chart heads-up by
Jose
To get back into practice I fired up MSFS 2002 and grabbed a random (out
of date) chart to fly. It was the Bangor BGR ILS 33 approach (amdt 10B
03079, regular NOAA chart). So I gave the chart a quick glance, set up
the nav frequencies as listed in the chart, and went flying. It took a
few...

Non-Reciprocal LOC & BC by
Ron Rosenfeld
This was from another group.
At KBOI, until the current release, the approach charts showed, for the
ILS10R and LOC BC 28L approaches magnetic courses of 100° and 278°
respectively.
The JEPP charts were changed with the current release; but the NACO charts
probably still show...

why is intercept altitude labeled "LOC only"? by
Gary Drescher
In the NACO plate for ASH ILS 14, the GS intercept altitude (1800') is
labeled "LOC only". How can a GS intercept altitude apply to the LOC
approach and not to the ILS approach? Is this a charting error?

FAA Order 8260.19C, "Flight Procedures and Airspace," Paragraph 852(d) (1):
(1) Fix altitudes established on ILS for
LOC-only use should be coincident with the glide slope
when possible. Where the fix altitude is not within
feet of the glide slope, annotate it for LOC use as
follows:

LOC Note, How Many? by
Sam Spade
Any LOC Only notes anyone finds on an NACO ILS chart where the G/S
altitude is the same, please post them here. The one who posts the most
gets a no-host, no expenses paid, trip to OKC to tour the approach
procedure factory.

for Muslims to leave the U.S. – particularly Washington and
New York – in anticipation of a major terror attack to rival

Flight Plan Equiment Codes? by
Mitty
A friend just asked me what code to file with his KNS-80 RNAV. I told him that
I thought it was /I but that I usually filed /A with a KNS-80 because I didn't
want ATC to surprise me with an RNAV approach or some kind of weird RNAV
routing. (I don't use a KNS-80 often enough to be really...

Another Weird KLN94 Problem by
gwengler
I had a bizarre problem on my KLN94. The display itself is totally
fine (i.e. the moving map shows everything correctly, all pixels are
OK); however, on almost all other text pages, there is information
missing. For example, the groundspeed is not showing on the NAV page,
or a frequency on an APT...

Questions about the FAA by
IIHKTWIKNIWHPMOC
If you were to grade the FAA today 9/14/2006 what would you
give it?
Do you think the FAA should be privatized and self funding
rather than a empire building tax whore?

Instrument rating prerequisites by
[email protected]
Hi all.
A quick question about getting the Instrument rating: you have to have
50 hours of cross-country pilot-in-command time, right? How is
cross-country time defined for this purpose? I couldn't find anything
in the FAR AIM that defines it. I guess maybe it is the same as the
definition for the...

9/11 ATC operations by

I asked a question of this newsgroup a year or more ago about
the 9/11 hijackings' impact on ATC personnel. Somebody gave
a wise ass answer that this was classified.
It now has been "declassified" and the Discovery Channel
had a program about the very subject. The program answered

Unusual Honeywell KLN94 aviation GPS failure - what could causethis? by
Dave S
I have seen that indication when the antenna did not have a clear view
of the sky.
The installed aircraft was an EADS/Socata TB-9 with gull wing doors.
Coming out of the pad, the pilot's door when up (as it was in the
summer) would obscure much of the sky and not allow the GPS to get a...
