so the route we're gonna take for this demonstration flight is from here starting from here Mike golf Yankees the airport - Charlie Charlie Juliette it's an NDB station and then to plumb intersection and then our two Tartu intersection and then that's the destination which is Portsmouth Regional Airport it's a total distance of a hundred and thirty nautical miles this is just just for practicing the Garmin 430 setup I have our procedures and the autopilot setup and so on so this here is the X plane setup it's a Cessna 182 RG we have a Garmin 430 here a GFC 500 autopilot - g5s and a tablet first task is to get our clearance which I will play November 7 three one one Sierra Colbert leaves you're cleared for the portsmouth region climb and maintain 3000 expect 5,000 1 0 minutes after departure departure frequency is 1 1 8 point 8 5 squawk 5 2 2 1 okay so let's use that clearance so the parts of frequency was one 1885 which we can put her into our standby and the active is the seat tab from 20 to 8 and transponder is 5 2 to 1 we'll go ahead and set up the route on the Garmin 430 if you hit the flight plan it'll take you to the active flight plan which is currently empty we're going to put our flight plan into the catalog which is flight plan to all the saved flight plans we'll stay here right now there's none so let's go ahead and create a new flight plan with the Menu key and start from all airport where you're starting which is Mike Gulf Yankee sometimes it's faster to go backwards in the alphabet and the next fix is Charlie Charlie Juliet and the next one is plumbed and the next one is Tartu and then our destination which is peplum like hotel so we have the flight plan loaded starting from my coffee M key ending it at the destination we could also load in the expected approach at the destination by hitting the Menu key and scrolling down there is the Select approach and by default it'll bring up the destination airports approaches and we're gonna pick the are denied one eight and then it'll ask for the transition we can pick vectors or any one of those other transitions let's just say move transition and then load and now if we scroll down past the end of the flight plan you'll see the approach has been loaded in there's the a mood and not that's the final approach fix and the missed approach point at the runway and the missed hold so they're all loaded in so if we get out of this by exiting the cursor and the flight plan has been saved it uses the source and destination airports that the default name for the flight plan we could now go ahead and select it and activate it and activation puts it into flight plan page number one that's the active flight plan and it'll also activate the leg that's appropriate for our current location so we are sitting on the ground at this Airport so it'll it knows this is the appropriate leg to activate so flight plan has been activated on the GPS so the best screen to remain during flight is the nav page one it shows the CDI leg the active leg the track desire track and the actual track distances and ground speeds altitudes and times and so on if you go to nav - it'll show a map page this is our active leg and then the next legs are shown in white if you zoom out you can see the rest of them so this will glance at this once in a while but our main page is going to be nav water we could also go and set up our tablet and I've already loaded a map in here so this is route this is a image from Sky vector that's calibrated for this route so this is going to show us that position and there the little icon is going to follow along the track so we had those set up we can also go set up the autopilot so our first altitude is 3,000 feet so we can dial in 3000 and it's going to show it's showing up right here there's 3,000 feet we're gonna get a heading on departure so we'll engage that once we get once we get the information we're going to hold a certain vertical speed through that 3000 and the vertical speed let's say is thousand feet a minute and the heading will put the heading in once we get that number so our next step is to get our release from for this clearance November 7 3 1 1 Sierra you are the least Parcher enter controlled airspace on a heading of zero six zero clearance white in five minutes time now one five three two zero okay we got a release we're supposed to enter a controlled airspace on a heading of zero six zero so we can put that in here zero six zero there it is zero six zero so let's give it one check over you got one 1885 dialed in five two two on on this clock we are on alt mode zero six zero vertical speed of a thousand so it should be all set to go we can get the gear up and we could turn on the autopilot which will take us on a heading of zero six zero and a thousand feet a minute and we could also switch to the departure frequency okay that's the 1,000 foot alert prior to reaching the 3000 feet set altitude and since we're at a safe altitude we can pull the power back to the top of the green there's the 200-foot alert and it switches to altitude mode and levels off November 7 3 1 1 Sara climb to 5000 proceed on course okay so in our regular instruction to climb to 5000 so we can set that to 5 and vertical speed we'll set it to a thousand feet again so it's climbing at a thousand feet a minute to five thousand and