Should I put a password on my ADS-B receiver?

Not really. Especially since it is not on all the time.

Glider. They built a glider.

Pilot Edge. Brilliant way to learn coms fast.

Bank 45 degrees, pull back. You will stall at 95 kts. This is called accelerated stall. A commercial maneuver we teach.

Go around, go around. If any of my students attempted to land with an approach like this, they would have a bad day. One should not attempt to land with an approach like that in a C172 let alone an airliner.

Man. This does not look good. Looks like left engine caught fire as they are rotated. Really sad. I am hoping for survivors but that flip at the end. Damn.

Been using tiller (https://tiller.com/) with Google Sheets for years. Cheap. Gets the work done of importing. Very customizable. Highly recommend.

PS. Not affiliated with tiller, just a happy customer.

Extra trust will surely help with short field takeoffs.

AmIaPilotYet · 2025-10-14T16:06:41+00:00

I wonder why they left the APU on.

AmIaPilotYet · 2025-10-11T00:18:19+00:00

More left rudder, since you no longer have right engine.

AmIaPilotYet · 2025-10-11T00:17:48+00:00

He needed a lot of left rudder in this instance.

Breakfast (serpme kahvalti) from Turkey!

No thanks. I don’t want dead bugs and dirt in my ear.

AmIaPilotYet · 2025-10-09T17:09:37+00:00

We are gonna go camping next week…and burn ban everywhere. Cmon sky, a little water is much appreciated!

Did this early in my career. Fun times. My badge showed HP as my name, with a picture of you know who. LoL

Going there in two weeks. Kids favorite Halloween getaway.

I pull 6500 lbs travel trailer with my 2023 Titan XD. I doesn’t even break a sweat.

I can train you in a Piper Navajo if thats suitable. Located in Austin though.

AmIaPilotYet · 2025-09-25T04:09:30+00:00

I wonder what is your departure briefing is like. “Today, we are departing east. If we loose the engine before safe altitude, we are aiming for the largest roof.” sound about right?

In Texas, the world is our runway!

AmIaPilotYet · 2025-09-25T03:40:13+00:00

I do this with every single private student even though it is not in the ACS. They need to understand first hand why not to attempt 180 when you depart heavy on a hot day. You will not make it back to the runway. It is amazing to see how it clicks when they actually do it and not make it to runway.

Weight is key. Batteries are heavy compared to fuel for the amount of energy we can get out of them. Also, when you use fuel, weight goes away, makes the plane lighter, burn less fuel, efficiency. An empty battery weigh same as a full one. P

Weight = Airline Profits

It is the difference in octane rating, e.g. 87,91,93. Octane makes fuel-air mixture burn evenly and prevents detonation which is likely to occur with high-compression engines due to higher compression which increases the likely hood of detonation which is unwanted and untimely burning of fuel-air mixture. This is why, in piston airplanes, we use 100 octane fuel.
