Graphics, explanation, details and content are extremely useful. I like the what, why, how and where structure of each subject is explained. These videos are the best supplementary content to my ground class. Thank you so much for making these.
I studied ASE in undergrad and happened upon a video about Air France 447. Couldn't quite remember the science/logic behind how the pitot system works to calculate airspeed from pressure... this video was a great refresher! My only neutral comment is I hope the caption voiceover gets better at pronunciation... "peetaught" (pitot) tube and "cahpooluht" (copliot) had me rolling LOL. Thanks for the video!
I was so confused regarding this system but this video explained it perfectly which is just what I needed to study for my glider exam. Thank you so much.
Static ports open directly to the outside of fuselage. When aircraft is flying, there will be air flowing outside of static port. How does this not cause a vacuum effect inside the static port. Due to the Bernoulli Effect, as the speed of air flowing outside of fuselage increases, the pressure inside static port should decrease. This means, on same altitude, depending on my aircrafts speed, I will read different values on my altimeter. What prevents this ?
Wow - so clear!! Thank you! btw, you can trick the TTS to correct pronunciation using phonetic substitues in your script. For example "pee-toe" or "co-pilot" rather than the correct spelling may change the way the TTS says the word. Sometimes you gotta experiment with it a little to get it to say it right. Great job on the video - lots of work in that 14 minutes and it shows!!
Hi David, I’m glad you like the way we explain the concepts. Regarding the use of TTS, I’ve been trying to “trick” the software with some words in the latest videos. As this was the first one I made, it has some mispronounced words. But thanks for the advice!
Sir..love your videos....your teaching is amazing and very east to understand!! Tysm!!❤🙏 And sir I have a small request.. Can you please provide all the slides pdf that you show during videos..if possible!!!! Kindly read into it!!!
I'm very impressed with the educational value of your videos. Thank you very much! One little correction at 4:18, though: Water cannot be compressed, so the densitiy remains the same regardless of the depth. The graphic is somewhat misleading. Obviously, that's not much of an issue for pilots, who usually try to stay above the waterline.
Great channel! These videos are excellent and I have already watched most of them and left a grateful thumbs-up. This is the best content I have seen since the, now deleted, channel which posted the (oxford, I think) aviation training videos. Does anyone know where those videos can be found?
@@AviationTheory The 'Eric (Neural)' voice from Azure TTS sounds really nice too. It even pronounces 'pitot' and 'copilot' correctly without needing any tricks.
Nice video. I don't think the swimming pool explanation is quite correct. With water being a liquid it's not measurably less dense at the top of the pool than the bottom like a gas. Very little compression takes place in a liquid. The pressure does increase with depth, but because of the weight of the water above, not because the water becomes more dense.
Hi Simon, you are right, the water in a pool is not compressed as the air in the atmosphere, so its density is fairly constant. maybe I shouldn't have put the water molecules closer together at the bottom in the example, as this can lead to misunderstandings. I just wanted to show the increase in pressure with depth. Thank you for the appreciation!
This video is OK for the basics. But a modern Air Data System on a modern commercial airliner or business jet is much more complex. To he honest this would not help much for working on a modern commercial or business aircraft.
pitot is pronounced pee-toe. This drives me to be annoyed. good information, but aghhh. Can't listen to the whole thing. maybe get a human to read the script instead of a computer generated voice.
