Inverted ILS approach

[PURPLEHAZE21]

If I were to fly an ILS approach inverted...would I fly opposite the localizer/ GS indications or with them, or would one be different from the other ?

Soon-to-be FAR 91.199 Category 69 ILS approaches (Inverted)
Any aircraft attempting an inverted ILS shall have the controls reconfigured in a 'reverse' mode. Attempting an inverted ILS with conventionl control rigging has proved fatal for experienced pilots who are unable to react with reverse control input as would be required with conventional rigging.

Weirdest question I've seen asked here.

Answer: Your CDI would still show the same deflections regardless if you were inverted or not. It has no sense of attitude, heading, etc.

Try it on your flight simulator. Just because its whacked, and something you wouldn't do in real life, doesn't mean you can't challenge yourself on the sim.

Speaking about ms flight simulator, my nephew wants to be a pilot and he loves flying that thing. I watched him fly it for a while.
This game is very advanced as to what it was in the 90's when I last saw it. It's funny how when you pull up to the gate and park, the jetway moves up to you. Mostly in real life flying, they're not near that fast. LOL

I can't believe I'm posting on this thread...

But, you had me think for about 3 seconds... it would be flown as normal.

Draw an HSI with a 1 dot low, 1 dot left deflection on a pice of paper.

Turn it upside down.

Suddenly you're 1 dot high and 1 dot right.

Follow nosehairs's advice and you won't be killed...

The instruments don't know that you're inverted. It'll tell you if youre above or below GS, and right or left of course.

So.... if you're above GS, go down (pull back on the stick if you're inverted), vise versa if you're below. If you're right or left of course, obviously if you're inverted your right and left are switched, so you're backwards. But also remember that when flying inverted your lift is reversed and your horizontal component of lift works toward the bottom of the plane. That is, if you bank to your right, the plane will turn to your left.

That's pretty cool, but lets see it in IMC.

Are all of you sure your Localizer will track correctly (Inverted) ? How is a localizer signal sent out...why do older aircraft have actual colors on there CDI, Blue and Yellow, in the center of the instrument ? Good Luck !

The nest question is: do you call for gear "down", or gear "up"?

 

[Iceman07]

If a "monoplane" has one wing, then why is there a left wing and a right wing?

Just draw the 150 and 90 Lobes, that should answer your question!
