14 year old flying a Cessna 172 (HD)

[marcsman07]

that is soooo cool, i would love to do that. what state did you fly in?

[phrozen17]

Oh that must be one of those new vertical propellers

[andy4b767]

why would u guys wanna start training when you're like 13 or 14?? Why not wait?

[itsmemorp]

Any tips anyone for when to start my training if I can only get my liscence when I'm 17 by the way I'm 14 now?

[tim78704]

Looked like a great landing. Stall warning a split second before touch down, perfect. :)

[tangodrink]

Im 15 im doing a vigilant glider solo flight on sunday my god im bloody scared..

[pdowty68]

Sorry I pressed enter by accident, I was saying nice to know I am not the only 14 year old student pilot! Get in touch with me please we can talk! I live and train on long island new york, nice touch and go!

[pdowty68]

Yes, in most small, unpressurized airplanes there is a window, or small, hand sized vent, also in most cesuras, there is vents on the top left and right of the windscreen, the right side with a built in thermometer for the outside air temperature. I am 14 and I am training in the 152 the 172 and the 182' 152 is my fav. Nice to know I am not the only 14. Yea

[haasyxavi]

What country is this in?

[MYASSYRIANPRIDE773]

do small planes like that have windows you can open while flying in mid air? outta curiosity

[getlow1985]

@MYASSYRIANPRIDE773 Yes.

[skrillexfan92]

@MYASSYRIANPRIDE773 you cant open windows in planes dumass youll get sucked out

[MYASSYRIANPRIDE773]

@skrillexfan92 sure thing dumBass , thats why someone who FLIES A PLANE already responded to me and said YES YOU CAN

fuck off

[mrmrkester]

You should be taking glider lessons instead

[gunnygundog]

How do stalls feel?

[tredub91]

is it hard being a pilot? i really want to be one!

[killerforlife100]

Remember to bring your hatchet

[spiker84]

@usernameVEVO yeah dude im a chief master sergeant its the greatest thing ever

[mikkelkrullamulla]

how old should you be to take lessons in the usa?

[AeroplaneCentral]

lol im doin the same--- in america are u allowed to solo at 14?

[The1911airsofter]

@AeroplaneCentral when your 16 you can solo and when your 17 you can get your lisence

[plane63]

Have you soloed yet!? Great job.

[TheDak17]

Dude you are a beast! Awesome flying!!

[nyk10000]

what "licencee" is required for this?

[discojockey007]

can i fly in13 years? i mean its awesome i didn´t know that you can land or actually fly the plane for a longer time!

[AeroplaneCentral]

@discojockey007 yes u can im doin it and i was 13 now im 14 but i started and did 8 lessons and i was 13

[djomercohen]

nice, but i would have done this when i was 7

[dfx961]

hey im 14 too and im in flight school flying DA20-C1's in northern jersey it seems you took this video a while ago how have you liked flight school? have you done your solo?

[sethch53]

I'm 16 and have already soloed so now I'm waiting for my 17th birthday to get my license. So all I can tell you is to stay determined when flying. You will have good days and bad days. Just like in everything else. Good luck

[Garthan742]

@applesweeter I have some questions for you too:

1)why do you keep posting this on all plane videos?

2)why dont you go and get a life?

[themusicmastera380]

I'm 10 and I fly those !!!?!

[tinyman12323]

@themusicmastera380 Dosent mean you know what your doing.... PS: Flight Simulator doesnt count. (And if your actually "fly those" tell me whats a pattern an S turn, and a squak code, dont look it up, just straight off your head)

[ethanissocool]

@tinyman12323 Hey if your a pilot can you tell me what my first plane should be ot how much flying lessons t

[tinyman12323]

@ethanissocool You should train in a cessna or a piper (witchever you get, i got the cessna) And flying lessons can be from 120 to 140$

[ethanissocool]

@tinyman12323 Each?

[tinyman12323]

@ethanissocool Sadly, yes.

[ethanissocool]

@tinyman12323 You have been very helpful I feel closer to the cockpit already!

[rcplanes1234]

or i should say are you 16 yet

[rcplanes1234]

did you solo?

[kon007nic]

hey guys i m 14 too i am wondering if am i allowed to have some flying lessons in the airport for this kind of airplane ( cessna) because we dont own an airplane . i mean perhaps your uncles has the plane and he gets you inside ..

[CA477544]

@kon007nic Most student pilots don't own their own aircraft, flying schools will rent their aircraft out to you.

[musicboygivesyouhope]

were are u flying in the video

[garand]

reminds me of my first landing I was about 15, came in hard on the main gear, I thought I smashed the tail of the plane into the ground! Keep up the lessons you'll be a great pilot!

[iApplePhil]

I'm also 14 and very jealous that you are able to do this. How much is flight school costing you?

[dfx961]

im 14 and im goin to start lessons in a week this makes me more than excited especially since you were in the pilot seat on your 2nd lesson

[TheBoeing144]

Not bad im 15 and started flying lessons today great experience i hope the same for u

[111im222]

hi im 10 and im from australia i fly a PA28 TXU its really fun i have have learnt climbing and decending, over the city orb and turning its awesome!

