SUMMARY

Instrument departures and approaches are key elements of most flight in Naval aircraft. At a

minimum it takes precise course control, a solid instrument scan and good airwork to

successfully fly a SID or Approach. Often they require the combination of many instrument

techniques such as arcing, holding and the 6 T's. It is obvious that the departure and approach

phases are often the most challenging phases of a flight and must be mastered accordingly.
