Flying traffic patterns is the equivalent of a musician playing scales. We might hate doing them but they really are a necessary evil. Practice does make perfect. I learned a lot in just a 15 minute video. Thanks Chris!
I earned my license back in the early 70's and was taught by an older gentleman who was old school. Just to give you an idea of how old school he was he allowed me to solo at 3.9 hours. I was begging at 2.5 hours if that tells you anything about me as a 23 year old. Anyway, he taught all his students to land POWER OFF in the Cessna 150. Every landing was POWER OFF, every time, no exceptions. His logic was until you could perfect a power off landing then you weren't safe. Making the runway under any circumstance was the point of it all, so if you had an engine failure anywhere in the pattern then you knew you were going to make it to the pavement. Learning power off approaches in a variety of aircraft will make you a better pilot, so if it's a Cherokee Six or an A36 or a Seneca or a Mooney, etc., don't hesitate to commit to this process. I watch pilots flying power on approaches in light airplanes and it makes me cringe. Extending patterns to the point where making the runway is totally engine dependent is simply an accident looking for a place to happen. Engines really do quit and then what; power lines, trees, houses, and other obstacles come into play when they don't have to if you learn power off landings. Sure, larger complex airplanes fly differently and are heavier on the controls with glide ratios more akin to rocks than airplanes, but in truth they still obey the same laws of aerodynamics as any airplane in the sky, including the space shuttle. Remember, every landing in the space shuttle was a power off landing. Lower glide ratios only make power off approaches a bit more challenging, so don't let that stop you from learning. There is absolutely no reason not to learn to land power off in just about any airplane, short of jets or heavy twins. Dragging your light airplane in on a 2 mile final with a 3 percent glide slope WILL bite you in the ass one day if the engine hiccups. And think again if you believe engine failures always happen to the other guy. This is my word to the wise. JD
Hey, exactly what I wanna say every time I am watching such videos! I am getting my license soon too (already >30hrs), and my instructor teachs me everytime to land w/o any power. This helps a lot to learn how to land in a point and how to calculate base position right.
@@OleksiiMaksymov Im in the same boat (or plane so to speak). My instructor has me land with power off from the beginning of turning onto base. Power off. Gentle turn. Set trim for best glide speed(60knt) Flaps accordingly and float on in
Agreed! With few exceptions, every landing I make in a single engine airplane is power off. I cannot overstate the uncomfortableness of driving to the runway dependent on power in a single engine plane!
You make excellent points. Over the years I've heard of so many crashes where the plane was on final and didn't make it to the runway. Like you said, power dependent approaches. Stupid. I tried to always stay above what I called a glide cone that started miles from the airport. You and I are about the same age and got our PPL about the same time. I got mine in a Cessna 150 in March 1972 at Fullerton, CA. How about you?
I solo’d for the first time yesterday, and you sound just like my CFI! Thanks for doing this, because it helps hearing &seeing this while in an armchair, rather than the left seat.
It's always good to be reminded of AND PRACTICE, the fundamentals of landing. I especially liked the fact that you demonstrated them in "wobbly wind". I don't remember the last time I had nice smooth air to land in. I kind of prefer it that way. I don't even turn the wind off in XPlane lol
That was a good session. Thanks. One of my instructors made it a point to teach many circuit techniques, including very close and also high speed circuits...both of which have come in handy. At some busy airports, it helps if you can carry a lot of speed on short final and land long to prevent long taxiing to the nearest exit on a busy runway.
Great vid. Reinforces one of the main things Ive just been learning. Just completed Practised forced landings and Engine failure in circuits. Staying within that safe margin from the runway is crucial. And yes even though Im fresh and still learning. It amazes me how many pilots fly cicuits outside that margin
This was extremely helpful! I am a rusty pilot and am just getting back into it after 9 years. I picked up the "in the air stuff" really quickly but have been struggling with my landings. Every mistake that you listed I have been doing (especially not using the rudders). Thank you!
Same as me mate! I get complemented by my CFIs on my air maneuvers but also strugle to perform good landings, specially when dealing with crosswinds and I also fly taildraggers!
