Yes I really am that sad

Whenever I’m depressed, pissed off at work or just need some inspiration I go to this YouTube video



Even before I started on my PPL quest, I've always loved this song.
Enjoy

  1. Here's how nerdy I am. I figured out what is being said over the radio during the instrumental break. Listen carefully and it makes sense.

    Throttle Friction Lock - Set
    Mixtures - Rich
    Propellers - Fully Forward
    Flaps - Set 10 degrees
    Engine gauges and suction - check
    Engine mix set to maximum percent - recheck
    Flight instruments
    Altimeters - check both
    Beacon and Navigation Lights - on
    Pitot heater - on
    Strobes - on
    "Confirm 38E ready for departure"
    "Hello again this is 129 decimal 4"
    "1294, its to go"
    "You are cleared for take off, winds north at 10 knots"

    The rest they are talking over the top of each other and its a bit hard to make sense out of it but its all about feeding in the power gradually and keeping her (the plane) steady...

    1. Good grief man are you stalking my old posts ? !!!

      Very impressive !

      I lost count of how many times I listened to that song, especially after a bad lesson, to persuade myself to go on
