    Wind Shear APR Memory Aid or Chart/Graph

    Actually, I would believe as a DPE, they wouldn't be snarky and unhelpful and pretentious to someone asking for help. That's just me.

    Wind Shear APR Memory Aid or Chart/Graph

    Yes, what I'm looking for in particular is to address the questions about, "you are flying an ILS with a tailwind, that shifts to a slight headwind, what will the performance of the airplane be?" Above the GS, Below, etc. etc. But thanks everyone for your help.

    Wind Shear APR Memory Aid or Chart/Graph

    On the Knowledge Test, there are a bunch of questions about change in wind direction on an ILS, or approach. I thought I saw a chart somewhere once that shows what will happen to, increased performance, etc, etc, When I was an instrument student I struggled with this. Was my thing during...

    Wind Shear APR Memory Aid or Chart/Graph

    Well good for you. I'm asking for help, obliviously you being Mr. Super CFI-I have all the knowledge and can teach any subject perfectly. Good on you mate. I would share a LMTYAAT and all that, but you know it all. So if any other CFI's CFI-I's have a good way to show it, explain it that...

    Wind Shear APR Memory Aid or Chart/Graph

    If you don't want to share any advice or be of help, keep to yourself. I'm asking for advice from other CFI-I's on if they use a memory aid, chart with their students, something to go over for ILS's on circle to land's and review for KT. Maybe after 8,293 posts you just have found being...

    Sure does, according to the FAA and and the knowledge test. They ask about it and want IFR candidates to understand it. The chart they show on written on wind shear down drafts is pretty easy, but I'm looking for an aide in the explanation of, a headwind shifts to tailwind or vice versa, on an...

    Experienced Pilots: Do you always calculate takeoff distance?

    Actually no, it requires a pilot to think about how far the airplane will be down ANY runway at a given airspeed. I hear them call out "airspeed" alive, but that's it. What's that mean? The instrument is working, great. Where are you when you call that out? The reason to think about how far...

    Experienced Pilots: Do you always calculate takeoff distance?

    I follow a recommendation I learned from a CFI a long time ago. Have 70% of your takeoff speed reached by at least 1/2 way down the runway. If not, abort. It's engrained in me and easily to calculate. Now, if I have a really short field, then I review take off charts, density altitude, etc...

    Spatial Disorientation Today

    Thanks for sharing, new here, but had the same thing, kind of, recently happen to me. I'm working on my CFI-I in south Florida, out of KOPF (Opa Locka), we're out doing our CFI-I "stuff" later in the day so I can shoot some night approaches, maintain night currency and do some from the right...
