Hey Josh, back in the mid 70's I was a Navy T-28 instructor teaching basic aerobatics. This is great stuff that every private pilot should get exposed to so that they can get comfortable recovering an aircraft from any unusual attitude. Of course the T-28 doesn't compare in any way to an Extra. Typical of WWII era airplanes, no snap maneuvers, and the roll rate was a sedate 180 degrees per second. One thing that is cool about T-28 controls is that there is a bobweight in the elevator control system which assists the pilot in high g maneuvers by unloading the back stick force so that it doesn't require a lot of stick effort to pull g's. For example, you could do 60 degree banked 2g turn using just 2 fingers and thumb on the stick, and not an armful of force to pull those g's. We taught basic aerobatics; loops, aileron rolls, wingovers, 1/2 Cuban eights; and my favorite, the barrel roll. The barrel roll is a sedate maneuver which if done correctly, is a 1 g maneuver. I also did an *unauthorized* maneuver just because; a one-quarter clover leaf which involved a pull up to the vertical with a quarter roll on the up-line; then a split S off the top to recover. Put 4 of those together and you have a vertical clover leaf. I had one student stall the airplane inverted at the top of a loop one day--he pulled too many g's on the entry which bled off too much speed, and just ran out of flying speed at the top upside down. That totally disoriented him but the beauty of the T-28 was that it was totally predictable and docile--just let the nose fall through, regain flying speed, level the wings, and pull up. I got my fill of aerobatics back then but it's training and experience that every private pilot should endeavor to put in his logbook.
Thanks so much for sharing your story! That’s awesome - a vertical cloverleaf sounds fun 😎
Loved the 'documentary' feel of this video
Josh, that was truly a great flight. I agree with your assessment of your instructor. He was very thorough without the ego showing through. I thought you did very well for a first timer. Can't wait to see Chelsea doing this same flight.
He’s really “on it” with everything. There was never a moment where I felt unclear on what were going to do, thanks to his super clear briefings
You can hear the smile in his voice the whole time. This man truly loves teaching what he does!
Paulo was one of my first professors for the Aerospace Engineering degree here in Brazil. A really inspiring guy. Love to see a professor of mine and my favorite av youtuber. That was great, Josh
Wow! Professor Paulo Iscold is a tremendous engineer! I don't know if he told you but he had designed the fastest piston single engine in the world, Anaquim, within a univeristy here in Brazil! I was not his student, but I did read and learned from his books about aircraft loads design, and his life story is awesome! I was thrilled when I saw that you, Josh, got to meet him and made an amazing film!
Seems like high quality instruction.
I remember a coach (not even a flying coach) saying “laugh at it.”…… That made my line drills easy. That made my double downs worth it. That made my crawls not only bearable but memorable. That made my dead sprints meaningful. That made roller coasters into stepping stones. That made aerobatic maneuvers something to look forward to. He always said, “if you can trick your body into laughing at adversity, everything becomes a joy ride.” ……. He wasn’t a pilot. But dang if it didn’t carry over…
I’m an aerospace engineer learning to fly and can safely say that just because you can design a plane doesn’t mean you can fly one! Having the ability to think like a pilot in the cockpit and not overcomplicate things as an engineer is a challenge sometimes. I’m learning! Love your videos Josh, super professional.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing that. I appreciate your support. 🫡
Flight Chops got addicted also!!
Great instructor, really fun to watch and enjoy! One of my favorite video's. Maybe you can make a little series out of it, because somebody like Paulo who masters the theory and practise in that proficiany might can give good tips for safer flying.
Excellent Flight! Love the analytical device used in this flight. Great teaching tool.
I can’t get enough of these videos.
That guy is a great instructor!
Good morning from Minnesota! Fantastic episode!
Doing aerobatics is probably the time where I have the most fun in aircraft. I really want to get better at it. Paulo is an amazing instructor and you can really tell he has the passion. The thing about skidding and slipping during a stall is important knowledge every pilot should know and it was beautifully demonstrated here. It was so clear to see that the wing on the side of which the rudder is being stepped on will drop first. Cool flight.
That is a an amazingly useful teaching tool for debrief. Thats super super cool
Jak zwykle niesamowity film, przyjacielu, dziękuję za udostępnienie, miłego dnia!
