Don’t forget part 2 where I go into great detail regarding geography and the effects of mechanical turbulence, as well as understanding pressure zones and weather fronts.

Timeless wisdom from Mr. Goin

I love lifted ppg!! Binging his stuff lately. He deserves way more views. I find myself going back to videos cause I remember different parts
I appreciate this Bryce! So happy to know the channel is helpful ☺️
I’m just starting, looking for training, and a trike, your videos are the best on youtube for learning about this hobby! Thank you! You’re a great teacher!
Awesome very excited for you!! Be very selective on who you choose - the right teacher will set you up for the rest of your life 😄

Interesting
I’m still learning to remove hope from the equation. Earlier this week I took my wing out to a big open field for kiting practice on a mild and pleasant morning knowing that a tropical storm was brewing far to the south. Sure enough I was blind sided by a gust that immediately took the slack out of my risers and the wing took off like a rocket. Thankfully I wasn’t clipped in but I wanted to control it and was lifted a few inches before letting go. My lines are a tangled mess but that was a learning experience for sure. Your video content is very well-timed and relevant. Thank you Micah.😅
Wow, I am so glad you are okay Steve! Were you able to get the lines sorted out??
This was so helpful! I just started flying and I'm still trying to figure out the weather and when I should fly or not.
So happy to hear it! Welcome to the sport 🤗
Great content! Answered some of my exact questions after watching your video flying around the mountains. It also pairs well with reading through "Understanding the sky"
Thanks Chris! I’m glad you said that, I meant to link that book in the description 😄
Top notch content! Thanks for what you do!
Very nice thanks
This is a unique content, keep it up man
Will do my friend! I’m the only one in this industry putting out content to this level and I know it’ll be a blessing to many. Thanks for the support!!
Nice channel! Glad I found it. Nice to see the Kona 2 in action. Looks like the perfect "do-everything" wing.
I’m glad you are here Coleton, thanks for the support!
It really is a fantastic wing, not as sporty as I am used to but it challenges me in a good way for acro. Otherwise it is amazing for this altitude (launching at 9,000’).
So much valuable information, thank you so much.!!
Great content Micah, very helpful to this newer trike flyer. Your personal experiences and underlying knowledge help drive the key points home and easy to understand. Thank you!
I’m so glad to get this feedback, John! I’m glad you found it helpful. Spread the word, and thank you for the support. ☺️
And congrats on your new super power! 🙃
Excellent Micah. Love it.
Thanks Tom!
Super helpful video !!
Glad it was helpful! I'm hoping Dell sees it and rips it apart.
I can't wait to be a member of "the butt fan people" in the future
What are your plans?! Joining soon?
@@liftedppg4370 My wing should be in any day now. Ground training whenever weather permits all winter, then hopefully getting a motor come spring.
@@RocketBurn11 right on man! Stay tuned for a glider control video (aiming for next Friday). 🙂
Your stuff is always top notch. The 101 landings and launching vids you did at Aviator are the best out there on those subjects. Minor criticism: the background music on the narrative sections on this vid add nothing and are, IMHO, a bit intrusive and irritating. Keep up the good work - and best wishes from England 👍
Thank you very much for this support and feedback! I need more of this type of criticism 🙏
I think you got the square and rectangle thing backwards. All squares are rectangles but not all rectangles are squares.
Something like that haha 😉
Am I the only one who can seem to never find flyable days? I did my training 1.5 years ago and have not flown over 20 times since then. I’m in Indiana and winds seem to be gusting to at least 10-15mph every day. It’s been pushing me to sell but part of me doesn’t want to give up lol. I don’t fly during the winter so that cuts out half the year almost.
Any luck this season?
There are plenty of wonderful flyable days in Indiana, you are just inexperienced, and looking for a level of perfect that does not exist. Early mornings, and the last 1/2 hour before sunset, until you get comfortable, then expand on that as you grow comfortable ,
@@liftedppg4370 I’ve done a lot better this year
@@jerryp9375 youre not wrong. I had a really bad flight toward the end of my first year flying and it really shook me up
@@MrTyler8877 it will do that, especially early on. I get it.
I got caught in an outflow boundary gust front last week, and it shook me up pretty badly, and I have been flying Ultralights for decades.
I had to land in a road in a bean field, and call a ride like about 30 other people at Purdin’s Fly-in. Next day, back at it, but was pretty nervous the first few minutes
You gotta build your confidence, take your time, only lightly push the envelope, and stretch it out slowly .
Find those nice calm evenings, during the last hour of light,
Most of all, never feel bad calling it quits early. Live to fly another day
Did you leave aviator?
I did, the mountains were calling… no bad blood though and I’ll be going back for a class or two soon I hope!
Are yoj in Florida?
In Buena Vista, CO these days!
@@liftedppg4370 i love that area. From leadville on down to Buena Vista. Some high altitude you're flying in.
@@libertyforamericanow Yessir, a wing size up or two can make a big difference! Come on by and lets fly together! Where are you located?
