Manual IMC approaches: YIKES
« on: February 05, 2023, 11:30:51 PM »
Well, that approach sucked donkeys. DC-3 into PAKT with current weather, meaning overcast and raining, gusty 25 knot headwind 5° off the runway heading, ILS 11 approach just using the needles.

I was all over the damned place. At least I had 1/2 mile vis so I could get on the runway.

Think it's time to shoot some low-vis approaches afore Misty ops fires me for bending an airplane.
