    I have my CFII. After 41 years of flying I had to stop due to health problems. I loved teaching instrument flying the best. as my students advanced in their training I would take them out on days when the birds were not flying. They all could shoot landing to mins in actual weather. They may never need to in their flying adventures but at least they new they could. Your videos are very good. Keep up the good work.

    Agreed. I used to call up my flight instructor when there would be rain for a long time and say, "Looks like a great day to fly!" We would look for airports where we could descend at or near minimums. That training paid off when I had to fly in to Tampa International. Broke out at minimums even after the controller turned me way to late and I was off course and in-between airliners.

    RE: the landing minimums section....the numbers in the parentheses are reported weather values. For example, Cat A and B aircraft need a reported weather of at least 700' ceilings and 1 mile visibility. Remembering that ceilings are measured in AGL, a ceiling of 700' is 1488' MSL, or 8 feet above MDA. Going to Cat C circling the MDA is 1500', so the lowest usable, reportable value for the ceiling must be 800'.

    Really great presentation. One little thing that should be emphasized is the descent angle of 3 degrees which in my mind is critical. I understand that timing from the FAF to the MAP gives you an approximate rate of descent but in today’s day and age, you may have avionics that gives you a flight path vector. In this specific case, a 3 degrees flight path vector meets the requirement for a CDFA of SCDA resulting in a much safer position to land the airplane once visual contact is established. The (old dive and drive) type of final descent is far from ideal. Safe flying to all.

    Description of the number on the top right at 1:57 is not strange to anyone that knows about the usefulness of Julian Calendars. It’s Year + Julian Day. When people used to purchase the tear-away calendars for office use, manufacturers usually printed the Julian Day somewhere to the upper right. If you needed to do something every set number of days (like 28 days which is common in aviation) it is easier to know what the deadlines are.

    Each approach will indicate a Missed Approach Point. You should only execute the missed AT that point. If the procedure has you do a climbing turn, you don't want to start it too early or too late because there's no obstacle protection for the turn from anywhere other than the missed approach point.

    So if you had lost communication and you follow the MSA for the sector that you are in, when is it safe to descend to the published minimum for the segment of the approach that you are on. For example, if the MSA is 25 nautical miles around the Initial approach fix, then, technically, would you go down to the minimum altitude at the initial approach fix it may be significantly lower than the MSA within the 25 miles that circles it. What I’m trying to ask is how do you know if you are clear of obstructions if you were going to descend to the initial approach fix Minimum? One more thing, suppose you are approaching the fix that requires a no PT or no procedure turn? How would you descend below the MSA and still be stabilized?

    Well, your altimeter or RA isn't that precise, it will only have a marking for "700" or "7" so you bug that. Also, it gives you some time for you and your plane to react. (Not an official source, that's just how I understand it)

    GA can shoot an approach under part 91 regardless of the weather. Part 121 airline operations are more restrictive but usually only visibility is controlling to commence the approach in the US. If the ceiling is below minimums it's typically not controlling but in that case you often don't bother trying. Either can only land if flight visibility is at or above minimums.

    It would be easier to just reference airspeed. However since the glideslope is based on the descent angle (altitude lost for a given distance travelled) the same airspeed with a high head wind would cause this angle to be lower.

    Thanks for replying. So how do I determine my ground speed with out doing some time and distance calcs? It sounds busy at a time when focus is paramount. Also then maintaing that ground speed during the descent and approach also sounds very busy. Do you think this is in the AIM?. Again thanks
