I flew that plane from KAUN to KBUR for my commercial cross country with an instructor. We got to Burbank and after stopping at the FBO to get food and fuel we begin getting out IFR clearance when smoke filled the cockpit. Squawk 7600, I actually had to stop my instructor from almost putting in 7500! Then shut everything down. Turned out the grounding wire had caught fire. Spent the night in burbank for obvious reasons. Flew back the next day. I love that plane. I’ve been everywhere with it. And sunshine is awesome! I just did spin training there with CFI Kelley. He was great and helped me get over my anxiety with stalls. Love your videos. They’ve got so much fantastic information that no other channel on here gives.

@adjuaadama6623 3 года назад

This video came right on time, as I'm presently going through this as well with the Archer III and the Warrior III's. I flew an Arrow III for about seven or eight years, and I've had the chance to solo two Seminoles from my present location the last three years, but I wanted to fly the cheaper Archers/Warriors and had never flown them before. And even though they feel relatively familiar, there are differences and you have to get used to them. I also had to reshift my focus back to shifting between the left and right fuel tanks again as you don't have to do that in twins minus a crossfeed scenario. I feel pretty good about them now, but it does take a couple flights to really feel comfortable. Even the engine sounds are a bit different.

The way I learned to identify the taxi way centerline is to make sure that your right foot if you were in the left seat is over the centerline. That will put you there 99% of the time. Also on a low in aircraft you can look at the wing tips and judge the distance from the tip to the edge of the taxi way.

I thought I heard you say that you put the prop forward at engine start. If that is so when your flash came up you should’ve pulled your power back to 25 inches manifold pressure and reduced prop to 2500 for the climb. From there it is usually 23 square for crews.

@StjepanNikolic 2 года назад

Thanks for the video Jason, however there are couple of items I would do differently. First, start from the Least tank, which may not necessarily be the Left tank, then during the runnups switch to the tank with more fuel. Check list item such as "set the heading bug into the wind" is probably a reminder to steer your ailerons into the wind whilst taxing:) I would rather set the bug to active (into wind) runway and confirm when lining up. In any emergency below ~1000ft, there won't be any time to switch the tanks. Pitch for best gliding speed (~79kt) then land ahead. Finally, I would do the flight planning before entering the aircraft.. Regardless, great video! Cheers

During the runup check, it was indicated that checking the alt air (at 10:30) "helps the engine breath." Isn't alt air just to give an alternate static air source (to the altimeter, VSI and airspeed indicator)? Admittedly, I'm not familiar with the Arrow.

@TheFinerPoints 3 года назад

No that's a different alt air. You're thinking of the "alternate static air source" -- which does what you said. There is a separate thing in fuel-injected airplanes called "alternate air" which provides a second induction air source for the engine in the event the main induction air source gets blocked. Good question!

@zachheilman784 3 года назад

In some airplanes it may be referred to as "Carb Heat" also. Basically you're bypassing the intake air filter and drawing from somewhere inside the cowling.

@tag180rotax 3 года назад

Do you prefer flaps down on landing for drag purposes? My instructor taught flaps up for more weight on the tires for better braking

@Valantir 3 года назад

The difference in braking is marginal, and lets put it this way. My current companies SOP’s forbid putting flaps up till clear of the runway and doing the after landing checks because in people’s hurry to “improve braking” they’ve gone gear up not flaps up.

Question for the masses. Im a big guy, 6'4, 245lbs. I mostly have been flying in cessnas and can easily climb in and out of the cockpit. I'm looking at maybe going in the direction of the pipers to open up plane availability when renting. My question is this: how difficult is it to get in and out of the piper when there is only the door on the right side? How cumbersome is it to have to climb from the right side to the left on entrance and egress? Apologize is this is a dumb question, but I would really like to hear from someone who has some height to them. Thanks!

@gregdavis4625 3 года назад

Good video, as always, but I'd offer some different procedures to consider. If you have an anti-collision light, why turn on the strobes on the ramp? If it's at night, that can be very annoying/distracting to other pilots and people on the ramp. Regarding always talking on the top radio and listening on the bottom: Consider talking and receiving on both radios so that you know each transmits and receives before you takeoff. Easier to do at a towered airport, but can be done at non-towered as well. Probably not a huge deal if you're launching VFR, but could be important if IFR. It's probably worth doing a quick ground check on the Nav radios too. And speaking of Nav radios, definitely look to see that navigators like the 430 are in the correct mode before departing (VLOC vs GPS).

