They all look chill once they're on the cockpit that's why their students learn immediately to the lesson given. (I'm a student pilot too from Philippines)
As a fellow student pilot, I think you did great! Just one thing, it looks like you created a lot of pilot induced turbulence by constantly moving the yoke back and fourth like that, just let the plane fly itself and it’ll be easier.
That’s exactly the advice my instructor gives me....he always says stop jerking the yoke so much and relax and let the plane fly and stop flighting it. Nice video
TheRoyalCastle The plane can fly just fine it is the pilots job to gently nudge it to the direction he wants to go at the airspeed and power settings within the envelope.
A very good and calm flight instructor. I used to have an old school flight instructor who used to fly DC-3s and other tailwheel airplanes. He used to pressure me on landing exactly on the runway centerline.
I like how everybody here in the comments apparently know better how to do it. Sure it wasn’t perfect but that’s why you learn and take an instructor with you. All of it was safe and perfectly acceptable for a student. From an ATPL student, well done 😉
It helps me as a student pilot to watch other student pilots. It goes to show how much time and effort new pilots (like myself) spend on trying to learn and retain a lot of new information in a time and how we’re constantly being nervous and meticulous and eager all at the same time. I think flying is overwhelming for these reasons for a lot of new pilots but like anything else, with time, it all becomes easier to manage. It’s all a mental game. Sidenote: I flew to Danbury once. Very interesting airport with all of the extremely close terrain factors. And watch out for Hotspot #4... that displaced hold short line gets a lot of pilots every year.
You did a good job keeping it straight putting it down.. You Forgot to check for suction and to pull carb heat on your run up though.. Both pretty important when flying and should be on that check list.. DONT rush through your checklists... They may save your life..
Great video. As a retired Grade 1 Instructor, it is so good good to see someone pursuing what will hopefully become their career. I used to be able to dance those aircraft down the strip on any one wheel.
Oh that there-ah sight pick-char... haven't flown in 5 years and FS2020 has reminded me. Great vid thanks! I love seeing people throwing Cessnas around the runway, reminds me of me.
Haven't started lessons yet but these vids have me pumped! Always loved planes but never learned to fly even when I was in the AF. Go figure!! Want to begin next year. Maybe move to Alaska and become a bush pilot, HA!! Great state!! Spent 2 years there when I was in the AF.If you haven't been, put it on your bucket list. You won't regret it!! Oh yea, not this time of year!! Even Anchorage, where I was stationed, has received record amounts of snow!! Ya'll fly safe and God bless!!
Same, just started ground school and going to complete that, along with the written test before i begin flight training. So so very eager to get in the plane, but i know i jeed to take this one step at a time
Great video! You and your instructor both look like great guys and I noticed how well both your communication with ATC and your landings were! I’m doing my first landing tomorrow!
Excellent work I had the bounce and late flare issue and my instructor wise old owl he was got me to do 2 approaches and percieve my position 1 ft of the ground.On the third approach smooth as no bounce of the black stuff.
I am used to flying the 172N, so that advancing mixture during the startup caught me off-guard! In the "N" model, you set the mixture to full rich before and leave it that way for the startup. I had to look up the 172R POH, only to find that the startup was exactly as it sold be! good job on your flying and landings btw, I can see you made good progress.
This is cool! Im just a line guy lol but every day i see students with instructors and sometimes here students complain about how the instructor doesn’t boost morale, in this occasion I can say you got an amazing instructor with you
U did a great job there,my instructor told me the same thing not to play with controls so much just watch my speed and height during approach and once u cross the threshold just give it a bit back pressure and hold it it will just touch down smoothly👍
I dont fly Cessnas, but it appeared to me that the speed was a little high on approach which cause the slight bounces. Also, remember to pull back on power when you made the runway and level off during flare. Typically, for the softest touch down, you'll hear the stall horn right as you are touching down. I'm a low time pilot, but that's my understanding.
Excellent Again...I really enjoyed the talk through the Pattern...A Great Refresher for me...I liked your little airplane demo...so Ocala...LOL....Willis Sutherland
I know it’s common to stall a Cessna on a flare, but on a longer runway like this one, wouldn’t it be safer to carry that little extra airspeed and maintain lateral control of the airplane? A faster airplane is always safer than a slow airplane.
