I wrote in about this a couple of years ago. Let me share the response..... ILS RWY 31 Salinas (SNS) Hello, Thank you for your time. With regards to the SNS ILS RWY 31 approach chart, I am having difficulty identifying the IAF where SNS R-107 meets the ARC at SNS 22NM. I am inquiring in case...

I agree with Ryan F. You can start with the Instrument and commercial ratings. That will give you more experience to decide whether other options can serve you better.

Many people think "activating" the approach does something magical to make the approach waypoints work. That's not what it is at all. It just means it will make one of the waypoints of the approach active. Or the final approach segment, in cast of VTF. You can do this yourself by going to the...

Of course. You know that. I know that. Just wasn't sure if he knew that.

What did you do to "activate" the approach after you selected it? I've never had the problem you described. By your saying "sequencing just fine", how did you determine that? Nav systems are NOT immune from bugs and that's why close monitoring of the system's progress and knowing what it is...

Maybe someone will come along and correct me, but I don't believe there is a difference. Otherwise, what are you supposed to do if you chose to just "LOAD" the approach. You have to do what you just said.

Garmin's use of the term "Activate" is unfortunate. When you select an approach, all it means is load the approach waypoints into the flight plan and change the "active" waypoint to the IAF. Or make "active" the segment the navigator determines you haven't flown past if selecting VTF. If it's...

Welcome! That's a pretty 210...the model with gear doors! I've flown into the Riverside airport a few times as my son attended UCR. Never been to Cable though. Hope to hear stories of your flying the 210 soon.

i agree with this, but I can see how it does not match up with the language of the reg.

That's what I do and what I recommend.

I don't follow what you're saying. In my scenario, “within six calendar months preceding the month of the flight” equals 0.

OK... what everyone is saying is... Suppose I am just out of IFR currency, having done six approaches and holding procedures just over six months ago (all in one day - or, better yet - just completed my IFR checkride). So, I am only one month out of currency but no approaches or holds in the...

My friend's warranty replacement came in so I flew with him to have his unit swapped out yesterday. All works fine, now. Best of luck with yours.

This makes for a HUGE difference. You shouldn't be worried. (Assuming you trust your instructor.)
