An ILS

[Lead Sled]

In some perverse way, this all makes perfect sense. I have a headache, I'm going to bed. Mini, if you don't tell us the question we'll start making them up for you. Your choice.

eh...it had to do with required equipment for a certain ILS

it said

"RADAR and ADF or DME Required"

So I wondered...did it mean
RADAR and ADF or DME Required -or-
RADAR and ADF or DME Required

The conjunctions threw me for a loop for about 10 minutes...

Both ways you wrote it mean the same thing ya spaz...it was a dumb question, go sit in the corner!!

No they don't

RADAR and ADF or DME Required - means RADAR and ADF can be Replaced by DME
RADAR and ADF or DME Required - means RADAR is required, but it has to be accompanied by ADF OR DME...your choice

One requires RADAR, one doesn't necessarily.

Go ahead and admit it - you had a cerebrial flameout. Boy am I glad I've never asked a stupid question.

FWIW, I take it to mean that you need radar and either DME or an ADF.

Thats what I thought, but after looking at the approach. All of the fixes are either RADAR, DME, or NDB/VOR fixes

At first, I thought it was that way, but you can fly the approach without RADAR if you've got DME because you can still ID the fixes (including the holding fix off of the M.A.) So I took it to be:
RADAR and ADF or DME Required - means RADAR and ADF can be Replaced by DME

someone should really talk to the FAA about their grammar

I hate it when you're right.

it doesn't happen very often

Hey, if you asked the question on SP.com, they would have somehow determined that you were an unsafe pilot because you had a question about something.

sp.com?

...or AOPA...

You wanna take a written test and you're a "statistic in the making"

I kinda like that...I should get that on my CFI Business Cards

Relish it while you can. I've only made one other mistake - I once thought that I had made a mistake when I really hadn't.

[minitour]

I like it.

Hey, Part 61 Instrument XC...250 nautical miles ONE WAY, or total distance?

Thanks...now if I can just get done with those ratings I'd be set...

Is there a separate practical test for "statistic in the making - airplane"?

Total...I think its 100nm straight line one way...then the other 150 coming back...3 different approaches to landings...

I THINK...its been a while

 

[minitour]

don't buy one, just download it...id give you the link but my browser just crapped all over my computer and its got all the links on the toolbar erased POS Dysfunctional thing...

...must be an Airbus Browser....
*donning the flame-retardant suit*

 

[minitour]

I woulda interpretted it as the other way probably...tho I didn't get to see the approach.

That's the idea...it's so blatently obvious on the plate that I was embarassed that I asked...
