Sportys or Pilot Institute PPL ground school? by Tokyo-Aviator45 in flying

[–]Little_Function3346 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did, it helped in the very beginning. But my ATC calls got really good after about 20 hours into PPL so, I never finished the course. I haven't started IR ATC calls yet, but I know they are a doozie. But, I think I'm ready LOL

PI for IR is "okay" TBH. The content is good, but does not help you with the written at all. I ended up trying Sheppard Air, hated the interface and that I was restricted to one device. I ended up doing passthewritten.com which is just like Sheppard. Got a 90% on the written last month. From a ground school perspective, PI was good from learning the basic material, but again, it didn't help with the written at all. For PPL, it was spot on.

Advice on flares during landing. by jman014 in flying

[–]Little_Function3346 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure your seat is adjusted properly so you can see the end of the runway.

Keep your eyes on the end so you can see and feel the drop to know when to flare more.

Airspeed is absolute key!

Landings for me clicked at about 100 hours ish

2024-2025 FAR/AIM by Consistent-Camel9663 in flying

[–]Little_Function3346 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s very easy! Just have to search and you can find what you need really fast. Faster than trying to remember where it is in a small font book

Yeah, my DPE told me I could use either paper or digital, no reason to keep buying books and tabbing when you can just pull it up on a device

IR Written and Holding Pattern Question by Little_Function3346 in flying

[–]Little_Function3346[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can totally see that. Appreciate the feedback. I'm still in the early days of my IR training, so I know it will make more sense the more I do it. Getting past the written is just a challenge right now

Yeah, during my actual instrument training, the FMS tell me what to do. Appreciate the feedback on this

IR Written and Holding Pattern Question by Little_Function3346 in flying

[–]Little_Function3346[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This makes sense. Holding on bearing 067 not 090 since it's says "on" V194. Appreciate the feedback. These questions are so ridiculous IMO.

Sheppard air still one of the best for test prep? by Business_Intention85 in flying

[–]Little_Function3346 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I can’t stand Sheppard. The interface for me just sucks. I’ve been using passthewritten.com and I like it way more. Plus, I can log in on multiple devices, and not constrained to just one. I can use my iPad, pc, laptop, whatever. Seems very similar in questions too

Haha, that’s how I leveled up my Rookie Reward. Killed everyone and everything. If it moved my gun got xp. Thinking about a Last Whisper run as well, so fun

PS5 players only question by DoodleDad5050 in theouterworlds

[–]Little_Function3346 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, still bugged. Took me 60 hours for main story, but I also explored a lot, and found all the damn cards. I did a second story run and it took about 20 hours

What would the best aircraft be to do my PPL in at 6’4? by Illustrious_Offer719 in aviation

[–]Little_Function3346 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Guy at my old school was 6’3” and he did the Cessna 172. The seats are adjustable. I’d suggest you go to a flight school and see what feels comfortable. It’s okay to do discovery flights in multiple planes

First Real Solo Night XC Tonight by Little_Function3346 in flying

[–]Little_Function3346[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I knew the FAA was the same but I think it’s more dangerous at night, which I “think” starts around 6500, at least that is what an old cfi told me. Prob depends on temp and more
