1. Before commencing descent check ground speed, divide by 2 and add a zero to get your ROD.

2. If this is a Seneca or something similar its all about attitude So!

3. Bug runway QDM allowing for wind

4. Then Scan AI/HSI up and down like a ticking clock, constantly check your attitide is sensible, if you move off the localiser then turn just enough to stop further movement. Use of the rudder here is a great help, try and keep all heading changes within the heading bug.

5. Remember the wind direction will generally back as you get closer to the ground and the MAP will also increase with a corresponding increase in speed.

6. At 3D call it, and then PUFA check.

7. Generally 500ft before DA/DH call feet to go before go around.

8. Remember it aint easy unless youve got lots of hours on type and if it was everyone would be doing it.

9. Finally don't think your unique because you are having difficulty as I am sure everyone dispairs at some time on the IR.
