- Mooney M20M "Bravo"

Objectives:
- Handling IFR Partial-Panel Emergency

 

These Chapter 20 missions address three general types of IFR emergencies: those that happen when one or more of your primary control instruments fail, other emergencies in the clouds, and what to do if you lose radio contact with ATC. One tip is worth mentioning right up front: for nearly all the emergencies in this chapter, you want to tell ATC about it right away.

You're flying near Seattle, about to get vectors to the Boeing Field ILS Runway 13R. When you unpause the flight, use the ATC menu to ask ATC for your IFR clearance to Boeing Field.

The flight start in the clouds with a full panel.but not for long. ATC will give you your clearance and will soon start vectoring you for the ILS Runway 13R at Boeing Field. Set up all the radios, and so on, that you can, and take a look at the chart for the approach under the REFERENCES Tab of the Chap_01_Read_Me mission.
