Teardrop Approach -Cont.

CHAPTER SIX

T-34C INSTRUMENTS

Level off at Procedure Turn altitude (2000 feet).

One hundred feet prior to Procedure Turn altitude, add power smoothly

towards 450500 ftlbs as you raise the nose to level flight and retrim.

ii.

Maintain Procedure Turn altitude until you are established on the inbound

course.

After 2 minutes of outbound timing, twist the inbound course into the IND350

(134).

NOTE

For a non-depicted Teardrop approach, twist an outbound course

20 offset from the published outbound course on the Procedure

Turn or "barbed" side.

At three minutes of outbound timing, execute a turn in the direction depicted

(right). During the last half of the turn, note the position of the head of the needle.

If the head of the needle is not within 5 of the inbound course, stop the turn with a

45 intercept. Do this by placing the inbound course (134) under the first 45

benchmark in the upper half of the RMI.

If the head of the needle is within 5 of the inbound course, you should roll out

with a doubletheangle intercept. If you overshoot the inbound course, continue

the turn and establish an intercept.

Once established on course or with a shallow intercept, transition to BAC (a shallow

intercept is defined as aircraft heading within 30 of the final approach course).

As you intercept the inbound course, turn and track inbound.

Once established inbound, comply with the remainder of the Low Altitude Instrument

Approach Procedures (paragraph 623.)
