    KHEF ARSENAL FIVE question

    Yup, this is exactly how I fly this in real life. If the cross wind component is significant, I’ll adjust accordingly based on my ground track.

    Tailwheel Endorsement: J3 Cub or C-140?

    Some really great insight here, thank you all! I’m leaning toward the J-3 right now, if for the unique experience if nothing else. I’ll post a follow up after my first couple flights. Thanks,

    KHEF ARSENAL FIVE question

    Well there’s one thing I think we can all agree on here: the number of different interpretations (right or wrong or indifferent) definitely takes the “Standard” out of SID!

    KHEF ARSENAL FIVE question

    I have to agree with Russ on this one here. The cited AIM section states to climb “to 400 feet above the departure end of runway elevation before making the initial turn, meaning we’re talking about an altitude rather than a specific place on the airport. This guidance would be for an ODP that...

    Exactly, I turn left to a 270 heading when flying this procedure, even with my /G aircraft, and then adjust if need be for wind.

    Tailwheel Endorsement: J3 Cub or C-140?

    I’m considering getting my tailwheel endorsement for the fun of it/experience/improving my overall skill set. I have about 700 hours, the majority in a 182 and 206. One local school has a 1946 J3 Cub available for this, another has a 1949 Cessna 140. Cost being roughly equal, which would you...

    KHEF ARSENAL FIVE question

    I earned my instrument ticket in 2012 from HEF and asked this very question to my instructor at the time. The instructions say to turn left “on” the radial, not turn left direct SHRLI. This means in theory you should be flying a heading that allows you to intercept the radial as you would any...
