also taking in picking asphalt or concrete over rocks or grass surfaces for better stopping / just better for your plane). And your other method when it goes over 9 your just using the reciprocal runways
Land against the wind and everyone wins!
EXCELLENT! Thank you for the explanatory remarks and options. Very nice to see it presented in a logical and understandable manner.
Glad I could help. Thanks for taking a look.
Is this that new math ive been hearing about in the schools? We're all doomed 😂😂😂
Absolutely because where I come from 33 minus 18 is 15 right?
@@marcusjohnson3k it was when I was in school.
Do you have an easy math algorithm for figuring crosswind?
Not yet! Might look into it though and do a follow up!
Hey thanks for the explanation. When you have a chance drop a note on the video correcting your subtractions.
Thanks, will do!
What if you get a negative number? Example, 28-RWY36=-8
Still go with lowest?
yeah i am very much a visual hands on thinker and learner so it really makes most sense once you break out those visuals with the compass lay outs thank you so much for this tutorial ! itis very helpful
Excellent! Happy flying!
@@TheThriftyPilot thanks man ! i started officially on may 1st. i got my second training session in june !
Doesn't the tower work this out and tell you which runway to land on? Definitely in larger aircraft.
25_7is 18
Yeppers!
Ok I am glad I am not the only one who noticed that! I am HORRIBLE with math (have to pull off my socks to count my toes!), but I thought...wait...25-7 is...18.
Thank you
You're welcome
Thank you for this video
25 - 7 = 8 🤣🤣
Congrats, you have found the Easter egg....because I totally meant to say that :)
