First Flying Lesson 

THIS is the kind of instructor EVERYONE should have!

i smiled when lewis said to him "welcome to the sky" haha

Loved the relaxed teaching attitude. I would love to learn to fly from Lewis

I haven't even begun my flying yet but the way you are able to manage many things at once like letting him make his own mistakes and correct them without going into a dangerous situation and also teach him at the same time is amazing. Well Done!

Why do yo want to fly: Its just an amazing opportunity and experience. Its like stepping into a different world, with unique feelings, rules and situations. Being able to fly over, seeing things from a different perspective. Navigate in a different level of freedom.... So many things that make it special...

An older friend who is starting his primary training in a few days, asked me "what will my flight instructor have me do on the first flight lesson?" Well, that was over 50 years ago in my case, so I didn't remember. But I found this Geordie video for him and I think it will help him a great deal. Thanks for posting.

Now this is the video I was looking for. A student's first try at flying a plane. Could you upload videos with this guy cause he is like a begginer and I would love to see what are some if the things that are taught on the first practical class.

You're good with your students Lewis. Nice film.

"Master of the trim"...oh so true. I always refer to it as the "poor man's autopilot" !

At 56 with a desire to learn how to fly I believe that you will be an excellent instructor

Definitely needed to watch this. I just got my CFI and I’ve been wondering how to handle first flights with my students and this helped me a lot. Much appreciated, love your videos.

I am starting my training this coming January. I wish this guy the best of luck in his journey.

Jose will do fine in his airline career; he has a solid primary instructor. Great upload.

Thanks CDR Dude: I’ve watched hundreds of aviation vids; I never heard a CFI talk primary and secondary flight controls. Awesome.

You are an excellent teacher, you inspire confidence 👍

This is the 2nd lesson I've seen. You are so encouraging! I really like these videos. Thanks for posting!

Going through a CFI Academy right now so videos like these are a great inspiration. Thank you!

I have my first flying lesson in 2 weeks and I’m so excited!

"You will be a master of the trim." LOL...

Hello from your motherland Lewis! Awesome video mate, I am just about to start my PPL here in the UK. I can only hope my teacher is as fun and as good as teacher as you appear to be. Keep the videos coming.

Gives me goosebumps great video

Your way in training it’s excellent and easy,, you are the master of the sky Lewis your films very useful thank you. 💚

Great teaching 👌, I'm 36 and I might start someday, life is though nowadays

Awesome! I am thinking seriously about learning to fly and I could see myself learning with Lewis. Top bloke 👍🏻

I just turned 14 and a couple months back I did a experience flight but now I am 14 I can start the actually lessons/training and also I can log my flights and my hours start counting and so I am hoping to get a lesson in before the end of the year as my grandma and grandad bought me a flight lesson. Very very excited for it!!

Quality work as usual.

You're a good teacher, nice video!

17. Thats awesome bro! You picked a good cfi!

Hello I am a student my dream was becoming pilot since I was 10. Many people made fun that I can't make it, but I believe I can do it, this video really made me excited at the same time I'm learning from it, and ur in incredible calmed teacher!

Your way of describing is very comprehensive. It is easy to understand. Thank you Pilot.

Love ur videos buddy ...Keep making such gd stuffs …!

lol the face you made at the 1000ft checklist when the plane was in such a high angle of attack made me die of laughter, I was doing the same shenanigans when I first started great to see

Great video! Great positive instruction!

I wish i had him as an instructor. you sounds fun and keep this interesting.

I’ve been watching a lot of these videos the past few days and I’ve noticed pretty much everyone knows a little to a decent amount of knowledge of the controls in the cockpit etc… I’d love to start getting lessons and getting my PPL in the uk in the next couple of years is there anything I should be learning/watching/reading before I book my discovery flight/taster flight/first lesson? Thanks! And brilliant video as always!

Just started watching your vids and getting into aviation. Doing my discovery flight next weekend here in Southern Cali. Good stuff man! Subscribed.

It was so funny when he started reading the checklist and the plane started pitching up LOL! Reminded me of he mistake I made on my first flight too 😂😂.. brings back memories!!!! Got a right slap in from my dad then because he was sitting at the back... whoopsie! That’s my first discovery flight summarised for yall!

that shit eating grin you have when he is doing the climb check and starts pitching up, that had me laughing hard lol

First lesson is tomorrow. Nervous but really excited. Hope I do well!

Keep up the good work Lewis, I really enjoy your videos and your sense of humor. It’s nice to see other folks out enjoying flying as well. I hope to make it down to sunny FL one day, I’m stuck flying in Oklahoma for now.

This was a very good video, Good instructions.

New CFI Here. Awesome video on how to work with new students! This helped me more than you'd have any clue it did. Thanks!

You're a great Instructor! I hope I get one like you when I start my lessons.

17!?!?! I just got started at nearly 30. Nice flying

“Eye-transition”; wow, Teacher-great advice! Thank you!

Wow I never expected to be able to takeoff on your first lesson

First lesson on Friday, so this video makes me feel a hell of a lot better. Didn’t know what to expect

Great filming! What mount do you use to attach the GoPro to the ceiling? I can't seem to be able to do that on a PA28 with a suction cup mount.

This is awesome! I loved my instructor! I started my RU-vid channel after getting my PPL and using my plane to repossess vehicles.

