I'm a retired CFI, this is fun to watch, not in a diabolical way. 🙂 Kim your doing great !! just keep at it, it will get easier, you just have to experience it to under stand it. Big Cheers!!

@jamesburns2232 2 года назад

Anybody who can get a driver's license can eventually learn to fly. The key word here is........eventually. The military doesn't have time to train people who don't get traction right out of the box. A lot of white men are denied pilot's wings because they don't do well in the first 30 hours of instruction in an airplane. 🤨🤓🧐☹

@tonyjohns7310 2 года назад

Boy, do I ever empathize with Kim about wanting to be perfect the first time out on everything, and how tense and upsetting it was to her to make mistakes. Intellectually, we all know that the best way to learn is to make mistakes because of the human impulse not to want to repeat them. But in the gut, it's not a pleasant process, and even less so when you're flying because you instinctually know that mistakes at altitude can have serious consequences. The thing about mistakes is, though, that if you're persistent and work through them, you come out the other end SO much better off and with so much more conviction and confidence in not just your skills, but the decision-making needed to use them. Keep it up, Kim! You're doing great!

@prussiaaero1802 2 года назад

Congrats on choosing a young instructor, he seems so chilled and uses very clear instructions and compliments. I like how he says “we” didn’t have enough right rudder, he shares ownership of how the flight went. The last thing a student needs is to constantly hear “YOU” didn’t use enough right rudder.

@aidenthegreat1384 2 года назад

I have him for my flight training course I’m taking for class right now and he’s an amazing instructor

@BaronPilot 2 года назад

I don’t know what Matt paid you to say that but you better go collect!!! 😜😂😂

@peterwaugh9416 2 года назад

People can tell you till their blue in the face, but you have to experience it to really understand what they are talking about. Kim, you have such a big head start having spent time in the Barron that there is no way you could ever fail. Easy for me to say but will be hard for you to do, I know it, you know it. It's going to be so much fun seeing you do your first solo. You've got this.

@andresnieto37 2 года назад

I will keep this for myself to remember when I start my flight training. I can't wait to achieve the biggest goal of my life. It's gonna take a long way, but I know I can make it.

Let this series motivate you as you hit your peaks and valleys. 🍻

@jimmykosko 2 года назад

I definitely remember those first flights… so nervous, almost forgot about having fun and enjoying the whole experience. I was laughing too myself watching you…not at you but remembering how I felt in the early days of my training. Thought I am not cut out for this…by the time I was in my 5 or 6 flight it started to feel I got this…and guess what? I did and so will you. You got this !

@v1rotait23 2 года назад

Woo hoo Kim's flying! - Kim, you are doing so well. That FIRST LANDING was great, and you have the skills, you have the gentle touch on the controls, you just now how to train that overthinking clever brain of yours to get used to doing the movements and not get anxious about the "what ifs". Don't listen to your head, don't over think "your performance". You're a very high achiever and I think afraid of letting yourself down? Don't! We've all been there as "ham-fisted students" as Matt said learning all this stuff. YOU WILL GET THIS! (in no time at all). As it's all so new for your brain to comprehend, it can get so overwhelming, but that's OK. As I write this, you'll be much further down the lessons, and will be thinking, "it doesn't feel so bad now"! It's all familiarity, so keep moving forward, and thank you so much for sharing your lessons and experience with us all. This takes me back to learning so long ago in 1989. I had a silly grin on my face all through this video. Well done Kim! 😃

@alanmitchell7207 2 года назад

Kim, please dont be too critical on yourself. This is a process and repetitive flights will give you the understanding and confidence. It’s not like riding a bicycle and these skills need constant honing it be proficient . All the best to you! Love the videos and your sharing your experiences…

@peterseverin2379 2 года назад

Kim, this is reassuring and encouraging to watch. I'm loving that you are sharing your learning experience with us. We all learn differently and it's humbling to watch you expressing some of the vulnerabilities we all have when we challenge ourselves and attempt to do the things we really enjoy. My pops shared a poem with my siblings and I when we were little. A little part of it goes like this...."when things go wrong as they sometimes will, rest if you must but don't you quit."

@foodtoflyfor7791 2 года назад

Hey Kim! Looking pretty good really. It’s different for everyone at the start. Don’t worry about those stalls, it’ll come eventually. Don’t forget to eat :)

@danielbasovitch5087 2 года назад

Hello from Minnesota! Great episode!

@espee9980 2 года назад

SIC your experience brings back memories when I was going through flight training. I do see that things have changed a bit as we were taught to land w/o flaps first then with flaps after, same with stalls and slow flight. Your doing great keep going and don't be so hard on your self.

@mylife1221 Год назад

wish there were more documentaries like this out there. love watching people stepping out of their comfort zone and allowing that zone to expand

@vaughnbluejr5960 2 года назад

@ltexas4936 2 года назад

I’m really liking these videos. Kim is doing really great.

