My first video on how to fly a simple VOR approach! If you have suggestions on how to improve and what you want to see next, leave a comment down below!
well done. (make sure the audio is uploaded with adequate volume - your channel, for me at least, does not "turn up" audio volume-wise and is a little soft to follow, even at max volume setting. and I don't have this problem with other channels. c'est la vie!) very good work. informative. well organized. well illustrated.
So what would be the procedure if you were approaching the VOR from the northwest? Do you turn to a 243 heading as soon as you are on top of the VOR? Or do you need to fly the hold and then fly outbound on on the 243 radial? Thanks!
It mostly depends on the arrival procedure that comes before the approach. Some of them will route you in such a way that you will always approach the VOR from the east. If you were to fly directly to the VOR from the Northwest, you would do a holding entry so that you approach the VOR on the 238-degree inbound course. If you're cleared for the approach by ATC, and you are ready yourself, you can continue on the 243-degree radial. Otherwise you would stay in the published hold until you are ready or get the clearance for the approach. I hope this helps!