You want to come into contact with the ground at the slowest possible airspeed...just hear that stall warning as you're flaring. That's far safer than coming in faster.
These landings were pretty flat, next time try to hold the nose up and keep the plane flying, to protect the nose gear. Great video and a nice instructor, cheers from Italy!
I got 3 out of 7 "awesome" landings today on my 3rd lesson today, my best definitely can't like your last one here! Fun stuff for you! I'm having trouble with my audio recording though... It worked today until I started the plane!
I learned to fly at KDXR! Great airport to practice landings at. Tough approach over the hills. I have since moved to Florida and flying in over flat land is just a little easier lol
that was great! im an avid flight simmer and starting lessons soon, personally i idle my thrust at around 10 feet and reduce my vspeed to like 100 and try to keep it there
Just started the video.. it drives me crazy to see the yoke just flopping around like that in the taxi, run up, and the Begining of the takeoff roll! You should hold it back to provide more prop clearance from sand erosion. Also to get in the habit of positioning it for the proper wind correction while taxing, but on calm days, it’s really to prevent wear on the prop tips.
I was good with landings when I started since I played a lot of flight sim as a kid, but when I was introduced to the patter I got confused, eventually you get it though.
People just don’t understand how hard this is or they forget what it’s like to be a beginner student. Literally like the moment you’re riding a bike and it clicks and you can suddenly stay upright. Landings are so difficult at first. And they still come back to bite you. This kids probably an airline pilot or something now, LOL
"Five years ago" come on, man! Give us an update, where you at now?! I'm in this point of my journey where my pattern is more trash than a baby's diaper. But this video helped me a bit!
Leveling off too late/low landing w too much energy. Level off a little earlier and burn off that extra energy to hear the horn sooner then flare out right before you touch.
Hey great video! I am at this same point in my flight training and I have been having some hard landings. It’s hard getting that soft touch you had at the last landing. Keep it up and thanks for the video. I think this will help me with my next lesson.
Good job indeed ! do not hesitate to get "rude" with the C172 ! This plane has an tendency to drive the pilot... while the pilot should drive it ! I had a qualification with this plane but I've been surprised how different handling it is compared to C152 ! C172 is a TRUCK, actually ! But it has a strong reliability end it is a sane plane. The only thing with it to be remembered is : treat is as a truck ! Pull frankly on the yoke on final. If you got the chance to try a C182 or a C177, you'll be surprised again because those planes are GREAT to fly with! C172 is just a "good worker" ! ;-)
Basically, when you flair, your trying to keep the nose of the aircraft level with the horizon in front? From the landing videos ive seen for new pilots it seems complicated.
Pretty much. In order to keep the attitude, it should result in yoke full back immediately on touchdown for a perfevt landing, but a bit forward isn't the ending the world as long as you have the attitude down.
I want to take flying lessons, but all that radio conversation, how can you hear your instructor? And how do you know if ATC is talking to you or someone else? It all seems so intimidating. JA
It just takes practice. I remember my first time listening to all the radio chatter, and I was just as confused as any other new pilot would be. But after several times flying, and some practice, you will learn how to listen when your callsign is called, what is being said on the radio, even while flying
Well done! On the topic of adjusting the heading bug right after liftoff, I would recommend not doing that. It's best to keep your hand on the throttle during the climbout just in case you have to abort. Otherwise, you did some really great flying! Keep it up!
Ask your instructor about this, but on takeoff stepping on the ball is a good way to keep the aircraft from drifting off runway centerline as you have full power in with all that torque
Hug Gaming A better idea is watching where you're going!!!!!! On takeoff, the only instrument you should be... glancing at, is the airspeed indicator! Fly the aircraft, not the instrument panel! (and get a better instructor).
Has it improved? I found I never had issues with radio calls. I stumble a little with complex taxi instructions but overall you shouldn’t be intimidated by it.
If the wind direction changes requiring the opposite end of the runway, would the left turn pattern not take you to the opposite side of the runway. People keep saying the traffic pattern can be determined by noise abatement. If left turn pattern is determined by turning left. No one seems to explain or address this issue. Pattern shown on the wind sock will make the pattern right turns .