@paulolivieri1439 2 года назад

I recently received my PPL, and boy watching these videos really reminds me of the mistakes us beginners pilots all make. Your doing great!!! congrats on that landing though it looked good. Tip: When doing maneuvers always keep your hand on that power, never take your hand off. When in cruise flight you can take it off that’s about the only time my hands not on the power. Also when landing, never push the nose down, when i was learning that was my big mistake, you have more then enough runway length so keep the nose up and let the plane do the rest. If you feel like anything is not right just go around!! Best of luck! Your going to kill it 🤙🏽

@johnvanduren4806 2 года назад

Great series, bringing back clear memories of my training in 1966/67. In the end all the nerves are worth it, it helps keep you in check and focuses your thinking. Keep going and you will get that ticket to fly.

@gordonmier4359 2 года назад

Way to go Kim. You got this. Any time we start learning something new, nerves kick in. I think it’s natural. One step at a time.

@davidendsley2391 2 года назад

Awesome Kim your first landing all on your own and you greased it. Congratulations your doing just fine. Can’t wait to see more

@dennismiller7605 2 года назад

Hi Kim, 82 year old long time fan here. Anyone who has flown is mentally in your shoes, recalling when we learned to fly. Stay cool, you look to me like you are doing great. Kim, I learned to fly in Illinois during the winter and the weather sucked. It was 28 hours before my first solo and I thought something was wrong with me. Not so, but I felt pressure. A year later I was landing on ice on the same runway and a cross wind. Hang in there....proud of you. Best regards, Dennis Miller Anthem, AZ

@patrickaalto 2 года назад

Very nice! Never worry about making mistakes during the training, Kim! You will learn from every mistake, so the more mistakes you make, the more you will learn!

@t67m 2 года назад

... and not just during training! Mistakes are how we learn. Every flight has mistakes - the best pilots seek them out and learn from them all, even when they have 20,000 hours.

@PRiver-sv2mc 2 года назад

Godspeed Kim! Your on-line family has EVERY confidence in you.

“The Guide says there is an art to flying", "or rather a knack. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.”

@kf8679 2 года назад

Kim..great job..please please dont be too hard on yourself...Some of the best learning comes from making mistakes...if a person doesnt make mistakes or think they wont ....that's cocky and no one likes a cocky pilot...Your building confidence...the most seasoned pilots aka Baron Pilot learn something new everyday ..How do I know I seen the videos...you know too cause you were in them....😉..Hang tough ..you got this Kim..

@madether 2 года назад

Kim, the early stages seem quite overwhelming but I bet now that you look back at the early stages of your training you will see how much you have learnt. There is so much to learn and it is daunting but every lesson it becomes easier. Thanks for sharing your experience with us.

@kjwiles 2 года назад

Way to go Kim, keep up the good work, it just takes time!!

@essbe7158 2 года назад

Very nice of Kim to allow us to see this aspect of learning to fly. Appreciate the video and look forward to more of Kim's training. Thank you both.

"Baseball (flying) is 90 per cent mental. The other half is physical." Keep up the good work ;-)

@boydw1 2 года назад

You're doing great Kim! Nice landing! You have have the advantage of already being familiar with the sight picture in each phase of flight - you know what it's supposed to look like out the window (just a little slower in the Cessna). With more familiarity on the controls, it will get easier to replicate that.

@JBInTheMorning 2 года назад

Freaking Awesome Job!! Very proud of your journey Kim!!

@t67m 2 года назад

It brings back so many memories of learning to fly myself, of when my partner learned, and now as a flying coach, I get to share the thrill the student feels when something new "clicks" for the first time. Keep up the good work, Kim!

@outdoororiginal4364 2 года назад

You go girl… you rock, and you got this !!

@mickemike2148 2 года назад

Matt is a better flight instructor than I ever was. Kim! You're gonna ace this!

@nickspradley508 2 года назад

Power on stalls were the scariest part of training for me due to the increased attitude as well as the rolling tendency if you weren't completely coordinated. Kim did great!

@jaysimmons9598 2 года назад

Well done Kim!!!! Been there and totally feel it!

@johnvercelli34 2 года назад

Congrats Kim! Glad to see you starting your training. Hang in there and keep the faith it will get easier with time and confidence. Looking forward to watching your journey. Enjoy!

@dtfuller1969 2 года назад

This is an excellent video for what I can expect. Keep it up SIC! I just started self study ground school and look forward to getting in the plane soon.

@CocoEspada 2 года назад

Kim you’re doing just fine to be completely honest. We all started nervous and terrible, but as you fly IN CONTROL for hours and hours and HOURS, trust me, you will be like, “wow I can’t believe this made me nervous at one point.” Your body will learn the muscle memory and it will take many hours of practice.

@DeereGuy211 2 года назад

You got this Kim!!! Mistakes are how we learn. Great job greasing your first landing. Can't wait to see the next video!!

@jcurley84 2 года назад

Great job, Kim! Good to finally see you in the left seat. You're going to be a great pilot.

