Mountain Weaher course saved my life
I fly on the east coast but do cross the Appalachians regularly. I never considered them mountains and never experienced more than an occasional chopped. I took the course just to keep learning. The other day the flight was CAVU and perfect except the wind was unusually perpendicular to the mountains at 60 kts at 12,000' and I was worried about mountain waves but never thought they occured over the Appalachians. At the southern edge of the mountain range with the peaks at only 4000' and me at 14,000' (I climbed thinking about turbulence) I sudden and smoothly began descending at 800 ft/min. After being startled I knew I was in a wave, adjusted power and pitch and within a minute I was out of it but descended 1000'. As an East Coast flier I thought this was only a West Coast event. Anyway, if it wasn't for the course I wouldn't have even thought about a wave on a beautiful flying day and would not have so confidently managed it. So thanks Colin and the BoldMethod.
Iron sharpens iron
Thanks to everyone doing their due diligence in making aviation knowledge the new common knowledge. I believe if we do have more pilots in the world the future will be bright for common air commute. #flyingcars
VFR Charts
Great presentation and real easy to learn from. Great refresher for a airline pilot to get back to basic VFR flying!
Great Redreasher
This is awesome if you are learning or if you just need a refresher. Wow nice.
Cumbersome!
There’s no doubt very good content in the course segments in this app. But it wasn’t particularly what I was looking for as a help in making better landings. And, I found the app layout to be maddeningly cumbersome and confusing with regards to progressing through the course. It would back up to a segment that had previously completed and I had a hard and frustrating time moving to the segment. Or, I couldn’t complete a segment and move to the next lesson. It would take me back to previous lessons after I hit the finish button. It was frustrating! I’ve been using Apple products for nearly 50 years so I’m not a complete amateur with programs and apps.
Mountain weather course.
I have found this course content to be concise and well presented. The real world applications are easy to understand and made me feel well prepared for evaluating mountain weather scenarios.
Y I bought Bold Method
Collin, Bold Method was recommended to me by a CFI. I am using the Airspace course to study for a retest for my CFI to correct a deficiency in Airspace. Hope this helps you.
