Excuse me?

You don't know what 666 means in reference to IFR?

One you have your IFR ticket, you must get 6 hours of instrument time and 6
instrument approaches in 6 months to stay IFR current. Otherwise you will
need an Instrument Comp Check. Thus, 666 is an easy way to remember that.

You still need the 6 approaches in 6 months, but the 6 hours was
eliminated several years ago.

Except the first 6 doesn't mean 6 hours of instrument time any more. It
looks to me like a graphical description of a hold with a direct entry; then
it'd be more accurate :-)

Fair enough. Shows I need to go through the full course again. I'll just
buy the King tapes. I haven't flown in a long time.

Why don't you just pick up a recent copy of the AIM for ten bucks? It's
probably more affordable for you on that warehouse salary.

No wonder I hadn't heard it-- it's no longer true.

What I learned was Six approaches, Holding, Intercepting, and Tracking, and
you have to do all that sh*t within the last six months.
