Title:
Approach Plate Lunch
Topic:
Analysis of ILS and VOR approaches that require ADF.
Brief Description:
Instrument
approach plates pack an extraordinary amount of information into a very small
space. They contain all the information you need to approach an airport you
can’t see, and procedures to safely land there – all on a 6” by 9” sheet of
paper.
On Saturday, February 22nd, SCFC CFII
Brian Eliot will analyze three
separate approaches - SNS ILS 31, SNS VOR 13, LVK ILS 25R - and discuss what is
unique or challenging about each, along with potential gotchas. These approaches
are unique because they depend on NDB without being NDB approaches. They would
be "ADF REQUIRED" and demand GPS in the absence of ADF, and would be prohibited
as alternates for a GPS diversion from a destination airport.
Presenter Brian Eliot is San Carlos Flight Center’s resident expert for IFR
training and Garmin G1000 avionics. He has been flying since 1995 and received
all his training in the Bay Area. Brian previously worked as a broadcast
engineer, a software developer, and taught computer science at both the undergraduate
and graduate levels. He regularly presents at San Carlos Flight Center safety
seminars and has a reputation for making complex concepts easy to learn and
understand.

bag lunch, stop at In-N-Out, or just listen and enjoy the discussion. We hope
