IFR

GPS

Have the UA BARIN FMS waypoints http://www.mcaa-md.org/resources/iad3.jpg
(old chart, not for navigation ) (Close as you'll get to WDC)

Piedmont

The centerlines have big bumpy lights - land left or right of them

Be able to maintain 120k or greater until over the numbers.

Up to 0930 - busy
Up to noonish - light traffic
The bizjets seem to flow in heaviest after lunch but before 1530
1530-2100 busy busy busy (might need to expect an "engine start" time if
departing during these hours)

Have taxiway map

Watch for jetblast

Look for the Concorde parked at the end of 19L, I believe.
