What do you mean "intercept" the radial back to the VOR? Where will it show that you have intercepted the radial? Sorry for asking too many questions.
great videos. i think however a bit of clarification on 'Holding" should be put forth so some might understand 'when and where' ....holding applies. that being, "Holding" is primarily an IFR requirement. ATC will rarely ( see; most probably never) issue a Hold for a VFR pilot. that said, learning the HOLD maneuvers and rules is most definitely a good idea, for both VFR and IFR op's, and offers a more well-rounded curriculum for both classifications. enjoy the vids. keep 'em coming!
There is no holding pattern for VFR flight, the ATC will just tell you stay clear of "the area" and it is up to the pilot not to hit any obstacles or mountains, LOL, or not brake any rules.
But learning new things is a must for every good pilot. So you do bring up a very good point on always learning new things. Thanks
I was wondering about the teardrop; do yo establish the heading at the 1. Stave of the entry(30 degrees from the 'opposite' inbound) , do you set and intercept the course before passing the Fix - in this case - the vor?
Once over the fix, in this case the VOR, that is when you turn 30 degrees from the outbound course, a second too late or too early won't really make a difference, you just want to put yourself in that position to intercept the heading of 258 back to the fix (VOR).
Excellent videos. I'm doing my VFR right now and have looked and looked for help online via videos. Your content is great, your attention to detail is great, your pace of speech and timing is perfect and using the pc to illustrate the scenarios at high res and frame rates as well as your info-graphics are all together VERY well done. Wish there could be more people like you out there on YouTube. I suggest out your videos into an ipad or iPhone app and sell the app. (perhaps you are doing so alr
Thanks, many people including some CFI's say the content is good and makes sense, but in order for it to be usable tutorial for actual flying there needs to be a specific terminology that is used.
I'm just putting videos in the words I can understand for now. As I start my instructors training, I will remake a lot of these videos, as something I can use with my students. I'll first show them the video, then go over it and get paid for the whole time & have the best students ;)
Hey, I was looking at LYBE charts and I didn't see IAF anywhere on them. I see the racetracks and final fix but don't see iaf anywhere. How is it marked on european charts?
Sorry to bother you with this, I know you fly by US rules but i don't know anyone else that could know or explain it better.
Some charts like Kai Tak for example don't have IAF's, for these places you have to go to the arrival routes. So look at the arrival pages first and you will see that they bring you in to the points where you would start your approach into LYBE.
I know for sure that Pristina is another one of those where you have to use the arrival route. And as far as I remember, to land into Pristina, you can only do the XAXAN 17 of XAXAN 35 arrival, no matter where you're coming form
@FSX404 Oh, i see. So for the airports without IAF I use STAR. I was confused for a bit but now it's cool :)
Thanks!
I usually hop into cessna and after airborne i do missed app and then do vor/dme to land. that's the way i practice. It's much more fun than pmdg 737 autopilot doing everything for me LOL
If I keep watching these vids, I'm going to be bored to tears if I ever go to flight school. Excellent as always G. Your tutorials are by far the best.
Love this tutorial! Understood every single peace of it! You will deifnataly be a great instructor! Really hope to meat you one time, when I start flying!
Kind of makes basic VOR lessons easy by comparison, like Algebra to Calculus, LOL, as I said, one step at a time, one approach at a time.
You don't have a "time limit" in which you have to brief the approach you are doing (as long as you are on the ground, LOL), take your time and do it one step at a time (on the ground before you even take off).
I will be an instructor in hopefully a 1-2 years, depending on how much money I have to get flying hours, its very expensive to get to your CPL and CFII/CFII rating, but I'll get there eventually, then I can start charging you guys for all these videos, LOL
In parallel entry, how you get that heading 228 after doing SRT is there any rule or in other word, how we would intercept the inbound heading, is there any specific heading that we would fly to intercept the VOR after flying outbound?
Like in teardrop entry after flying to the fix, turn outbound to
30 degrees is te rule when intercepting a VOR, but you have to keep in mind that you are very close to the VOR and that the needle is going to move very fast once it starts moving, and you do have only a few seconds to intercept it. But you don't have to be perfect, you just have to be in the position to do the rest of the approach.
I'm thinking of adding videos on these things, just to show you guys what it is going to look like inside the plane, because everything happens fast
Great explanation and very graphic.
Thank you very much
