Give Me A Brake! Brake Problem In My Airplane! 

South of Houston there is an antenna farm which is what you see. I am not sure why they would build them so high, but they are huge and you can see them from the entire city.

I typically said "inbound for [landng type]". It establishes that T&G, full stop, taxi-back, etc is your intention, but we all know in aviation that intentions are just that. I just recently discovered Kay and am very impressed with her professionalism. She'll make a great 121 pilot. My one tiny critique that we're all guilty of is just to make sure not to prepend your callsign with "for" when responding to a ATC directive. "Right 090 for 44X", for example, could cause confusion. Was the callsign 444X or just 44X? It's just improper radio telephony. It's a hard habit for native English speakers to break because we like talking in complete sentences, but it is wholly unnecessary. "Right 090, 44X" is all you need.

Well thank you Larry! Glad you enjoyed the video😊

I am for flap retraction on the runway to avoid anything that maybe kicked up by the tires. I am a pilot and even during flight training the instruction is raise the flaps. And, she learned to fly from her dad. Every single video you will see that the flaps are retracted on roll out on the runway. There is a switch called a squat switch that prevents gear retraction on the ground.

@@ohwell2790 that's a new excuse that I've never heard before as to why to retract flaps "to avoid anything that maybe kicked up". Yes I am very familiar with the squat switch, but you do realize they can fail? Even if the squat switch is working properly, if you do not have full weight of the aircraft on the wheel the squat switch may not be activated. Just because "that is the way I was taught" or "that's how my instructor did it" doesn't mean it is correct.

Kay put red brake fluid in her little red Cherokee. All color matched! 🥰🤩😘🤪

Haha exactly! Good job!

@@FlyWithKay norm is not the way. I’m sorry. Accident can happen because everybody loves to go for straight in 🛬You should be example to others as flight instructor to follow the rules.

​@@mooneyairventure I would disagree...in part and I'm using FAA so not always the most reliable source :) . Straight in approaches are regularly used to safely terminate flight for both VFR and IFR flights. There are allowed due to the fact that FAA only regulates pattern flow and not pattern entry. Since a straight in does not enter the the pattern it is considered safe, acceptable and the norm. This is all referenced in FAR/AIM and FAA Advisory Circular AC 90-66B. There is no replacing good situational awareness, proper communication on CTAF, see/avoid and being familiar with the airport. In an new or unfamiliar airport entering the traffic pattern is recommended. It would be interesting to see if there was an increased accident/go around rate for straight in visual straight in approaches in uncontrolled fields that are filed ARSR database.

@@eolle43it’s not prohibited to go for straight in approach. But safety is the most important factor. Not everyone reports their position on CTAF. That is for sure! I almost had 2 accident because of that. They are many GA aviation without transponder or radio in class G or E, so entering the traffic pattern at 45 or as listed on the chart supplement is to your advantage and safety to other aircraft for sequencing and scanning for other traffic!

@@eolle43 yes AC90-66B is a very important document when working at non-towered airports, keep in mind technically an Advisory Circular is not law HOWEVER the Advisory Circular is how the FAA interprets and explains the regulations and what it expects you to do. The FAA does not disallow straight in approaches, in fact item 9.5 states that "The FAA encourages pilots to use the standard traffic pattern" That doesn't say you MUST use it, just that it might be a good idea, it further goes on (I'm paraphrasing now) that if a straight in approach is elected for whatever reason it is up to the pilot to coordinate with other aircraft that are in the traffic pattern. In other words putting yourself on a 5 mile straight in final doesn't give you priority over other aircraft now that you are "on final" as that would be taking advantage of the right of way rules to cut in front of other aircraft, last sentence 14 CFR 91.113 (g)

Are you a CFII Mooney? Maybe she knows something you don't! You should always be learning and maybe not trying to be an Internet teacher!

Left and right wheels have completely separate braking systems. Tap left rudder if you lose your left brake.

@@willarddevoe5893 My Cherokee had a hand brake with one master cylinder under the panel. Master cylinder blows out means no brakes.

Wow thank you so much!!!

I'd say 82mph

Yes that definitely could have been an option, but I felt that the 360 approach kept me out of the traffic pattern area and therefor was safer😊

Thanks for the advice!

I wasn’t stressed at all😊

If you meant 75, then yes!!!

It's Cessna just to let you know

Well welcome to my channel! Good guess, but it’s 75😊

Close! 75 actually😊

Close!!!

Thanks!

Airplanes have various speeds depending on the plane and take off weight.

That’s right!

Indeed! Good job!!
