Cindy Hollman, an excellent instructor with great communication skills.

Well, I am a corporate pilot with a YouTube channel but my employer won’t allow me to do videos of flights so I do tutorials on MSFS. The channel is currently focusing on flight training but demonstrating procedures using MSFS. Learn To Fly Here Intro
Actually, it’s the opposite.
2 red / 2 white, you are on glide slope.
The more red you see, the lower you are. The more white you see, the higher you are.
Just curious how many readers here are fans of LA Flights on YouTube? I’ve often wondered what the demographics of their subscribers are? They’ve got over 150,000 of them (including me). Are there really that many avgeeks out there? In all my years, I haven’t known anyone as in to aviation as myself. Growing up, I just accepted that others didn’t share my passion. But it seems that at least 150,000 do?
