IFR RNAV Approach to 16R at Paine Field. Pretty Boring. It's an RV6A with a G3X and GTN650. #G3X #GTN650 #vansrv #gamrin

I'm here :) thanks for posting. In the absolute soup there. Just flew into Copalis last weekend for the first time.

There are some things that are best when they're boring. IFR approaches definitely qualify, the less excitement the better. The autopilot is not cheating, providing you always know what it's doing, it frees you up to pay attention to everything else.

I’m not IFR rated, but will probably start it the near future. This is a great visualization of the process, so thanks for posting the video. Liked it!

Great vid! I also like keeping the speed up on approaches - I fly 95 knots in my 9A, way faster than I fly a VFR final. The airplane feels super stable, the autopilot likes it better, I’m only shooting real life low approaches to long runways, and it’s easy enough to slow down (especially with a CS prop). As my instrument instructor once pointed out, a lot of people flying approaches screw up by hitting the ground short of the runway, but almost nobody goes off the far end. :) I’ve also decided on a 1000 foot ceiling (forecasted to be stable or improving) personal minimum, so real life is strictly “gentleman’s IFR” for me.

i have the same minimums after a recent IFR ticket - no lower than MVFR, and I'm assuming that the AP or will quit at the worst possible time and I would need to hand fly the approach. Still looking for an RV.. :)

In the RV-9A, I want to be stabilized at 80 knots about 10 seconds before minimums. (When there are airliners behind me, I've flown final as fast as 150 kt before slowing down at the last second.) 80 knots makes the go around easier, and I have the go around pitch attitude set low so that the plane doesn't lose speed changing attitude when I push TOGA. This way, there's plenty of time to get the flaps up and get some speed before selecting a climb mode. Then again, my personal IFR en route minimums are 1,000 foot ceiling so in case the engine goes poop, I've got options. (Got that idea from a Gulfstream test pilot who uses those minimums in his A36.) Of course, I always practice to published minimums. I've got G3X with the larger screens, so I put flight instruments in one half and the approach plate in the other, at least until established on final.

As one of the 6 or 7 who watch your videos, I always look forward to your next.

Great video! Thanks for doing the set up work to see out the window and all your screens on the approach. Maybe one day in my RV6

More important than the technology setting the bar for a good IFR platform... Size of tires.

The smaller, the better. Less cloud residue.
