Hey Will, this and your other videos are awesome! I’m looking to join the club soon so hopefully I’ll get to meet you one day. Keep up the great content, it’s great to see aviation shared 😎
Nice video. Got a little harder to understand once you went on your headset, but after watching a couple times, I got the hang of it. Thanks. What button did you push on the MFD? i didnt quite catch that ??? Thanks and nice job. Making a transition from steam gauges to G1000.
In short, no. Cessna C172S has two fuel pumps, an engine driven pump and an electric pump. The fuel pump switch controls the electric pump, which is used during prime procedure or abnormal/emergency situations. Once the starter is engaged when you turn the key, it pops out and connects to the flywheel. Turning the flywheel would also spin the engine, which would drive the engine-driven pump.
@@WillOstrick ah, didn't know there was a fuel injected version. I trained on a 1972 model many years ago and haven't kept up with them. It was immediately to the left of the throttle.
@@CaptainXanax Ah, very interesting. Makes sense that they would of had a carb heat, these aircraft have been around awhile now haven't they. TQO is a 2003 model with a AEIO-360
Apologies @CaptianXanax for some reason i thought your comment was on a different video with the Super Decathlon. Although this particular Cessna a 2008 172s VH-KXW is also fuel injected and has basically the same engine, io-360 "non Areobatic" 😊
That was good but the “clear the prop” had me dying with laughter 😅
I'm a total beginner, I couldn't understand that bit. Was it just a joke or is it more than that?
@@luciomorris8438 actually they should do this so people around can also hear that youre about to star the engine
Very easy to understand for a total beginner like me. I understood how and why we prime the engine, everything now makes sense to me.
Big change from the old "steam driven" Cessnas I used to fly.
Great video thanks Will. 👍My fave acft and avionics -very enjoyable to fly
0:13 best 90 seconds of my life.
Great vids mate 👍 clear prop very ‘angle of attack’ like ☺️
Be good to see the next step with how you setup the Nav on the G1000 MFD too
Hahaha, I was hoping someone would get it 😂
We can certainly show a little more on the flight planning side 👍
Thank yours much!
This was great information

Regards Badger. For MFD, after verification of data base currency, press ENT button on RHS above FMS knobs. Happy transition to flying G1000😊
Thanks pertermitchell, spot on mate :)
very good
NICE VIDEO
Do you turn back on the fuel pump when it starts?
In short, no.
Cessna C172S has two fuel pumps, an engine driven pump and an electric pump. The fuel pump switch controls the electric pump, which is used during prime procedure or abnormal/emergency situations. Once the starter is engaged when you turn the key, it pops out and connects to the flywheel. Turning the flywheel would also spin the engine, which would drive the engine-driven pump.
@@kylechen527 Awesome and got ya...thank you very much for that.
What's the glide ratio for Cessna that you were flying
It's about 9:1
CleeeaaAAAaarRrrrrrrRr prop!
Where's the carb heat on those things now?
This one is fuel injected, I'm not sure where it is on the earlier models.

Clear Prop! This makes sure people outside the plane knows the propeller is going to start.
@@PerthHunter 😂😂
@@WillOstrick omfgggggg !!’nn 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I was hoping it wouldn’t start
😂
As an aircraft mechanic I don’t think you should be showing anybody how to start an airplane.
what if your running from bad people and have to get away
As an aircraft.. I don't think you should be working on us.
Bro I can fly that plane well while being 13 yo boy 💀💀💀
