P-56 Busted Airspace

[BigPappa]

Most of these busts seem to have happened while in the turn according to data. Watch the turn radius or stay slow until you're around the corner.

Pinnacle mandates a green needle takeoff with the DCA VOR Radial preset.

It has been a long time but I think Comair had that exact procedure.

Ask tower.

is this guy for real? I hope that is a joke.

this is turning into another thread like the "autopilot MEL" one. Just shows what happens when you hire the kiddies with 500 tt.

These two incidents had nothing to do with low time.

What are these "Green Needles" you speak of?

 

[Metro752]

they are the needles on the PFD that display radio navigation information vs fms "white needles" information in the CRJ

Yes. That's the official procedure... To ask the effing tower. You're not very bright are you, ya cheese-eating surrender monkey.

green needles just refers to traditional nav (vor based) while white needles is using the FMS data.. the rj's are not very green needle friendly, they overshoot joining up on loc's etc.. with a strong crosswind.

With the autopilot on, maybe. The green needles are accurate if you handfly, you can join up correctly.
