3 ILS approaches into KJAN with ATC COMS - Video

3 ILS approaches into KJAN with ATC COMS - Video



Ceilings were perfect for more IMC time.  FAF of ALLEN is 2200 and ceilings were averaging 1800 give or take so I knew I would be in the middle of the action

All en-route portions were timelapsed therefore ATC instructions are out of sync with the video to some degree.

Took me the three approaches into KJAN to realize that in high wind situations 500 fpm descent just won't work.  I had to use a 300 fpm descent rate to maintain glide slope

Still always amazes me how ATC "works me in" as my first approach I was doing 50 knots ground speed.  Needless to say, to be a good neighbor, 2nd and 3rd approaches, I did at 110 knots down to the middle marker :-)

First approach en-route was IMC as I was in the middle of the cloud deck, second, VMC on top and third was in and out of IMC at the bases of the cloud deck.
