Finally! Real Answers and No Mumbo-Jumbo about Flaring an Airplane – 5 Stars (Again)!

by Reviewer Andrew – Version – 1.0.0 – Jun 15, 2015

“I strongly endorse this app. David Jacobson, who is a true aviation professional, has brought much worthwhile thought to the problem of the landing flare. In this app, he’s expressed logically, in mathematically correct geometric terms, how to aim the aircraft for landing, when to flare, and how; in a way that every pilot from student to ATPL can understand and apply. The app itself is first class, with powerful graphics and diagrams, real video showing the technique in practice, and very useful tutorials for a range of problems and situations. As well, there are appendices with supplementary information including calculators, mathematical derivation and references. A bit of study is needed to fully appreciate the technique, but it’s not hard and the quality of the app makes for well structured learning. It’s easy to start, and learn in stages: it’s really a structured mini-course and an extremely well presented one at that. Highly recommended.”

 

Wishing you many safe landings

WINGMATE and The Jacobson Flare announce joint collaboration

17.06.2015 , news

WINGMATE and the JACOBSON FLARE announce joint collaboration

WINGMATE is best described as a ‘black box’ – flight data recorder for light aircraft – brainchild of Peter Wezenbeek – Race Tactician to Matt Hall Racing and former Renault F1 Race Team Control Systems Engineer.

WINGMATE is a simple yet powerful data and tracking device designed to monitor an airplane’s usage and improve the flying experience for both experienced and novice pilots. This device records flight data directly onto an SD card so that pilots and operators can keep track of flight performance quickly and easily.

The perfect tool for flight training organisations, regional airlines, agricultural aviation, aircraft rental and charter companies, aerobatic training and competition and, of course, recreational and professional pilots at all levels, WINGMATE is your perfect companion. It greatly enhances flight safety.

The JACOBSON FLARE is the world’s first and only universal, quantifiable and consistently reliable approach and landing training technique. Since 1987, Captain David Jacobson has defined the common denominator to all landings: the pilot’s eye path. Thousands of pilots now land their airplanes without relying solely on the myths, legends and misinformation, recycled since 1918. They have a fully visual ‘overlay’ for their visual approaches.

Now, these two powerful tools combine the unique JACOBSON FLARE landing parameters with the leading-edge technology of WINGMATE, to provide incomparable evidence-based feedback on approach and landing accuracy. This will greatly enrich WINGMATE’s Landing report of recorded flights, and endow pilots and operators in any branch of aviation with finite results, to review and refine levels of competency, which are now required by aviation authorities.

Stay tuned for further developments!

… a long way to go but filled with confidence: thank you for this

… a long way to go but filled with confidence: thank you for this

Dear Mr. Jacobson,

I hope you are well. Just a quick note to let you know that I spend last Saturday reading your app/book and repeatedly watching the videos. To my surprise, starting with the first landing on Sunday, during my lesson, every single landing went ‘perfectly’ (almost never landed before without the instructor taking part/over..) and without help (prompting) from the instructor.

This preparation has led to me having flown my ‘first solo’ last Sunday and I felt confident during every one of the three landings. Naturally a long way to go but filled with confidence, thank you for this!

Kindest regards,

Martijn Koenders

“…the instruction I received on how to land has been very ad hoc…”

09.06.2015 , what-other-pilots-say

“I am a happy customer of your iPad app and first off would like to extend my thanks for the beautiful and intuitive design as well as the most useful content. All of the instruction I received on how to land has been very ad hoc, but having a degree in math, it’s clearly a geometrical problem, which you so eloquently solved and explicated in your app.”

– Dmitry Dakhnovsky
