Thanks, good refresher and repeat or core concepts. Just got my Instrument rating in Oct 2021 and I really (and I mean really) love hand flying approaches. Not sure why, just fun. Live in the Seattle area so lots of good practice conditions during the fall (before the freezing level drops, keeping me grounded).

Not a pilot, seasoned controller though. Great video! Like the advice to ask for delay vector or be boxed back around to buy some more time for whatever reason. That could save your life. Don’t ever hesitate to ask, even if controller may sound annoyed (but hopefully not). Doesn’t happen often but occasionally my turn to final/intercept is not good and I’d rather set someone up for the safest approach possible.

As a retired military pilot I suggest to do one step at a time, ie read the clearance back then turn, once rolled out decent. In other words: Don't make a descending turn while talking to ATC.

@loupitou06fl Жыл бұрын

Excellent video. Question: at the FAF, you mention reducing power and maintaining the pitch up to bleed up airspeed in order to pu the flaps. But with the autopilot activated and in approach mode, how do you hold the pitch ? Isn't the autopilot going to trim to keep the vertical speed you entered ?

@AirSafetyInstitute Жыл бұрын

With the autopilot activated, the autopilot will pitch the aircraft as appropriate to either maintain level flight or follow the glide slope down.

@timothyearnest131 6 ай бұрын

At (7:15) it is saying to set missed approach top altitude. It is probably best to set first altitude constraint. Reference KTEB ILS 19 missed approach instructions. Cross BUBGE at 1500’ then climb 3000. Not very common but there’s a reason! Setting top altitude you will fly through 1500’ maybe before the fix. Altitude bust and possibly traffic separation problems with KEWR (jet airliners). Also ref. Missed approaches for KSEA ILS 16 L,C,R have crossing at or below. Otherwise good video.

@lyingcat9022 Жыл бұрын

I believe the missed portion of the approach is equally important and easily as challenging probably more so(whole lot happening in a short period of time). I’m wondering why you guys chose to omit that section of your SOP in this video?

@alk672 Жыл бұрын

On the missed, do we want to maintain the final approach course heading or the heading that autopilot used to maintain the localizer course like you recommend? What's the legal meaning of "climb straight ahead"?

@AirSafetyInstitute Жыл бұрын

From an instrument flying handbook point of view, we want to be on that course. What ever heading allowed you to hold the localizer is the one you want outbound. Drift is a bad thing when you can’t see obstacles in the clouds.

Student instrument pilot here. Would someone kindly explain why Dan used 80 knots IAS for the final approach when the TPS and approach plate use 90 ground speed as standard? Is it a personal minimum preference or advanced technique? I also understand that 90GS is for non precision MAP timing, but I thought it also applied in general for all approaches.

@AirSafetyInstitute 11 ай бұрын

Hey there, There is no requirement to fly the approach at 90 knots. Dan chose 80 knots since it allows a little bit more time to get fully configured if you break out at minimums.

@JimAllen-Persona Жыл бұрын

Not a pilot here... so there's no downwind leg required on an IFR clearance? Sorry to be so obtuse. Also, why turn off the autopilot? Great video, thanks.

@AirSafetyInstitute Жыл бұрын

Correct, most instrument approaches are straight-in to a runway. It is important to turn off the autopilot before landing because almost all general aviation autopilots are unable to fully land the aircraft.

@ryanlegrand141 Жыл бұрын

Why not have the aircraft fully configured and on speed for landing by 1000'? The aircraft I've trained on has a final approach speed of 65kt, and I always thought it bizarre to be taught to fly an approach at flaps 10°, 90kt all the way to mins then make a last minute configuration and speed change which to me is the definition of an unstabalized approach

@edcew8236 Жыл бұрын

A holding pattern will take a lot of attention and not necessarily give you breathing room to figure out the first problem. Also, "ARM" isn't well-defined in all the manuals. You might have stated what ARM does in this system. And at many airports with jet traffic, ATC may appreciate a decelerating approach. On an ILS, is it decision altitude or decision height?

@jamesbraun7709 Жыл бұрын

In a 172 with standard instrument radios I made a few IFR approach and landings . I requested vectors to the localizer , entered the clouds at 4,500 , was guided to the localizer , entered the outer marker , kept my glide slope needles squared and at 400 feet popped out of the clouds on final and landed . It really isn't that hard at least for me .

IFR pilots take notice...please. Let me tell you something about spatial disorientation that I NEVER hear anyone talk about, but it was enough to convince me to never get my instrument rating. Many years ago I was at Universal City in LA taking a tram ride through the park. We stopped inside this round tunnel that was painted white with a black helical stripe painted through the length of the tunnel. The tram was dead still. Then the tunnel began rotating around us. Within seconds my head was slammed hard over onto my left shoulder and with all my strength I could not raise my head to the vertical. I was effectively paralyzed. The tram was right side up and stationary the entire time!! I believe this probably occurs in many such accidents attributed to spatial disorientation....one can become completely physically incapacitated and unable to manipulate the controls. Imho, single pilot IFR is simply too dangerous, especially if one is not aware of this risk. It's not simply a matter of flying the instruments. If one is paralyzed, you're probably going to die.

@JimMork 11 ай бұрын

This is interesting. At a very young age I thought being a flyboy would be the best. But years teach a person maybe those youthful enthusiasm reflect an imperfect understanding who you really are. That being said, the comment that answering ATC with its rapid fire quality may add to workload saturation. So hearing that, my instant question is, hey, this is the computer age. Can't software just emulate this forcing pilots to PRACTICE absorbing this and let the mind respond in a safe way? In the 1950s-60s, there really wasn't a substitute than learning on the job. But 70 years later, simulators and even personal computer software can "program" the pilot brain to slide into exactly what normally happens. Heck, controllers can WRITE the software!

Don’t do anything dumb, different or dangerous. I like to emphasize the “different” aspect. It’s very easy to F up when doing something different from anything you’ve trained before. Everything is way harder to first time around.
