Why Free?

We want to get the word of Angle of Attack out there because we are THE source for flight simulation training.

All we ask in return is that you share this video if you like it.

Please comment or ask a question! We would love to hear from you.

Hi Chris,

This is a great topic to talk about mainly in the real world of flying, but if people fly online they also need to take these “tips” to heart, there is NO excuse not to, for instance, look left or right before you make a turn while on the ground or in the air, its one of the many things my instructor said to me on my first lesson, as you said, you need to think ahead of the plane at all times, this cannot be emphasized enough.

Throttle on.

I’m having a hard time finding it. What was I referring to?

you were referring to a blog about that pilot talking about forgetting to get his landing clearance about 8 min in the movie

Oh! Yes! http://flywithjoe.com/

Keep in mind this guy is an awesome professional, and my point was that moments of bad memory happen to even great pilots.

Thanks for the link. I’ve been looking for new podcasts about aviation, and real world experience.

BTW, thank you for your excellent work, I’m still going through Aviator90, but I’ve been a customer with the Level-D 767 Training video from a couple years back, and I enjoy your work a lot.
You add a whole new perspective to Flight simulation that has been missing before. I’ve always tried to bring real life procedures to FS, as I find it makes the whole experience a lot more enjoyable. Even with my measly 9 hours on a C172, I can apply a lot of your training to FS to help me better understand various procedures, in the hope that one day, I’ll be able to go back and finish my PPL.

Keep the good work!
