Center vs. Approach Altitudes by Joseph D. Farrell
Hello - I have been looking in the AIM and a few other places and am trying to track down where enroute approach control end and Center control altitudes begin. When planning arrivals and depatures through NYC/DC/PHL and BOS airspace I was curious where those altitudes begin. I've been told...

KAP140 Autopilot Details by News
I have a question about some nuances of the Bendix/King KAP 140 autopilot. Since the ink is still wet on my IFR rating (actually I have not even gotten the new one in the mail yet!) I am working on a personal "post checkride" syllabus. Part of this self training is to fly different routes on an...

Crossing a stepdown fix high by David Brooks
Is there any problem with controllers or examiners if I cross a stepdown fix several hundred feet above the depicted altitude? I believe that, legally, I can be at any altitude above the crossing minimum, but would this be a bust of the PTS +/-100 tolerance, or cause a problem for ATC? For...

req: a favor from someone who subscribes to Jepp for Hawaii by [email protected]
I was wondering if there is anyone out there that has a Jepp chart subscription that covers Hawaii. I'd like to get hold of at least the low altitude enroute chart and hopefully also the approach plates for Kona, Hilo, and (especially) Kamuela. The latter, which is where our 2nd home is, just got...

GPS approaches with Center by Dan Luke
How many here have flown GPS approaches with Center as the approach control? I'd be interested to hear your experiences. I needed to fly one yesterday to get into Greenville, AL and the ZTL controller sounded really befuddled about quite how to handle it. Because of another recent experience, I...

Constant Angle Non-Precision Approaches (CANPA) by John Bell
I noticed the thread about "Crossing a stepdown fix high" got quite a bit of debate. One of the topics in much of the discussion centered on stabilized approaches verses dive and drive. I was initially a skeptic on using CANPA, but I have come to believe that it is a better way of flying...

More KAP 140 questions by News
I have another KAP 140 question for the group. Is there a way to have a dual axis w/ pre-select model of the KAP140 act as though it is only a single axis? Sometimes I want to engage the AP in heading mode but take care of pitch myself. Engaging the AP in heading mode makes the AP automatically...

IFR GPS by Stephen Merrifield
I seem to be having a hard time grasping this... My ADF has taken a nose dive for the final time and I'd like to install an IFR GPS to be able to use it in lieu of an ADF and DME and the moving map would be nice as well. ( I fly with a handheld Garmin 196 already ). So here's my problem. I think...

who uses FSS? by McGregor
I get my pre-flight briefings from: *) weathertap - RadarLab, area outlook, tafs, progs *) ADDS - flightpath tool for AIRMETS & winds aloft along the route *) FlightStar - to tell me how long it'll take, print nice-looking flight plans, plan fuel stops, etc. Then I call flight service and listen...

Another Instrument written question.... by [email protected]
One of the questions in the FAA exam (I don't have the number in front of me) Shows a panel where the altimeter and VSI are both still and the Airspeed is very low. The Attitude indicator looks normal for pitch. The "Correct" answer is that the pitot system or the airspeed indicator has...

Current Pilots and/or CFI's -- FAR/AIM by JBoDEAN
Just curious. What brand FAR/AIM do you prefer? I've been using ASA's and debating on trying something new for the 2004 edition. I know Gleim, ASA, Jepp all have their FAR/AIM. The other CFI's I work with here use the Jepp (book version, not the subscription).

ILS Critical Area signage: Localizer or Glideslope? by Adam K.
Hi, Does the ILS Critical Area sign apply to the localizer or the glideslope antenna? Or is this is a dumb question? CCR (Concord California) 19R has a localizer approach. No glideslope. It has an ILS Critical Area sign. I read recently that ILS equipped fields require the ILS critical area sign...
