Good handling. Good airmanship.
Would you like a go in the PA38 with me?

Perhaps you should stick with raising corn, sundog47. I see nothing illegal, over-the-top, bad, foolhardy or immature with this pilot’s maneuvering. I may not be a pilot but I have been heavily involved in aviation since 7 years old and have done enough right-seat flying to know you’re all wet.
Nice flying. I’d …
Nice flying. I’d hire you. lol

what are you retarded. This maneuver is completely safe an completely intention it is also a required practice to get you pilots certificate. If you dont know what your talking about dont talk

The Cessna stall warning horn is a one of the LEAST popular ring tones for cell phones. ;->
This was very …
This was very skillfull handling and an excellent training aid. To those that may not be aware, stalls and spins are a crucial element of training a pilot to be knowledgeable and safe. It is only dangerous when not practiced and recovery is not second nature.
And references to ” …
And references to “experience” and “age” demonstrates that an individual probably has nothing else on his side…like talent, ability, etc.
Skillful handling, …
Skillful handling, I say.

sundog your retarded.
that isnt a populated area. It has fields and trees below him.
He is above a non congested area…no large citys.
stalls in a controled state are NOT a big deal in the first place.
5000 Feet in the …
5000 Feet in the middle of nowhere Minnesota is hardly over a populated area and stalls are hardly aerobatic. So WTF are you talking about. It is obvious the video poster is a far better pilot than you would ever hope to be.

I fly crappy airplanes.

THat stall warning horn must be a right bummer. At least in the aircraft I’ve done it in the stall warning was just a pleasent ‘beep beep beep’ sound

Over a populated area ?? I see by your profile that your 20 and that explains a lot, like not being smart enough to know better than tempting fate. Exuberance will teach you how to live, Experience will teach you why…

Oh my gawd not the oscilations of death!!! 😉

“umm…I think I broke the stall warning” ROFL its probely not a bad thing if u break that…

wtf are you talking about? The purpose of this video was to demonstrate that you cannot spin from a SLIP in a 172.

Thats what happend when you stall a well designed aircraft. My aircraft of choice. But the seemingly increasing base price is a deterrent for most pilots.

nice video. take no notice of the shock cooling theory. lots of training aircraft seem to get to TBO ok.

This one made me smile real big. I remember all of this training almost like it was yesterday, now. Eielson AFB’s trainers were a 172SP (the one I used most, N354FW), and an old 1967 172F, N2553F.
What made my training the most fun was my instructor, Clay, whose “normal” job was a bush pilot, there in Alaska. And a smart-alecky one! Best trainer I could have had!

I fly the C172S, and the Stall Warning horn has not become any less annoying. I had to turn the sound off!
A runup was done. …
A runup was done. This was a controlled airport so after the runup I taxied to the hold short line pending takeoff clearance. The video started when the takeoff clearance was received. That airplane (most 172s) does not have a CHT gauge. Oil temperature and oil pressure is all you have. They are verified during the runup and the takeoff run once full power is applied.
I remember when I …
I remember when I first did Slowflight and my first stall, I was nervous but once I did it, it was really nothing. I fly the 172R and I remember when I first heard that stall horn whining in slowflight I was thinking “OH !” but I held it above stall in the 360 turns.
Hey man, ive almost …
Hey man, ive almost finished my PPL. Nice Video and nice touch and go!
Happy Safe Flying dude.
I suppose he’s …
I suppose he’s referring to the fact that all the video depicts is you taxiing out and hauling off into the blue without making sure your CHT and oil temp is sufficient.
