Highest Power to Weight Ratio I’ve ever Flown! Proudly associated with ForeFlight: https://www.foreflight.com/flightchops In this episode we’re doing some advanced #FlightTraining with Jared #Flying the Pitts Model-12 from Gambit Aviation! Not only do I learn to land it blind from the back / PIC seat, but we also cover energy management, exploring the Incredible Kinetic VS Potential energy this thing generates. It's a cool throwback to a super early video where I was dialling in what "Flight Chops" ultimately became: Sharing a very diverse collection of aviation training and experiences - and we're flying with Jared again for the first time since 2015!  They’ve got the only Extra 330LX currently available for solo rental - That doesn't exist anywhere else on the the planet (that we know of) :) To learn more about how you can fly here, visit: https://flygambit.com/ Previous 2015 #Aerobatic episodes with Jared if you missed them: https://youtu.be/7OJ_LJ3dqnw https://youtu.be/glXLhah8AUA Productions like this wouldn't be possible without the help and support of my Patron’s.

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 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. Visit https://www.FlightChops.com/ for behind-the-scenes content, epic giveaways and to search episodes by aircraft type!
