Thinking of becoming a pilot?

Cessna's have those performance charts, but A LOT of AC do not (I'm looking at your, Piper).

Your videos are awesome, the slow pace was perfect for me to follow along with while planning my first cross country
Thanks for uploading

I’m 2 lessons into flight planning… I hate it. lol I know it isn’t actually complicated but my brain doesn’t work this way unfortunately:(

I have watched 2 or 3 dozen videos. You broke this down very easy. Thank you.

Could we use predicted groundspeed for TOC to predict distance traveled? Wouldnt that be better than having a "no wind" distance prediction?

The lesson has been quiet impressive and it has helped me a lot and I'm kindly requesting you to come up with more lessons about flight planning.

Afterall when we are in the cockpit and flying, we are not looking at a TAS indicator, but rather a KIAS indicator. My take is that if we are at a pressure altitude of 5500', then our KIAS of say 100KIAS would actually be rendering an approx TAS of 111 TAS, assuming we are flying in standard temperature conditions? So if we waned to achieve a TAS of 111 at 5500' Pressure altitude, we'd fly at 100KIAS Anybody want to comment?

Great videos! Where can I get the navigation log?

what is "Standard Temperature?"

Thank Mrs. Hollman. Your teaching videos are amazing. As you may know, they mean a lot for the pilots-to-be community