Man amazing work on the last landing! I have the same exact issues with my landings. I tend to not flare as much. Watching these videos help me reflect on my own landings.
@@LuisDiaz-rp1ei Insane to think I commented 2 years ago. Unfortunately due to covid, I had to stop, but I will be going back full time in August. Looking forward to it. How's your training been? Did you finish your PPL?
I remember cranking the yoke quickly back and forth like that at first. Its called killing a snake in the cockpit. My instructor called me out on it and taught me an important lesson. Let the plane fly. Its inherently stable. If you look in the video the yoke is moving very fast and for no reason, the plane is doing nothing. Slow down!!! Seriously (even with comms, like the other comment suggested). On landing your hand will have more throughput to make better pitch corrections and smoother landings. I don't mean to be harsh, but I had a similar issue and was shown an important lesson. Let the plane fly and work for you.
I was saying that to myself how I saw that yoke moving quick, constantly, with no wind pushing the aircraft and I’m just thinking ease off the controls a bit, my second flight, I seemed to think too much of the heavy winds, even when no gusts are present I was thinking like I needed to adjust it, but I noticed how much I was doing that and I eased on the controls and noticed how little I had to adjust the controls.
I did the same thing during my initial flight training. What changed it for me was to think of the plane as a gradient as to a 0 and 1 input. I kept thinking CORRECT, CORRECT, instead of smooth it in, smooth it in. Good words of advice.
Im in the same point where it is hard for me to figure out the flare timing. I kept flaring too early as my human instinct is still somewhere inside me. Seems like it is one thing that I have to get rid of it and not to be shy on letting the altitude to stay to maintain the speed
He needs to flare much more and needs to build confidence that he won’t tail strike. The plane will Normally stall and land before you can pull back enough to tail strike
akshayd211 you are correct there is a push to talk on the yoke. Say who your calling and who you are then be quiet till they call you back. “Ft lauderdale executive tower Cessna 522niner Romeo”
Pallavee try searching “Nflightcam GoPro cable” or something similar on googles they’re the most well known company and have cables compatible with hero 3/4/5/6/7.
The standard traffic pattern is left hand traffic. When are you allowed to do right hand traffic? Only when that runway is designated for right hand traffic due to some sort of obstacle, etc. Remember that helicopters fly the opposite traffic patterns to keep them away from airplanes.
Was I mistaken or were you actually adjusting your DI whilst in the take off climb? Leaving aside the compass errors that occur whilst in the climb and descent, the DI must be set before you start your movement towards the runway after the pre-take off checks.
I am also 16 (turning 17 on Wednesday). Student pilot and going to my solo in about 2 weeks here in Norway! :) Great video, fly safe! See you in the cockpit one day. ;)
Holy airspeed turning base! It obviously works, but I was taught to chop throttle back to about 15-1700 rpm abeam the numbers and go 10 flaps pitch for 80. Looked like you had 110+ airspeed and no flaps when turning base?
I have lots of hours and lots of ratings but those first few hours of learning to land with your instructor were the most fun and rewarding.
Just did 8 landings today! It was amazing!
your instructor looks so chill and laid back, seems like a cool guy!
They all look chill once they're on the cockpit that's why their students learn immediately to the lesson given. (I'm a student pilot too from Philippines)

@@marcochavez11 keep on pressing on! It’s a wonderful thing this flying…
@@tinothepilot yes sir, l agree with you.

That made me nervous as well. I was getting the heading bug on 260 (Runway heading). Good to debrief though!
Also the heading bug cant be accurately set unless you're straight and level. Agreed.

2.5? wow you are damn good!
Very nice! But just a tip to every beginner, don't look at the end of the runway. Look like 5 or 6 ''lines'' away. It's more efficient belive me :D.
Holy airspeed turning base! It obviously works, but I was taught to chop throttle back to about 15-1700 rpm abeam the numbers and go 10 flaps pitch for 80. Looked like you had 110+ airspeed and no flaps when turning base?
Good job kid you'll be a pro in no time
Thanks man!
where do you attach your camera and what mount are you using? I'd like to record lessons for my students
