Jason , I think your observation about developing the decision making skills is absolutely on point. Being a pilot is so much more than manipulating the flight controls.
I read a great book called “How We Learn” by Benedict Carey. It describes a lot of what you’re talking about and has some great references to studies regarding memory retention and why switching material and coming back can aid learning. It’s definitely interesting and made me change how I study. I’m a student pilot and just discovered your channel. Great stuff keep it up!
Great one, Jason. I’ve done your “Class D, to Class C, to untowered” example and it works as you’ve described. Maybe I’ll use this ‘mixed-practice’ in my golf game. 😃
Jason, you shared an awesome example! It's not just for aviation, but for anything else we need or want to learn. Also, I fully agree with your topic's conclusion. On point!
Wonderful podcast...I am a private pilot who is also a certified teacher ( B.A. and B.Ed.). Eventually I will be instructing...I'm working towards my CPL at the moment. I absolutely love how you integrate the science of learning into your instruction. I whole heartedly intend to do this as well once I complete my CPL and CFI training. As a certified teacher it is something I am already trained, and experienced in, and boy, do I ever see what happens in some flying schools that do not integrate the science of learning into flight instruction. Just so that you are aware, teaching good decision-making is completely experiential. Create a sense of structure in the student's lesson plans...yes, I said....lesson plans...I don't usually see lesson plans in some flight school....this structure should be implemented in every brief, and debrief...then, Put the student into various situations (mixed learning), then have them make go-no go decisions based on real-time flying practice....stalls, spins, chandelles, diversions, emergency descents, precautionary landings...with enough variation in the maneuvers and practice procecures, each decision-point will be practiced, as well. Decision making is a lesson in and of itself, and should be taught in ground school...it is probably the single most important thing to learn. Know when to make the decision not to go...using good judgement...knowing when to utilize a Mayday call when something happens during the flight...as opposed to a PanPan...in the end, flying is truly about good judgement and decision-making...flying comes second! Thank you for all you do, your work is incredible!!!
Great podcast. I'm not a CFI, but you brought back memories of my training. I was fortunate enough to fly in complicated airspace out of a Delta under Bravo and out to CTAFs. Thanks for all you do.
@@MzeroAFlightTraining Hi Jason, maybe I'll see you guys out there next year then. I'm hoping to get back into flying soon. About 12 years ago, the fbo that I was renting from decided to sell their 152's and they then raised the rates on their VFR 172's to $110 per hr. Couldn't afford it at that price. Do you know of any aircraft rentals around KPIE that are less expensive? Fly safe and have a great day!
You nailed it Jason! 💯 agreed. Good decision making skills and risk vs reward analysis is the hardest to teach! I look forward to more on this! Love all of your videos. Huge help to me as a bit of a newbie CFI. Thanks to you and the entire MZEROA team!
Create scenarios in a way that it is vivid enough to gain from! Because yea you can make up a scenario but visually seeing whats going on as you take off and knowing what to look for and how to interpret whats happening visually you can begin to understand and make a decision. Because I know of some scenarios where you have to use your imagination but creating a scenario as real as possible can possibly do wonders.
Decision making is about judgement, and judgement takes experience and seeing different situations. Maybe simulators could be used to expose students to a greater number of different situations then they might get with actual flying.
Are pilots prone to having back problems? I'm a trucker that holds a private pilot's license and thinking very seriously of changing careers. I know I won't get away from lots of sitting. I weight train and it seems to negate the muscle atrophy from hours of sitting, but the jarring of the truck going down the road is wearing on my back. I've never flown anything but small planes at low altitudes. Does turbulence experienced at high speeds and altitudes compare to a truck on a bumpy road?
Best source for teaching Decision making is by referring to errors of judgement and big/fatal mistakes. ..otherwise learning to listen to your intuitive/fear compass rationally.
Hey Mr. Jason, I am getting ready to go to pompano for CFI training next month and I am looking for someone to spin endorse me. I have been looking and can not find anyone that does it, would you be able to help with that?
Hi Nick! We are not providing in person flight instruction at this time. We recommend using this article when choosing a CFI: www.m0a.com/choosing-a-flight-instructor/ Good luck in your spin and CFI training! If you need any help along the way please reach out to us at support@mzeroa.com. Fly safe!
99% of mine are non controlled. I may go to a class D once or twice a year. My radio is almost stuck on 122.9. 🤣 When I do you have to go into a class D I catch myself 20 miles out rehearsing what I have to say. And been doing this for the last 27 years ha ha.
Come on, it really is not hard, you just need someone who explains it in simple words. Id say the hardest part is imagining it all as it is all, well..., imaginary for the purpose of vertical separation and keeping everyone safe.

I hit the talk button and my mind goes.... "Duuhhhhhhhh" lol
I hear you! Radios can be tricky. Keep on practicing! Thanks for watching!

Nice video thanks for posting
You bet!
Jason, thank you for the great flight instruction and the awesome videos. Are you guys going to Sun-N-Fun this year?
Hi Jonathan! Thanks for your comment! Unfortunately we are not attending this year, but we hope to see you at an event in the future. Fly safe!

Hey Cynthia! Thanks so much for watching!
Hi Jason, I always learn something from your videos. Thanks for doing this one especially.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Create scenarios in a way that it is vivid enough to gain from! Because yea you can make up a scenario but visually seeing whats going on as you take off and knowing what to look for and how to interpret whats happening visually you can begin to understand and make a decision.
Because I know of some scenarios where you have to use your imagination but creating a scenario as real as possible can possibly do wonders.
Teaching in a variety of real world environments is one of the most fulfilling and productive methods that a learner can experience.
Jason's talk was great, thank you very much for sharing your knowledge😉
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent video and teaching points. Thank you buddy.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the podcast.
Our pleasure!
Decision making is about judgement, and judgement takes experience and seeing different situations. Maybe simulators could be used to expose students to a greater number of different situations then they might get with actual flying.
Hi Phil! Great insight. Yes, a simulator can help with practicing things that can't really be practiced in the real airplane. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for the video content. Training for my instrument right now, so this topic is something I definitely consider.
Glad it was helpful!
the hardest thing to aviation is MONEYYYYYYYY
Yes! Both making it and spending it.
Thanks for tuning in!
You are a great pilot. Have learned how to think like a piolt from You. Soon as get money will attend flight school

Thanks for tuning in! We wish you all the best in your flight training!

What does the FAR (not AIM) say about approaching class E airports? Is it 1/2 mi final? 1-mi final?

When I do you have to go into a class D I catch myself 20 miles out rehearsing what I have to say. And been doing this for the last 27 years ha ha.
Thanks for watching! Rehearsing is still good practice even after 27 years!
Before I hear what it is, I've gotta say the hardest thing to LEARN was airspace
E and G rules are all over the place. Needs to be redone. Add H and I or something
Come on, it really is not hard, you just need someone who explains it in simple words.
Id say the hardest part is imagining it all as it is all, well..., imaginary for the purpose of vertical separation and keeping everyone safe.
Hi Aspen! Indeed, airspace can be tricky!

I envy her access to 23MZ.

12 instructors into my private pilot certificate, have yet to find one that cares about anything but their paychecks. What the students want doesn’t seem to matter.
12??? Are you at the same school? Maybe you’re not a good flight student? Learning is a two way street. Something is really wrong.
Hi Jimmy, we are sorry to hear about this. Please reach out to us at support@mzeroa.com so we can see how we can help. Thanks!
sounds like what you're teaching is getting comfortable with being uncomfortable
