Hi Dorosenco,

- More accurate than FAA. 1/2 scale deflections instead of 3/4 for FAA. 5 deg on NDBs. FAA doesn't do NDBs anymore, it does GPS instead that JAA doesn't do yet.
Are you sure?

The Full Procedure NDB approach with a circle to land was the last of the three approaches on my FAA IR checkride this summer.

You say JAA is more accurate than FAA... well that is true until the FAA candidate attempts their FAA ATP checkride. Now if I remember correctly the FAA ATP checkride is even more stringent on ILS deflections etc. The JAA candidate only has the CPL and IR checkrides, no seperate ATPL checkride.

Best wishes,

Charlie Zulu.
