Default Organizational Skills Required During Instrument Flight

You can quickly load the approaches and
graphically see what atc is doing. Otherwise, during training, I found that
I was just blindly following vectors without really visualizing. After
doing the approaches for a while, you will start to anticipate atc. I now
fly practice approaches without the gps.



It took me a while to figure out that those seemingly arbitrary vectors were
actually just corresponding to downwind, base and final legs... just a lot wider
pattern. Eureka!
