GNS 430 & 530 Part IV - Holding Patterns

Описание: Continuing our series on features of the dated, but very popular Garmin GNS 430/530 GPS navigators, this program will do a deep dive on one of the most often asked questions from the previous programs: How can I use this box to do a holding pattern?

We're now well into the "300-level" functionality of these units, and some of these techniques are nearing graduate-level work. But, exploring different ways to make them work for you will help you get the most out of them. We'll discuss the "normal" holding patterns that you'll find as a part of most Instrument Approach Procedures, as well as techniques that can be used to fly an "arbitrary" holding pattern at a point that's not part of a published procedure, and finish up with a trick for "cheating" on certain holding patterns.

Captain Mike Jesch flies a Boeing 787 on long-haul routes at work - with perhaps the most modern aviation navigation system available today. With deep roots in the GA world, he is a two-time Master CFI and has been flying for over 40 years. He earned his instrument rating in a Cessna 150 with vacuum tube radios, but he's flown behind a GNS530W in his personal Cessna 182 for a decade now and will bring his engaging and relaxed presentation style home to you.

Join host Captain Brian Schiff and presenter Captain Mike Jesch for this re-introduction to the wonders of modern GPS navigators. Using the Garmin simulator as well as photos and videos from his own airplane, we will illustrate, demonstrate, and educate on the basics.
