L3 IFR Procedures

Question 1

Standard Approach Calls to the DA/MDA

Answer 1

LOC Alive
GS Alive
Within One Dot
500' above DA/MDA
200' above
100' above
DA/MDA

Question 2

Standard Approach Calls at/past DA/MDA

Answer 2

• Approach Lights, continue/Go Visual/Go Missed

- Landing/Missed Approach

Question 3

What airspeed do we fly for a hold in an SR20?

Answer 3

120 knots

65% power/22”MP

Question 4

How will you execute a Precision Approach in an SR20? (Airspeeds and configurations)

Answer 4

3 min/nm out from IAF (or FAF as applicable) - 110 knots (55% power/23” MP)

1 Dot below GS - Reduce power 25%/12”MP, Flaps 50%, 100 knots

**1/2 Dot below GS - Before landing checklist complete

GS intercept - follow down and make Standard Approach Calls

Question 5

How will you execute a NON-Precision Approach in an SR20? (Airspeeds and configurations)

Answer 5

3 min/nm out from IAF (or FAF as applicable) - 110 knots (55% power/23” MP)

(When inbound, set ALT bug to MDA. If using GPS make sure APRCH Mode is activated)

0.5 miles to FAF - Reduce power 25%/12”MP, Flaps 50%, 100 knots

**Before landing checklist complete

FAF - Reduce power to maintain 100 knots while descending around 700fpm

Make Standard Approach Calls

MDA - Level off, set power to 55%/23”MP to maintain 100 knots until VDP/MAP is reached

Question 6

If at the DA we announce “Approach Lights Continue” what does this allow us to do?

Answer 6

Descend below the DA to a height of 100’ above TDZE

Question 7

What airspeed should you maintain while executing a circling approach?

Answer 7

75 KIAS (max gross WT)

Question 8

How do we calculate Vref if not specified, and what is its significance?

Answer 8

1.3 X Vso

Approximate speed for flying a stabilized final approach.

Question 9

Instrument takeoffs:

Answer 9

Hold breaks, Power 50%/22”MP

Instruments aligned

Release brakes, Power 100%, engine parameters check

Vr 67 knots, rotate

Climb out at Vy (96) until 50’ AGL

500’ AGL climb check and cruise climb at 105 knots

Maintain rwy HDG until 1000’ AGL unless DP or ATC insturctions

Question 10

Sample Approach Briefing:

Answer 10

Approach, location.
Frequency tuned and identified.
Inbound course is 095°, and is set on the HSI.
GPS 1 and PFD are set for the approach and crossfilled into GPS 2.
Initial altitude is 2000’, DA is 255’, TDZE is 55’.
Missed approach is runway heading to 1000’ then a climbing left turn to 2000’ direct to the Sanford NDB and hold.
Standard calls.