we are told to resume the course and we're right now on the hitting mode zero six zero so we should which is almost the same as our desired course zero five six but we should switch the autopilot from heading mode to nav mode so when I do that it's going to now track the GPS course and we can take a peek at the nav 2 page [Music] there it is the map page we are still on the same course as expected and it'll get sweet sequence to the next leg once we cross that go back to our one-page it's about 20 miles to go and there's the thousand-foot polaron again and it's going to give us an alert and switch from vertical speed to altitude there's this 200 alert and there's the switch it's leveling off okay so it's going to continue this course up to the next nav aid which is 18 miles away okay we're getting close to the first fix Charlie Charlie Juliet and as we get close it's gonna switch and turn and switch to us which I'll lag to the next next Waypoint to plumb it's one mile to go here it's giving us a turn guidance zero seven seven is going to be the next heading and they're starting the turn you see the direction indicator is also returned and the leg is already switched to plumb and if we have to page you can see that here the next leg is now active the one in purple is the active the white ones are inactive lines okay so we're going to proceed on up to the next fix plumb and then from there we're going to turn again to the next next fix which is Tartu okay so we are coming up to plum one mile to go and the next heading is going to be 128 there it is turning turn in direction so that leg is 46 miles the turtle is 46 miles away so now let's say instead of continuing on what we want to do is to fly a practice approach into this Airport here Lancaster Fairfield County Airport which is down here vo our alpha approach off of the vor station that's up here and that approach is knocked and aligned to the runway it's in fact it's very close to I need agrees to the runway so we want to fly that practice approach and then continue on to our destination [Music] so we're gonna call up ADC and request that approach 1 1 ser Rodrik turn left heading 0 3 0 descend and maintain 3000 okay so we got our instruction to turn to 0 3 0 so we should cut that into the heading bug three zero it's not going to turn because we are still currently flying on we can take it out of the nav and it's still not going to turn because the server's I engaged but it's not giving it any guidance where to go so now if we put a push in the heading it'll start the turn two zero three zero next we have to descend to 3,000 so we can put in 3,000 feet again is not going to descend until we go to vertical speed and dial in and require very low speed so there it is descending and turning at the same time we should call back a little bit so it doesn't get too fast so so there it is it's the leg act active leg is to aplomb to Tartu but we are flying away from it on a zero three zero heading you can take a look on an app to page and there's the active leg okay so now we need to load the approach into the flight plan to go into the active flight plan the approach that's there is the are denied one eight that we originally loaded that's for the Portsmouth Airport not not the one for Lancaster so we need to replace that with the Lancaster approach unfortunately on the 430 you can only load one approach so there's room for one approach that we have to replace this approach with the Lancaster's approach and then be able to replace it again we want to resume our course to Portsmouth so that's what we're gonna discuss we're gonna discuss the how to put in new approaches in here and a few other little details about the Garmin 430 and then we'll also discuss a few details about the GFC 500 autopilot so during this discussion I'm just gonna let the airplane fly on this heading and I would just after that I'll reposition the airplane back here and then continue on the approach okay how to load an approach into the 4:30 it could be a bit confusing because there's multiple ways you could do it but once you understand the logic behind it it starts to make a lot more sense so what you got to do is find the page that contains the approach the approach is in the Waypoint menu page number four so the first method to lowered an approach is to go to that page so we are our nav menu page one if you go to Waypoint page one is just the name of the airport you could go to page two which contains runway information page three contains frequencies this is useful because you could actually highlight the frequency and so if you hit enter it'll put that frequency into standby which is very convenient compared to typing frequencies enter was understand by then you can activate it but page four is where the approaches are so this is where we were originally when we loaded the approach by default is bringing up the airport that we viewed last time on the Waypoint waypoint menu so now what we have to do this time is to change the airport code to Lancaster so we can do that okay that's Lancaster hit enter it goes to the approach page that shows the one approach but you can use the small knob to invoke that pulldown menu and then you'll see VOR alpha here it enter goes to the next box what typo transition there's two here vectors so a PE the vor let's