[thimmpy]

Hi, im swedish, at the touch and go i think i heard swedish voices, nice flying :-)

[Piano1515]

nice plane, yea im 14 to and fly a 172 its loads of fun

[GTAmyths94]

WTF 14 and 13 year olds doing the ppl-a? Well in the US almost everything is possible. Im doing the PPL-C. Gliding is more fun : P

[PilotGleb]

LOL! I never got into captain seat :(

[dublinmanc]

I just found out that you are in America...With so many young lads these days getting into all sorts of trouble I salute you - fair play to you & Greetings from Manchester, England (UK)

[Iceman5164]

Could anybody tell me the Limits to the 172 Aerobatic Capabilities? I've always wanted to ask the Pilot but it's been a while since I've gone Flying... I know you can do certain banks and pull back to get around 2 Gs or 3 and stalls but anything other than that?

[Italiandude96]

Great vid!!! I'm 13 now and I just did an intro flight today! How many lessons do you take per month?

[devildrummerjack]

@Italiandude96 I'm 13 too and want to have flying lessons. What did you have to do on your first lesson? 

[Italiandude96]

@devildrummerjack Basically I had about an hour of groun training, and then we went to make sure theplane was ok, and start it. (it takes about 15-30 minutes to inspect and turn it on safely). Then, I got to fly around for an hour. Not many thngs go on ecxept turns and descents and ascents. Hope tha helps! :)

[crapper1]

dont sweat planting it firmly at least u didnt break it

u will learn to feel the plane better as u fly more and know how it should feel the more u do it

[Pilingolandia]

u are a rich boy aren't you?

[MrNerd314159]

I landed like that on my third too, but that's because I flared to early, But my second landing was perfect. and im 13

[jacob6102]

Sweet!! I am also 15 and am getting my ppl.. Are u planning on going the commercial route?

[cisco2992]

Cool vid man. Don't worry on the landing man I've done it so has many lol. Good luck and god speed. Fellow Aviator!

[Millard97]

Good flying Man Little bit touchy on the landing .... i am in the canadian airforce and i was taking lessons since i was your age keep it up !

[kilvo777]

Very impressive to be able to fly so well at such a young age. You will not be able to 'grease' them all on but if you can fly to a landing at the correct speed, correct spot and on the centerline it's perfect. No doubt you are headed for a career in the airlines so best of luck.

[ILoveAirsoft247]

Umm...last time I checked you had to be 16 to fly? But ok lol

[Troylling]

@ILoveAirsoft247 You can start flying at 12 years of age. You must be 16 to apply for a private pilots license.

Can you please get your facts right before doubting someone?

[youngestpilotinGa]

@Troylling wrong again you can start flight training at any age the flight school is willing to accept ( 9 for me) you must be 16 to solo and 17 to take the FAA written for your PPL (not to mention all the oral, and check-rides)

can you please get your facts right before correcting someone

[youngestpilotinGa]

big deal iv been flying since i was 9

[mikhailps2]

i can't wait to start flying its going to be so exciting for me

[KOSUB11]

I wish i could get the same opportunities as you. I have about the same FSX experience as you, and have flown a super cub and a stearman but I can't convince my parents to buy flying lessons. How did you start?

[KKOPPI]

well I can fly this in flight simulator but in real life...

[mercedesbenz0415]

bad landing, u cant put it down right after the numbers, thats when u should be at like 50 feet and u pull ur power out cause u made the runway, then u let it soar until the thresh hold and put it down. If you ever fly into LAX or any other big airport, they will never let you land there again, its for EMERGENCIES only, btw, iam 16 and fly a C206

[PlaneHawk42]

Im twelve Oh Snap! with 92 Hours!

[drumaboy013]

I want to do that so bad!!!

[gruntkid10]

how old do you have to be to get lessons

[0MUSEMUSE0]

@gruntkid10 any age.

[1Nekit1]

!!!PEOPLE!!!!

Type: FSX - It Will Help To Learn A Lot =)... seriously!

[1Nekit1]

@kanicha617 LOL, FTW???!!!

Tips of Beachcraft are pretty easy to control, but they are not cheap... =(

[Drewkuskilz]

not that amazing, im 15 and have known to fly since 10, not just throttle, but full gears.

[phoshizzo]

dang, nice....im turning 15 in 2 days. so i should be able to sign up for lessons

[INFORISISY]

damn you D:<

i only get to fly 152's

btw im younger than you :o

[Twoangrymen]

Nice Landing! I'm in a C152 and those crosswinds tend to kick it around a little bit.

[YourFriendlyMe]

lol im goin in the airforce and im starting to get flying lessons

[charlesthepilot]

for some yes, like a 172 is very similar to a 152 or im told even to a cherokee. But flying a 172 probably wouldnt be anything like flying a pitts or a number of other aircraft.

[charlesthepilot]

nice work, too bad your not in Canada lol we solo at 14 here. What year was the 172 you were flying?

[vipor3D]

yea alot of them do

[parkflyer23]

nice bud where is this? i wanna become a private pilot and im about to start my aviation school.how did you fly at this age ? its nice and nice graphics! 10/10

[Ignantredneck]

Nice! Keep taking lessons and get certified!

