There's not a lot in the user's manual about how to set up a non- published hold using the Garmin 430W. Lets say you are on a flightplan with SBJ VOR as one of your waypoints and ATC needs you to hold on the SBJ 160 radial right hand turns one minute legs. Is there anything to simplify this...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WaZ_yx_PvHM I kind of compiled it in what I hope is a user friendly format for the pilot that was with me so she can relate the ATC instructions to the 16L approach plate. She had never been in a Sundowner so you will hear me talk about the characteristics of a...

Today's 1.6 hour flight to the Northeast practice area compressed to 4 minutes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7CzHdoNw-E Every IFR pilot should do this this type of flight at least one time in their flying career. I would still be flying had the clouds not evaporated :-)

I did an Oxford instrument ground school long ago. One of the weather topics was glaze ice. This was described as extremely dangerous, in that supercooled rain could impact and flow to a glassy ice layer over the wing in seconds, which tended to pull the aircraft down pronto. In the last three...

What are the advantages of vfr-on-top in the real world? I understand the ifr to vfr-on-top then cancel, but what about other uses?

Hello, I'm trying to figure out why the ILS or LOC Rwy 9 KJZI requires DME, per the notes. Any ideas? I don't see where any of the fixes can't be determined by dual VORs. Thanks, Padraig
