Cool video. I'm going up for my third flight lesson and I need to take off correctly. I let the nose yaw and bank to the left a little. I need to control that for a straight ahead take off.
I went on a $25 plane ride in Indiana. I was 15 years old at the time. Loved flight simulator and always flew the 172. The pilot showed me how to check for water in the fuel then I told him about the controls. I jumped in the right seat and he told me "Hey smart ass, you're in the wrong seat, you fly it. From start, taxi, takeoff to a power off crosswind landing. He signed my FSM manual with his name, plane and flight time. I have to do it again!
well if its true u can always get a legal sugery if the airport is ok with it...i forgot wat the sugery was called tho...but i know its not lasik eye surgery
cool plane. Im going to be trained to be an avionic technition for the U.S.A.F. and am going on my first flight in a cessna this january and your video is pumping me up!
im 13, and i know how to do basic vfr- a little ils approaches( thanks to flight simulator ) but do you think that they will give me student lessons? If not, do you think they would take me up just to show me ils's?
You can call them up for an Intro flight but they most likely wouldnt do any IFR flight. I'm 13, almost 14 and just started my flight training about a month ago, You can practically start at any age but you cant hold your liscience until 17 so you would end up paying a lot more money if you dont want to forget all the stuff you learned by the time your 17.
yeah i understand. i was just saying, In America the youngest you can be to fly any sort of thing is 14, and you can pilot gliders. Good luck too you! Have fun up there
actually its 16 and u need your private licence then u can get higher ranks on licences like to fly an airbus intl...and if u r 14 and looking forward to being a pilot i insist u get a flight simular at elctronic stores like best buy... if u want to see wat flight simulator x is then search it on youtube
I am 14...i have been practicing on a simulator for years now and I am taking my first flying lesson this monday but i turn 15 in November I'm sure you can start lessons at 14
it was an intro flight but i started lessons also I don't need my student pilot permit yet, i have to get my physical first though but i only need that before i solo at 16..correct me if im wrong
need to watch out on the flight sims. There fun and they can help with navigation and instrument but landing is way different then in real life then it is on a sim.
there called taxi lights, but they were prob at the parking at tht time or close to it. I think landing lights are just to help the people on the ground see the aircraft.
there different, in the cockpit you have the taxi and landing light switch, they control different lights. In the 172 they are right next to each other.

The place i work offers ground school lessons and a free flight if you're interested in signing up. I bet a school near you will do the same? If not, find a new pilot to take you up. If they charge you anything, it'll be for some of the fuel costs. By law, someone only carrying a PPL can only charge you a fraction of what it cost to fly. Besides that, they're so happy to get off the ground and share it with someone else, they'll probably take you along for free! I would.
can u plz tell me how much do u pay for the license