pick that so we've selected everything and now we have to load it into the flight plan page and that's in here and menu you can say load into active flight plan or load and activate let's just hit load and now in the flight plan page you will see this approach loaded in so there's your alpha starting at Appleton chubby mango and then missed approach hold at the same you all right so that's method number one of how to load the approach in is the disadvantage of doing it that way going to waypoint page and then Waypoint for and then typing in everything there's a lot of keystrokes there's another way you can do it so this is Method number to go to the nearest airport page and rst the first page is Airport second one is intersections and ndb's and various things so we want the airport if you could find the airport you want on this page here then that'll save you from typing in the airport so let's go down the list and see if lancaster is here it may not depending on how far away it is there's only limits a certain number of airports listed here okay it's not here so the airport is a little too far away that's okay so we'll just for example here let's say we wanted instead to fly the approach had this Airport Mansfield you can hit enter hit enter it'll take you to waypoint page number 1 automatically so it helps you not for and it'll also type in the airport code so it let it'll save you the trouble of having to type in that if you hit enter here it's gonna say done and return it back to where you were which is not what you want and by this time the position of the airport might have changed because this airplane is moving so you got to go back in there you can disable the cursor and then go to Waypoint to page runways and frequencies and then back to a point 4 which is where the approaches so here is this Airport code that you didn't have to type in this time and then you can go down here to approaches and pick one it states that and then you can load and it's loaded into the active flight plan so this is method number two it's got a slight advantage you didn't have to type in the airport if you're buried inside some menu system and you want to get back to the home screen which is nav one press and hold CLR that'll always bring it back it's the shortcut to get to the home page okay so the third method you have to go into the flight plan now you could be in the active flight plan or on the saved flight plan let's go into the act hit menu and scroll down there is a command called select approach this is actually a prompted method it'll kind of walk you through and it'll pull down the menus for you make it a little bit easier to start to enter they approach so select approach if you hit enter it'll take you to the approach that you lash load it in so it's it's brought you to Waypoint four page you didn't have to scroll through it it's brought in to 8.4 page and it's put the cursor into the approach field and it's turned that little knob and shows is showing the pulldown menu so it's done all of that for you all you got to do if you want to change the approach for example is to go down approach but in this case let's say we want to you know we want to pick a different airport right so let's go back to the field and you do have to type it in there's no way our on that Lancaster you know you see that it's automatically activates the pulldown menu let's go down or alpha and then it'll show a load a load and activate into the flight plan so it's a little faster than all the other methods because it walks you through it pulls down the menus for you to for you to see also I should point out that it changed the name of the flight plan they did that every time we put it in an approach it picks up the name of the airport whose approach it is and then post that into the flight plan it doesn't really change the sequence of your waypoints we're still going to Portsmouth but as far as the approach is concerned it thinks the flight ends at Lancaster just to point words to remember he's gonna change his name every single time you so that's the third method of putting in an approach the advantage of that is that it'll walk you through and it will pull down the menus for you okay and the fourth method the last method is by far the most used method is to go to proc and if there's an approach that is already loaded in by default is going to say okay you won't activate the approach but we want to select a different approach you knew that to enter and it's going to show the last approach that you picked let's say we want to change it or you want it you can even go and change the airport code you could disable the cursor go back here and type in a different airport let's try something different that Airport I don't know where that is but let's say it is and this different transition and there it is it's loaded that approach and it's also changed the flight plan name for so these are four different methods of loading approaches into it but by far the simplest one is proc because the nice thing about proc is that you could be anywhere in the menu system you could be doing something deep inside doing something like this you hit proc it'll bring you back to that menu so that's pretty convenient you don't need to navigate or you don't need to do a lot of button pushing to get to that menu then you