Yes, it does.

Bob, sorry to ask another different question, but I saw your communication
software in my local airport shop and wanted to know if it covers IFR
communication practice as well as the VFR (which I already have)? If so,

it
is quite a bargain, 'cause another software company charges separate price
for each version.

Gotta go along with Dave. Don't fall into the trap of flying outbound a
certain number of minutes...the changing wind makes that a poor choice.

Go
out until you are beneath the glideslope and, as Dave says, far enough

so
that you have time to get squared away (and get a handle on the wind at

PT
altitude...which is a clue, but not the answer, to the wind going

downhill).

I'm reviewing the approach plates for my Instrument lesson this coming
Thursday (which I just realized is September 11, of all things..).

I've
found it useful to 'practice' approaches using OnTop flight sim

before
my
lessons, seems to give me more 'bang for the buck'.

Anyway (I'm sorry, in advance, if I'm am asking something that should

be
obvious), I'm looking at the LOC Rwy 2 approach to Watsonville

Municipal
(California). There is a procedure turn that sits just before the
'entrance' into the localizer. How does one identify where it

actually
is
(the beginning of the procedure turn, that is)? Does one simply fly

up
the
localizer and when the localizer signal is lost THAT is where the

location
of the procedure turn sits?

Thanks in advance!
