Published holding pattern
D- direction of hold in relation to fix
F-fix
E-EFC time
Position reports should include…
I- ID, aka tail number P-position T-time, type of flight plan A- altitude N-name of next fix E-ETA at that fix S-supplemental information
Non-published holding pattern
D- direction of hold in relation to fix F-fix R- radial of hold A- altitude T-turns E-EFC time
What are the max holding airspeeds?
- up to 6,000….200kts
- 6,001-14,000….230kts
- 14,001- above…265 kts
How can we identify a missed approach point?
- time from the final approach fix
- DME
- cross radial
- DH
- circling when you lose right of the RWY
When is a procedure turn not required?
AIM 5-4-9
- when there is a “NoPT” remark at the IAP
- otherwise directed by ATC
- radar vectored to final
- timed approaches from a holding fix
- holding or teardrop depicted in lieu of PT
Logging instrument time
a. 61.51 g(1)
b. 61.51 g(3i-ii)(4)
a. Solely by reference to instrument under actual or simulated
- an authorized instructor may log instrument time when conducting instrument flight instruction in actual instrument conditions
b. Location and type of each approach, safety pilot if required, flight simulator may be used by a person to log instrument time provided an authorized instructor is present
Recent experience requirements to act as PIC under IFR (within 6months)
61.57 c
- 66HIT
- passenger currency (90 day rule) 3 landings
- have an additional 6months after PIC currency expires (6months) to complete these requirements before IPC is required (61.57d)
- safety pilot must be rated in same category and class with medical and PPL
When must we file an alternate?
91.169
- 1hr before or after ETA, 2000’, 3 mile vis
- if airport of intended landing has only GPS approach
- you can file an alternate airport that has a WAAS enabled GPS approach only given that the weather meets the non-precision approach mins
What are standard alternate mins
91.169
- precision: 600’, 2 mile vis @ ETA
- non-precision: 800’, 2 mile vis @ETA
VFR day
