REAL LIFE Power On Stalls

Meghann (post solo student pilot) recovers from a variety of power-on stalls. We go beyond the ACS on this lesson

The instructor is very good. He explains the principles well and puts the scenarios in the context of real life situations. The student will surely master that POS recovery with his help. 😄

The best instructor is one that's confident enough to know that he/she can get you out of anything you put yourself into. That's how you learn.

Personally I would have trim the plane to hands off at 75kts then bring in full power the plane will then climb at the trim speed without any pressure of the yolk. Then pull back firm until it stalls, just drop the nose don't touch the power stop the wing drop with rudder.

She it trying to pull back with more force that she would have in a normal TO that was trim for TO speed.

I did like the turn around and and stall the plane.

This instructor is REALLY good. My mother used to teach Gliding (Sail Plane flying) and she had the same temperament and style. Very calm with the students (as I was told many years later) helped them understand that the most important thing was to understand what the craft was doing and how to react to the situation calmly but quickly while assessing multiple conditions. If I ever took up power flying, I would want this guy to be my instructor. He explains, so well and is very non judging through the learning curve.

This comment is a bit late, but I needed to comment here. This is absolutely phenomenal instruction. I'm a low-ish time instructor, and this guy is what I strive to be. Encouraging, insightful, and extremely patient and calm. I applaud this man, and hope this student understands how lucky she is.

Going thru this right now. It's interesting how you can tell yourself 100 times to "Control the yaw with your feet", the moment it happens, your first reaction as an inexperienced pilot is to "recover with ailerons". You're so used to driving cars. Damn you cars...
😂. Great job Student and Instructor.

I really like this guy's teaching style but I can't say I agree that power idle is a good reflex to build for every power on stall. If you aren't in a spin, seems like you risk making matters worse by killing the power.

She damn near could have induced a spin with that right aileron input.

What a CFI 👏! Congrats for that lessons! useful information to every pilot.

This was honestly very helpful and amazing, I find everything coming natural to me except letting loose and telling my plane to stall. The single video showing exactly what I've hit and how to recover from it has been nothing short of instrumental in my path going forward as a pilot. Thank you so much for posting this video!

Holy crap my pants....I just did my first hour of flight yesterday and YouTube in its algorithm glory, brought me to this. My only reassurance is that the instructor went up there with her to do this.

Great instruction. I’d like to see her eyes outside during the setup and entry to the maneuver a lot more than is evident from the video - she’s staring hard at those instruments a she’s slowing the plane. The real world distraction stuff is great.

Been there and done that on a biannual flight. Had been studying the wrong way to recover from the stall. Very happy to have had a good instructor with me.😅

[redfire]

Great video, I love that last pull. My favorite part was when she asked to try it again. I'll bet she became an excellent pilot.

[johnbennett]

Very good instructor and a good disposition student awesome

[WalterBoring]

What a great instructor. Reminds me of mine years ago. Very good demeanor and skills working with the student makes all the difference!

[jarrettdavis]

Very real maneuvers. I like the lean recovery. Pretty sure I did the same a few days ago as well Meghan. Train for reality and not just the ACS.

[cuttingconversations]

Now THIS is training. Not hypothesizing or conceptualizing. Training!

[olivieraleman]

Great video, competence is so satisfying, my dad was a pilot

[AwesomeAngryBiker]

It almost feels like you're in the plane the way the camera is angled. Excellent video
