Send us a Text Message.I have always said that the PAVE acronym is the acronym to rule all other acronyms! It doesn't get nearly the credit it deserves, so today I breakdown how I use the PAVE acronym and show you just how useful it can be!Support the Show.Youtube: www.youtube.com/northwestaeronautInstagram: @northwest_aeronautTikTok: nw_aeronautWebsite: www.northwestaeronautics.com Music - Epidemic Sound: Go Higher - FLYIN Vegas - Onda Norte
Send us a Text Message.In our final edition of our ACS breakdown for your private pilot oral exam, we are discussing task H, Human Factors. Human factors are one of the most overlooked subjects in training, yet there is a lot to know and consider when evaluating our own airworthiness and fitness to fly. Hopefully after listening to this episode, you'll have a much greater understanding of what we truly need to be attentive to when evaluating ourselves and how to more effectively flight plan t...
Send us a Text Message.Today we're discussing aircraft SYSTEMS! This is one of the most overlooked and misunderstood subjects in pilot training, but with a little explanation, I think you'll find it's a lot simpler than you might have initially thought.

Send us a Text Message.Performance and limitations is one of the hardest things student pilots tend to struggle with in their initial training. Reading the charts themselves can be challenging enough, but today we are going to dive in to the details that all too often get overlooked completely in this portion of private pilot training.

Send us a Text Message.The National Airspace System (NAS) is one of the most complex systems a pilot needs to learn and be aware of. Both student pilots and seasoned pilots alike often find confusion when it comes to keeping track of all the different types of airspace and the limitations associated with those airspaces. Join us today as we go over all these details so you don't bust the bravo, and pass this portion of your oral exam with flying colors.Support the Show.Youtube: www.youtube.co...
Send us a Text Message.This week we have a little bit longer of an episode but that's simply because there is SO much to cover in VFR Cross country flight planning!

Send us a Text Message.Weather is by far the one subject that all pilots tend to be delinquent in with their knowledge and understanding. Everyone from Private pilots to ATPs have trouble truly grasping weather theory and application to your flight planning. While there is certainly a lot more to talk about, we will start here to today by breaking down the things you need to know for your private pilot check ride when it comes weather!Support the Show.Youtube: www.youtube.com/northwestaeronau...

Send us a Text Message.This has been a busy Summer and I've done A LOT of pre-solo checks for student pilots lately. Throughout all these flights, I've seen some patterns developing in the deficiencies these pilots have which really shouldn't be the case for pilots getting ready to fly solo. Join me today as we discuss the things students should know and be able to do prior to their first solo.Support the Show.Youtube: www.youtube.com/northwestaeronautInstagram: @northwest_aeronautTikTok: nw_...
Send us a Text Message.Today we are talking with a former student of mine - Ted. Ted was my first Sport pilot student and never thought that aviation would have as large of an impact on his life as it has ended up having. We talk with Ted about his journey as a Sport pilot, and the challenges he's faced along the way.

Send us a Text Message.There has been a lot of talk about the 70/50 rule lately and people questioning it's merit. While I do think there is a place for the 70/50 rule in our pre-takeoff briefings, it is not a situation which should arise often and there are many other factors that need to be considered when doing a proper briefing. Today we dive into the departure and abort plan briefings and all the things YOU need to consider to make safe decisions. Support the Show.Youtube: www.youtu...
Send us a Text Message.I was recently debriefing some pre-solo and mock check ride flights with students and many of them expressed that they had never heard of these acronyms. So I thought it would be helpful to talk about these commonly used acronyms and hopefully they can be incorporated into your own flight training procedures!Support the Show.Youtube: www.youtube.com/northwestaeronautInstagram: @northwest_aeronautTikTok: nw_aeronautWebsite: www.northwestaeronautics.com Music - Epidemic S...
Send us a Text Message.Learning to land is one of the hardest things in flight training. This process is often made more difficult when flight instructors rush into it without establishing the proper baseline fundamentals beforehand. Today I discuss the steps I take BEFORE I ever get to teaching a student how to land, and how I go about the process once a student does get there in their training.

Send us a Text Message.Welcome to the new "On Centerline" podcast! Today I wanted to introduce myself and give you a little history on my background. I also wanted to talk about how I did all my flight training from private to MEI for $40,000 and how YOU can help overcome the financial burdens of flight training. This podcast is going focus on flight training and the challenges involved by talking to students and CFIs alike! We are going to talk with real people and hear their stories about t...
