Can ATC assign an airway if filed direct? by
Andrew Sarangan
If you file to a VOR direct, can ATC clear you along an airway
instead, and expect you to look up the airways? In other words, how
important is to carry an enroute chart if you don't plan on using
airways?

Can EFIS / EFMS lead to removing basic safety checks? by
Jim Carter
This question is the result of the wrong runway issue at LEX last
weekend.
Not having flown an EFIS or EFMS myself, I'm not sure of the "into
position checklist items". For example, in a standard steam-gauge panel
one of the last things we check is to align the directional gyro with
the runway...

Can GPS be *too* accurate? Do I need some XTE?? by
Icebound
In the "good old" VOR days, it must have been pretty difficult to fly down
the centerline of an airway (or of any direct track).
So an eastbound VFR/IFR aircraft descending from 7500/7000 to his
destination, was more than likely to avoid traffic... on the reciprocal
track passing him by at 6500 or...

Can there be false lobes on a *localizer*? by
[email protected]
I recall reading about false lobes on the glideslope, and have seen it
firsthand doing practice approaches in VMC. I thought it was due to antenna
sidelobes, and thus the localizer might be subject to a similar phenomenon. I have
yet to see anyone reference this, so is there a technical reason...

Can US enroute charts be used in Canada? by
Andrew Sarangan
Are the Canadian areas shown in the US enroute charts valid for IFR
navigation? Unlike the VFR sectional charts, I don't see any warnings
printed on the IFR enroute charts.

Canadian Chart Schedule? by
[email protected]
Does anyone know if the Canadian approach charts (CAP) are on the same
schedule as the US? I am flying to Toronto next month but want to make
sure I don't buy charts from Sportys that will be out of date when I
go.

Canadian Charts by

Is there an online source for Canadian IAP charts like there is for the
NACO one's? (i.e. -- free or nearly so)
Thanks.

Canadian holding procedures by
Derrick Early
What are the holding procedures in Canada? On the approach plates, they say
something like "Climb to 1900 on track of 297 deg. LEFT turn to 2T NDB."
However, they don't show any holding pattern. Do they expect you to enter a
hold at the beckon? What radial do you use?

to have your aircraft IFR certified? I imagine a primary and secondary

CANADIAN IFR TRAINING MATERIALS by
[email protected]
I currently hold my PPL-A in Canada, and would like to begin the
"book-learning" part of my training for the Instrument rating.
Suggestions for CANADIAN reading material and text-books for this from
qualified and experienced pilots and or instructors out there would be
much appreciated.
Thanks ...

Cananian airspace by
Mike Rapoport
What type of airspace is the restricted airspace north of Vancouver Island.
Flightmap lists it as COMOX and says that it reaches from 18,000MSL to
Unlimited. It is big, about 165nm on the NS axis and 110nm EW. What are my
chances at getting cleared through it at FL240?
Thanks!

Cancelling IFR in Bravo airspace by
Terence Wilson[_2_]
On a few occasions I have filed a departure procedure to a nearby
intersection just to get on top (comments section reads "IFR to VFR on
top"). After breaking out of the clouds and advising ATC of the bases
and tops, I usually cancel IFR and proceed "own nav" with flight
following. Which brings me...

How much longer are we supposed to be happy for a bunch of frozen
piper pilots on government technological welfare ?
If ADS-B saves lives, deploy it. Or shut the hell up. Just my
2 cents.

Checked the notams that the NAVCANADA website called up for the route and
everything seemed fine. Checked with FSS - no additional notams
Only once up in the air did ATC advise me of a NOTAM indicating VOR YEE U/S.
The problem is that without an...

CAT II Minimums on a CAT I Approach by
Giwi
I've heard that some pilots have the authority to descend to CAT II
minimums (RA100) on CAT I intstrument approaches. If this is true,
then how is the CAT I approach altered? Is the DH simply lowered?
Seems like this would result in steeper approach angles to make it
work out right. Alternately...
