Cessna 172 landing at CYVO

[TheHDAviation]

Very nice video, would love to make a trip to Quebec some day to do some flying! 

[andreg00]

@TheHDAviation Anytime ! We'll fly my DA20.

[aircraftfreak737]

buy.... not b



[aircraftfreak737]

yah thanks that really helps! what do you mean chat through msn?... And I actually take lessons in a 150... and occasionally a 152 when the 150 is being maintanenced... if i had to choose to b a 150 or 152 i would definetly choose the 152 the performance is amazing compared to the 150... 20 more hoursepower makes a big differance!

[aircraftfreak737]

I HAVE A QUESTION! PLEASE RESPOND! I have about 30 hours and am soon taking my checkride.... well when im old enough... im only just 15.... but anyway... I was wondering if you could give me your opinion on wheather my family should invest in a plane, or just to rent until i really need my own aircraft. My dad and uncle are going to combine there money and hopefully purchase a 1972 cessna 172 that were looking at at my local airport. Whats your opinion? Should I just keep renting? Thanks! (:

[andreg00]

@aircraftfreak737 When you say " rent until i really need my own aircraft " what does this exactly means ? Are you going for your commercial licence ? I would recommend a Cessna 150 rather than a 172 for a few reasons: Purchase cost, insurance cost, fuel consumption, parts availability etc... You will find tons of 150s for sale really cheap on the web. I owned 150 for 5 years and I really enjoyed it. If you would like to talk more about this we could chat through MSN.

[117nathanmyers]

@aircraftfreak737 Wow... you are so lucky. I have to buy my own and I am only 17. I need a better job just to keep renting let alone get an actually aircraft. But yea... Personally I would like the 150 or 152 because I live in colorado and the service ceiling is 500 ft more then the 172 which would actually help a lot and it would have similar range with long-range tanks. that is my 10 cents. And MSN is like Skype and yahoo messenger.

[737FSPilot]

That was an awesome landing. Bonjour from Montreal :0

[mccaptseo]

I'm a student pilot. This is very helpful to understand good round-out and flare.

Thank you very much.

[casinosquare1]

Yep, that was a spot on landing...great!

[2drewbaker]

I once landed a 172 and my earphones came off my head..on touchdown.... My instuctor said, "when you stall at a landing, you have landed".

[emp29]

that didn't look like a 172 approach, it was more like that of an airline. Great landing!

[michaelmanfilms]

great landing. Cessna 172 is a great plane.

[XxFoggyMountainxX]

That was so epic...

[shadows360]

Nice landing !!!

[ahpuesbru]

beautiful landing

[youronlysolution]

Beautiful.

[combarbala]

wowww...excellent !!!

[YeagerP51]

Unless I'm reading things wrong, speed was good but I did'nt see the nose get lowered after touchdown. Was that a 3 point landing. That's not a good habit with a tricycle. I've seen worse landings and that was smooth but I'd stay away from 3 pointers. No disrespect intended.

[fortress1133]

That... was beautiful! The stall siren goes off just before you touch, but only for a second. Just the way you want it.

[Criscocheeseman200]

Brilliant landing! I love the feeling when you nail that perfect flare and get a smooth touchdown! :D

[outdoorsintexas]

Nice video. You should visit the Cessna 172 Club and Forum. It's free and I think you'd like it. cessna172forum dot you-know-what. :)

[antonioair1000]

Also, iv seen landings where the aircraft glides above the runway for a while before the touch down. Is that a bad thing?

[andreg00]

@antonioair1000 no it's not a bad thing at all, it's a challenge. I do it often.

[64wing]

@andreg00 btw just out of curiosity, Have you ever landed on a runway that had snow drifts on it? We do it all the time in Michigan, just wondering what kinds of winter fun you have at your location lol! Happy flying man!

[andreg00]

@64wing yes I often land on runways with snow drifts on them. We have loooong winters with plenty of snow ! I am located in Quebec Canada

[64wing]

@andreg00 Ah yes, then you know exactly what I mean! I fly out of N98 Boyne City Municipal. If you find it on a sectional you can see that it is right on lake Charlevoix...Old Man Winter isn't very kind most years

[64wing]

@antonioair1000 Most of the time it is because the pilot carried additional airspeed into the flare. This is often unintentional.

