Proficiency... That about sums up aviation. It's all about proficiency. Whether it be getting ready for a checkride or simply reminding yourself how to do something, you have to be proficient.
Today I took N32042 up to practice some crosswind landings in the traffic pattern at KORL. Not my best performance, but definitely not my worst either.
Enjoy the landings!

Man this video helped me a lot with my confidence. I was flying 46H the other day In the same winds getting ready for my checkride, and was making the same facial expressions. This makes me feel better cause I was pretty hard on myself after.

@JoeCoolPilot 3 года назад

Excellent! Enjoyed the video and watching you fly the pattern. Fly safe!

@ebonyteddy 3 года назад

I thoroughly enjoyed this video! I flew earlier this week for my solo XC. I took off runway 11 winds were 100 @ 9kts G16kts Variable ! The winds weren’t that bad 30 mins earlier but I figured I’d try it. Not the best decision to say the least. I was getting tossed about like a plastic bag in the wind. I figured if I go a little higher towards my intended altitude it would get better... it didn’t. It got worst. So I landed that bad boy while still in the flight pattern. I had plenty of colorful language for the winds that day lol I will try again to complete my XC just not this week.Your reaction was refreshing and genuine. Exactly what I needed after my fail this week.

Nice to see you flying the circuits (sorry patterns) especially on a bumpy day. I tend to agree with the competency keeps you legal and proficiency keeps you safe statement. Although competency is the ability to do something successfully and efficiently ... Last flight I made I had a near miss with a buzzard.

I am getting close to checkride but still struggle with gusty conditions. You seem to have fun with it while I tend to suck the seat cushion right on up. Any tips on feeling better about these conditions? I guess the right answer is to keep doing them and become more "proficient"???

@capta1nc 3 года назад

There's a small range between "too rough to fly" and "too rough to take passengers" where I love to get out and practice. Finding those limits can be tricky though, at some point I'm going to take off and not be able to get back down again (home airport is small and particularly turbulent). Always got the backup option of a much larger runway 10 minutes away to go to! Inconvenient but alive. Live stream was at midnight here - just a tad too late for me to join. Maybe next time!

@LewDixAviation 3 года назад

I like your explanation man! I'll be doing another stream soon!

@twistedmr 3 года назад

i recently went flying in a tecnam eaglet with a 10k hour airline pilot and when he landed it in crosswind, he did what you did with the sharp and agressive control inputs i asked him to explain the method but i dont think he knew how to explain it. I have been taught to crab or slip in to final over the fence and "find the sweet spot", the aggressive inputs are still a mystery to me are you able to explain whats going on with that method?

@freakfly23 3 года назад

I flew to work today. It was calm winds this morning here in Bartow, but now they are gusting to 20. Hopefully they die down this evening.

Hey if you need any tips on them crosswind landings I just got some tips from my instructor recently ;)

@LewDixAviation 3 года назад

I think there’s a video on it 😏

@Zalaniar 3 года назад

Currency is simply are you legal to fly under that situation. Proficiency is if you're actually flying safely and skillfully. You can have one without the other. Being current without being proficient is pretty self-explanatory; you're legal but not skillful. Being proficient without being current is also possible; if I'm keeping up with my skills and I flew yesterday but my BFR ran out today, I may be proficient, but not current.

@spelldaddy5386 3 года назад

Why did you cut the power midfield on the last one? Don't you usually do that when abeam the numbers?

@IslandSimPilot Год назад

Hey Lew, do you normally do full flaps landings? I very rarely do, almost always 2 notches. Curious on your thoughts on this. Thanks!

@LewDixAviation Год назад

Hey! I land full flaps unless it’s gusty.

@IslandSimPilot Год назад

@@LewDixAviation I find my biggest problem is speed control, coming in too fast. Maybe I need to get that last notch out there. Thanks Lew!

@LewDixAviation Год назад

@@IslandSimPilot Exactly! It’s there for your benefit 👍🏻

@IslandSimPilot Год назад

@@LewDixAviation Really appreciate it, Lew. I was taught that your "normal" landing was two notches and never really gave it much thought. Where in the pattern or approach would you normally put that third notch in? Sorry for the many questions, I really do appreciate it!

@wghart1 2 года назад

What would be great is if someone would place a camera to show the rudder pedals and sync them with one showing the yoke on approach with the crab and then landing in the crosswind

@adjuaadama6623 3 года назад

Current: Six approaches, tracking and holding, etc. every six months via the hood, foggles, or the sim. Proficient: Seeking out solid IMC and gaining actual experience in both attitude flying and instrument approaches to landing. Low to mid level fair weather cumulus clouds are really good with keeping you proficient as the up and down drafts aren't severe but will teach you how to ignore the somatogravic sensations. You should also work to challenge your task saturation on instruments like doing sim work or foggles work with ATC when it's busy, or something like an Oscar Pattern while running checklists.

Loved this video. Currency is more of a legal definition, you have done 3 landings in 90 days. Proficiency is being comfortable with the plane and flying much more than the required 3 landings in 90 days. What is the purpose of the velcro on the shoulder harness? I've never seen you put anything there....

@randyvanvliet226 3 года назад

Currency is meeting the legal standard to pass.... equal a "D grading" as in barely passing. Proficiency is being well practiced in all conditions and maintaining something at a very good to outstanding " B", or "A" grade level. You don't go out to dinner to eat at a restaurant with a county health rating of a "C", not when "B" or "A" inspection gradings are available. Check the fligh historys and compare.

Proficient is able to fly the plane well. Current is maintaining required pilot minimums for TO and Landings within the 90 day timeframe. You can be current and not be proficient. Not flying for 6 months and going up. Might not have the skill sharp enough.
