Commenting for the algorithm 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks!
Maybe one of the most important things I learned during IFR training (in Southern California, within the LAX Mode C) was to SLOW DOWN! Especially with a new approach, cut that speed early. It is so easy to blast on through fixes and end up way too high to continue a stabilized approach. Good to see I'm not the only one!
Yes I agree
Better a managed approach than to let the aircraft get ahead of you hello from Australia
Execute a missed approach, why take chances? A few years ago, a Mitsubishi MU-2 was approaching a Canadian airport with 7 souls on board. He was too high and too fast on his approach fixes. Instead of going around, he decided to “S-turn” to lose altitude/speed. By the time he realized his predicament, he accelerated the throttles, but it was too late. Too low and too slow. Needless to say, they didn’t make it. Ironic that the passengers were going to attend a funeral for a deceased family member.
All of your videos are so interesting, what an amazing country to fly around and help all the remote communities.
Always so enjoyable Ryan, thank you. As a Christian artist living with motor neurone disease and a longstanding interest in aviation, your channel brings joy and inspiration. God bless you and your family. Love from Rick [Dr Rick Nelms].
Lol… excellent video. Glad to know that shooting a new approach to MDA - and not getting it exactly right the first time (while still being safe) - isn’t something that only happens to me. Looking forward to the coffee table book!
Your commitment to the particulars of flying as well as constantly moving people/product from place to place in the bush in incredibly moving to me and perpetually inspiring. Thank you Ryan.
Not a pilot myself but 3/6 of the family are pilots (one is ATC). I've grown up around Cessnas and now being a young father, these videos bring back memories and now provide an amazing relaxing watch before I head to bed. I may once my kids move out down the road to go venture into obtaining my private pilot certificate one day!Outstanding videos! You appear to be living your best life doing what you love!
Go for it, brother. Don't let anything hold you back from achieving your dreams.
Do it😂! I'm 56 and in the middle of it right now
1:31 headbumb ☺
Good morning from Minnesota USA! Great episode!
Wow you don’t see weather like that in Sindeni that often. Great flight. Great drone footage :)
Everybody & Anybody can Post a Video when things go Right But, I Appreciate that you also post them when things don't go quite right & you need to "Improve"
Everyone has room for improvement
Loved this one Ryan! Frank in Colorado
360 cameras are great!! Excellent surprise thx
Nice one man. Lovely weather. Regards from South Africa.
We'll what a pilot u r amazing Ryan I've just subscribed u r such a considerate pilot With passengers had a bad flight sept 2019 young Gun NZ Pilot Took off like a F18 fighter Jet ! everyone complained uncomfortable flight & to make matters worse my daughter had only flown twice before - she was so scarred Virgin flight from Brisbane to Fiji Coming back the pilot was older such a brilliant gentle flight & he flew over Morton bay etc for us he was brilliant Ur intricate narration of ur flights astounds my family honestly ur really smart & ur parents would b so proud of u Well keep watching ur brilliant smooth flights & brilliant narration on ur life's wonder journey Thanks again for sharing Never been to Papua New Guinea but the landscape is beautiful All the Best! Jo-Anne & Winnie 👍🙏🏻
Great Video as Always. Thats Funny, Just as i selected 720P quality you said "Thats 720 on the ITT"
There was a recent incident report on a helo accident in the US of a UH-60 Blackhawk firefighting helo that ended up going down because a tablet being used for local hi-res navigation fell off it's clamp, got wedged across the pedals and the rods, trapped and locked the controls in a tight turn before breaking them so please make sure if you are flying with a tablet you secure it so it can't do that :)
Interesting
Great video as always! Good to see you stay calm, cool and collected when things don't go exactly as planned. PTL for the work your doing over there.
working on commercial sel now so the emphasis on control/ comfort with the airplane is in the forefront of my training. watching your comfort, fluidity and confidence in the airplane as if you arent single pilot in the middle of no where has been nothing short of fantastic. best wishes from texas.
A great vid, particularly liked your approach to passengers and their comfort, ❤ it!
Nice to see the horizon. Beautiful countryside with mountains. Excellent flight glitches and all. I'm learning a lot. Thanks.
Those take offs are scary. You will have a really bad day if the engine quits or loses power.
That's why you hear Ryan rehearse his Bad Day Plan™ at 4:27. Wouldn't stop it being a bad day, but best chance for it to be not the last day.
