[cruxader27]

dude can you teach me how to create waypoints when going to other airports for example on Garmin

[majfunkmeister]

that alarm for the altitude assigned indicator is awsome! is that special for g1000's? or is it just the plane?

Rule 197: If you can walk away with the wheels intact and the nav-bag in your hand, it ain't a rubbish landing.

Right hand circuit? Interesting. Great job flying. I am currently in the learning process for my private, and then onto my commercial. Great to see your video.

Thanks for commenting! :) During the final leg, with full flap out you want to be flying down at 70kts. Coming over the threshold, you want to be at 65kts. You then bleed off the power, and begin gently flaring the plane, as it begins to sink. The Cessna's don't have that same sort of cushioning that a Piper Warrior would have so you need to be quite firm with the flare.

Sorry for the novice question....

on the touch and go...were the flaps UP..

before rotate-take off ???

Why.? Flaps...ALWAYS???during takeoff/landing??

I was surprised. Thanks

Full flap (30 degrees) was used during the landing. After touchdown during a touch and go, the flap is put up because full flap can inhibit the climb out to some degree. Flap is only used on takeoff in a Cessna for a Short-Field Takeoff, and in that case only 10 degrees is used - and at 200', after a positive rate of climb is established the flap is then taken up.
