Ive take to flying slight off track near beacons when hand flying or occasionally going into heading mode when using the AP. Using the keep it to your left idea (when airspace permits).
Good point about the landing lights - BUT has anyone seen someone because of it?
I used this on Friday when flying across the Benson Zone - had been told someone was on a reciprical course at same height so I switched the landing light on and looked very hard - couldnt see a thing
I just hope they saw my light. I also tend to turn it off and then on again every so often since I (perhaps wrongly) think that the brain is better at picking up the "change" more than just the intensity.
PS. I also agree about the FIS - although lately getting a word in edge ways can be difficult around here.
