Since I'm on the GS when my GS receiver fails my distance from the MAP is directly proportional to my altitude above DH. A 3 degree GS drops 318' in each nautical mile. If I'm about 1000' above DH I'm about 3 miles from the MAP. Simple. OK, since we're never going to agree on this, please help me out here. I'm a CFI-I. If I were to have a lesson with a student who is pretty much ready for his IR checkride tomorrow morning, please write out the math that he/she would need to do in IMC on the ILS when his/her glideslope failed. I would need to convince this student that doing this math in IMC (while doing all the other stuff) is easy/safer/better than starting the timer. Let's assume that the GS fails at 2700' (MSL), the DH is at 357' (MSL), a 3 degree glideslope, an 'ILS' airspeed of 100 knots, a climb airspeed of 80 knots. For simplicity, let's assume no wind conditions. Thanks. Hilton |