Hi Ryan, I watch and like many of your videos. What an amazing place to fly and with so many challenges. Thank you for supporting the locals and for your missionary work. All the best from Greg in Melbourne Australia.
Interesting flight! I learn a lot from you watching these videos. Your skills are impressive and you are always prepared for the unexpected. 🙏
Great Content
those drone shots are awesome , and overall great editing with lots of camera angles ..good job
Looking at what you have to do on the panel etc seems to me you have to be a technology genius as well as a pilot so way beyond me , I have been flying for 63 years and still current but learned on analogue and still with that now, do envy you that plane though.
Local QNH tried to fly me in to the mountains today on Pilot 2 ATC coming in from the other end of the valley.😅
Very entertaining. I was an air traffic controller then became a commercial pilot with twin rating. I love every bit of your videos. Stay safe.
Always enjoy flying with you Ryan. Not getting as much time in the air here because of building work so I have had to suspend my weekly flying videos but still think of your advice when I do edit. Thanks and best wishes Tim.
Thank you Ryan, that was an interesting approach. Love the idea of the coffee book. Regards…….Roger
Love that panel!! Wish I could stuff it into my Cherokee 6! Great vid, yeah starting IAF at 12,600 would have done the trick. It's nice to see actual instrument runways sometimes, lol.
Thank you Ryan for your excellent post! I also like to practice instrument approaches. I've got P3D v5 with almost the full hangar of A2A aircraft. RXP GTN 650 or 750 in everything except for the Spitfire, P-40B, and the J-3. Gotta do some more flights in PNG. Hardest thing for me is to capture the glideslope in the Civilian P-51 with the low-tech Century III autopilot and the GTN 650. Thank you again!
Cool flight , thx for sharing , regards from the French Alps
Thank you Ryan. Another excellent video. :-)
Nice video. For a bit more context on LNAV/VNAV vs LNAV + V: the major difference is LNAV/VNAV affords (guarantees) obstacle clearance, but such clearance is not guaranteed on LNAV + V. Hence, LNAV + V can have obstacles encroaching into the vertical flight path chosen by Garmin because Garmin in not checking for trees and new construction. Best to be on the lookout visually for obstacles on the LNAV + V. This is not be be confused with a visual descent point (VDP) where upon reaching a standard 3 degree descent will get you to the runway with obstacle clearance.
yes very true. I haven't found a LNAV +V that has gotten you anywhere close to terrain though, at least here in PNG
@@MissionaryBushPilotSame here (in US), but I darn sure would not like to be the first to hit something because I was not looking or to be given a brasher for busting an altitude on approach.
I couldn't imagine a system with day to day updates to cover temporary changes and trees etc. I saw a wire strike video the other day and all the data puts the wire a lot further away (due to runway changes) than it actually is. And yet no one has said a word! Could've been deadly, thankfully it wasn't. I hope I'm thinking what yall are talking about. I'm not a pilot. I like a little more error room in my life. ❤
🛩 I have been enjoying your videos! Good thing to practice that approach a few times to get everything worked out!
So true
Intresting video as alwys. Thanks.
You are doing great work 🎉
Nice work - another fantastic vid.
Thanks for your awesome videos. I hope to fly here one day too!
God bless you.. what a job and responsibility...
Enjoyed big time. Thx
I may be wrong on this, but it looks like you never had a vertical mode associated with the approach armed so there was nothing to intercept and track. Even though Garmin said LNAV+V, the only way your Stec 55X will track vertical guidance from the flight plan is via an LPV approach. Put more simply, your autopilot does not have a VNAV button to take advantage of the fact that you can load VNAV altitude constraints into the Garmin. If you wanted to reverse engineer the vertical nav, you could utilize the VNAV Direct-to softkey (maybe?) but my main point is to look at the altitude constraints with the approach, and find a point you can start descending where you can have a nice whole number for your VS (via the "current VNAV profile" box), dial that descent rate into the autopilot, and enabled VS mode right when you reach the Garmin-calculated TOD. That way you just bug your MDA, and if you refrain from using APR on the S-Tec it would level off at the MDA on its own (because that is your preselected altitude and ALTS would be armed and then activated upon reaching). Obviously if you have the runway in sight you can disconnect AP or roll the altitude bug lower to keep descending.
Yeah, good stuff. Thanks.
Thanks for another amazing video. ❤
Glad you like them!
