I'll look into the PG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nealius Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 with a zero added, of course :) Not necessarily. Runway headings don't exactly match their markings to begin with, and then you have magnetic declination on top of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I was just making the distinction between runway 26 being 26 degrees and runway 26 being 260 (approx) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Does the F18C have a guidance system similar to an ILS' localizer? It is so difficult for me to find the runway or even the airport. I make the two 180 degree turns, coming out of the downwind 180 turn to final I seem to never come out to or near the target runway heading. Same result when I make the two180 degree turns at a 30 degree bank. I'm not sure if anyone addressed the 180 degree turns as this thread is specifically talking about the ILS system... It sounds like you're not watching your runway while you're flying and that is a pretty big mistake. You want to have an eye on the runway throughout the pattern and it sounds like you're either too close or too far away from the runway on your downwind leg of the pattern (where you fly against the direction you're going to land). When you go to make your base/final turn, you'll either overshoot the runway or undershoot it depending on where your downwind leg was in relation to the runway. Also, the point where you're making your base/final turn is probably off - try extending a little further to get the hang of your distance from runway on the downwind leg - if you notice your final approach is always to the right of the runway, move a little further from the runway on downwind. If it's to the left of the runway, get a little closer to the runway on downwind. Extending gives you time to both see where you are in relation to the runway and also some room to correct so you don't have to go missed every time. Cheers!

defeatist99 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Look the number of the runway, the number of the runway is your course. No. Look at the charts in your kneeboard. Kobuleti runway 07 for instance is a course of 064 degrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
