T-45C TS, ADV, & IUT RIFP-01
Introduction to Radio Instruments
5.
Select gear down, flaps to half, and speed
brakes retracted in transition to optimum
AOA
6.
Simulated GCA minimum fuel
a.
ATC will give vectors for a normal box
pattern with a glidepath intercept point
6 miles from touchdown
b.
Expect 200 KIAS in pattern to final
c.
ATC should provide 30-second gear
warning
NOTE: The "perform landing checks" call
from the controller is a required USN/USMC
advisory call on base leg in the GCA
pattern. It DOES NOT mean to dirty up or
reduce airspeed in a minimum fuel
situation.
7.
Simulated minimum fuel ILS
a.
Request vectors to ILS final
b.
Advise ATC that you will maintain 200
KIAS until ILS glidepath intercept
c.
Transition to landing configuration
when the GS pointer emerges from the
top of the HSI (30-second warning) to
glidepath
8.
Simulated emergency fuel GCA
NOTE: This GCA is designated to get an
aircraft from altitude to the deck without any
undue delay. It is a practice procedure for
dealing with emergency fuel situations.
a.
Expect vector direct to a short final,
approximately 4 miles to the runway
