    Default Informative video everyone should watch

    This isn't the first video I have seen of this kind but every time I watch one it makes me realize how quickly I can happen.

    Very good video! My daughter always accuses me of piddling and taking my time. I guess it's best I continue my bad practice of piddling. Now I can tell her I'm waiting for the wake turbulence, but she'll just tell me I'm piddling, and I am and always do.

    Rotorcraft can leave heavy wake turbulence, too…

    I remember departing Airventure 2012. I was waiting on the taxiway along side runway 18 when the C5 departed. I watched the dust swirl along the runway for near 5 minutes after that beast took off. I guess I ****ed off the controllers waiting, but there was no way I was going on that runway (in a 650# airplane!) until the turbulence dissipated.

    At the 1:30 mark you can just see my wings past the Gator (bottom right corner), waiting in line.