can select approach it the rest of it is the same and again the useful thing as I mentioned before CLR press and hold CLR to come back to so here is a little diagram to kind of illustrate all the different methods of entering an approach you can go to waypoint menu pick page one and then find your way to a point four that's the approach page and then load and activate put a nearest and then go to a point four Waypoint one and then Waypoint for it'll save you typing in the airport code you can go into the flight plan page hit the menu to invoke the Select approach prompted command and that will take you to a point four but it'll pull down the menus for you or from anywhere in the system you can pick proc and then select approach and it'll do the same thing so these are four different methods of achieving the same objective if you want to restore the flight plan to a previous state since we've obviously messed this up by putting different approaches it's going somewhere else with a different approach you could go into the saved flight plan that we made originally made I like that at menu and when you activate it'll delete everything that was in the active flight plan and replace it with the original flight plan it'll also activate the appropriate leg based on your position since we are still between plum and tart or even though we are quite a bit of ways from it we are way out there but we are still between these two waypoints therefore it activates that like for you next let's talk a little bit about the vectors to final what that means we need to load an approach let's let's just go into the nearest page see what's nearby there is there's here this airport nearby let's hit let's pick a [Music] this one and let's leave it on vectors even though there's others many other transition you're going to leave it on vectors loaded into the active flight plan and there it is is put it in changed the flight plan name so what is vectors did file so this approach begins at the final approach fix that's the name of the final approach fix there's the missed approach point and then missed hold so even though it's showing the final approach fixed as the first point of the approach technically it really begins somewhere behind the final approach fix a few miles behind it and that becomes the leg that becomes activated so we can actually see that if you go to nav 2 so here is the approach it's not activated that's why it's showing in white this is the final approach fix and this line here it starts from out here somewhere and ends at the final approach fix that becomes the vtf flag or vectors to final leg if we go and activate the approach when appraoch activate vectors to final we've already picked vectors to final so it really doesn't matter at this point whether we pick this or this the in fact the effect is the same so it's activated that leg if you zoom out a little bit further you will see ok it starts out here and several miles out and then it comes and ends here so this is the active leg it starts from a point that is behind the final approach and ends at the final port fix we expect it to fly around and intercept this leg anywhere in this leg and then the sequencing will begin just like any other on groups navigation you if you're if you're off course you got to find your way intercept it and then proceed on course on the other hand if you select a different so same airport but our different transition let's say this nanny transition let's go ahead and activate it here it's act the first leg if you go into the flight plan it's taking you direct to nanny and then I'll hold and then the final approach fix is not taking you to the final port fixed directly it's taking you to the initial approach fix and on this page you can see this is your course that you need to fly to get to the initial approach and then there's a holding pattern do a course rehearsal followed by of course so that's the difference between picking a initial approach fixed as a transition and picking the final approach fix as a transition if you pick an initial approach fix it'll draw a straight line from your current position to that initial approach fix if you pick a btf it's going to draw a line behind the final approach fix extending a certain number of miles and activate that leg and leaves it up to you to find your way around and intercept that there is another important aspect that we should discuss and that's when the GPS go into what's known as the suspend mode it'll be eliminated here su SP when it's suspending the auto sequencing function of the GPS and that can happen in a few scenarios and it's important to know why it's doing that and what to do about it let's pull up the approach chart to discuss that so here's a vor alpha approach into Lancaster so if you're flying this approach past the final approach fix here descending towards the runway as you are crossing the missed approach point of Matco the GPS will go in to suspend mode it's doing that for several reasons one is that there's a certain amount of hand flying that the pilot has to do after the missed approach point namely climbing straight ahead to 2,000 left turn climbing to 3,000 and then head back to the vor so all of that has to be done by the pilot so it goes into suspend if it doesn't because the next action of the GPS will be to