Thank you Denti, you just saved me launching into another rant! Whats so bloody difficult about flying headings and sink rate as instructed?Looking in my logbook I flew my first GCA in the early fifties, Moose Jaw went flat in ice fog so a bunch of us on our first night solo flights {about 100 hours or lesss total time} bogged of to Saskatoon, were picked of by GCA and all landed in about a three hundred foot ceiling, {Sorry about the hero story, but again I just cant belive how complex some posters want to make flying an aircraft }By the way, we were flying Harvards, one six freq VHF and if you ere lucky you might have an ADF/LF Range reciever.The corporate aircraft I now fly is in private catorgary one of the main reasons I keep it that way is to avoid those who feel that if they write enough regs they will keep things safe, it just doesnt work that way.
