Night Watchman,
I posted the following a few days ago:
'Back to the original question.
Can someone who has done an IMC letdown in strong on-shore wind conditions (ie where the wind speed precludes hovering downwind) using a 120-degree radar describe how they got on?
We will then be able to compare procedures (Crab has provided a detailed description of how he and his milSAR mates conduct it) and decide which is best for ourselves. Radical, I know, and not in the finest traditions of PPRuNe name calling.'
From your comments, you seem to have the experience required to answer my question. Although not stated explicitly, I did mean a 120 degree forward looking radar.
Many thanks in anticipation of a response.
