I just passed my FAA written with a 95% and didn’t use any online ground school…except your free videos lol no joke . Just this and practice tests over and over . Love your videos !!

@@trist7563 early on just the FAA practice questions and the kings free sample questions. Then when it was a couple weeks out from my exam I used the ASA app to get more serious as I was told they have up to date samples

@@trist7563 I got the same score and used Sporty's. The questions are not 100% the same but if you are consistently getting a 90+% on the practice exams and understand the material you'll get a decent score on the exam.

Hey Josh! Thank you so much for making these high quality and comprehensive ground school videos. I passed my private checkride a couple months ago and your channel basically got me through it. The way you explain content just clicks with me. I felt more than prepared for my oral and owe you a massive thanks! When is the instrument ground series coming?? 😂 Take care, you’re the man!

Also the new lighting for bigger airports that are basically stop signs controlled by the tower are a vast improvement in visibility.

What the FAA needs to do is color parallel runways differently. This would avoid many errors. Can hold for associated taxiways as well.

@FreePilotTraining Месяц назад

That’d be cool. You could have a runway 36 green and a 36 orange

@PghGameFix Месяц назад

As always... a great vid, and even for experienced pilots... it's a good refresher. FYI... the airport I normally fly from has a closed runway, but they turned it into a big taxiway. If you look at KJST, it's now taxiway G.

@larrya7822 Месяц назад

Turn right for 18 ? If I taxi to the end of the runway and turn around to take off, I'll have the runway markings 36 under me. Doesn't that mean I'm taking off in the 360 heading ? Shouldn't I have 18 underneath me ? Which means I would have to turn left instead ?

@FreePilotTraining Месяц назад

Ideally, you never want to have runway behind you on a takeoff, BUT the point of this is to determine which runway is left and which in is right. You can still see this sign when there is 8,000 feet left on 18. In this case, that won’t matter too much in a Cessna 172

@kombolasha 25 дней назад

Could have phrased it better, but he meant you’d be taking off to the right; meaning “facing” that direction. If you were given an intersection take off, you’d turn right and go. If you wanted a full-length departure, you’d turn left, taxi to the threshold, u-turn, then take off with 18 underneath you.

@FreePilotTraining Месяц назад

Thanks! I’m really not the best person to ask on that. Redbirds are very popular but they’re also very pricey

@mhilderbrand7693 Месяц назад

Just the other day I cleared the runway and waited an excessive amount of time for tower. I finally just switched to ground for taxi instructions. Should I have just contacted/stayed with tower instead? Thanks for the videos!

@FreePilotTraining Месяц назад

In that case: I would have “pimped” the tower. I would make a call similar to what you would to ground. “Tower, N3148x clear at Delta.” At that point, they’ll either switch you, OR they’ll give you the taxi clearance. Often, they are the same controller

Josh, been enjoying the ground course, but how does one get an endorsement to take the written/knowledge test ? (I’m under the impression that it’s required)

The cheapest way is to have a CFI sign you off. Once I complete my last video, I'm going to start working on an app for everyone. Hopefully I can start working on that soon.

@chrisr6385 Месяц назад

Displaced Threshold - can VFR aircraft land on it if pilot accepts obstacle clearance responsibility? For IFR yes I know pilot cannot land on Displaced Threshold because the 3 degree glide slope to the displacement does not provide obstacle clearance.

@FreePilotTraining Месяц назад

Is anyone going to throw you in prison over it? Probably not, but technically you shouldn’t land there. For larger aircraft, the zone is often not stressed for the higher loads either

@johnopalko5223 Месяц назад

I think I may be confused about something. I was under impression that the "dirty D" meant the airport had declared distances. Will a field with declared distances always have a displaced threshold and, conversely, will a field with a displaced threshold always have declared distances? Or is it possible to find one without the other?

@FreePilotTraining Месяц назад

You are correct. The Dirty D will always be present IF there is a displaced threshold. However, you can have a dirty d without a displaced threshold for other reasons (ie. overruns, conjoined taxiways, etc). The figure 8 is the symbol for a displaced threshold. The “D” just alerts you to an issue with runway length