[CA477544]

@antonioair1000 It depends, if the plane is ballooning because of an aggressive flare it's bad, but if it's just hovering and being flared slowly it makes the landing smoother and is good.

[antonioair1000]

perfect landing dude

[MerkabaStar]

wow...way to grease it in!

[imixatrixx]

sweet

[MrMimojr]

stall

[razu2444]

my landing feels like a crash? Help me!

[BigJonBone]

@razu2444 You just have to flair at the right time. If you flair too late, then you will land nose wheel first or three-point it. If you flair too early then you kind of just fall to the runway. It's a matter that "sweet spot". I used to flair too late, then there would be an instant I thought to myself "this is going to be bad" then BAM! I fell to the runway.

Good luck with impoving your landings!

[5StarDirector]

I love the sound the tires make after touchdown as you coast to a stop.

[4584627]

if it s an approach with flaps the speed should be between 55 and 65 knots, but if it s without flaps the speed should be between 60 and 70.

[TheFsReview]

really nice landing :D



[andrewbridget]

ooh, greased it on...really well done.

[TheEndlessNote]

sweet !

[tsbrownie]

Very nice, just a dash of stall horn at touch down!

[5StarDirector]

@tsbrownie Gotta love a little horn before ground

[Physicspilot]

Nicely done!

[r4microds]

AWESOME!

[MrPSYchotrop]

Excellent landing - a respected pilot!

[sandman19681012]

Great video.

[tagtraeumerL96A1]

sexy :)

[jacob9870]

I'm jealous.. I wanna land on a runway surrounded by snow!

so pretty haha

[airmotojh]

that was smooth, greased er. I like winter flyin smooth and fast. plane performs great.

[oranaishalim]

app speed is between 75&85 kt

[colty77]

Coming down through some cold thick air..

[theoneandonly690]

wish i had enough money to do pilots lessons :( and buy a small plane

[vivele77]

1:08

Stall alarm !

[tsbrownie]

Very nice.

[AeroWarehousedotcom]

Great landing! Check out AeroWarehouse for pilot supplies!

[campcookbook]

great!

[foopy6]

go reggie.

[sk8drumdie0116]

Smooth landing, just looked a bit high on approach. No big of course with such a long runway :] Great job.

[TmT911]

smooth landing.. good job bro ):

[pkoppes777]

i almost couldnt tell u landed nice job

[mextm]

Stall Warning on Landing -> not perfect

[dearthpanda]

@mextm That is completely false.

[harrydunn1]

Excellent landing.

[pichoharispe]

Great!!!

[CaptBesweri]

Thx wanted to confirm as yesterday instructor told me to keep 60kts all through final leg and 55kts after crossing the threshold then allow speed to bleed off,all along had been approaching at 65kts and consequently abit of floating during the flare

[CaptBesweri]

Well done what was the approach speed

[andreg00]

@CaptBesweri

The approach speed is between 60 and 70 kts

[vamp366]

@andreg00 Yeah really nicely done, was it full flaps config?

[andreg00]

@vamp366 Yes full flaps

[CA477544]

@CaptBesweri In a cessna 172 the approach speed varies depending on flap settings, flaps up is 70 knots, 20 degrees of flaps is 65 knots, and 30 to 40 degrees of flaps is 60 knots.

[PooleysFlightEquip]

Great video 5***** all the way

[shaneboulds]

i had a good one like that the other day. lol then the next one i kangeroo hopped lol

[coxairman]

great landing! it must have been such a nice day for flying!

[fabrisko93]

why did the stall warning rang????

[eemuska]

Very Good Landing

[summy2]

this game is perfect what kind of VGA ?

[THExGOODxLIFE307]

@summy2 game?

[AndyEmory09]

that was sweet! What textbook did you copy that from?? >)

[prashd77]

perfect landing!

[meetyouthere]

you greased that landing! nice... thanks for posting!

[hisolutionsllc]

Wow! Perfect landing!

[kjp45]

@hisolutionsllc 3' left of centerline ain't perfect homie. ps. this is some damn sort o' boring ass honkey cessna driver bullshit.

[hisolutionsllc]

@kjp45 Dude, the guy made a smooth, precision landing, in my book. He was able to hug the centerline pretty good. Do you think you could do better?

