Sight Picture and Stall Practice - Aviation Video #5

Sat, Mar 29, 2008
Over the years I have heard many debates about non precision approach descent rates. Should one fly a stabilized 500 foot per minute descent? Or should one descend rapidly to get down low and find the field. We recently flew the Napa 36 L Localizer approach and came up with some data that might suggest being fluid with both types and applying the most appropriate to the terrain hazards and conditions.
