Revisiting lapse rates (From: How high is that cloud?) by Icebound
I have been following the thread about "How high is that cloud", and quite a few of the posters seems to have some misconceptions about lapse rate. Some of you, especially, are comparing apples and oranges: The *environmental lapse rate* is a measurement of the real atmosphere. The *dry...

Clarification of the KMTV GPS-30/LOC-30 Approaches?? by Icebound
A couple of clarifications, please, for the IFR-challenged... 1. Is there a good reason for the holding point for the GPS approach to 30, to be back 11.8 miles back from the holding point for the LOC approach? They have established UBWAY right at the marker, so why do they not let the GPS...

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...
