    Help with KOAK ILS 28R missed approach instructions

    Hey! Mt Diablo comes up fast if you delay the turn to the right. Here is a photo that sort of illustrates it. This was me on ILS25R about 15 miles out. localizer centered, waiting on FAF for glideslope

    Heading or Radial after VOR?

    looks clear to me. fly to the vor and AFTER the vor turn 270. I interpret that as a heading, not radial.

    ran in to the same problem. saw the the "T" on chart and the NA for the RWY30. after being vectored over the pacific for the approach at night, did not want to take off and head back out to sea, so did low approach and asked for vectors for the KOAK ILS28R then got vectored under the bravo...

    IFR Approach Debate

    I think ATC has to vector you in 3 miles before the FAF. Also, we can't know if they are vectoring us for traffic. I think your copilot was right

    Could someone explain the typical procedure for the XC portion of the PPL Checkride?

    They told me, Buds doing your checkride. I thought oh this gonna be fun. I said who? I was at McClellan AFB at the time. Yep, Col Bud Anderson, P51 Ace and DPE. Bud was a pilot's pilot. I took off headed for Lake Tahoe on my cross country and before I knew it (<10mins) he threw a alum sun...

    Diverse Departure Question/concern

    guessing you have to know your planes takeoff distance to clear that obstacle. thats the procedure. also, you can have an IAP w/ODP. Note, "T" on approach plate. though in this case, it does seem odd a tree right at the DER. Thinking at a standard rate of 152ft/nm, that would only get you...

    ILS question

    VGSI and Descent angles may not be the same. Fly the ILS to DA, the follow the VGSI. The VGSI may take in to account obstacles. If both are 3 degrees, then you could use both. The other day, I flew the ILS 25R in to Livermore, CA and flew the GS all the way down. Both were 3 degrees...

    Foggles for use w/those who wear glasses.

    I haven't seen anything north of a cessna dash for quite some time and am enjoying every minute, except the part when I put on the foggles. Are there any foggles you guys know of that are good for those wearing glasses? My problem is close up vision, not distant. FAA says I only need them...

    pilots vs maintenance guys. Round 1 goes to maint.

    Is there some sort of rift between pilots and maintenance guys? Today, I found out the hard way maint guys apparently don't get along w/pilots at my facility. I had a plane booked, but found it near the maint hangar. usually planes that are on flight line that are ready for use ARE NOT...
