GPS for NDB IAF on ILS? by Jim Burns
I don't have my AIM here at work, and I'm on dial up, so I won't attempt to download it, but I'm looking at the ILS 32 into KMQY Smyrna TN. It says ADF REQUIRED which I understand is to identify the IAF which is the SWZ NDB not associated with a marker beacon, inside the outer marker. This is the...

Is XM weather worthwhile? by Ron Garret
My SR22 partners want to install XM weather to the tune of about $10k. I'm not convinced it's worthwhile. The plane is based in Southern California where we don't tend to get the kind of squirrelly weather they get east of the Mississippi. In the summer we'll get isolated thunderstorms over the...

timing holds by [email protected]
Roy Smith wrote: What does it mean when they say you start timing the outbound leg of a hold "over or abeam the VOR, whichever occurs later". I'm having a hard time envisioning a flight path which takes you both over and abeam the VOR. I can see either, but not both, so I don't understand...

updating AirChart IFR charts - PITA for everyone? by [email protected]
I signed up for the IFR chart program from AirCharts, but didn't have an IFR rating. Now as I'm starting training, I'm trying to do the updates. These are amazingly messy/difficult to deal with. HOw many others on here have the IFR system and are able to do the updates? I keep seing these "new...

FAA Thumped again by RAMButt
No big surprise here. The politically Correct destruction of once was a proud professional organization is evident. Rather than Air Safety, Gay Pride celebrations and promoting unqualified minorities into management is the new priority of the "Politically Correct misaligned unsafe FAA" I trust my...

Garmin 430 and ILS by Greg Esres
The Garmin 430 documentation says that you can use the GPS for course guidance on an ILS/LOC up until the final approach fix. Where exactly does the approval for this come from? My inclination would have been that in absence of an overlay, you could not use GPS anywhere after the IAF. Also,...

REVISED lInstrument Procedures Handbook by Gene Whitt
The previous posting of my was premature since none of the links worked except on my computer. The whole thread was spent away from my work on the FAA textbook except for Bob Gardner and a couple of others. Suggest you take a look at the book or better my site to see how your money is 'spent' by...

WAAS Airport Costs? by [email protected]
I have the ear of some local government development people, who are contemplating upgrading some airports. Money is tight, so an ILS is probably not under consideration. So, I want to recommend to them checking into a WAAS installation. Does anyone know what the prices of such equipment for an...

Contact Approach by Russ MacDonald
Being from Texas, and flying mostly in the Midwest and South, I have never asked for nor had any need for a contact approach. If I see the runway I tell the controller, and he gives me a visual. In fact, I can't remember ever hearing a contact approach requested around here. Then, I whenever I...

Air Safety at risk by Unqualified FAA Management by Peterpan
In 1837, Danish author, Hans Christian Andersen, wrote a wonderful fairy tale which he titled The Emperor's New Clothes. It may be the very first example of the power of political correctness. It is the story of the Ruler of a distant land who was so enamored of his appearance (FAA MANAGEMENT)...

IFR reading by Paul Folbrecht
Am finishing up Machado's exellent Instrument Flying Handbook now. Really enjoyed that - lots of good stuff on approaches (especially) that you don't get in the training materials. So, what else is must reading for the newly-minted IFR pilot?? Thanks for all the replies on the staying-current...

ILS Rwy 20 at Marion, ILL by Robert Scott
In the latest Jepp update for Marion, ILL, the procedure has changed to what looks for all the world like a LOC approach. The minimums for the ILS have been replaced by ‘NA’, and the DA has been replaced by an MDA. Yet the title of the approach is still ILS Rwy 20. Why didn’t they change the...

Best portable map to help when doing IFR flight by [email protected]
I went up with a friend who is a CFII to do some night IFR last Tuesday. Everything went fine, except when So. Cal. cleared me to RAL for CNO GPS-B while I was going out bound from the published hold at PDZ, I could not get RAL programmed into my Trimble 2000 Approach as the IAF. I tried it...

How much separation is required by the tower for a/c taking off and landing? I was in position and holding on 34 at Asheville, NC (AVL) today, with a plane on final, me in position and holding, and a 182 in front of me taking off. Before his wheels left the runway, I was cleared for take-off. I...

Windsor Tower by Richard W. Graves
I am based at Grosse Ile MI (KONZ) and I was practicing approaches Monday morning at Windsor Ont. The controller asked me to remind all Detroit area pilots that Windsor loves to have us come there and practice. He also wanted me to tell everyone that there are no Canadian ATC charges for...

How long before /G required for IFR? by Colin W Kingsbury
Just read in aopa weekly mail today that the FAA is considering shutting down the BDL (Bradley, Hartford CT) and PVD (Providence RI) VORs. These are not exactly podunk navaids. Both are located at Class C fields with substantial airline traffic (not just RJs either) and they support a decent...