@benberg1809 3 года назад

One question, some people dump the flaps just after they touch down (just a few knots below touchdown speed), and others wait until the aircraft is off the runway/ at taxi speed. Are they circumstantial? Or is there a reason to do one over the other?

@SoloRenegade 3 года назад

It can be a distraction, so many CFI have their students wait to avoid loss of control after touchdown. Many accidents, or almost accidents, occur when pilots focus on raising the flaps and stop maintaining directional control on the roll out. At unpaved airports in low wing aircraft, raising the flaps sooner can minimize damage from rocks and such getting kicked up into the flaps. I personally raise flaps promptly once the landing is sure. Partially because raising the flaps raises the stall speed and reduces any remaining lift. This helps plant the aircraft on the wheels/runway. But often times I'm already below stall speed at this point, so it doesn't always matter. STOL pilots will raise the flaps even sooner, almost at the moment of touchdown, for similar reasons. But I also raise the flaps as part of my flow, doing touch and go, so it's normal for me.

@TheFinerPoints 3 года назад

If you’re doing a short field landing you’ll typically raise them right away to put the weight of the aircraft onto the wheels and therefore the brakes. But the hazards of going for switches or levers while you’re rolling out are the distraction of doing it and the possibility of raising the gear by accident.

Jason - Like Dan M., I also learned to fly out of KAUN in the early 1980's... also out of Horizon Aviation. Stepped away from GA for a brief 32 years and just recently began flying again. I live in the Bay Area these days, but am returning to Auburn once a week or so to build time in a Cessna 320. It's good to be back - both literally and figuratively! Love your videos. Maybe I'll run into you on the ramp, or at Wings, one of these days. I do have one question... I was taught that when overflying the field for a pattern entry that one should be +/- 500' above TPA when crossing overhead. You crossed at TPA. Is that a traffic-dependant strategy? Thanks!

@larryehrlich8702 3 года назад

Here's a finer point that 99.999+% of the pilots don't know. Your wet sump oil system when full has "twice" the oil quanity compared to the certification tests. The certification tests were done with 1/2 the full oil quanity.The tests were done with extreme pitch up attitudes as well as extreme pitch down attitudes that you can only hold for a few seconds before you either stall the aircraft or over speed the aircraft. My Cessna 182 was certified with 6 quarts of oil. It's full oil capacity is 12 quarts. I always run it at 8 quarts of oil and I add a quart when it drops to 7 quarts. Look it up...it's in the regulations! Blue skys! I flew MD-11's and earlier the DC-10's for a living...retired now due to age.

@basesperanca 3 года назад

Thanks for another great video! I had a small discussion recently with another CFI about strobes on the ground. The other CFI was adamant that strobes should be off on the ground, only turned on when entering the runway and turned off when vacating at all times, to prevent that you'd forget about them at night and disturb someone. I noticed you turned them on directly after engine start, so what's your take on that? Cheers!

@scottsimpkins350 3 года назад

My instructor taught me the same. And that’s how I do it in my flow. At a controlled AP, when tower gives clearance, landing light, strobes, fuel pump and action… at non tower, when I announce my departure, same flow…. After landing and crossed taxi hold line, flaps, fuel pump, mixture, lights & then talk. Never had any complaints from other pilots to towers.

@NoNonsenseScalping 3 года назад

Doing CIGARS when you have a checklist is such a waste of time and inefficient. The reason for the checklist is because it is particular to the equipment on the aircraft. Notice how after doing CIGARS he had to go back and do a few things that he missed on the checklist and even had to go back to add power for a check that could have been done during run-up. CIGARS/GUMPS are good things to do when no checklist is available or as a final check before takeoff or landing after checklist is complete.

Great videos. LOSE THE GUM! The lip smack is atrocious! Edit that garbage sound if you can't handle your gum. All the rest is gold! Keep up the work.

Oops, at 900 feet we forgot to set climb power. If that is not a turbo, it is probably 25 square. If it is a turbo it’s usually 33 manifold pressure 2475 RPM. By the way, I used to fly out of Sunshine Flyers about 7 years ago. They are the ones that got my tail wheel sign off with the Citabria. I don’t know if they have that plane anymore.

Always nice to see two you tubers I follow flying out of KAUN... Air Wagner - Jerry and The Finer Points!! Nioce. I need to get back in the game. Haven't flown since 2007.... Need to check AOPA's rusty pilot series... Thanks Jason for the motivation!!

Never pull power on a low wing, they sinks like a rock and especially with a T Tail, you need some power to help elevator authority. A little power and hold bottom of green arc with full flaps til you’re a few feet above runway. Then smoothly reduce power as you start to settle and lift nose one or two degrees and it will grease every time.