[kjp45]

@hisolutionsllc No, in fact I know I can't even come as close to doing as good of landing as the one demonstrated here. However, I also know that my level or perfomance is not the benchmark of quality and is therefore irrelevant. This only serves to greater validate any aforementioned criticism. This is a shame though - my performance should be the the standard by which one is judged- that would be damn cool! looking back maybe I was a little rough. sorry about that!

[pinkwontons]

perfect,,,,,,,,,like all of mine

[taipohh]

0:55

how fast are you supposed to go in that part of landing..with a same sized airplane..

[andreg00]

Approach at 70kts, td at 60

[danetrain0101]

@andreg00 You don't want to touch down at 60. Check your IAC next time and you will be surprised that you touch down closer to 35. That is, if you are performing a full stall landing.

[MrPilot1966]

We wish all of our landing were like that don't we ?

[youngestpilotinGa]

@MrPilot1966 i must admit i do HAHA lol

[CaptBesweri]

Great landing

[loganjames94]

nice landing

[policecrownvictoria]

wow great landing :) you hear the chicke at the landing? lol

the stall warning sounds like a chicken lol

the more you stall the more pissed off the chicken gets

[bebajoro77]

Smooth as silk, right on the stall warner. Well done Reginald!

[TheLightningII]

That was the smoothest landing I've seen in a long time.

[Valybe]

A beautiful landing!

[miguelsaez340]

that was impresively beautiful

[85iceman]

Ahhh. the sweet sound of stall horn followed immediately by gentle thud of the tires....great landing!

[andreg00]

THis noise is the stall warning

[demonicowl]

@andreg00 yeah, i'd have to agree with that mate. He did stall it briefly and a full flap stall would get a wing drop, which would be bad during landing. Regardless, it was a pretty good touchdown from your mate.

[samraarvin]

@demonicowl I had started my training and this is what my school is teaching me. You have to hold the plane in the air until it stalls to the ground. Moreover, Stall horn come 5 to 7 knots before stall. That is one perfect landing. If he would have touched down with that stall horn, that would be a perfect landing.

[wettfeat]

@andreg00 Arent you supposed to try to keep the plane right above the runway until it stalls like that?

[VenScripter]

what was that farting noise at the end?

[jpitard]

stall warning

[virsunen2]

excellent landing! :D

[andreg00]

Winter is back I will shoot some more videos

[chestateegold]

that was a great landing! wonderful smooth!

[josole3]

He's actually right, CBs found more often in england, making flying more challenging, so PIPE DOWN

[biggestMetallicAfan]

Nice, perfect 5 landing.

 Yeah back when i was learning to land, i had lots of trouble the first time holding the nose up until the plane stops flying when landing.

[sgtbarone]

perfect landing

[737747757767777787]

wow, nothing less than great landing

[januitmonnickendam]

That was really smooth!...

[DerPilotMann]

Nice landing! I finally got to fly today. Went up in a 172M and flew around for about a half an hour. I did great and it felt very natural! I'm excited to start my lessons soon!

[erich1799]

Thats a "By the Book" landing men those make me feel great, nice job,

[TnG1200]

Nice landing!!!

[tnobe3]

You landed on the ground??? I thought you were still flying at the end. Nice job!

[schooder]

I love to get high nice landing

[JonnyTommyGuns]

im hopefully gettin a cessna 172 from the era.. still looking around $35,000

[unkowndrunkenfrankli]

awesome landing

[flyboy8492]

do 172's have any commecial value other than charters and flight schools?

[Powertampa]

one word: toohigh

[TheBasketball5135]

not really

[trooper744]

wtf are you talking about, rpm sounded fine, glide scope was perfect, so was airspeed, flare commenced just after the numbers and right on centre line... if anybody is too high its you buddy...

[drummerkid69]

definatley not too high at all. That was a perfect landing with the right glideslope

[joedaviesuk1]

it's not an ils so dont call it a glideslope.

[drummerkid69]

yeah guess ur right.

[biggestMetallicAfan]

WHAT???

It's is still always a glide slope, ILS or not.

[joedaviesuk1]

must be an american thing then because ive never heard the terminology glide slope in vfr.

[biggestMetallicAfan]

Well a lot of things in flying are different in the US from other country's.

[joedaviesuk1]

fair enough then :)

[joedaviesuk1]

yer I agree the pilots in england dont fall asleep in the cockpit.

