Thanks for sharing brother. My examiner told me something years ago I never forgot, when he signed my ticket and handed it to me, before he let go of it he said "remember this, it's really a license to LEARN". I remembered, and videos like this add to our knowledge. Thanks again.
Did you fly the 170 with the old o-300 and the fixed? How much did this change the useful load? Wonder if the STOL changes would be worthwhile with the 145 hp motor? Fun vid, beautiful plane. Thanks for that
Have you tried the Point Roberts grass strip 1RL in NW Washington ? It is challenging because the tree line is quite high on approach to line up with the grass area. The take off is fairly easy, the take off runway is quite long .
That’s completely nerv racking! You have some guts, that’s fur sure 😅 Also, is that a lake emptying itself in that river, usually the rivers goes to the open water?
Great flying as always. You were really working the yoke hard on that one approach. Clearly when you are flying that slow, the ailerons don't have much authority. Great stuff and thanks again for sharing.
Does anyone have any idea of the outcome of having one of those runway rocks take a piece out of your propeller in the wilderness, just because you wanted to try out a wheel landing on a rock bed? No way out without a propeller. Don't feed the Grizzley Bears. No exceptions including your leg. Don't scream. Screaming only makes Grizzley Bears more hungry.
Hello, at what point you stop watching the airspeed indicator? or you just feel the airplane by listening to the engine? I fly a A32B and B1900D, i like your videos. regards from Perú
I have an angle of attack indicator, do not look at the airspeed indicator, short final is by feel though, I do look at the GPS ground speed so gives me an idea of how much energy I need to dissipate to be able to stop, I am from Peru gracias por ver mis videos, saludos
@@motoadveBackcountry182 Oh yeah the AoA indicator, thats awesome... you are in the very limit though, you got to be very sharp with the adjusts. Ive learned a lot from your videos. Saludos =) !! keep it up
Risk homeostasis -- that extra safety margin was used up flying riskier flights, so the overall safety was not improved. Not a criticism, just an observation.
This must be (or similar) what I am seeing and hearing! taking off from the airport a half mile from my house here in Virginia. Very steep climb-out and the engine snarls at take-off power setting. Very impressive.
