Kenny Keller explains why the jump from private to commercial flying is steeper than pilots expect. Private pilots can land anywhere and stop short; commercial pilots must select clear areas, point into wind, and go immediately. Examiners during check rides push candidates to drop private habits and think like professionals.
So commercial pilot, are you going to take off from here? You're going to go all the way out there to the Runway?
We'll just come here. Come again, ground effect. And we'll just depart to the west.
When you're going from private to commercial, you know, private. We keep you square. Stop here, taxiway Runway. It's commercial time. Nice clear area, point in the wind, and away you go.
Yep. So we said there were three four zero at eight, so.
And our examiners even said that with guys on their commercials he's like, well, are you a private pilot or are you gonna.
And he does because are you gonna.
Be a commercial pilot now?
He did that on my commercial check ride so no one else I'll be gauging everywhere. Get on field. Clear for the boat. FORSOIL TRAFFIC HELICOPTER November 181, Mike Bravo is at the northeast hangars. Be departing area to the northwest and then entering right traffic for 3, 6 forsall.
