Final Approach
I'm reading the Instrument Flying Handbook and an area that I do not have comprehension about involve the 2 methods of Basic Instrument Flying, Control/Performance and Primary/Supporting.
How would you explain what the difference is between the two? I got from the IFH that the difference is in the importance placed on the Attitude Indicator, but that is all I get.
Is it appropriate to favor one over the other or are there times when you will switch, depending upon the maneuver or phase of flight? Or is it strictly pilot preference?
I am honestly looking for an answer that is useful to me. I asked the question of 2 CFII's and neither even knew what I was talking about when I used the terminology. Should I make any judgements about the CFII's or is it simply one of the topics that only matters in groundschool?
