As some of you may know, I am already an IFATC Specialist. There is a 60 day minimum requirement explained by Tyler here that I do not meet. In the mean time, I will be practicing on my own. I’d really appreciate if you could stop by and help me out!
Approach types
-
ILS Approach
-
“The ILS consists of two beams, the Localizer (LOC), providing lateral guidance (left/right) and the Glideslope (G/S) providing vertical guidance (up/down).” - ATC Manual
-
GPS Approach
-
“The GPS Approach is defined by a series of waypoints and altitude restrictions that the pilot will follow to the runway threshold, free of conventional guidance such as a localizer/glideslope etc”. - ATC Manual
-
Visual Approach
-
“A visual approach is an approach to a runway at an aerodrome conducted under IFR but where the pilot proceeds by visual reference when cleared to do so. This means that the pilot must be visual before the Controller can clear the aircraft for the visual approach.” - ATC Manual
-
Radar Vectors
-
“Radar Vectors are primarily used to put aircraft into the VFR pattern for an airport.” - ATC Manual
Please let me know of any:
-
Loss of Separation
Terrain - < 1,000 ft AGLOther Aircraft - < 3 NM lateral, <1,000 ft vertical-
Bad Intercepts
- Please include how I can improve the intercept.
-
Any other feedback
- I always appreciate any other feedback on how I can improve!
- Airport, runways, and other information will be given each time I open.
- Regardless of the winds, please only use the runway(s) I announce.
- Please fly at a reasonable speed at all times.
- Please follow instructions I give as soon as possible.
