Hey try it in your simulator. I bet you will crash and burn in your simulated environment. Not for me thanks in a real airplane. I will trust but verify every time I leave terra firma including using the seat of my pants to verify power inputs.. This method has worked for me in the past six years of my instrument flying, and I sure won't change it because you say put my life in instruments without crosschecking and verifying it. Don't get me wrong, I am still a student every time I walk on the ramp, and got plenty to learn and open to it, but when you tell me what I feel and do is incorrect and you have never experience the sensation of flight in a GA plane, you have NO credibility. With your attitude, I am glad you are using a simulator, as you wouldn't survive the basic 180 turn for VFR pilots much less slogging along in the clag for a couple of hours to terminate that flight with an approach that required procedure turns and circle to land that was one of my major accomplishments in my small corner of the world.. |

As a matter of fact, during training my instructor regularly blanked off the ASI in the circuit and yet I still managed to trim to the correct final approach speed to within 4 knots (as revealed when the papaer was removed). Explain that -and no I'm not a very gifted pilot... Power setting and attitude ? |

This newsgroup would be much better off if Anthony did try his piloting skills in a real airplane. He'll be dead and we'll be rid of him. No. That would mean that he's destroyed an aircraft. |

With ASI out, use the back-up stall buzzer on final, then 4 knot accuracy is easy...duh. Ken |

Yep, go ahead, try leveling off with an AI ERRONEOUSLY showing a 20 pitch up. Go ahead and trust that instrument. The AI is the most reliable instrument on most aircraft, after the magnetic compass. And of course you'll want two, just in case one fails, for IFR. Hey try it in your simulator. I bet you will crash and burn in your simulated environment. Hmm. I'll try it sometime. This method has worked for me in the past six years of my instrument flying ... It always seems to work ... until the day that it doesn't. Don't get me wrong, I am still a student every time I walk on the ramp, and got plenty to learn and open to it, but when you tell me what I feel and do is incorrect and you have never experience the sensation of flight in a GA plane, you have NO credibility. Well, read a book. Talk to a CFI. It's your life, not mine. |