[biggestMetallicAfan]

Well even tho i have only known about the pilots going to Hawaii that did that. Pilots are just the same in England, they can just as easily fall asleep to.

[joedaviesuk1]

Yes but the weather is much worse than america, that makes us better pilots, and that is fact.

[milolouis]

not just the weather there is almost no uncontrolled airspace and insane amounts of traffic at all times. i learnt in florida and now fly in england.

[kjp45]

@joedaviesuk1 They can't. They're haunted by mental images of British women.

[kjp45]

@joedaviesuk1 They can't. They're haunted by mental images of British women.

[joedaviesuk1]

@kjp45 your not making any sense, geg out.

[trooper744]

Glidescope graph intuatively shows both distance and descent progress to the runway touchdown ... thus regardless a glidepath or glidescope can be used in VFR teminology..

[agentfazexx]

Wow, you're stupid. First, "too high" is two words. Secondly, that was a "by the book" landing.

[SoCalFlya]

That is so beautiful!

[gluepilot]

Excellent landing!

[goofygoat2009]

hmm, ok. i agree on the pipers..they too are not trustworthy.

[goofygoat2009]

welll...you just proved my point!

[goofygoat2009]

I still don't agree. The fact that almost all small plane crashes are in a Cessna is indicative to the plane itself. Sure, I agree that they may be due to pilot error but the kind of plane you're flying DOES make a difference. Windshear alone can make you lose total control of a Cessna.

[alamoman444]

Small Cessna's are what most hobby pilots have, and of course there are going to be more crashes, Recently a cessna trainer clipped a twin enigine beachcraft near LAX, no plane is completly safe like the popular f-22, one crahed in the desert last month!

[jsstechclub]

windshear can also make a piper or a luscombe lose control to; all private aircraft have incredibly high standards and it is generally pilot error that brings them down. and with many more cessnas built, it is more likely that more cessnas will be in accidents. go to the faa's accident and incident page and their is no dominant type of plane that crashes more. and who doesn't like the 150? best aircraft ever.

[Transavia737800]

No that's the 172!!!

[acsmashing]

what speed does everybody fly(typical speed) final approach on with a 172? i fly anywhere between 60-65.

[gluepilot]

Downwind to base 75 knots. Base to final, slow to 65. Final over the numbers 60 - 55, flare 50. Slow in ground effect and touch down just above stall. Stall horn should be on.

How's that? From memory. I am normally a bit higher than those though. Especially at touch down. I will normall hear the horn just before touch down if at all.

[maskedhedgehog]

my instructor used to say stick in the guts ... you flare the plane until it won't fly anymore and it settles down on the runway ... no stall horn, not a good landing

[Transavia737800]

Me to, when I'm underneath the glideslope I have to give more power so then it sometimes is around 70

[bf2fsxcod4412]

Winter flying, perfect conditions= perfect landing

good job!

[goofygoat2009]

wow he is brave..i don't trust cessna single engine planes..too susceptible to crashes. when there's a small plane crash in the news, it's always a cessna!

[186771054]

No way ;) Mostly experimentals and UL I see on the news here in Sweden. I feel more safe flying in an old trust worthy Cessna 172 :)

[acsmashing]

cessnas are one of the most trustworthy aircraft produced. all the crashes you have ever heard of with a cessna are most likely due to pilot error.

[joedaviesuk1]

I think you will find that millions of cessnas are flown everyday compared to other companys like piper. But I often see much more piper crashes than cessnas. I have clocked 20 hours in a cessna 152 and there brilliant able to withstand most things that other light aircraft can't and I think you will find that most SEP plane crashes are NOT reported in the news.

[joeymuffarco69]

its not the airplanes, its pilot error most of the time. and u see cessnas more than anything else cuz cessnas make up a huuuge majority of general aviation.

[mauricioquintanilla]

Nice landing.. perfect view, greetings from Mexico

[reeceturbin]

Ive never flown in the snow. Does carb heat stay on the whole flight?

[andreg00]

No the carb heat operation does not differ from summer operation. The important parameter is moisture, due point which is in fact dryer during winter time.

[youtrein]

Very good !

[oledoledoffen98]

nice landing!!

[liftertwo]

looked like you were a little high.

[Ltfredy]

Where was that?

[andreg00]

Val-d'Or, Quebec, CANADA

CYVO

[phillipislbj]

perfection.
