T-45C TS, ADV, & IUT RIFP-01
Introduction to Radio Instruments
MOTIVATION
To prepare you for the RI hands-on lessons and the
Airways Navigation block, this lesson will review several
TACAN/VOR procedures already presented in previous
BI and INav lessons. Your return to the ship at night will
be facilitated by a TACAN, ACLS, or ILS pickup. The
requirement to fly the approach with precision is
paramount to a safe recovery, and the first step in
achieving the needed precision is a thorough knowledge
of the procedures.
OVERVIEW
After this lesson, you will have reviewed the basic
enroute radio navigation procedures for SIDs, radial/
bearing intercepts, arcing, point-to-point navigation,
ground speed checks, time/distance checks, voice
procedures, and direct routing.
In this lesson we will be reviewing procedures for:
* Standard Instrument Departures (SIDs)
* Radial intercepts
* Indications of station passage on the VOR - TACAN/
VOR/VOR DME
* Flying a TACAN/VOR DME arc
* Voice procedures
* Computing ground speed using TACAN/VOR DME
* Correcting for wind drift using TACAN/VOR/VOR
DME
* Performing TACAN/VOR DME point-to-point
navigation
* Performing direct routing
* VOR - TAC/VOR DME holding
* Elements of ILS approach system
