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.

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

Yes they are! The better lighting actually allows for lower minimums in bad weather under IFR

@larrya7822 4 месяца 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 4 месяца 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 3 месяца 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.

@Pilot_engineer_19 4 месяца назад

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

@FreePilotTraining 4 месяца 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.

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 4 месяца 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

@FreePilotTraining Месяц назад

Any CFI or ground instructor can endorse you once you show them that you are ready to take the exam. I will offer an endorsement at some point. Im just not quite set up to do that yet

@Amos-fn7ie 3 месяца назад

could you plz upload some Vedic About ENGINE ?

@chrisr6385 4 месяца 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 4 месяца 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 4 месяца 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 4 месяца 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
