from the en-route phase of flight to a landing or a missed approach when one or more of the
instruments are not working.
2. WHY THIS LESSON IS BEING TAUGHT
This lesson is taught so that the student will be able to control the aircraft and carry out an approach
safely with one or more instruments unserviceable.

INTERCEPTING RADIALS
+
i. The instructor should give the student time to
practice intercepting radials while flying on
limited panel.
THE VOR APPROACH i. The instructor must ensure that the student is
far enough from the beacon and that there is
sufficient time for orientation and planning.
ii. The instructor could possibly allow the
student to fly different entries to the holding
pattern before commencing the approach.
iii. The instructor can consider teaching the
student to go-around and carry out the
missed approach but it must be emphasized
that this sort of flying involves an emergency
and the student should not be flying an
approach where the weather is on minimum.
THE CIRCLE TO LAND MISSED
APPROACH PROCEDURE
