crazy approaches
My flight school, got a new Frasca simulator which has every airport in
the world in it's database. I want to be able to make my students fly all sorts of weird/unusual/difficult approaches, but the only approaches that I am familiar with are the ones around here. There was this one my instructor gave me when I was getting my instrument which had a DME arc to the MAP, then the missed approach procedure was a climbing right turn to a VOR radial to track, then a hold at an intersection nonstandard turns. I have no idea which approach it was, but it was very crazy. What are some interesting approaches I can throw at my students? |

There's always the RNAV (GPS) RWY 16 at Pease International, NH. Not a hard approach to fly, but amusing waypoint names. -- Paul Tomblin http://blog.xcski.com/ "Guns don't shoot people.

Depending on what the available displays are in the Frasca,
a partial panel VOR using only an RMI.

That would be the VOR/DME TACAN Z RWY 15 approach for Baltimore/Martin State
(MTN) no straight segments in approach at all!

Show them the approach at KASE (Aspen) and ask them if the missed is
normal or reverse sensing (the missed is a localizer). Dave Butler wrote: Sam Spade wrote: Sounds like that one-of-a-kind DME ARC approach somewhere in Maryland. The VOR/DME OR TACAN Z RWY 15 at KMTN. |

Look up Hong Kong. There is, or used to be, a unique approach.

As I recall, TVC (Traverse City MI) has/had a DME ARC to the ILS with a climbing left turn on the missed to the VOR 5 mi south.
