Procedures for Instrument Training at the Stanfield VOR

Newly revised Arizona Flight Training Workgroup (AFTW) procedures for the Stanfield VOR, as presented by Seppe Ramaekers.

Date and Time: Saturday, July 16, 2016, starting at 09:00 Arizona

Speaker(s): Seppe Ramaekers

Brief Description:
Presentation on newly released Arizona Flight Training Workgroup (AFTW) Stanfield VOR PowerPoint. An opportunity for Flight Students, Flight Instructors, Ground Instructors, Designated Pilot Examiners, and the FAA Safety Team (FAASTeam) to meet and discuss the revised Stanfield VOR procedures.

Multiple instrument approaches use the Stanfield VOR as their Initial Approach Fix (IAF), making the area around the VOR more complex and challenging for Intrument Approach Procedure users and pilots transitioning the area. With the increasing number of General Aviation pilots pursuing an Instrument Rating and the increasing number of training flights by flight schools, there is a need for enhanced general awareness of the Stanfield VOR area (called "the Stack") and standardization amongst users.
