🌩️ Setting personal minimums is crucial for pilot safety! In this clip from my latest YouTube video on the Private Pilot ACS task, I emphasize the importance of establishing strict weather minimums before your checkride—and sticking to them, no matter what. Sometimes, that means requesting a discontinuance if conditions aren't right. Stay safe and fly smart! #PilotLife #AviationSafety #CheckrideTips ✅ Like this video?

In this video, we're excited to explore ForeFlight's newest, groundbreaking feature tailored for pilots who take their coffee ☕ as seriously as their flight plans 🛩️: the Coffee Layer and Bathroom Advisor. With a tap of a button, pilots can now filter their route maps not only by the best aviation fuel prices but by the quality of coffee, ranging from light and weak for the casual sippers to bold and dark for the true aficionados. But they didn't stop there. Understanding the essential nature of timely breaks during long flights, they've integrated the Bathroom Advisor 🚻. Simply input how many ounces of coffee you plan to consume per hour, and ForeFlight does the rest, calculating and suggesting optimal stops for bathroom breaks, ensuring you stay comfortable and hydrated throughout your journey. This feature is designed to enhance your flying experience, keeping you alert, hydrated, and ready for whatever your flight path holds. Join us as we delve into the functionality, showcasing how you can seamlessly integrate these new features into your flight planning routine, ensuring your next sky-high adventure is as enjoyable as the coffee that fuels it. #PilotTips #ForeFlight ✅ Like this video?