@JCrook1028 2 года назад

This is so brave of you to share. It's also SO SO valuable to ALL others going thru or planning on going thru the same process! Thank You Kim!!!!!!!!!!!

@amymitchell3859 2 года назад

@staraviationstaraviation8703 2 года назад

Way to go Kim! A great start to you training, especially your first landing! Congratulations from this side of the pond!

@mark6121 2 года назад

This is so exciting! There’s a whole lot going on, but just trust the process. The mental aspect of learning is real. There’s ups and downs, but just keep on working through it. I’d have a flight where I aced everything, then the very next flight felt like I’d never set foot in an airplane. It’s all part of the story even though it can be extremely frustrating!

@turdwarbler 2 года назад

Hey Kim, you are doing great, trust me the hundreds of things that seem to come at you in the circuit will suddenly slow down and you will begin to enjoy it more and more. I am enjoying watching your journey to PPL. !!

@mattf49006 2 года назад

You have a unique situation here..all those hours in the baron..working radios and navigation will help you immensely as your training progresses...on the other hand actually being in control without Kris is a adjustment in of itself...watching your progress here and gaining confidence shows me that you'll overcome the obstacles we all encountered...keep at it ..you'll rock it

@Eagle269Ubet 2 года назад

Excellent, your well on your way. I am confident you will be flying on your own in no time!

@tstanley01 2 года назад

The way I do/teach power on stalls doesn't involve the turn coordinator at all. I pull power back, pitch up to slow down. At Vx I add full power and looking out your Lindbergh reference, bring the horizon to where the top corner of the side panel meets the glare shield (in a 172, that is about 20 degrees). Make sure you keep the wings level and using something on the ground as a reference, use the rudder to keep the plane from drifting left or right. It gets super simple when you stop focusing on the gauges and actually look out the side window. Usually after I demonstrate it once, they have it down by the 2nd or 3rd try. The biggest issue I see is them focusing on the drift and letting the nose drop, so we never stall, or cross correcting with the wings. If the wings are level and you're using the rudder to keep the nose from drifting, it will break straight ahead...

@stephenreese5921 2 года назад

@brianb5594 2 года назад

Way to go Kim! You are well on your way. Stick with it! It will all come together quicker than you think.

@Victordamus98 2 года назад

Great series! As someone who just completed the PPL, I totally understand where she is coming from in regards to stalls and being perfect. I struggled with power on stalls especially keeping the ball on the center. However, I felt turning power on stalls made me much more comfortable to perform the maneuver. Keep chugging along!

@fred4377 2 года назад

Kim... you are a very smart person. Just be assured YOU CAN DO THIS. You've taken off, piloted, banked the Baron. You know the Barons instruments. You know the basics. Go do it girl!!

@stephenreese5921 2 года назад

Kim, when I started to learn to fly, I attempted a landing and proposed down the runway because I didn’t pull the yoke up hard enough and long enough to effect the stall of the aircraft. After that, I concentrated on pulling the yoke and not allowing the aircraft to keep flying. I learned from that embarrassing landing to go on to countless successful landings AND I’m still here! You will do so too!

@dereksbryan 2 года назад

It is so great that you get to share this with everyone, and brave too. Don't be put off by making mistakes, they are so important to learning about flying. Part of the early flight training is intended for you to make mistakes, experience how the controls behave when you do, and what both your and the plane's reaction to them are. What every pilot comes to understand is that one big component of flying is feel. That is you feel within you what is happening with the plane. To get the 'feel' you repeat the same exercises, sometimes they go right, sometimes they go wrong. Your instructor will fill you in on the technical side, what you did wrong, what you did right. But it is within you to learn how to feel your control inputs and their effects. When you do everything will fall into place. You did great, and from just those first few hours, you will have gained as much insight by handling the controls, as you've got as SIC monitoring Kris. Good luck. I can't wait for the next instalment.

@iPilotFlorida 2 года назад

Kim........so glad you are taking the challange...it becomes so much easier....proud watcher....

@lucky_one2 2 года назад

Fantastic! Love listening to you talk through your concerns and issues as you gain confidence.

@drethanplasticsurgery 2 года назад

I’m impressed with your channel for posting this. The early interaction between a flight student and an instructor is very important. Preserving the confidence of the student is key, while learning at a pace fast enough for the student to remain engaged is a challenge for the instructor. Learning to fly is the gift that keeps on giving. Way to go Kim!

@BaronPilot 2 года назад

Thanks. This is the part of flight training we wanted to share. Raw and real with the hopes that it may help others realize they are not alone and it is just part of the process. If we prevent one student from quitting then the series will be worth it.

@LarryMassey 2 года назад

Great job.

@markschlegel1036 2 года назад

Kim your doing GREAT, we all started there and worked it out for us too make it work for each of us, we are all different at the beginning and learning is what makes us the pilots we are. Even Baron Pilot started where you are now.
