No SID in clearance, fly it anyway? by Roy Smith
Had a strange thing happen to me today. I filed IFR HPN - HFD (White Plains NY to Hartford CT). The route part of my clearance came back "radar vectors Carmel, V1, Hartford, Direct". Usually out of HPN I would expect to get the Westchester-1 departure, but it wasn't in my clearance, and I when...

How to get IFR Clearance enroute? by Stimbo
What are the recommended procedures in obtaining an IFR clearance enroute? Flying from NJ to FL, I prefer to fly VFR, but undoubtedly I will encounter IMC along the way. If I filed IFR in advance, it takes 1/2 hour or more to clear it through ATC. I obviously cannot wait 1/2 hour if I encounter...

Phrase "landing runway" vs. "cleared to land" by Robert M. Gary
Today I was shooting approaches at MHR. Wx was 001OVC 1/8SM. When I got handed off to tower they would say "Mooney 1234, not in site, landing own risk, landing runway 22L". That doesn't sound like a landing clearance to me. What does "landing runway 22L" mean in the tower ATC phrase book? Why would...

GNS 430W vs GNS 480 by Ron Gordon
I'm going to add either the GNS 430W or GNS 480 to a Beach Bonanza and am wondering if any of you who fly with these GPS units have a recommendation? I'd like a very capable IFR GPS with integrated NAV/COM abilities, which I'll couple to my S-TEC 50 Autopilot with GPSS. Both the 430W and 480 are...

Can I log SIC under 135 IFR? by [email protected]
In an interview I had recently, I was told the nearly 300 hours I'd logged as SIC in a C208B for a Scheduled 135 EAS provider was not able to be counted in my logbook for Total Flight Time calculations. I had received a 135.293; 135.297 and 135.299 check ride and have said endorsements on my...

single pilot ifr trip tonight by Guy Elden Jr.
Just got back from a good proficiency practice flight. This was the first time I'd flown single pilot IFR at night with conditions that could potentially deteriorate to actual instrument.

FAA letter on flight into known icing by C J Campbell
There was an earlier thread on whether it was legal to fly an airplane under part 91 into known icing if there was no specific prohibition against it in the airplane's operating handbook. I asked the Seattle FSDO what their take was on the issue. This is their reply: Dear Mr. Campbell: Thanks for...

Cessna 182T w. G-1000 pirep by C J Campbell
OK, I know I said I would not get to fly this plane until tomorrow, but it arrived early and so I took a flight. This is a new turbocharged Cessna T182T. For those that have not seen the 182T (either turbo or normal, introduced last year), you might be a little startled the first time you take a...

Logging approaches by Ron Garrison
I had a 'first' last week, and I am looking for other peoples thoughts on this one. It was my first (I believe) loggable instrument approach in what was legally VMC. I was flying from the San Francisco bay area down to Burbank. The reported conditions were sky clear, visibility 4 miles in...

LPV vs LNAV/VNAV? by Paul kgyy
Can someone explain to me the difference between these two approach types, and how they relate to WAAS? A sample approach that has both is KARR RNAV(GPS) RWY 9. LPV DA is 956, LNAV/VNAV DA is 990.

FAA Ops Specs for air carriers have a middle column for types of approved approaches called “APV” - Approaches with Vertical Guidance, LDA-GS is listed in this column and not under Precision Approach. I’d give that answer in an interview, even though Instrument ACS would allow it to be...

"Refusing to Handle You" by Mike Granby
So, an interesting thing happened today. I am at a fly-in at Hagerstown and about to head back to my home-base at York (THV). I can see from the PC they had there that there is a line of heavy rain and possibly thunderstorms blocking my route back. There is no way around it to the north, but there...

IFR Cancellation Question by A Lieberma
Severe clear today, so other then the safety net of ATC services, weather wasn't an issue. Coming back from HBG (Hattiesburg MS) to MBO (Madison MS) encountered the following exchange with ATC. I was already told to expect the visual approach in my inital contact with approach controller. ...
