  • TGL show de bola!!!

  • Well done!

    and nice aircraft

  • I'm not really sure why people have to brag about the amount of instruction they receive prior to their solo. It makes absolutely no difference to the examiner when you take your practical test.

    Theoretically, you could get 28 hours of instruction, and then get the twelve solo hours two weeks before the practical test and it would make little difference.

    It just seems to me that someone with eight hours would, and was, kind of unprepared.

  • Did you use a simulator to practice your landings? I feel I am almost ready with 6hrs but I have like 200 landing on the simulator...

  • All that is needed to solo is a 3rd class medical, how many hours training is at the instructors discretion. You cannot have your checkride and carry passengers until you have 40 hrs flight time. I currently have 6.25 and my instructor is telling me I'm ready. I just need to get my medical done.

  • sorry, if u take faa regulations u will see how many hours u need. and also is illegal if the faa knows they will close the school. and with 6 hours of flying u are doing steep turns. if u learnd how to land on 6 hours u are superman

  • Dude your right, I'm not going through a school so I am under different FARs...

  • nossa ele fica bem instavel na final né?

  • this is what i am learning on and yea i have to do 20 hours with an instructor and 20 hours solo before im signed off

  • Thats beacause this aircraft shows airspeed in MPH not knots. Landing speed of 85 MPH is perfect.

  • What does he spin in the roof before landing? Trim or something??

  • Trim. The Cherokees have the trim on the roof. The flaps controls are a lever on the floor, like the e-brake in your car.

  • I was going to ask the same question. On my Cherokee 140, the trim is on the floor between the seats, behind the flaps. How many different models of 140 are there?

  • If you're doing your 'solo' who's in the plane filming it ;-))

  • looks to me like the camera's mounted...since it's not moving. : )

  • WAY too rough on the throttle man... Good thing you dont own that plane. Doubt it would ever make it to TBO with ppl flying it like that. Good landings, but you need to chill with the slapping the throttle and flaps.

  • cara...qual q esse aerodromo que voce tah pousando?

  • The carb heat is supposed to go to cold when your on final, just in case you have to go round. Or else you don't have the optimum rpm.

  • That's what I thought. Are you in NZ by any chance? They probably have no problems with carb heat due to temperature differnces...

  • You are partialy correct . According to the BIBLE (Pipers POH) carb heat is never called for unless iceing is suspected. i.e. rough engine or low rpm. This HABBIT came from cessna pilots who could not break the HABBIT after the transistion to Pipers. As stated in the BIBLE (Pipers POH) use caution at lower power (such as in the pattern or slow flight) when useing carb heat. If full throttle is needed sputter and full rpm delay could result. Power and rpm you might need to avoid a stall and crash

  • I soloed in a Warrior 151. I "dumped" the flaps like you do one time and got a colossal azz chewing. I was told that if my instructor ever heard the flap handle hit the floor again, I was done. : ) I don't know if it really hurts anything, but I stopped. I got reamed for jamming the throttle in, too. That old man sure would jump us for abusing his "babies" but we learned to NEVER be rough on them. : )

  • Nice job! I just did my solo in a PA-28-161 /G with 9 hours. I wish I could have had a camera mounted like this!

  • how do you mount your camera?

  • great landings man! But why would you keep your carb heat on for finals and only go cold after touchdown? I was thought to go hot on base and go cold on final...

  • I thought Pipers requirement for carb heat was only in viable moisture?

  • nahh, you always put it on when reducing the power below  ~70-80%

  • Yahh, If you read your POH piper does not call for carb heat unless suspected iceing has occured. Such as rmp loss or rough runnig engine. Your instructor must have a lot of time in Cessnas and is too lazy to break the habit. I would trust the POH before I trusted a $15.00 p/h instructor. If you need full throtle with carb heat on during approach carb heat can cause sputter and delay of full rpm (Says PIPER) seconds you might need to prevent a stall. I have 20+years Fly'n I always use the POH

  • hello and great touch and goes!  I have about 20 hours but I am still only 14 so i have ways to go. really great flying for only 8 hours

  • for 8 hours that is good flying

  • very good job dude

  • (for all Pipers of the PA-28 type the normal take-off and go around is without flaps)

  • interesting. I was always told to use two stages of flap, maybe its the runway length?

  • Hello,

    no... the normal procedures (at least for the PA-28 Warrior and Archer series) is: Normal take-off is without flaps. Short Field take-off ist with 25 degrees. But actually - other settings will work too. Since with planes of that category the difference between the stall speed with or without flaps is really marginal you should be able to take-off/land with any flap setting. I would not recommend a take-off with FULL flaps, but even that works, I tried it a couple of times.

  • Your clearly good at what you do, but isnt your throttle control a little to "harsh" when doing the go-around. And secondly... are you taking off with NO flap?

  • lol? when you doing touch and goes, there is no "harsh" is like preparing a long list for take off over and over...hes on the ground for like 2 seconds...

  • how many hours untill u can get your solo

  • Around 9hrs.

  • i can have above 7 hours and be over 16 and i can go solo. its 50 hours for private license and 200 for commercial

  • Actually its 40 hours for private pilot's license and the minimum age for solo in a powered aircraft is 16 years old.

  • good landings!

  • Very nice !! i fly an Archer manual flaps too, but I was wondering what you were spining on top.

  • Is the trim control...

  • haUAHuAHAUHAuahA nem esquenta veii e inveja....

  • Cara...você não pode ter um brevê. Se alguma autoridade ver este vídeo, seu brevê vai ser com certeza cassado.

  • Não o condeno pelo que diz, sei que vc é apenas um ignorante. Sinto por vc não saber o que é solar com 8 hrs de treinamento em uma escola americana.

  • look like a damned B25 pilot .....good video

  • Nice video. I like the throttle and manual flaps action. I'm looking to buy a first plane and a corporate pilot said a Cherokee 140 and a Garmin 496 (with XM weather) would be a great combination. Mostly fy solo, light load. You got me excited about the idea.

  • That was great the second landing/flare was nice!

  • SBMT ?

  • KBTF, Bountifull, utah , USA

  • isnt that a 180?

  • That one is a 140 w/ 160 engine. I made some mistakes but I just had 11 hrs training in my training corse.

    thanks for the post...

  • ahh the ctl column looks that of a 140. Cool though.

  • how can u tell the diffrence?

  • I'd have to say its a 1969+. I think in 67 or 68 they introduced the throttle/mixture quadrant instead of the traditional knobs. Also the plane is fitted with the "ramshead" yokes which is not present on the '69 that I fly (older models have the bowtie). The 140 is a great cruiser for 2 people, but you can generally forget about doing 3 plus baggage.

  • hey cheers for replyin, great video, its a buzz evry time i watch, throttle friction on - full power - Climb = GREAT :)

  • Very nice video. Thanks

  • Boa filmagem !

    Qual o aeroporto ?

    Onde você fixa a câmera ?

  • Fantastic video , good camera work.

  • Great Vid on T&G'S, ive flown the 14 series before and there extremely under powered comapared to the 161 or 181, 161 has to be my favorate, cheers.

  • I fly a PA-28-140 (N3969K) and I think they are powered fine. In fact, the Warrior (28-151) has the same power as the 140. The 140 has a 150HP engine. That is a fairly newer Cherokee 140 judging by the panel, the throttle, and the yoke. I am stuck with a 1968, lol, although I do like the yokes in the older ones better.