I'm doing my discovery flight tomorrow. I'm so excited! Lol but also overwhelmed, trying to figure out how to afford this dream!

I absolutely love your style. Might have to take some tips from you - looking at training to become an instructor myself!

Amazing I wish my flight instructor will be like u

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 beautiful

digging your videos!

Awesome instructor!

Saint dix, you are a true pro 😀loving it as usual

Went for a pleasure flight today. Never been in a light aircraft before. Two minutes into the flight, the pilot just said... " you have controls " the one hour flight,,,, I fly 45 mins of it, IT WAS AWSOME!!!!!!!! OK... i am a very practical person, with lots of common sense.. PPL here I come..

I’m 15 and my first lesson is actually next Sunday great video and understandable

Another great video, although you are not teaching me, I am still learning some from watching your videos. I love it!

I love this guy...Brings fun and comedy to aviation, but keeps it professional all at the same time. Makes learning easier and more enjoyable. His students will learn more and retain more, for sure... 5:17...He said he could be a "Master of Trim"...LMFAO

Where was this filmed ? Great video btw !

Great instructor

Heard ya yesterday coming into ORL. Love the vids!

In my first flight, getting used to steering on the ground with my feet and not my hands was so weird!

Love your vids and definitely your since of humor. Keep up the good work sir. Does your flight school offer discovery flights? If so, may I schedule one with you? Need an instructor who isn’t up tight. LOL.

Are there any programs for peaple that want to work or live at a airport..to help pay for training. Thankyou for the visual experience .awesome work

You are a superb instructor. You give so much confidence. I'm guessing you are from the Manchester area of the UK?

I’m having my first flight soon... I’m really anxious.

Great videos and an even better instructor. Can I ask which airfield you are flying from?

"take your hand off that, you're not gonna need that" Curious if anybody has chimed into the comments yet about the importance of learning on-the-ground aileron control depending on wind direction. First lesson may be premature, but I was introduced to this even on my first "Discovery Flight" (or, "we'll take you up in a GA aircraft, and hand controls as you feel comfortable throughout the flight") while taxxiing.

Wow amazing my dream job

Is the first flight lesson the same as the demo tour, or is this the step after the initial demo tour.? Because im going to have my demo tour this saturday and if i get to do all the stuff that Jose got to do im in heaven;). Im conservative with my expectations at best i expect to get to make a few turns , climb trim , if i get to take off thats a bonus;). If my first ever flight lesson is anything like this then it will be amazing;).

hi, I was wondering how you capture your audio on this. I'm about to go on my first lesson and I would like to make a video of it. many thanks.

I would love to learn how to fly and I wish I could find an instructor like you sir.

I was looking at the scenery and was like wow that kinda looks like lake apopka, then you point to the right and asked if he could see downtown Orlando lol. I took my first discovery flight at Orlando exec when I was 12 years old. I am scheduled to go fly this upcoming weekend out of X04 in apopka. 25 years old now and financially ready to get my PPL

Welcome to the sky Jose.

Excellent instrcutor.

Nice video, man! I am so excited to start flying. What do you think, can I start a flight career when I'm 42?

Pretty Cool! 😎

I see you have the bose a20 but what headsets did he use?

You're a really good instructor. when you gonna head to the Airlines? :-) my first Flight lesson my instructor talked me through landing with his hands off and had me park. It was a Diamond Katana and soooo easy to fly

I have as few questions. So ik I'm a bit young. I'm 14 but what age do you have to be to get into flying and how do you get into flying. I'm really interested in doing it in the future. I'm in Australia. Got any idea.

Love this man✌ I'm also 17 and I really wanna get my first lesson How can I contact you?

damn I feel so lucky that I am training on a plane with a G1000 system, every other video I've seen it has been like a 1980s cessna, while all the aircraft I will be using for training are 2006 and newer

8:56 🤣🤣 watching this video so I can feel comfortable about flying my first flight

the guy getting the lesson is so handsome holy damn

I subscribe to the flying reporter who is an excellent pilot! So believe me that’s high praise indeed 😀 Steve.

I wish you were my flight instructor. After my first flight lesson I've lost the joy to fly. My flight instructor in Thailand put so much pressure on me. He told me he was checking if I stay calm or get in panic in high pressure moments, to see if I'm suitable to become a pilot. Is this a normal procedure to check the students or just a bad habbit of a former military pilot?

Im allso 17 and lerning in a flight academy in israel. and im actualy flying on the warrior II So thats amazing

I’ve just turned 40 can I still have a flying lesson or am I to old now I love flying would love to give it a try I just want to be in the sky as much as possible it’s nicer in the sky

What aeroplane is this?

i really enjoyed watching your videos. I wished you were living in GA

Good Job Captain . . . I am happy for you, keep it up . . . hey . . . don't forget about your friends in ISM, the "Mouse" still waiting to be flown by you. See ya soon Mon . . .

Why did I think the Dove thing in the begging was chocolate flavored applesauce 😭😭

Trim Master..!!

I would like this guys to be my fly instructor he keep it simple

Do I understand it right that, Stall will happen when you have a large angle of attack at relative low speed? But if with the same angle of attack, the speed is much higher, then stall won't happen? And the plane will climb up of course. Right? What are those speeds and angle of attacks?

What plane is that

He must defenetily be my flight instructor

Is that a piper PA28