[GIJOE221294]

Nice one! Im thinking of having flying lessons, but Im curiouse as to if after the intoductory lesson, more lessons cover everything or are they all the same?

[mayokiconner]

@GIJOE221294 Oh of course they're different, you'll do traffic patterns some lessons, ground ops others, stalls, special maneuvers, and eventually solo and do cross-countries.

[GIJOE221294]

Great! Im going to start mine in the spring, cause of the weather in England. Thanks!

[aolambros]

@mayokiconner

You're not actually logging any hours yet, right? I am 14 too

[ljackso]

Lucky guy. When I was 14 I would watch the Ag Pilots and pretend I was one of them. It was many many years before I got to actually fly! Good luck and Happy Flying!

[szaychuk]

Awesome video, guy, and some nice flying. I'm currently working on my PPL in Canada @ 27, but wish I was flying at 14. Cheers. :)

[eemuska]

GREAT VIDEO YOU ARE GOOD PILOT ! :D

[mayokiconner]

thanks!

[Nnexxxx]

Ouch on the landing....

[mayokiconner]

Yeah. he recorded one, and this was my worst landing to date lol

[Nnexxxx]

I had one like that yesterday when the sun was right in my eyes so it was difficult to tell how far I was from the runway...So I pretty much skimmed half the runway and flopped at the end of it lol

[bae215]

unless it was really windy, land the other way. Better to be safe.. the controller will understand that!

[jpwsml]

@Nnexxxx Not really that bad, cameras are hard to hold steady during landings, the only thing I'd say is that it was a little off centerline. I've done much worse. :)

[Nnexxxx]

@jpwsml

Yeah you're right it was a pretty good landing, I didn't really think before I posted my last comment

[CaptainTred]

I landed a BeechCraft Baron 58 when I was 11! :D

[lilmb94]

Lucky.

Not everyone has a chance like that.

[chris5812341234]

ok thanks man

[chris5812341234]

im also turning 14 and getting indroductory flight for my day any tips

[mayokiconner]

Fly with your fingertips, no-death gripping haha. And get the plane to the attitude you want with the yoke before trimming. I was bad about the second one.

[thepigboystudios]

ha! I love that game.

[thepigboystudios]

hey I'm turning 14 and im getting an introductory flight for my B-day got any tips?

[mayokiconner]

Play flight simulator, haha. Seriously. It'll get you familiar with operations.

[NIGHTEHAWK]

good job! im 13 now and have beem flying all my life! good job and keep up the work man!

[o0Rishay0o]

Was an instructor in there with you?

[mayokiconner]

Of course, he was the one recording me with the camera.

[o0Rishay0o]

Haha, Okay, Just making Sure......

I'm also 14, and am taking lessons... How many hours do you have?

[mayokiconner]

Well I just turned 15. But I only have like 5 hours because I haven't had a lesson since July. My instructor has been out flying all over the place and I have been gone a lot too. I am looking forward to getting back up in the air soon.

[bobistheman02]

im 14 and have about 6 hours my 3rd landing wasn't much better good luck cross country is the best part

[jmanbubba11]

wow awesome i am about to fly or ride in a helicopter whos dad dropped him off at east ridge high his first day of school it wuz sick :D

[KnightandRaena]

NIce :) cool so like how much was is in total??

[mayokiconner]

170 ish per lesson

[wowky07]

Im also 14 doing it at Retford Gamston UK. Your so lucky mayte im flying an old 60's Cessna 152. Ahh well it does the job gets me hours! Good look gettin your hours and PPL!

[TaylorDaPilot]

Im 14 and I have flying lessons too.

£125 ish

If you live near southend airport

go there

FLying Is The Best :)

[dondycluck]

how u got a flight lesson and how much it cost u,i really want to know

[mayokiconner]

find a flight school in your area and ask for prices right now its like 120$ an hour with fuel to rent a cessna 172 and like $80 for a warrior, so flying for like 1.2 hours and .5 hours of ground school all with instruction is like 180$. Im probably getting sponsored into the navy flying club though so i'll be able to rent planes for half the price.

[dondycluck]

OK so ask them for flight lessons and and how much it cost?

[mayokiconner]

like 170ish a lesson for an hour of flight and .5 hours of ground school but it differs from schools

[dondycluck]

ohh..thx

[redddawg14]

Cool video! Where do you do your flying?

[mayokiconner]

Peter Prince airport in milton, near Pensacola, FL

[redddawg14]

Sweet! Keep up the good work!

[mayokiconner]

thanks!

[BlueandGreenStudios]

Damn...I thought it was illegal to fly at 14. But you're good!

[mayokiconner]

Thanks, actually as long as I'm with an instructor I can fly to gain the proper amount of hours so as soon as I turn 16 I can solo, then I can get my private pilot at 17.

[mantech2]

Thats really useful, thanks!

[BlueandGreenStudios]

I didn't know aobut that rule. Really good flying.

[Ratchet905]

lucky you... nice flying

[mayokiconner]

Thanks.... I might be able to get on today, ive been incredibly busy

[AnthraxBE]

Come fly with me come fly fly, let's fly away (=
