Join me as I demonstrate steep turns! Key elements here are to complete clearing turns before the maneuver, roll into a steep bank and use a good bit of trim to allow for handsoff flight. Track your nose on the horizon and keep an eye on your vertical speed. Anticipate the roll out by 1/2 the bank angle and reengage on the other side.

If you start to lose altitude, relax your bank angle, get back on the horizon, and get back into the steep turn. Aim small, miss small. Accept no deviation from your altitude and position on the horizon!

Remember to release that trim once you're back on your heading, and anticipate that bump when you hit your own wake turbulence!

About me:

Because the cost of flight training is so high, I want to make as many free ground school videos as possible to support student pilots in their journey to earning their wings. Whether you are a student pilot just getting started, an F16 fighter pilot on your nth rotation, or just someone who likes talking about airplanes, I hope you will feel welcome as we explore the skies together.

I am a Flight Instructor, Instrument and Advanced Ground Instructor, commercial pilot, and US Army Veteran. I have a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Washington, and I love talking about airplanes, science, and leadership.
