Transition to BAC

T-6A INSTRUMENT NAVIGATION

CHAPTER FIVE

NOTES

1. The LOC is considered reliable within 18 miles of the

transmitter within 10 or 10 miles within 35 of the course

centerline unless the published approach depicts a transition point

at a farther distance. The glideslope is considered reliable within

10 miles of the transmitter provided the aircraft is on the LOC

course.

2. If the LOC fails, an ILS approach is not authorized. If the

glideslope fails, the ILS reverts to a non-precision LOC approach.

TRANSITION TO BAC

Transition once within 4 NM of the FAF and aircraft heading within 90 of the FAC. Distance

can be determined:

by voice report from ATC.

use of the GPS needle pointing to the OM/FAF.

DME.

LOC INTERCEPT

At LOC intercept, provide heading inputs directing the IP to maintain course. Heading

increments of 10 or less are normally sufficient to maintain course.

GLIDESLOPE INTERCEPT

At glidepath intercept, direct the IP to descend to the DH. When the student observes a

deviation from the glideslope, he shall direct the IP to correct by using the verbiage

"Increase rate of descent" if above the glidepath or "Decrease rate of descent" if below

the glidepath.

MISSED APPROACH REVIEW

Ask the IP if a review of the missed approach procedure/climb out instructions is required. This

review shall occur after the Before Landing Checklist but prior to the MAP. The review consists

of:

Point:

Point at which to execute the missed approach.

Heading:

First heading to turn.

Altitude:

First climb altitude.
