The PPL Pilot’s guide episodes
- Exercise 4
Exercise 4 is broken into 2 parts 4.1 & 4.2
Effects of controls is the overall title
This will probably be the single most important lesson you do as it will be the fundamentals of how you fly your plane and more importantly how you stay safe when there is an issue and not make things worse
The first part 4.1 is about your lookout and the primary effect and secondary effect of each control input
4.2 is also about effects of controls but is about the effects of some of the other controls outside of your primary flight controls

26 min - Exercise 3
The aim of this exercise is to give you the opportunity to get the feel of being airborne in a light aircraft, maybe for the first time and experience the sensations of flying.
Let it be known, this is when your wallet will hurt as this is the point you realise you will have to get your licence, you simply cannot not get that thrill again.
Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
22 min - Exercise 2
This exercise is about the considerations prior to flight and it will be a conversation with your instructor at the start of your flying but hopefully something you are considering on every single flight beyond your training.
The exercise raises questions which you should be able to answer by the end of your training.
Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
20 min - Exercise 1
Exercise 1 focuses on the typical training aircraft you will learn to fly in and familiarisation of these aircraft.
Exercise 1 you can do before you’ve even started your flight training.
As always any questions do not hesitate to get in touch.

13 min - Your Medical explained
We discuss why you need a medical to be a pilot and what is involved in that medical examination, and also discuss the different kinds of medical to find the right one for you.
Getting your first medical can be scary, so this is all about answering all your questions you may have and trying to relive your concerns.
As always any questions, please get in touch.

About The PPL Pilot’s guide
From the publisher's feed
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!
