II: DME arcs
Today, I get to teach Linda how to fly DME arcs. I haven't flown one myself Arcs can be as close to the navaid as 7 DME or as far as 30 DME. That's really far! The closer you are to the navaid, the faster you'll fly around the arc.
Using an HSI
Admit it; there might still be a bit of mystery, even for experienced pilots, about DME arcs. Or maybe you just haven’t flown one in a long time. The HSI can be a pretty handy decoder ring for demystifying DME arcs.
The Spaniard, the engine failure and the Seminole
We soon moved on to holds and DME arcs and in a matter of days to approaches. Fourteen-hour days were the norm in those couple of weeks, as I tried to juggle my other students and The Spaniard. While I flew with others, he spent hours

If it's Baroque, Part II
So when Annonymous pointed me to the Martin State VOR/DME RWY 15 approach, I couldn't wait to find some spare time to fly it. This a fun approach to practice because you get two DME arcs (one on the intermediate/final approach course

It's a short arc, and after he turns inbound, I cover up the vacuum gyro instruments. The ride has gone well so far, but it's about to fall apart. I misread the DME as being from ANE instead of GEP, but I catch it in time to call tower
More Progress
We then proceeded directly to Paso Robles where we flew the DME arc to the VOR approach. There were some clouds at 3000 feet and the truth is that if I had wanted to get into Paso Robles that day I would have wanted to fly an instrument

DME Navigation
Last navigation lesson, this one dedicated to Distance Measuring Equipment (DME). The Cirrus SR20 that I am flying is not equipped with DME, so we are using an IFR-certified GPS in lieu of DME. We practiced DME arc tracking,

This is a precision ILS DME approach flown via a DME arc. To the non-initiated, flying DME arcs is in the same ballpark as practising alchemy.
