![]() "Gig 601XL Builder" wrote in message ... You said use of a VOR was in the PP requirements. It's not. It was for me. No it wasn't. But had you read the thread (and I know you did) you would have understood that I was countering the argument of a student pilot that basically wrote that non-instrument pilots shouldn't be using any electronic navigation system as primary navigation. But I'm also sure you knew this as well and just like starting arguments. What you're sure of is incorrect. |

I had no other electronic nav system in the aircraft I took my PPL checkride in.

So you just jumped into the thread without reading the previous and quoted posts and acted like a dick. While I think you are lying it doesn't really surprise me. |

The PP requirements are not altered by the equipment in the aircraft used for the checkride. |

Your sound more like MX every time you touch your keyboard. Let's try something. A. Is there a requirement in the PP standard to show use of a electronic navigation system? If Yes go to B. If No you're an idiot I already posted the requirement. B. If VOR is the only electronic navigation system in the plane how will one be tested on an ADF, GPS or anything else? |

Has this little exercise helped you to understand that use of a VOR is not in the PP requirements, and that the PP requirements are not altered by the equipment in the aircraft used for the checkride? If "No", you're an idiot. |

If "No", you're an idiot. Actually, the examiner isn't some automaton who sits there checking boxes. (well there're probably one or two who do) If he gets into an airplane with a candidate who can't operate the **** on board and he imagines this guy putting around like a cow on crack, long fingering the day he might learn to use the equipment installed, he's going to fail him on general princple. He won't say that, of course.... Bertie |

He won't say that, of course.... I don't know if my interpretation of the legaleese is correct, but when I did my test my instructor told me "if it is on the panel, the examiner will expect you to know how to use it, or at a bare minimum how to disable it." So he taught me how to use the GPS that was installed in my club's Tomahawks. My examiner had no issues at all when I hit the "direct to nearest" buttons on the GPS when he asked me what I would do if I was to divert to the closest airport. Chris |
