Takeoffs & Landings (DVD)
Approved for FAA Wings Credit click here
Polish off your skills on the two most exhilarating aspects of flying—takeoffs and landings. This video goes in depth to explore the different types of takeoffs and landings and the factors that affect their outcome. In-flight footage puts you in the cockpit for a pilot’s eye view of the different techniques and methods for smooth, safe operation. More than just crosswind techniques, this program thoroughly covers slips, crabs, no-flap landings, emergencies, and recoveries from not-so-great approaches and bounces. The section on maximum performance takeoffs and landings will show you how to safely operate from soft or short fields. State-of-the-art 3D graphics give insight into performance characteristics and help to reinforce key topics. This video will help you maintain your takeoff and landing proficiency—great for students, instructors, and experienced pilots alike. (51 min.)

General CommentsThis video is of the same great quality that I have come to expect from the crew at Sporty's. I have no doubt that you all set the bar on videos of this type and provide a great service to all different facets of aviation. I for one always look to see what comes out next to help fill in the blanks invariably left from training. |

ConsNot at all what I expected. I anticipated it would contain much more detail and information than it does. Most of the video is a rehash of what is covered in the Private Pilot course. It also does not contain nearly as much valuable information as other videos I have, but in some respects does have new and different information.
