Have always loved the early morning flights. Especially in the fall when the air gets crisp. The planes just fly better and so so smooth. Sun coming up just reminds you that the day is ready to be awesome. Thanks for sharing.
What you said around five minutes is one of the many reasons why I fly too! I had the joy of taking my parents up as my first passengers yesterday on my 17th birthday.
Wow congratulations! That will be a memory you won't forget. I can totally relate, as my dad was my first passenger 10 minutes after my checkride when I got my license at 17 too. Welcome to the club and again congrats.
Nice vid keep up the great work. I just got done with a flight a hr ago was nice and smooth. Did turns around a point circles around a road and some slip landings and regular landings. Doing some fine tuning then I’ll be able to solo.
Hi Keaton - I might be wrong here but I open cowl flaps just prior to landing so that in the event of a go-around I don't forget to re-open them and accidentally over-heat the engine and have to pull it back during a time when I need it most (I have a JPI engine monitor that barks at me anytime CHT's hit 400). I keep them closed all through descent though. I'm not an instructor so don't take my word for it
I noticed you said cowl flaps open on your landing check list. Our 182 landing checklist says to close the cowl flaps. I wonder if that’s different on different year models. Ours is an L model.
Good question. I might be wrong here but I open them just prior to landing so in the event of a go-around I'm not overheating the engine and having to pull it back when I need it most. I keep them closed all through descent though.
I’d say go for it. If your looking to become a commercial pilot it’s recommended you have a bachelors degree. If you already have one great go for that school if you don’t have a ba deg then I’d look for a college that has a pilot program like the one I’m attending.
Nice! I don't have personal experience with Thrust but they have been growing like crazy. I trained at American Flyers and always had a good experience. Either of those would likely be a good choice. The main thing is committing to it and finishing it (a lot of people start but don't finish, even with their private license). So make sure you pursue it at a time when you can commit to it.
I see new to aviation posting; Please discuss how you clipped R-6302 and how comm's with KGRK mini-regional can determine active or not active since they have familiarity with that + seems you got FL 055 from Ft Worth → from memory it is above 12,000 not to get hit with a practice 155mm mobile tracked howitzer there which in my opinion is greatly more important than Class B Airspace Disclosure: I like flying and got 17 hours in trainers but will not be confident working except going for IFR Commercial ▬ I did get time on table-top device whence discovered IFR is what appeals to me
@@hobie1613 What is that "airway" that I see non-commercial at night which guess is going Georgetown to Ft. Worth▬not a marked "air-route" goes approximately Farm to Market Road 2409 ~ about 1 vehicle an hour maybe all of them appear non-commercial prop
Hobie 1 is correct below. I was talking to ATC and that portion of the restricted airspace was cold that day so they let me through. I realize that shown in the timelapse it looks like I busted the airspace though!
@@AirplaneAcademy I am completely sure of that; My goal is one day with instructor I am about to bust NAS Dallas which he ask's me do you know where we are? To which I reply nope but we are not close to ... and firewall the throttle at 045 already climbing; Fine point we do not pull out wadd's of paper in a cloud and do training that should occur on the ground-there is a workup on this in the back of one of the federal manual's that old-timers start flipping dials on all the new gadgets ••• today's grads often cannot do an NDB approach Not that I could either;
Hey airplane academy, I am an aspiring private pilot. My goal is to not only earn my VFR but also my IFR rating. I was reading your articles about how long it takes to earn those ratings. I was wondering if you have any tips on the fastest way to earn enough hours to begin your IFR rating, because it seems to me that doing cross country flights without the option of instruments is very difficult thanks.
Hi and congratulations on wanting to pursue aviation. I can't recommend it enough. There's no "short cut" in training, but there are ways you can double dip some of your hours and flight experience if you plan ahead. Make sure you tell your instructor or flight school that you plan to get other ratings past your private and they can help you plan ahead on your training to make it more efficient.
That was a gorgeous flight. Thanks for sharing. You are right. Those of us who get to do this are truly blessed. Fly safe and fly often.
Glad you enjoyed! We truly are. See you in the skies!

Thank you for some amazing views!
You're welcome! Glad you enjoyed!
It's been a couple years since I flew the 182Q. This made me very nostalgic! I want to go flying now!
Thank you 🙂
Thank you! Trying to motivate folks towards aviation :)

Thanks again, great weather eh.
Glad you enjoyed!
Awesome! It was great to hear all of the communication. Thanks for sharing.
Sure thing! Glad you enjoyed.
Beautiful, greetings from Argentina
All the way from Argentina, that's awesome!
Staying safe through covid, And enjoying flying 👌

I am glad I am not the only one who does lights, Camera (transponder), action

I’m from Ennis, lol! I’m planning to becoming a pilot and thinking about attending thrust flight school in Addison. Any thoughts?

19 hours of training hopefully i can finish my PPL in 2021
Awesome! And yes, you got this!!

You can fly through a restricted area as long as it’s cold.
The controllers at grk talk to the people that control the restricted area and relay that back to the pilot as to if it’s hot or not.

very jealous
Music is not needed.
I agree.
You should practicing talking faster on the radio. We love to hear jibberish
