A clearance for an instrument approach procedure includes a clearance to fly the published 1450 1265 missed approach procedure, unless otherwise in- 1581 structed by ATC. The published missed approach 090° 1180 1172 procedure provides obstacle clearance only when the missed approach is conducted on the missed 056° approach segment from or above the missed approach CHANUTE point, and assumes a climb rate of 200 feet/NM or 109.2 CNU R236 011° higher, as published.

The Difference Between Higher and Lower Flap Setting Configurations May Seem Small, but at Today's Fuel Prices the Savings Can Be Substantial
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HIGHER AND LOWER FLAP SETTING CONFIGURATIONS MAY SEEM SMALL, BUT AT TODAY'S FUEL PRICES THE SAVINGS CAN BE SUBSTANTIAL. 24 AERO QUARTERLY QTR_04 | 08 Fuel Conservation Strategies: Takeoff and Climb By William Roberson, Senior Safety Pilot, Flight Operations; and James A. Johns, Flight Operations Engineer, Flight Operations Engineering This article is the third in a series exploring fuel conservation strategies. Every takeoff is an opportunity to save fuel. If each takeoff and climb is performed efficiently, an airline can realize significant savings over time. But what constitutes an efficient takeoff? How should a climb be executed for maximum fuel savings? The most efficient flights actually begin long before the airplane is cleared for takeoff. This article discusses strategies for fuel savings But times have clearly changed.

Chapter: 4. Approaches
Chapter 4 Approaches Introduction This chapter discusses general planning and conduct of instrument approaches by pilots operating under Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Parts 91,121, 125, and 135. The operations specifications (OpSpecs), standard operating procedures (SOPs), and any other FAA- approved documents for each commercial operator are the final authorities for individual authorizations and limitations as they relate to instrument approaches. While coverage of the various authorizations and approach limitations for all operators is beyond the scope of this chapter, an attempt is made to give examples from generic manuals where it is appropriate. 4-1 Approach Planning within the framework of each specific air carrier’s OpSpecs, or Part 91. Depending on speed of the aircraft, availability of weather information, and the complexity of the approach procedure Weather Considerations or special terrain avoidance procedures for the airport of intended landing, the in-flight planning phase of an Weather conditions at the field of intended landing dictate instrument approach can begin as far as 100-200 NM from whether flight crews need to plan for an instrument the destination. Some of the approach planning should approach and, in many cases, determine which approaches be accomplished during preflight. In general, there are can be used, or if an approach can even be attempted. The five steps that most operators incorporate into their flight gathering of weather information should be one of the first standards manuals for the in-flight planning phase of an steps taken during the approach-planning phase. Although instrument approach: there are many possible types of weather information, the primary concerns for approach decision-making are • Gathering weather information, field conditions, windspeed, wind direction, ceiling, visibility, altimeter and Notices to Airmen (NOTAMs) for the airport of setting, temperature, and field conditions.

Practical Application of Pressurization Systems
Practical Application of Pressurization Systems Pressurization Instruments A B 1 2 A. Cabin Rate of Climb Indicator – Similar to VSI, shows rate at which cabin altitude is climbing or descending (in this example the cabin is descending at 700 feet per minute). B. Cabin Altitude and Pressure Differential Indicator 1. Outside ring (long needle) shows cabin altitude in thousands of feet (in this example cabin altitude is a little over 3,000 feet. 2. Inside ring (short needle) shows the pressure differential in inches of mercury between the air in the cabin and the outside atmosphere (in this example, pressure differential is 4.8 inches) Pressurization Controller Setting Prior To Takeoff C A B A. Cabin Altitude Control – Prior to takeoff, set to 1,000 feet above cruise altitude on the inner ring.* The outer ring indicates what the cabin altitude will be when reaching cruise altitude. In this example the aircraft is climbing to 16,000 feet, so the altitude is set at 17,000 feet. The cabin altitude at cruise will be 4,100 feet. B. Cabin Rate of Climb/Descent Control: Usually set in the “12 O’clock” position which causes the cabin to climb at about ½ the rate at which the aircraft climbs. C. Cabin Pressure Dump Valve – Dumps cabin pressure * Setting altitude 1,000 feet above cruise altitude will prevent the cabin from climbing or descending if the aircraft climbs or descends a few hundred feet when at max pressure differential. This prevents cabin pressure changes and discomfort the crew and passengers. Pressurization Controller Setting Prior to Descent C B A A.
