    My wife and I are both student pilots and we have watched everything Cyndy has done on TH-cam. Her videos are fantastic. According to her ratings above it proves that there are about 10 complete idiots with a vendetta to every 1000 normal people. Keep up the great work. We love your stuff. So precise and concise. As for cross wind landings, this is about all we do in north Texas. "Left aileron, right rudder" is ingrained in our minds from our instructor.

      I would recommend you learn the side slip to a landing before using a crab and slide slip together. Control authority decreases with a decrease in airspeed making it difficult on the transition as you have little time to make the adjustment from crab to slip.

    As a simmer and prospective student, this is the FIRST time I've heard it said that touching down one main gear first is OKAY, or expected. It's always seemed like a paradox that you should touch down both mains at the same time in a crosswind, without crabbing. Something's got to give! Very nicely explained.

    This video help better understand the crosswind landings. I hadn't seen/noticed anywhere else about the slip tendency due to wind+stabilisor. Also a good point has been mentioned about power almost at the end of the video, when using side slip method to land. I hadn't thought about it.

    The airplane doesn't Weathervane into the wind. You have to be attached to something on the ground like a pole to weathervane. The reason the aircraft is flying sideways all the way down is because the airmass is moving and you are trying to fly straight across a moving airmass which would look like from the ground an airplane flying sideways. Also, when you straighten the fuselage to align it with the runway, you will be in a slipped condition which means an imbalance of forces. Left rudder causes the fuselage to fly sideways producing lift toward the left in this case so you balance that force with right aileron to produce Lift Horizontal toward the right so there are no net forces. As the aircraft gets slower and slower, the fuselage force becomes less so you have to start reducing the bank angle till touchdown. Once on the ground you are now part of a different playing field (the ground) than the air and you will have to start increasing right aileron as you get slower since you are countering the other playing field, the airmass.

    • @niaceri1
      @niaceri1 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I totally agree. The concept of "yawing into the wind" when you are flying in the airmass is in error. The plane does not "know" that the airmass is moving (assuming it is in steady-stay and not gusting).

    • @juanfraile8439
      @juanfraile8439 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Exacto. El avión no funciona como veleta si no esta atado al piso por lo tanto no es natural que se oriente al viento mientras está en el aire. En el aire el avión no sabe de dónde sopla el viento.

    Nice one, don't forget kids by keeping the into wind flying contols....into wind while you taxy will enable you to taxy easily despite the strong wind. ....because if you don't then taxying becomes difficult as the wind tries to send the aircraft where it wants to.

  • @oldglory1944
    @oldglory1944 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Ailerons have 3 chores;
    1) make the bank to TURN the plane (99% of our flying)
    2) approaching the runway: makes the BANK that stops xwind drift.
    3) ON the runway: provides the ADVERSE YAW that aids rudder in directional control to brake speed.
    NOTE: The AILERONS bank, used to stop drift, is in the same direction on roll out, that provides the YAW that supplements the stalling rudder with directional control. Nice, huh ?

    Hi Cindy, great videos. There is no mention of using flaps in the cross wind landings, is it recommended to use at least 20 degrees?
    Would also love to see a video of how to pick up flight following at towered and non-towered airports. Thanks

    • @Alienfanatic
      @Alienfanatic 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Remember that flaps are primarily to allow you to descend at a steeper angle without increasing airspeed. If the XWind is steady and not gusty you can use as much or as little flaps as you prefer to help manage your airspeed and reduce the rollout (using the extra drag) as you like. On gusty days, though, I really avoid using more than 20 degrees (and usually none) because of the changing nature of lift as the gusts hit the flaps. It makes for a more unstable approach and you end up fighting the aircraft and making more frequent power changes. (Not to mention the typical effect of suddenly gaining and then losing lift in the flare, making for a hard landing.) So use flaps to manage your airspeed (as you also do with pitch) and work on your landings without flap for gusty days and you can make landings just as precise as with lots of flaps (albeit with a longer ground roll due to a higher ground speed on landing.)

    • @Alienfanatic
      @Alienfanatic 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Oh and all you need for flight following is the frequency of the local approach or ARTCC (center) that serves your area. You can find that in your chart supplement in the approach frequency or, if none are listed (meaning you probably don't have any IFR approaches into that airport) you can usually find it in the info from a nearby towered airport or on the sectional in a white box (in the case of an ARTCC.)
      At non-towered airports you shouldn't and probably can't pick up FF on the ground both because you'll struggle to reach them and because you really should remain on the field frequency to listen to traffic calls from other Aircraft. Just plan on switching as soon as you've exited the pattern. At towered airports you can request it from the tower or clearance delivery and they'll give arrange it with TRACON or the ARTCC, give you the departure frequency, and to start to receive services once tower haha you off to departure control.

    • @muhammadsteinberg
      @muhammadsteinberg 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Flaps are NOT your friend in crosswind landings. Try to use as little as possible and carry 70kts instead of 65kts if flying a 172. Basically 5kts over on any GA is a good rule. Any tower in your area can give you flight following. I don't think contacting an ARTCC or Approach is a good idea. Flight following request are not guaranteed for VFR pilots. It's on a workload basis. ARTCC's and Approach controls mainly handle IFR traffic. I've never contacted an ARTCC or Approach for that. Why would you get Flight following from approach? Doesn't make any sense, you're leaving. ARTCC's handle sectors of the country. If you're flying a 50nm cross country I can't see an ARTCC being bothered with you.