Looking forward to the book, I will be ordering one!
And another great video! Loved it!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks.....
For me the best aviation vids in internet.
👍 thanks
Nice Flying! Great Attitude
Nice flight
Such beautiful scenery there. Would love to fly there as an experience.
try Microsoft FS 2020, its about as close as you can get
Hello Ryan. Another fantastic video! Would like to suggest if maybe in the near future, you would consider making calendars as well with PNG sites you've flown in. I would definitely purchase them and also would add to your diversity of items for sale and more selection. :) Stay safe and lots of blessings your way. P.S. Still use and enjoy having my coffee with the mug I purchased from your shop. Several years later... Still in good shape and quality is intact ;)
Yes I need to find a new supplier for them
Hey you finally got a nice day at least!
Man I am really enjoying these videos. I’m knew to your channel. I’m currently chasing my commercial rating in Southern California and a lot of your terminology is foreign to me - pun intended. I’d like a video where you break down what you are doing and saying during your preflight. Thanks and stay safe. Aaron
Very good video youtube, definitely deserving of the algorithm!
Glad you think so!
i love your videos and i always follow you
1:28 LOL .. she bonked her head 😅
Great video thanks. (are you starting to feel a little special, getting to fly a great aircraft in (mostly) beautiful weather in beautiful scenery?)
love you man
Well done; please post a video when you can of a vertically coupled approach when you can get it to work.
for sure
Yep ... If the passengers DON'T remember the flight it was a good one! When flying in the airlines for years if I walked out of the airport not remember, unless I tried, who I had been flying with ( the F/O or Capt depending where I was in my past career ) it was a good pairing as well. Ryan with you, except for your YT passengers, I am sure your passengers don't remember a lot about the trips in which you carried them ... for a good reason!
Great camera angles and loved the view over the village. But please dust your dashboard :)
Probably try to retrofit the autopilot with Garmin GFC series, maybe will sync better with the 1000 (?)
I just wonder how many pre take off briefs mention chicken’s.
More great content. Who pays for these services, is it aid agencies or the govt?
When doing my IFR rating in a cirrus with a g1000, I never shot an approach without vertical guidance using +V. I always did the step down method. You obviously have to be on your throttle game more as you level out and then re-start the descent at each fix, however, if you do use +V you still MUST carefully monitor your altitude at each fix and be ready to level off if you find the plane going below the step down altitudes. Either way, you must be ahead of the plane to level off/throttle up as required.
yes, that is true. I preferr when it actually catches the GP, especially in IMC conditions. Lowers the work load by 100%
Had the same issue with one of my approaches and the reasoning being that I did not select the APR button on the autopilot panel, and the airplane did not start it decent. The next time when I selected it, I got the GS indication on the pft top right.
that's what I thought initially, but I checked the footage, and I did everyting correct, it just didn't work like it was published with the +V option from Garmin
@@MissionaryBushPilot ok, copy that. 👌
GFC700 A/P is a great experience
Hey Ryan, I think that you might need to bug the FAF altitude and press VNV in order to +V to start working since it’s not a part of the actual published approach. At least it’s working for me every time.
Our crappy S-tec auto pilot doesn't have the VNV option on it. And on the G1000 won't let you select the FAF and turn it cyan like the others,l. In our flight Sim it works perfect
Great videos, I follow them all. I'm an instrument rated pilot in NJ. Can you explain the communications portion of the flight with ATC? What information do you typically exchange? I know it's different than the states.
We have to do a taxi call, which basically starts our flight following, then after departure to let them know we are safe off the ground, and after landing
Always enjoy watching your videos. This might sound like a crazy question, but how do you decide which aircraft you will be flying that day? I've noticed the different registration numbers and sometimes when you depart from base, I see another Kodiak on the apron looking just as "available" as the one you will be flying.
It's all dependent on hours and maintenance schedules
Thanks for the episode. It was good to see the ILS approach. You know, I have done some things that would seem important, like writing for film and television. What I found, however, was me being a good husband and father turned out, in the long run, to be far more important. Books and well-edited episodes are nice, but it is okay if you delay them because you are being a good husband and father, as well as a good pilot. 🙂
There was no ILS to be seen here ... Not every instrument approach is an ILS, this was GNSS (basically a kind of GPS/SatNav approach)
@@stewartbrown9554 thanks! :-)
good to remember in life for sure
Nice video ;-)
Nice. Would it have been better to input all that approach data before takeoff? Cheers.
