The PPL Pilot’s guide

Jake Castle is a 30 year old EASA ATPL and CAA PPL holder from Essex England but currently residing in Malaga Spain. Self described as “not the smartest bloke” they have created a guide to all the exercises in the PPL syllabus to help break down into easy to understand chunks, helping you to maximise your time in your costly flying lessons learning to fly, not remembering how to fly.

As an auditory and kinaesthetic learner, they are someone that when driving to the airfields would have a roughly hour long drive to and from, and so would often need something to listen to, and they just wish they had the PPL Pilot’s guide during their training to help them learn.

This podcast is not there to teach you to fly but to supplement your studies so whilst you are driving to the airfield or washing up or on your commute to work or school, you can have this on in the background as a gentle reminder of what you need to do in that flying exercise.

This is not aircraft specific podcast and only serves to reinforce to basic fundamentals of each exercise which no matter if you are learning to fly for fun or aim to go commercial, analog or digital cockpit, it will be the building blocks of all your aviation.

You want to save money learning to fly by turning up to your lesson prepared, you do not want to spend your lesson time having to remember what you did last lesson or what you should be doing this lesson, you want to turn up, prepared and ready to learn new skills and develop.

Each episode labelled with the exercise number and a brief description, so you do not need to listen to all of them, simple find the exercise you need and have a listen.

Your instructor may tell you to do certain things differently as per the flying order book of your school/club or they simply may have their way of doing it, but this podcast serves to give you the fundamentals of each exercise.

Happy flying!