Sometimes ...when a thank you isn't enough ...finding the right words that express the real debt of gratitude we should all feel for people like "Chris & his Angle of Attack" video is tough to find. So Chris even though the words are elusive just remember there are thousands who probably feel like me when i say " im grateful you gave your time to make this video, im thankful for your willingness to share such skill and knowledge & i only hope somewhere sometime in the future all your generosity comes back to you in a way that makes you feel great. I love flight and whilst i've yet to do my PPL i know watching this video again and again brings me so much closer so much quicker thank you Chris. I hope my message inspires you to keep up the great work you're doing. Rodrigo
Your videos are very helpful for this up and coming pilot. I actually have been flying out of your airport of Homer on the new 2020 Flight Sim. I will be watching your videos while I am at the office, then I go home and practice what you teach on my Home simulator set up. Thank you! I cannot wait to get started for real.
I'm just finishing my solo flights here in the UK In an EV97 Eurostar. Just want to say thank you for posting this video. Your teaching is very clear and very helpful. I loved the video. Thank you.
Such an important topic not just to learn but to be able to teach as flight instructors! Perspective in the approach is a huge lesson students have to grasp to recognize their hight above the ground to start the flare!
Absolutely fantastic tutorial. The camera angle from the cockpit onto the runway was the best I have seen. It was like being in the cockpit with a play by play for the landing.
Really like this. I have a PPC but none of my instructors really never explained in detail the why. The thing though is most of my training was at an airport with a lot of strong cross winds and without truly knowing why, and my body just did the right thing during landing. I still remember my first Oh Sh!! moment when I was landing on a icy runway with a strong crosswind not using the rudders and had a sideload and got sideways, luckily my instructor was there and helped me correct my mistake. and when I say side ways I really mean my nose about 45 degrees to the left from center line and sliding. I didn't freeze up though. I tried to recover but in the end my instructor had to step in. I also remember when I was practing forward slips and this particular airport had a golf course we flew over on final. I purposely was high and came down and you can see these 2 golfers looking and pointing at my aircraft and started running because they thought i was about to crash because they weren't use to that.Oh and one time I got into the wake turbulence of a c-130. Man those were some good times.
this teaching strategy is so nice!!!!! setting up the problems then bringing it all together makes it make so much sense. can you do something like this for other maneuvers?
Throttle on! .... great video... I'm still grounded due to covid restrictions... hope next week they will be lifted and I get to fly again. This video came out at great time just as I am refreshing all my knowledge. Thank you. Looking forward to videos on doing forced landings and other key maneuvers.
Superb video and a real achievement to talk so cogently and fly at the same time! Very revealing to see all the mistakes we all may have made over the years. Good to overcome the psychological reluctance to go around and not "stuff it down" at any price, which Chris did emphasise. Particularly liked the fact that Chris emphasised that the landing is not over until the aircraft is stationery. Very easy to get bitten by a moment's inattention on the landing roll which happened to me recently
Hi Chris. I’m started doing my CFI training and i learn so much from the way you explain procedures & maneuvers specially this common landing mistakes. Just a suggestion, maybe it’s good to show in your camera the left downwind (view) distance from the runway (too far or too close to the runway). It will surely help the viewers specially the new pilots in judging distance. Thanks for your helpful teaching.
I thought the same thing when I first viewed this video. I think a plus is mentioning the distance to the runway in the pattern. I see a lot of variance in patterns, even when I see someone posting a "great" pattern session, with many tracks nearly on top of one another. The actual pattern might be very large. There are also some "fuzzy" comments, such as the references to "nice and close", "a nice shallow turn". Because this vid is targeted to helping those who need the advice, I think that real numbers are very useful, as well as the left camera. That is something that is really helpful, and should be shown often during the downwind run.
Hi there! I have wanted to learn to fly since high school. I am now age 54 and in pursuit of getting started 1st quarter 2021. I am enjoying your sharing information and video work. Thank you!
this was great for me!! I am going on hour 6. Hour 5 yesterday was slow flight and landing and I just couldn't get the concept of slow flight and reverse command. I need to get better at landings, and this did help me a ton. Thank you so much!! I have subscribed and look forward to seeing more videos.
That tail number looks really familiar to me. I think I used to give flight instruction to the owner at Merrill Field back in the late 90s, early 2000's. Good video, thanks.
