That is all you have if you don't have a GPS. All conventional approaches and Victor/Jet Airways are defined in these terms.

There are quite a few differences between VOR/ILS navigation and RNAV navigation. VOR has radials, frequencies, OBS settings, ident, cross radials to determine fixes, regulatory IFR equipment check, service volumes. ILS has front course/back course, frequencies, ident. If you are flying with a...

That is an altitude preselect panel.

A WAAS GPS TSO C145/146 can be approved for sole source of navigation for IFR and fully meets 91.205(d)(2). A TSO C129 GPS requires other means of navigation to comply, so effectively requires VOR to be legal, although ILS capability is not required. A TSO C145/146 GPS can downgrade to LNAV for...

Here are a few screenshots where a CME (Sun Storm) wiped out LPV service for a fair amount of time and area. LNAV service was still available, but with an ILS capability as a backup would have been good to have.

This is valid only if pilot B is fully qualified to act as PIC with a passenger at night, that is Pilot A. If both were not night current, then neither could act as PIC because of the limitation in 61.57(b)(1), but if pilot B complied with this section and otherwise was qualified to act as PIC...

If you are referring to Pilot B, he is rated and current and can be acting as PIC. Pilot B has a passenger, Pilot A. Pilot A is rated, but can't act as PIC, because that would make Pilot B a passenger. So with Pilot B as the pilot acting as PIC, he can let his passenger, Pilot A, do the night...

I just went to the IFP gateway and did the advanced search. I have used this to find different kinds of approach procedures. I set the cycle to 2/23/2023 (TPP), Search for these Chart Types: IAP, and entered the search text "ILS RWY". The search came up with 347 results. Many were other than...

You must be new to these questions as they have been answered hundreds of times. Q1 You are rated, you can log PIC when you are sole manipulator of the controls, but not act as PIC because you don't have the required High Performance endorsement Q2 The rating is single engine - land, the Cirrus...

RF legs are supported in some installations of GTN and are in the database (see KRNO ILS Z or LOC Z Rwy 17R and KCRQ RNAV (GPS) X Rwy 24). They could technically be supported in the GNS, but this function was never enabled by Garmin, although Garmin did test it using GNS for an FAA Whitepaper...

@luvflyin I believe that is because some procedures have multiple charts, particularly ILS, like ILS OR LOC 36R ... ILS RWY 36R SA CAT I...ILS RWY 36R CAT II & III. My guess is that the FAA charts come along for the ride as a part of the selection logic.

Holds are included in all subscription levels of ForeFlight.

I sent an inquiry to to AFS-800. This was the response: I also asked this follow up question on Feb 1, 2023 and got a response it would be answered within 30 days.

I am so old I don't have a complex, high performance, or tail wheel endorsement and my MEI was also grandfathered. :)

I would be a little confused if the holding instructions at an RNAV fix included radial terminology since this only applies to a VOR, but would be OK with "Hold east of SUBIE ON the 270 track" and OBS would work fine for that because the track would use the current magnetic variation. If the fix...

You are pretty far from any ADS-B towers. The nearest is 53 NM to the west, I would not expect to receive reception probably below 1500 MSL at that location.

Sure, and with an Avidyne 440/540 it would also work.

So when I said "The technique only works if the aircraft is equipped with an FS510, so it would not apply to every situation.", I guess I wasn't keeping it in mind?

Why would one need to enter a reciprocal? I find it much easier to enter a route rather than go through the dialog for setting up a user waypoint and then adding the user waypoint to a route. In the OP case, I would simply enter "ABC ABC095049" to describe the radial route to the fix with a...

If you have ForeFlight and a FS510 with your GTN, the easiest way to define the radial and radial distance is to enter the VOR into the route, followed by the VOR/radial/distance and send it to the panel.
