Eventually every instrument pilot gets a slam dunk approach. Here's a technique to be ready for them, and even use them as a tool at your command.

  • type "short guy dunks" in the youtube search box to see a 5'5 guy dunking a 10ft hoop

  • @MetaView7 You missed the whole point of the video, they are programming the best computer in the cockpit. This computer sits between the pilots ears and requires no software updates and instead of electricity it burns oxygen which the pilot is supplying just by breathing!

  • quite technical for a slam drunk....

  • at 1B9 ?

  • Good tutorial, and nice execution on that ILS.

    It's really helpful to know what power settings will yield what performance characteristics in different configurations, that way even on a VFR landing, you aren't sawing the throttle around or flying inconsistent airspeeds on final. For my aircraft, on an ILS it's 13" of MP level, 11" for the descent and 9" on short final. Works every time.

  • Great video. A great way to figure out what to do with the airplane when you're getting vectors for an ILS in KTEB with a whole slew of jets in the approach sequence!

  • CFIs: I'm not sure if this is a good thing to teach... Definitely not a good thing to advocate accepting slum dunks... I understand there are times when being able to blend into the traffic would be nice but don't let ATC fly your plane...

  • Very good video, thanks.

  • Going out and trying it. I need to get recurrent again anyway, plus, it's finally warm enough.

  • interesting video