direct you towards the vor that's the missed approach hold so you don't want to start turning like this if you're an auto pilot and it automatically sequences you you we'll turn to suit so it goes into suspend mode and once you've completed all these steps by hand then you could unsuspended GPS by pushing the OBS key to on suspended so it's a very common scenario happens on every single approach that's important to keep in mind and there is a second way how the suspend mode will be invoked and that is if you activate an approach while on the wrong side of the final approach takes meaning that you are passed the final approach fix let's say you are here at this point somewhere here attempting to go this way to intercept the final approach course on a vectors to file so you're being vectored like this and intercepting here but you are past the final approach fix in the sense of flying inbound so you are here so in this case the GPS doesn't know whether you want to go to the mist approach point or whether you're intending on flying the full approach like this in that case it'll go into a suspend mode as well and if you unsuspended at that point if you're sitting here and you unsuspended it'll take you directly to the mist approach point which is not what you want so what you want to do is wait till you're on the correct side of the approach and then on suspend and then it'll sequence you correctly the reason that option is there is because let's say you're flying along like this and you are somewhere here and for whatever reason you have to reset and reload or reactivate the approach in that case you don't want to go backwards and starts again you want to continue the approach so in that case you would hit on suspend and it'll sequence you to the mist as as expected so since there are two possible scenarios when you are here you could be wanting to go to the missed approach point if you are already on the approach but if you just start in the approach you'll have to go and intercept it behind the final approach fix so it goes into suspend mode and you wait until you get to behind the final projects and then on suspend it so that's two places where you see the suspend and you will also see it when entering a hold if the hold is indefinite then it will stay on this suspend until you on suspend it and there are some times you have to do a course reversal which looks like a hold there it'll unsuspended only once the second time you passed the fix it will unsuspended and let you fly in okay let's talk about the autopilot this is a Garmin GFC 500 autopilot I should point out that these this little display here for the commanded vertical speed is not really there and the real thing I just put it in there because in this display normally shows up on the g5 here except in this particular implementation in explain I don't have that display so so I decided to put a little display there it's not really there on the the autopilot itself is divided into three sections the control section in the middle heading lateral navigation on the left and vertical navigation altitudes and vertical speeds on the right-hand side this is the on/off key basically it energizes or D engages the autopilot if you disengages it if you disengage it it's gonna give you an alert a tone so you know it's Auto pilot is off this is a flight director which should normally show a purple flight director on the g5 again on this particular implementation I don't have that so it's not really doing anything at the moment the blue key is a emergency recovery key to get into an unusual attitude and want to recover pressing this would bring you back to straighten level level the wings and pitch for straight level flight on the left hand side you have lateral navigation so right now we are on a heading mode our heading is 0 3 0 and if I change that to 6 0 for example it's going to bank and turn towards that heading and if you are hand flying it for example and you're at some heading so you're not on the heading control you're some other heading and heading bug it's somewhere else and if you were and flying it up to this point before you engage the heading control you should bring this heading bug to our current heading but there's an easy way to do that if you push it it'll sync the current heading bug to our current heading so it'll move the heading bug to the current heading so and then you can engage the heading control nav does the same thing except it will try to track idle try to intercept the CDI to Center the CDI so it's going to fly it pick a heading and fly towards towards that to Center the CDI and capture the CDI and keep it centered that's the nav function approach is pretty much the same as the nav except it also has vertical control it'll descend on a glide path towards the runway on the right hand side we have coarse altitude control and we can dial in a different altitude if you dial it different altitude like this it doesn't climb on its own unless you also put in a vertical speed and if you want to just bring it back to the current altitude you can just push it that will sync the current altitude so you can climb at a particular vertical speed you could also climb at a particular particular indicated airspeed rather than vertical speed this one is not implemented on this explained model so I can't show