Mooney M20E IFR Flight to Spokane [Actual IMC/ILS Approach/KSFF/Rain]

Ойын-сауық

This was my first ever true IFR flight while acting as PIC towards my instrument rating...and boy was it a challenge at the end! I got to hand fly the ILS into Felts Field with zero visibility. I have to say that the many hours I spent on FSX in Vatsim practicing really paid off! Thanks to my CFI Charlie for the great experience.

    Ladies and gentlemen, this video has convinced me what I need to do with my 3K in savings. I'm going to acquire my IFR ticket again. Just an AWESOME video. Thanks for sharing.

    Thanks for sharing - great video. It was funny - ATC thinks she setting you up for any easy visual that turns into a low ILS approach with a 90 degree 20 knot cross wind! Nice job!

    Its amazing what we actually learn from Vatsim isnt it? Being a controller really helps with radio communications.

    Hi, nice avionics and panel! I am a M20e owner with a stock original panel. Could you tell me what type of autopilot is mounted on your M20e? Is this an Aspen MFD? Thanks

    I did not notice if you had on board radar or storm scope. When you made the deviations you made them based on visual assessment of the build up. What if you had been in cloud and could not see those build ups. How would you have avoided them? Thanks.

    Allan Haggar Allan, that is the beauty of the ground controllers. They see it all. They will vector you around the weather best they can, but you also have some responsibility in it as well. We did have a radar, it was on the tablet via ForeFlight using cellular data.

    Yeah, great experience & nice job with the IMC, but forget that for a moment; if I heard correctly, you had a 90 degree crosswind from your right at 10 knots, with gusts to 17!?! It looked like you might have been slipping the plane, but I couldn't really tell. Just curious, but if that's true, I would have thought that would have been the real challenge. LOL

    Thanks! Yeah it was a decent crosswind. I had a decent wind correction angle going during the approach, and had to do a sideslip for the touchdown, yes. I didn't do to well, looking back though. So much for that centerline. ;)
