I made this video as some filler content while you guys wait for the next ATC video, hope you enjoy!!! #aviationlovers #swiss001landings #microsoftflightsimulator #vatsim #littlerock
Hey man! No hate when I say this, but you’re definitely fast. I did my PPL through commercial in a warrior before transitioning to Cirrus. You’re gonna want your final approach speed to be stall + 15 knots. Other than that, on base and final you should try to be 80/85 knots and 500 feet AGL at the base turn. Great job though!
Yep! I agree, I fly the piper irl and my speed in the pattern is usually fine. But in the sim my power management and decent is off because I have trouble feeling and hearing the aircraft like I would irl. So in the video I had to correct by bleeding the speed off when I was above the runway. I also struggled with my base turn to final because I couldn’t look for the runway like I would irl. The speed was also the primary reason I bounced the first one, as I was trying to bleed it off in the flair. Glad someone noticed it because I was definitely feeling it
@@ctrent03 yeah, I totally agree. Ever since I got eye tracking my patterns have been better. I also got a force feedback yoke that has helped tremendously. It also helps to use an adapter with your irl aviation headset (I use A30s) to let you hear the engine and wind noise. But remember, you can always do a slip to bleed of speed.
0:48 Why do people still read the METAR? All I do is go into the FMS and get the ATIS via datalink, or if I'm not in a plane with an FMS, I'll just tune the ATIS and listen to it, which is also way easier than taking the time to decode a METAR
I got tripped up thinking other PA-28 do rotate at 55, asked my CFI, and they said for short feild it could technically be 65 but other than that, its all I could find!
Love your videos, keep going man 💪
hey love your videos but i really think you should get more lights in your room so we can see your face more
I will! I have been looking for some and will get them in the next few days!

@@alekberry5491ohhh I actually never thought of using an adapter. That would be sick!
@@ctrent03 I used one from flight sounds. They have a working side tone feature like aircraft intercoms. They really increase the immersion

No atis at an uncontrolled airspace in vatsim. And Pa-28 fms can’t check altimeter. METAR is the only other option 🥲
first view and comment lol i just looked at your channel bet you wern't expecting this
you rotate at 75? POH says 55, no? Maybe im trippin
Depends on the plane. On this piper Cherokee rotate is 70 but I was a lil heavy so it was 75
@@ctrent03 it must be in MPH, no?
@@Eatenbyapumait is mph yes

@@ctrent03 ahhh ok cool. Thought we were talking knots
