Toughman Challenge # 18
By Ron Jorgensen
FS 9
This TMC
will have you going to fields both at dusk and daytime. All night flights will
have runways with some lighting. Most of
these fields are between or very close to other fields so vigilance guys
vigilance. I will give you the Azimuth,
Range, Time and Min Alt (dusk only) to each location. The time given will be based on a DHC-2
Beaver at cruise speed. (about 112 KIAS). ATC not required. APAPI, VASI , PPI,
etc will all be designated as VASI.
Please use R/W weather (its free). Your compass, altimeter and clock will be
your best friend. Tough
it out folks.
USE OF FS FLT PLANNER, FSNAV OR ANY OTHER NAV
AID IS NOT ALLOWED.
