We continue to turn in circles but this time, we look at some useful tips to help keep you in the holding pattern and understand why new IFR pilots hate them so much.
Back to Basics – Series 4, Lesson 8
In this lesson, we wrap up exploring the various uses of the VOR radio navigation aid by learning to fly in circles or follow the DME arc.
Back to Basics – Series 4, Lesson 7
Having successfully completed a simple VOR approach, in this lesson, we take it a level higher while introducing a nifty invention from Australia – the DME.
Back to Basics – Series 4, Lesson 6
In our previous lesson, we left off overhead Mangalore VOR station. We now continue on our planned route to Albury when some unexpected ATC requirements test our understanding of VOR intercepts before we put it all together to make a simple VOR approach.

Having got to grips with the NDB and how pilots use it to navigate and approach airfields, our instrument flying series now turns its attention to a more common and accurate radio navigation aid - the VOR.
Back to Basics - Series 4, Lesson 4
In our previous issue, we left you with some airborne homework, so you will be ready to fly one of the oldest types of radio navigation procedures, an NDB approach.

Having learnt some tips about finding a suitable IFR trainer, in this issue, we now kick off some real IFR flying by taking a look at one of the oldest radio navigation aids used in aviation, the Non-Directional Beacon.
Back to Basics - Series 4, Lesson 1
Welcome to the next stage of our Back to Basics series in which we explore basic and intermediate instrument flying and radio navigational techniques.