you that this is the vertical speed control so you roll it down to go up and you down just like the trim wheel on the airplane okay so at this point I'm gonna bring it back to the original course where we were before we took that zero three zero heading turn we are way outside here right now so I need to reset everything back on the GPS go into flight plan I'm on some other approach here but I can go into the catalog select that's the original flight plan can activate and back to what it was still holding the plum card to a leg and now I can manually move the airplane back to the original position and will resume from there and slide the approach so I could pull up the approach here or Lancaster that approaches down here and we are out here so it's it's hard to show both at the same time but yeah it's going to show us the airplane once we are repositioned okay so we are where we left off when we took that zero three zero heading away from the original course we are being vectored for the final approach into Lancaster vor alpha approach we are here and here's the final approach course so let's go ahead and load in the approach using the techniques that we just discussed select approach it's got ports med still so we have to go back and dial in our vectors and let's do activate as well and there this is taking us to Jeffy and if we Paige you'll see here is the vectors to final leg that's being activated we are here waiting to be vectored to intercept that course this is a vor approach this is also a GPS approach but we're going to fly it off at the vor so we need to be on the vor station not GPS so right now this is giving driving the cd-i based on GPS we have to switch it to the vor and that could be done by switching into V lock and this will then turn green indicating that it's getting the signals from the VHF vor radio also if you didn't notice when we activated the approach it put in the vor frequency into the standby slot of the GPS so the frequency of this vor is 116 seven and that's in the standby and we could go ahead and activate it and now it's giving us some guidance and in order to be correct guidance we need to put in the final approach course which is 194 this right now it's a real number okay so we are set on that there's V log and we got receiving signal here and another thing that I'm not sure whether you noticed when we activated the flight plan activated the approach this GPS went into suspend mode that was the reason was we were on the wrong side of the final appropriate or somewhere here south of the final approach course so it didn't want to automatically activate this leg which would have taken us to the missed approach point so it went into suspend so we need to wait till we are on the correct side to unsuspended in fact it'll automatically unsuspended once we intercept the final approach course so we got to keep an eye on that if it doesn't unsuspended manually do that okay so we are all set we are at 3,000 feet which is the intercept altitude at the final approach fix and then we're going to descend down to 1580 so we could put that in here and the altitude descent altitude let the autopilot fly it at 1600 it's not going to descend until we put in a vertical speed so we'll leave it at that wait for our vectors to turn us around so we're about nine miles out on a intercept for the final approach course we should pull the power back slow it down for the approach [Music] to the bottom of the green it's a carb heat and we should do a approach flight briefing so this is the vor alpha approach into the Fairfield County Airport it's a view our approach with the vor frequency is one 16.7 and that's being loaded in and act we are already on the V lock mode final approach course is 194 which is dialed in here we should check the weather if you go to the waypoint 3 page and scroll down to a sauce that will put it in the standby Fairfield CO whether wind come visibility three rain sky conditions 950 overcast temperature 1/3 2 point 1 1 altimeter 29.92 ok we can also put the seat a frequency on standby and we can switch it when it's ready one page continuing with the brief at the final approach fix we should be at 3,000 feet than we are currently at 3,000 feet the minimum descent altitude 1580 which we've already dialed in 1600 the missed approach point is Matco on the missed approach we Canada straight ahead climb 2,000 climbing left turn to 3,000 back to the vor so we are going to wait for the needle to come in and also our approach clearance seven three one one Sarah three miles from Dublin maintain 3000 and to establish cleared for the vor alpha approach into Fairfield okay so we got our approach clearance [Music] this unit is still unsuspended should sponsor spend as soon as you cross the final approach course but if if you don't if this the if you're dialed in view our course is slightly different from the GPS course it's not going to under suspend so it is safe to do that now and on suspend taking unit chubby the course three miles and the needle is starting to come in at this point we could switch to approach there is no glide slope on this but we could use nav as well but for this consistency we'll just use a brooch there is its towards the final approach course and when we crossed the final approach fix we're going to start the descent so we