Love his instruction technique - a model for other all instructors. Cheers.
Fantastic video! Love Paulo’s briefing.
Thanks for linking us up Brian! 🤙🏼
What a great video. He was a fantastic teacher, thanks Josh!
Wow.. what an awesome video. Brilliant instruction from Paulo. Easy enough for the average person to understand. Thanks for taking us along.
I got to fly with a stunt pilot once, years ago. It's such a memorable experience! Excellent video!
Awesome!
Aerobatics is one of the things I enjoy most about GA. Glad you got to pull as hard as you wanted. The first time you drop into an aerobatic box, it'll be up there near your first solo in terms of memories. "Seatbelts, G meter, Doors and windows!"
I can imagine!
Fantastic video ! Very well done
That was maybe my favorite video that you've made. It reminds me of the first time I was ever in an airplane. I had a friend who did aerobatics in a Pitts Biplane and he took me up and did a ton of stunts until my body couldn't take anymore. It was such an amazing and unforgettable experience. Thanks for sharing that.
Good going Josh.thanks for sharing. Wishing many blessings your way.
very nice! when I experienced aerobatic maneuvers, my favs were both the avalanch and the Hammerhead!! thanks for the video...I was back in the seat...lol
Always slipping never skidding is a great concept.
That guy is very smart
That was awesome !!!
This is great content, thank you!
Great video!
This is a great video Josh! I agree with your, and others, assessment of the instructor. He'd be fun to fly with and learn from.
Looking forward to getting the Acrowrx device - I'm sure it will help me fly better! Great video!
Awesome video!
G,day from Sydney Australia. Flying vertical *'Get the plane flying before recovery, or you'll just keep stalling'. Tuffs on the wings or is there an airspeed v1 for that plane. * G forces applied to the plane (manufacturers rating or FAA specified) * Sufficient altitude for aerobatic manoeuvres (very important)🙃🇦🇺
I said hi as you got in the plane. Glad to see you at KSBP and KSMX. Paulo is awesome
Oh wow, that was nice. Boa, parabens.
I’m an alumni of the Cal Poly Aerospace Engineering program. Great school! Always were doing great things. Great story.
Awesome!
Excellent🇬🇧
Wow! Thanks for the great flight ! Truly educational for a non-flyer !
He explained everything so nicely. 👌🏼
Did my spin endorsement from the Back of a Great Lakes... Stalled it while inverted, the ONLY time I got scared in the air. SUCH valuable training... Builds the confidence that we can recover from upsets and unusual attitudes...
Oh yes, that’s a unique situation!
Ahhh what a great video!
Really good video, good idea YT! Keep rolling!
Excellent video Josh! Loved all of it! I cannot wait to see some more cool aerobatic stuff and I’d definitely do some aerobatic stuff! Love it! Cheers 🥂 Fly Safe my friend!
Thanks Caleb!
Awesome! Need to do this at some point when I’m a little bit around 500-600 hours or so :)
Josh that was pretty cool man. Thanks for sharing that.
It was super fun, and super great explanations.
You were right down the street from my office in San Luis Obispo. 😊
Josh, What was great about your video was Paulo and his explanations and instruction. About anyone could understand. I'm an old pilot flying about 60 years, 3,000 hours, and you can fly. You are a Good stick. Where does Paulo teach, Cal State SLO?
He teaches at Cal Poly in SLO!
Hey good to see you man. Thought you were hibernating!
Hey Josh ! ! Good to see you. Upside down or nightside up.
Hey Josh, how do you deal with air sickness in general? Obviously this was pushing your limits, but in general flight, do you have any tips/tricks for managing it? No coffee, etc?
Scratch the Cessna 337. Buy the Extra. Even when I was flying a Citabria, going back to the Cessna was a bit dull. Nice video.
An extra would be awesome!
In Mexico they do aerobatics with Cessnas 🤣
It seems a long time ago, I have missed ya’ll
As much as I'd love to learn some acro I don't think I can handle it. :(
Why do some KZheadrs think that playing annoying music when we’re trying to listen to the conversation is a good thing?
Because it’s THEIR channel