I now have a new video to recommend to people! As an upcoming instructor as well I love watching these because it shows me some excellent teaching techniques. Then of course I can apply them to my own flying!
I really enjoyed the video. It is helpful. I will be starting my training again and Soldotna next week. Look forward to watching more of your videos in the future. One of these days I'll get down to Homer and say hello
I'm just a sim pilot but: On the wide patterns, the reason I find myself doing them is because it gives me more time to work everything and makes me feel more in control. A proper pattern usually means (for me anyway) so many things happening all at once and it gets overwhelming. Now I know that's just down to practice practice practice, but just wanted to maybe give some insight into the inept student's mind :D
I would have expected you to say that you were re-trimming the elevator with each power or flap change. A non-pilot or student might think that you're continually pushing or pulling on the yoke to maintain the desired airspeed. I was taught to use the yoke to bring the airplane to the proper speed and then trim the pressure off so that I could relax the muscles in my arm and the airplane would maintain that airspeed on its own..
Correct.... in the case of prop driven aircraft you use Pitch Attitude or Elevator, to control your Airspeed on approach and better to hold that Control position firm once you have attained your Vref speed with set power for that speed. Then adjust your descent or glideslope by use of incremental Power.... OFF to descend or ON to stop rate of sink and or gain height or remain level..... until you get back on glideslope...... while keeping that Elevator position fixed which keeps your Airspeed locked on at your set approach speed without having to chase it in an inept way.
#2 Line up on centerline. Look beyond the departure end of the runway as you are rolling out on final and lineup right on the center every time. Don’t look at the approach end on base-to-final until your are lined up.
Good energy management pointers. Talk about how to "see" the "crash point" to explain the visual. Maybe a mention of rudder control and tailwheel aircraft, should one of your viewers someday have a chance to fly one...
I wondered on short final why your head was darting to the left, then realised you were check speed. I forget the right seat has limited instruments. BTW, great onboard camera angles helps me see what you are looking for.
Very helpful video! I have trouble with the landing skills myself, mainly to much speed as asdressed in the video. I think it's a little bit instinct due to turbulences caused by the lines of trees you'll find near the treshold at many airstrips in northern germany. The other issue is to determine the right moment to flare. Do you have a tip for this, too?
Having trouble with your landings? These timeless tips can help you get back on track and land with better precision and safety.

"You have to use little bits of rudder here and there while you're landing."

Good job!!!
I'm just a sim pilot but:
On the wide patterns, the reason I find myself doing them is because it gives me more time to work everything and makes me feel more in control. A proper pattern usually means (for me anyway) so many things happening all at once and it gets overwhelming. Now I know that's just down to practice practice practice, but just wanted to maybe give some insight into the inept student's mind :D
Awesome really useful!
That was good teaching.
I would have expected you to say that you were re-trimming the elevator with each power or flap change. A non-pilot or student might think that you're continually pushing or pulling on the yoke to maintain the desired airspeed. I was taught to use the yoke to bring the airplane to the proper speed and then trim the pressure off so that I could relax the muscles in my arm and the airplane would maintain that airspeed on its own..
Correct.... in the case of prop driven aircraft you use Pitch Attitude or Elevator, to control your Airspeed on approach and better to hold that Control position firm once you have attained your Vref speed with set power for that speed. Then adjust your descent or glideslope
by use of incremental Power.... OFF to descend or ON to stop rate of sink and or gain height or remain level..... until you get back on glideslope...... while keeping that Elevator position fixed which keeps your Airspeed locked on at your set approach speed without having to chase it in an inept way.
#2 Line up on centerline. Look beyond the departure end of the runway as you are rolling out on final and lineup right on the center every time. Don’t look at the approach end on base-to-final until your are lined up.

good info for new pilots. Or those who rarely fly.
Very helpful video! I have trouble with the landing skills myself, mainly to much speed as asdressed in the video. I think it's a little bit instinct due to turbulences caused by the lines of trees you'll find near the treshold at many airstrips in northern germany. The other issue is to determine the right moment to flare. Do you have a tip for this, too?
Hey Chris if you can find a strip cut out of the trees that's a good one - no wind/air all of a sudden.