should have speed ready so right now it's on vertical speed with the zero vertical spawn rate and one mile out will put the gear down and some flaps years [Music] perhaps the autopilot will take care of the pitch changes that are required to adjust for the drag an extra lift okay now it has switched so we could descent rate put in 800 five point six miles to go and you can see that this course is slightly offset from the actual course due to the position of how we can set the radio on here okay that's a thousand feet minimum descent altitude once era changed to advisory okay so now we can switch to advisory frequency and we'll be making announcements on the CTF run away still on the flowers so on the missed approach they're going to be flying the same heading climbing to 2,000 feet so we'll be switching to heading mode in anticipation of that we can sync the heading here we are leveled off looking for the runway two point seven miles should add some power I still don't see the runway two miles point five miles and I think I see the runway that's right here starting from this end up to here so this would be suitable to circle a plan but we're gonna go and wait for the missed approach point and execute best approach okay you just cross the missed approach point this has gone into suspend mode the power in war that's that to and climbed into the and we could switch the GPS from v-loc and wait to get to 2,000 feet before we hand over the controls to the autopilot to do the turn right now he's still holding the heading okay there's 2,000 we can on suspend this and there's the turn indication it's backwards behind us so there it is beginning the left turn we can climb to 3,000 so on the missed approach is important to stay on the heading mode until you reach the safe altitude specified safe altitude which in this case is 2,000 feet before starting the turn so heading mode will make sure yours playing straight ahead and then you unsuspended the navigate so there we are coming up to 3000 feet heading straight to the vor and at this point we would request instructions for what to do next so in our case we want to resume our trip to Portsmouth that's what we would request from ATC November 7 3 1 1 0 5 to 5,000 directed Tartu Victor 4/9 Oscar so our clearance is to climb to 5,000 feet and then to tart or in a section which was an original flight plan and then a new intersection wrote in a section along Victor 493 and then to our destination at Portsmouth our and I have 1/8 approach so let's do the climb first put 5,000 there's a vertical speed and it's climbing and we have to change the GPS right now we're headed to the missed approach hold Appleton vor and while we are changing it we don't want the airplane to be chasing in different directions as we are changing it so we should sync the heading bug and put it on heading mode while we change anything here so let's get into the flight plan here so right now we're heading to Appleton let's switch the map here so we can see where we are so there's Lancaster Airport we're heading away from it and this is Tartu here and we are going to go to Road intersection and then to Portsmouth so here we have Tartu and then Portsmouth so we need to insert a new fix so highlight the field prior to which you want to insert the fix and turn the small knob and type in the fixed name paratis that's the fix and now it has inserted it between Tartu and Portsmouth and we could also change the approach while we are here so it menu/select approach now by default it's showing us lancaster because that's where we just work go back here this our nine one eight now we don't know which transition we're gonna fly originally we had selected yeah new transition we'll just leave it we can always change it later at the last minute we'll leave that in here now interestingly it only gives me an option to activate didn't say just load that's because the currently loaded approach which is to Lancaster it's acted we are flying the missed approach portion of that of that approach so it's only giving me a replacement and the same activation so if I hit that here it's going to activate it doesn't matter because I'm still flying the heading and that's why it was important to switch to the heading mode while we are doing all of this so it's now seeds pointing to - yah nuke if we were on now it would have started turning around so let's go here now now let's take a look here so we need to go to Tartu you there's another option here activate leg now this is not what you want to do but let's take a look at what happens if you do that if you activate that leg plonk to Tartu this is not what you want because look at the map on nav 2 here you can see we are up here flying away towards the vor and Tartu is here and it's activated this leg it's telling you to go intercept that leg and that's not what our instruction was we had to go flight directed Tartu so we can go back into the flight plan I liked our toe instead of saying activate the leg we say direct to that leg enter enter and now it's drawn a direct line from our current position to that intersection as meaning as a right turn 192 heading at this point we are at 5,000 so we could switch to nav mode it should turn us towards the Tartu intersection so there it is it's turning right back towards Tartu so if you go into the