It's nice to see you putting together a video and passing on your knowledge.  It's neat to share something, and then see it continued to be shared by someone else in turn.

Thanks for the credit; I really don't think it's necessary, but cool to see!

Very nice!  I prefer describing energy as kinetic (airspeed) and potential (altitude).  You also may want to go into the 'why' on not being nose low at the merge and explain the turning egg due to gravity.

I expect it's easier for people to understand explanations that use terms they are already familiar with. Aircraft have an altimeter and speedometer. You can consider them to be potential and kinetic energy gauges but the descriptive quantifiable units will still be MPH and Feet.

Just a quick point to anyone reading this thread. While the video is helpfull it may also be slightly misleading in certain minor areas. If any new players want to ask about any of the subject material shown in this video I would advise booking an hour with a trainer in the TA.

Sunka, you've had the good news already so now time for a little bad news. There are certain mistakes in your tutorial. I also advise spending some time with a trainer. Maybe just a 15 minute catch up with one of the most experienced trainers like TC or Badboy, who would be able to run through a few things that you could have done better. Shoot either of them a PM here on the board if you want some realistic criticism.

I can take the video down np.   (edit)infact its done.So no more video  ty for your help.

Wow, not sure what made you think the video should come down sir. Like I said it's a great video and helpfull. All I'm saying is that there are a few mistakes that the more experienced trainers (not me) might be able to correct with slightly higher fidelity. Don't take offence. Everyone needs encouragement and some critisism to improve (myself more than most)

S!

I sent this to a bunch of trainers to get opinions before i ever posted it (so i would not have to see there are mistakes in open forms),and not all got back to me but i felt i had enough okays to go ahead and post.
You yourself sent me a pm saying how good it was (nothing else), then you come here and say i maybe should go to trainers area.
I don't know what happend to change your opinion of my video in the 2 days.
I do expect it is not perfect (not much is) but i had two main goals in this
#1 do not teach anything that is down right wrong ( not someones opinion) but just for fact is wrong.
#2 To just help with small parts of ACM.
I thought i did that ,to date i have not gotten any info on how to make the video better for a point of fact just opinion on what could "look" better.
So with no info on how to make it better but you say there are mistakes i can do nothing but take it down.
No big deal i was trying to help,if that's not happening i don't need to take days on days to make these.

I thought I replied to your PM by saying it was a well made video and would be helpful. This I still believe to be true.

O i know bud,i just did not want to post it with anything (to) wrong,and till i know what to fix i cant fix it so i wont post it.
I don't want to give players bad info.

Hey Sunka,
To clear up something regarding your opening post, as you're yourself are already aware of...
I'm the one who pm'ed Sunka, letting him I would help review and get back to him...  I did get a chance to reply, although to late, since RL and wedding planning for my Lady's daughter has been taking my time lately... My apologies for that Sunka, Sir!

As for anything else,  I will try and help you Sunka via pm as we have been doing....
