In this episode I flip the “fun switch” and Luke gets me familiarized with the nuances of flying the full envelope of the RV-14, and we learn how to recover from mistakes when pushing the limits. This airplane checks off a lot of boxes - it is a great IFR platform, but also being capable of aerobatics and tailwheel configured was a bit part of the appeal.

Flying Below Stall Speed, a FIVE turn spin, and more great training!

In this episode I flip the “fun switch” and Luke gets me familiarized with the nuances of flying the full envelope of the RV-14, and we learn how to recover from #Mistakes when pushing the limits.

I am proud to be a member of the Canadian Aviation Museum (formerly CH2A). They are a not-for-profit organization that anybody can visit, and (almost) any pilot can join and fly the planes. Please consider sharing their link, visiting the museum in Windsor, and/or sending a small donation to help them keep our historic warbirds flying! https://www.canadianaviationmuseum.ca/

Flight Chops Disclaimer

I am a “weekend warrior” private pilot, I fly for fun with no intentions of going commercial. I have had my PPL for over 15 years, but still consider each flight a learning experience – I generally take detailed notes after each flight to remind myself what went well or what I could do to improve…. Having the GoPro cameras to record flights like this is invaluable. I find these self analysis videos very helpful in my constant quest to improve, and am happy to share.

Feedback is invited; however, please keep it positive.
