King Keeps up the Free Content Spree with PPL Courses

Private Pilot Maneuvers Course Aims to Push Back Against the Wide Field of Shoddy YouTube Content

King Schools continues its war on low-quality information, this time publishing a free course focused on Private Pilot Ground Reference Maneuvers.

This course is lifted from the King’s complete Private Pilot Maneuvers course and prepares students for their flight lessons by showing how to nail Turns Around a Point, Rectangular Patterns and S-Turns Across a Road to FAA checkride standards. It's a small sampling of the greater program, giving students a taste of what they'll get if they choose to go through the full King Course for their Private Pilot Ground School.

Barry Knuttila, hosts the videos, showing students the ropes. “Ground reference maneuvers can be a source of frustration for student pilots. We show tips and tricks you can use to deal with wind to fly good patterns over the ground. This skill is best first understood on the ground. Watching these videos will save time and frustration in the air, while impressing your flight instructor with what you know.”

King Schools highlighted their recent additions to their YouTube compendium, the "How To Become a Pilot" series. Those videos are "designed to clear up confusion and give people who are considering learning to fly a path to success," though King is quite clear that they're aimed at bringing the non-pilot into the aviation fold. Episodes break down the process of pilot certification into a dozen short, easily understandable segments, teaching newbies about everything from their medical certificate to the process of finding a good CFI. The series is narrated by King Schools digital marketing manager Samuel Golden, one of National Business Aviation Association’s “Top 40 under 40” award recipients in 2023.

Golden said his goal is "that learners will feel inspired to go after their dreams.”