flight plan you'll see it's got a straight line here right arrow saying Tartu instead of that curly brace from plumb to Tartu basically this is created a Third Point a point from which you are entering the flight plan so the Third Point is here where we are now entering the original route so now we are about two miles from Tartu about to join that next leg it's giving us the next course 190 okay there this it's almost the same course as before and now it's going to take us to the road intersection from this point okay we're about nine miles from the road intersection 1 1 0 % to 3,000 receive director Yan ooh okay we got approach clearance descend to 3,000 proceed direct to Yahoo so let's put in put in 3000 vertical speed should pull the power back so I don't over speed and then we need to proceed direct to Yannick so in the flight plan the Annie was our industrial approach fix so we could simply do proc and activate the approach and that's going to take us directly to ya know and the airplane will start turning towards that let's pull up the approach art and there we are we're coming here towards Aeon oogh and then we're going to fly the rest of the approach we should do an approach briefing so we got the RNA 1/8 approach and we're flying director Yan oogh the final approach course is 183 final approach fix is not we should get the weather and we can go to waypoint page Waypoint three there's the eihwaz learn on standby Greater Portsmouth regal weather wind calm visibility to rain sky conditions 750 overcast temperature 1/3 dew point 1 1 altimeter 29.92 okay we could also load the CTF into the standby when we need to switch and right back here and continuing with the brief it's an LP V approach so we should get an LP V flag once we are on the on the approach it's aligned with the runway obviously and the fuel elevation is 663 we'll be approaching 1:8 like this and the minimum descent or lpv decision altitude is 1010 one and a quarter mile visibility okay we are level at 3000 the initial approach altitude after we turn from Meggy is going to be 2600 feet so we'll watch for that come back in a bit three and a half miles to go to Yannick and after we capture the initial approach to fix we can go to approach mode this is an LP V approach so we do have a glide path guidance we should be able to follow it down all the way to our decision height of 1010 two miles the ended and we should have also reviewed the missed approach instruction on this is straighter had climbed 3000 back to the EV ruse fix and they have ruse fix yes it's here it's a it's over here it's not back on the approach course straight ahead Deborah's it's somewhere down here all right we are almost at yawn dude there it is the airplanes turning on the on the first leg of the approach and we can go into approach mode here we can slow it down the slower you fly in the approach the more time advised and time is very useful when you're applying an approach unless ATC asks you to maintain a particular speed so yeah noob to Meggie is our current leg and we're going to turn Meggie and go to final approach fix which is not okay there's the left turn coming up 184 it's going to be the new course there's the turn [Music] okay this GPS has switched to the lpv mode so we can use the LP v minimum of 1010 that's the LTV minimum 1010 so now at this leg we can also descend to 2600 we can speed [Music] one one Sierra changed to advisory frequency of proof report cancellation one to make okay so now we can switch to see tab and we'll be making the announcement on the CTF we're on the heading towards not the final approach fix 2600 feet waiting for the glidepath to arrive and that's the red dot there we're still below the glide path as we should be two miles to go and the ball is just starting to move one mile and when we are one dot above the glide path we can put the gear and flaps and commence our descent towards the runway and the decision altitude is 1010 okay there this who's coming now those pitch oscillations are autopilot correcting for the flap in the gear 1010 so we could put this in here as a reminder but we're not really descending based on that okay and now we are just waiting for their own way to come in sight tickle that's the the next fix and then the mist approach point is after that from tickle its 2.8 nautical mile to runway 1:8 so we got 1 point 8 nautical mile to tickle [Music] that's the 1,000 foot alert based on the number we dialed in on the altitude but we're not really descending to that we're letting the LTV glide path take us down and we'll look up and see if we can identify their runway before we get to that altitude okay point six miles to tickle and then after that 2.8 nautical miles to the runway 1/8 okay we're about to switch ok so now the next leg is the last leg tickle - runway 18 which is the missed approach point which is identified here and I'm starting to see the ground 1300 feet and there's the runway appearing in the distance 1,200 feet love and honor to eat we're all configured for landing gears down flaps at this point we would be taking over disengage the autopilot and fly it manually below the decision altitude and proceed with the landing okay thank you for joining me on this flight I hope you learn something about the Garmin and the GFC and explain we'll see you next time you
