How many instruments can I use for VFR?

if it is in the airplane.. you are expected to know how to use it for "exams" But are you always _allowed_ to use it? I know how to use all the instruments I have, but navigating without some of them might be difficult. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |

: You might very well have it nailed correctly. If this is his issue, it makes it all the more a shame. I know more than one simulator pilot who has come into the real aviation venue successfully and gained wide acceptance because of their friendly approach and constant quest for knowledge. Its so easy to be appreciative and friendly. The strange thing is that he actually asks some very intelligent questions hidden in all that nastiness of his. The obvious thing is that he believes before he asks them, that he knows more of the answer than the one he will get.....and mostly he's wrong; so he loses.........and in a way, those who engage him lose as well, since in many cases the only thing that's advanced is the level of angst. Oh well........what is it they say...........that's Usenet!!!! :-) Dudley Henriques Yeah, it is quite a shame. I think he is fairly intelligent, but his emotional disconnection with reality is more powerful. I've met people who are like this "in real life" too. I used to manage one. He was a very talented programmer. The team was able to work out how to deal with him for the most part, but in the end, he was invited to find work elsewhere, and he became someone else's problem. Like you say... That's Usenet... |

"Jose" wrote in message m... Just make sure its the LEFT foot!!! You might need the other one What does the right foot control on a T6 or P51? Left turning tendencies are quite high in powerful tailwheel airplanes. Actually, the T6 can get a bit hairy for BOTH feet on the rollout after landing. :-) The 51, the F8F and the P47 are fairly stable on landings but can keep you on your right foot a bit on takeoff.

Love of technology is fine, but the default way of VFR navigation is without instruments, just compass and a map. If you want to do it "properly", do it that way. I googled up this tutorial, it's actually aimed at flight simmers: http://stoenworks.com/Tutorials/Navi...0tutorial.html Looking through it, it seems to tell me mostly things that I already know. It does define RNAV, though, which I had never gotten around to looking up; it turns out that it simply describes something that I was already doing more than a decade ago. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |
