This is the first video I’ve seen that actually explained the different airspace rather than just giving the numbers. Thanks for that.

Bravos usually go up to 10,000 MSL not AGL, small correction but could be a pretty big difference. great video to learn from for students, thanks👍

@FreePilotTraining Год назад

I appreciate that. You are right. Thanks for the correction. Denver is an exception. I think they top out at 12,000 MSL. I haven’t checked any others in A while. Thanks for the comment.

@swilson6206 Год назад

In the FAA Pilot handbook, it says that Class B, C, and D are charted to MSL altitudes. E.G. "Class C ...is generally from the surface to 4,000 feet above the airport elevation (charted in MSL). On one hand, this sounds like 4,000 feet AGL, but on the other hand, if an airport is higher than MSL, how can 4,000 feet above the airport be 4,000 ft MSL?

@lukekirk7487 Год назад

@@swilson6206 yeah man👍 so the standard for class C and D airspace go up to 4000 and 2500 feet AGL respectively, but that altitude is charted in MSL to make it easier on us pilots so you know where the airspace is. Say feild elevation at a class C airport is 800 feet, then on the chart it would say the airspace goes up to 4800 feet. Class B however typically goes up to 10,000 MSL no matter the feild elevation, with a few exceptions at high altitudes like Denver. As usual the FAA doesn’t have the best wording that makes that sounds more confusing than it has to be😂👍

@FreePilotTraining Год назад

@@swilson6206 yeah, most of them are not exactly 4,000’ MSL. Usually it ends up being closer to 4,000’ AGL

something that i would like to know is about navigation on E airspace... for example my navigation will be from a E to E aerodrome, during the fly with who my comunicantion wil be estabilished ATC? or a especific frequency for comunications like air- to -air among the manned aircrafts?

@FreePilotTraining 6 месяцев назад

The chart supplement shows you who “owns” that airspace you’re flying in. That is all explained in the lessons following. Here’s one example ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LC9-PgdDFmo.htmlsi=-p_NsAAfP2i_53ez

@richardromero8049 4 месяца назад

So how many people have used this as their ground school study and passed their tests without having to pay for anything else? Just curious

The only thing this doesn’t give you is an endorsement to take the written test. I have a plan to hopefully solve that problem in the next 6 months

@emilyjames7192 7 месяцев назад

My sectional says the B and C ceiling is MSL not AGL. Was that a mistake in the video?

@FreePilotTraining 7 месяцев назад

It’s not a mistake. The chart depicts these in MSL, but the actual airspace actually goes up from the ground a certain height above the ground (agl)

Why is class A space MSL but the others are AGL? Thank you.

@yourdonefor4454 11 месяцев назад

Hello. I'm wondering if you could help me decipher my local airports airspace. It's KAGC (Allegheny county regional airport) I see obvious class D airspace and goes to 3,800 feet. It's inside of a blob of class E airspace. But I can't seem to find where the class E airspace starts and ends unless I'm blind. It's overlapping untowered E airspace for Finleyville airpark. How would I be able to do a vfr flight out of KAGC? There's no tower for the Finleyville airpark so how would I get permission to enter their class E airspace. Sorry if it's a bother but I'm trying to start somewhere.

@FreePilotTraining 11 месяцев назад

No problem. KAGC goes up to 3,800, so the class E starts at 3,801 feet and goes up to the bottom of the class B. So, it looks like the class B in that area starts at 4,000 feet and goes up to 8,000 feet. That means the class E starts at 3,801 and goes up to 3,999 feet MSL. And you don’t need any kind of clearance to go into class E. Just keep in mind, all that airspace is in the mode c veil of Pittsburgh, so there are some equipment requirements you have to comply with.

@yourdonefor4454 11 месяцев назад

@@FreePilotTraining thank you very much this makes so much more sense now. I don't recall hearing you didn't need clearance to go in the class E airspace. That changes everything on how I see maps. I really appreciate your assistance

Imma share my story because I want your options on if I’m doing something wrong. I’m 15 and I have always known that I want to be in mechanics. I played with gas engines like my go kart (witch is homemade my family is between middle class and lower class) and my dads truck my mom’s car and just stuff like that. Then got bored and my dad works at a dairy as a maintenance man and works on diesel engines most of the time but has the occasional gas engine problem. But I got introduced to Diesel engines and then got a little board of those then my Uncle asked if I would want to go work on a helicopter with him (he is a helicopter mechanic) I said yes of course. My plan is to go to Purdue and get my plane mechanics certification and do OJT (on job training) with my Uncle. I would love if y’all could let me know of anything I could do better please don’t be afraid to say something because it might hurt my feelings I promise you that it is impossible to offend me. And you can say what you would like about my life plan. Thank you for your time.

I’ve been trying to convince so many young people your age how great it would be to get into a career like that. It’s very rewarding and it pays well. Plus, if you ever decide to fly, you can work on your own aircraft and save a ton of money. Yes, I think you’re on a great path

@hustin2323 Год назад

@@FreePilotTraining can give an example of a B C D shown in AGL and not MSL? I’ve yet to find one…

@FreePilotTraining Год назад

@@hustin2323 KDFW is an example. Let me clarify. The tops are always shown in MSL on the chart, but the approximate height of the airspace is based on AGL. For example the class B above Dallas is 11,000 MSL. That is approximately 10,000 AGL as most class B tends to top of at approximately 10,000 AGL. KTUL is another example. Class C is typically about 4,000 AGL. The field elevation at Tulsa is 678 so the top of the airspace is almost exactly 4,000 AGL because the top is at 4,700 MSL. Sorry for the confusion

@philipgledhill7227 Год назад

Hello it's hope all are well. Philip is interested in learning but struggles at taking it all in because I am dislecksick. Why can't you make it alot easier for people that's backward.why don't you design something like a dot to dot program from airport to airport with a cursor what you move following the dots. With two squares for information from the tower every fifteen minutes. And use the other square for emergencys. The first square should flash with simple instructions with a green tick when you have completed each think they have told you to do. You need to come up with something nice and easy for beginners and back ward people.hope to here from you on this question take care and thanks for your information philip.

@FreePilotTraining Год назад

I appreciate the feedback. One important part of getting your PPL is that you need to read and write WELL in English. If you’re struggling, there are a lot of instructors who feel they can not legally train you. I would recommend looking at programs that could help you with your dyslexia. Again, thanks for the comment.

Great explanation of airspace but why does your depiction have the wrong colors for different airspace? For instance, Bravo airspace is Blue not Yellow.

@TXPatriot737 8 месяцев назад

Correction: It’s Flight Level 180 (One Eight Zero) not One Eight Thousand. 17,000 is pronounced One Seven Thousand. Once you reach 18,000’, it becomes a flight level.

@FreePilotTraining 8 месяцев назад

You are correct, but ATC can clear you up to one eight thousand without assigning you to a flight level. It’s rare, but it does happen
