Student Pilot's Worst Nightmare! - ACTUAL EMERGENCY - The Road To PIC Episode 3

One thing we know for sure, he definitely got lucky that night.

As someone who is just learning to fly, I can tell this girl is going to be a great pilot because of her great instructor. This kid is a great pilot and a great instructor and because of that she's going to come out of this training with all the tools she'll ever need.

I’d be interested to know whether the mechanic who checked the engine after this flight could identify what caused the failure.

This is a good instructor.

Compared to some of the instructors shown on Pilot debrief who were very impatient and were not that interested in instructing, but in getting their log time in.

Great instructor

So what was wrong with the engine? What happened?

Isn't it amazing how when people's lives are in jeopardy, they know who to call out to and or thank: Jesus. He is mighty to save! Whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved. (Acts 2:21)

Fantastic mate well done you did amazingly well

👍 Handled that situation like a boss. 👊

These videos are getting me the urge to go tske a few pilot classes. Looks amazing

By the sudden engine shaking and sound, it look like a cylinder missfire. What was the issue with the engine? Amazing recovery and i am happy for both of you :)

This girl is very lucky! I don’t think that should be something that happens to everyone… She’s lucky she had this instructor and that she’s alive!

100. I hope all student/ instructor were in harmony like that. Great job to both!

What differentiates the pilots actions in the emergency there from the impossible turn?

What a beautiful couple. Great job in maneuvering the plane. Take her to dinner . God bless Jesus.

those lil fickle beech crafts and Cessna single engines are temperamental ..we all know that
why are they so surprised?

what is the instructor like 19? What a JOKE this world is. Letting this KID fly

I think your giving yourself a hard time yes your first emergency but you smashed it young man smashed it

Bravo !!!

"Thank you Jesus!" indeed

What was the issue with the plane, actually?

Awesome job. Both of you did very well.

I woulda been out the window with my parachute!

How long has she been your instructor? do you have to wait till you are 21 to get your license?

BTW---SHE was great too...immediate realization there was a problem, immediately verbally acknowledged the controls were his, didn't panic ....she will make a gre3at pilot I think

GREAT job!!! It also looked like he kept the nose up as long as he could after touchdown to bleed off speed....just Awesome

What can we say? Perfection doesn't exist, but this was a spot on perfect reaction to an emergency situation. You kept your cool and that is the basics to handle such situations!

Maximum human performance, amazing to see.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very nicely done, Baron Pilot! Definitely earned a subscription! 👍

Fabulous job. Calm. Relied on your training and instincts and flat out nailed it. Proud of you and I don't even know you. Always wanted to learn to fly and if I could, you would absolutely be my only choice for an instructor !

Immagine to have a hibrid motor with battery only for emergency i the combustion engine Fail !

Great job, instructor and student both. I was just watching another video where a condecending instructor seemed to do nothing but berate his student and both ended up getting killed in a storm they should never have flown into. You handeled this professionally and remained calm through out the ordeal.

You both did great.

"Thank you Jesus!" Amen! Love it!!

That girl should never fly…. Look at the panic she did at the first emergency…. Raises her hands and gives up!

SHE WAS SHAKING. panic is the enemy

Man!!! He should be teaching CFI’s

They lost a cylinder. This engine was a four-cylinder aircraft engine but then, for some reason they lost a cylinder because a exhaust valve was stuck open or something. Please correct me if I’m wrong. No hate on me.

Bigger take-away…. So what was wrong with the plane?

Incredible young man!

The real human factors bit. Is You don't know. Until it happens you won't know.I like to think I know because i've been in earthquakes and other disasters. I still froze when I was landing a PA-18 on my first flight and on short final the Instructor handed me the controls. I think he was hammering into me hard, that I was a noob Who thought too much of himself.

Matt the steely eyed missile man. Well Done! Both in the emergency and your instructional style.

GREAT JOB!!!

respect for both of you. hat off, perfect landing.!

The stall input on the rudder.......which ever wing runs out of air first then opposite rudder regain airspeed and hug the yoke.

guy looks so young to be a flight instructor

I know I'm an old fart, but that instructor looks about 15 years old to me. LOL Also, he never "Thanked Jesus" for killing the engine in the first place, did he?

Looks like this "kid" did a great job. I don;t even fly, but if I did I'd want him teaching me.

Incredible flying, i wonder who the instructors instructor was?

what was the cause of the rough engine? From seeing what was going on it appeared to be a “stuck open exhaust valve”, which I have had 3 of those in 4700 hours TT.
