Inside marker? I think you mean the inner marker. If you want an
authoritative source try the new FAA instrument flying handbook.

So, you are saying that the FM activate the same light as the Inside
Marker. Is this written down anywhere? I could not find anything in the
AIM. Before I explain this to my ground school I want to be certain I
have the correct answer.

A fan marker lights the white light. An OM lights the blue light.

A few questions came up in ground school that had me stumped. Any
insight is appreciated.

Why do some approaches say Radar required when all the fixes can be
identified using other equipment required for the approach? For
example, VOR-DME-A at 3G3.

When a holding pattern is published in lieu of a PT, my understanding
of the AIM (5-4-9 (4)) is that you only have to perform the entry,
and are not required to do any laps around the pattern. What if the
hold requires a direct entry? In that case it seems that you can
effectively skip the holdind pattern, which does not make sense to me
because a PT (or hold in lieu of PT) is a required maneuver. Take a
look at SDF10 @ DWU.

Why does the hold in lieu of a PT always say "1 min". Isn't a hold
always 1 min? Why is this mentioned only for this type of hold, and
not mentioned for all other holds?

What exactly is a Fan Marker? See SDF10 @ DWU. How is this different
from an OM? The fan marker seems to have its own identifier code.