Hi there Ryan , just a quick one , what App/EFB are you using ? Love the channel and videos ! Stay blessed
FlightSpan
Joined the Kodiak Simulator Training course this has been a fanstastic help for me and i glad this can support the work and videos you do !!!
awesome! glad to hear it
Whatever the locals dofor a living, they seem to be very productive at at least one thing.
Enjoy the viedos. Keep reminding everyone to comment, like & subscribe on every video.
Random question for you... When it comes to calculating the CG of the aircraft, do you know where in a particular cargo position the CG of THAT cargo is assumed to be? For example, you had some cargo in your forward pod -- where in the pod is the CG of the pod's cargo assumed to be? In the middle (fore/aft) of it? At the forward extreme of the the pod? I can imagine a situation where the cargo shifts/isn't distributed evenly and it puts you out of balance in reality despite being in balance on paper. Or are there tolerances to account for that? I hope that all makes sense, thanks!
after doing thousands of W&B calculations. I can load the plane without even running a W&B calculation if I wanted to and know pretty close where it would fall. We tie everything down really well so nothing shifts our CG out
⚠️Yikes It looks like there's nowhere to land out of Karoka if there was an engine failure ?! Great channel
Not many options
We wish you sold whole bean PNG coffee
12:58 You may need to check for some boogers on the back of your seat. hahaha.
🤣🤣🤣🤣. Omg I am dying laughing after watching that lmao
With the fuel draining due to the slope, is it possible to start using only a single tank then open the second tank once you line up?
yes it is, but our ops manual requires us to have both on for start up, in case we forget to turn it on before takeoff
Were the villages affected during the covad times?
Yes,
What?!? I'm not the only one to get behind the airplane?
I'm curious as to how long it would have taken those 2 passengers to get Goroka (spelling ?) on foot or on an animal? Beautiful country there. Reminds me somewhat of Honduras (went there 5 different years on mission trips).
Probably 2 day hike to the nearest road
Did I hear that right, during you pretake off brief, If you loose an engine just airborne you would put your flaps to zero?
yes, in the Kodiak, you can glide farther with no flaps
@@MissionaryBushPilot I learn something every day ! Many thanks for the info. B777 does the same from 30 to 25 flap as they found out in LHR a few years ago, when both engines quit!
I've heard that you have to catch the glideslope from underneath or it won't register. (Not a real pilot).
that's half way correct. it will catch the glideslope if your are at the altitude or below. I was at, but since this video, I've tried at, and under, and it's not even giving the GP option when I connect
Are the passenger kgs including the seats, since you fly mostly without them?
The seats weigh 12.5kg each, so when we take them out, that lowers out empty weight of the plane, so we can take more cargo
Is ADS-B practiced in that region of the world?
You’ll have to revert to VS mode and control the path yourself then if the V isn’t doing it….
Yup, that's what I had to do, and it's a lot of extra work
@@MissionaryBushPilot sure is. We are made to do that in the Simulator on 2 D RNAV approaches in the 737, even if VNAV is available and would work.
I won't promise you anything, but what is that at these places that the big companies are not supplying? Like a want and not need? Thanks
I don't understand your question
@@MissionaryBushPilot you work for a company that brings things to these areas. These things are paid by whom? ( Don't need to know by whom). My question is, can we buy or create a go funding to buy other things that nobody else is buying to make their life easy. ( You know the saying when you are buy something "Need vs Want". Maybe we can do something to buy the wants. (Games, portable pools, bicycles, TV short wave radios, walki talkies, a/c or fans etc.
Curious, what type of drone do you use?
Mavic air 2
Nice, I just recently got A good deal on the mini 2. So far so good. lol as close as I’ll ever get to being A pilot. It certainly is A good hobby unless the near by airspace is restricted.
I assume the plane is pressurized; is it?
Hi
What app are you using for W&B ?
sombody no were is thi butifol place
One thought, earlier you said 35L for approach. He came back and said 35R. You landed 35R. Did you have the correct approach in the box?
there is only the approach for 35 left, he just made an approach for 35 left with a visual step over to 35 right
@@louissikkema5399 yeah fair enough, it was just a thought as to why his A/P wasn’t flying the approach, besides the local QNH setting error. I’m not familiar with the PNG approaches so was just voicing a thought.
yes that's correct
