Summary
Episode 227 Show Notes
Topic of the show: AG and RH talk about life before GPS, stray visual approach paths, and forced IFR cancellation. We also hear from a couple pilots that overflew Bravo and didn’t realize they were in the worst spot possible. This episode is packed with aviation gold, you don’t want to miss it!
Timely Feedback:
- 1. SGAC Patron Sierra Bravo want to know if “cookies for cancellations” is a real thing or just a myth?
- 2. The Terps Elf heard our call for a change to “N/A at Night” RNAV approaches!
- 3. Mike Kilo has a message for all pilots in the interest of aviation safety!
- 4. Patron Golf Kilo heard a proposal while getting flight following.
Feedback
- Patron Juliet Mike sent an audio question about busy CTAF frequencies. See link below!
- Patron Golf Kilo sent a question about overflying a towered airport on a visual approach.
- Mike Kilo has a question about a local IFR cancellation policy.
