Firstly sorry about the abstract title and the somewhat abstract question that may follow.
Probably a very simple question, but I wanted someone of more hours to confirm/clarify.
I have to admit to being a child of the G1000 in my flight training - a lovely bit of kit but when bits fail and start to look like analogue displays, to someone not used to them it takes a bit more thinking (another debate there I suppose).
In this case the Magnetometer has failed and so my HSI is no longer giving heading info and acting somewhat like a CDI whilst I am flying a DME arc.
No RMI in this case (my preference for following the arc)
I am assuming in this case I will be using a combination of the Standby Compass/CDI to fly my arc. The course line being straight up now and me turning the course knob to offset the CDI 10 degrees every time I turn in 10 degrees, then just following turn and twist as per normal and adjusting based on the DME indications.
My question is my assumption of how this will look correct? as it is a failure I have not had thrown at me in the FNPTII yet but one that is a favourite of my instructor tomorrow!
If that makes any sense at all..............
