EP190 - Nothing Like the Real Thing

This week Ben, Brian, and Ted get into IFR currency: what it actually takes to stay instrument current and ready. Six approaches, holds, tracking and intercepting nav aids, and the clock that never stops running. Foggles versus a safety pilot versus the real thing, why the foggles are "the worst approximation of the instrument experience," and whether an IPC is the smarter move than chasing six approaches every six months. Plus a full tape machine of your voice memos and a whole lot of Oshkosh anticipation.From the tape machine: Ash (flying_wheelies) on flying as a wheelchair pilot and sport pilot in his Paradise P1, and more of your feedback.Mentioned on the show:Brian's THE LONG WAY: https://www.makesmallcorrections.com/Frequency Change Aviation, Nashville: https://frequencychangeaviation.com/EP36 with CFI & flight school owner Jeff Ramsey: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ep36-cfi-flight-school-owner-jeff-ramsey-on-how-to/id1591463789?i=1000615289723Ash's Flying Wheelies: https://www.instagram.com/flying_wheeliesParadise P1: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradise_P1_LSAICP Savannah: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICP_SavannahWhen Do You Need An IPC (Boldmethod): https://www.boldmethod.com/learn-to-fly/regulations/when-do-you-need-an-ipc-instrument-proficiency-check/1DullGeek's "I Can't See the Runway!!": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZoIQv7IsfCw
