Preparing for Your Arrival: Never let the plane beat you to the destination....
Preparing for your arrival at a destination airport is particularly important because it helps manage high workloads and makes sure you are ready to land.
Come along as I take off from KREG - Louisiana Regional Airport in Gonzales, LA on a cloudy morning on an IFR flight plan. I also discuss the N.A.R.T. Pre-Arrival Briefing Technique I use on most flights.
N - NOTAMS - Notice to Air Missions for an Airport
A - Arrival - Approach and Airport Information
R - Runway Environment Information - Know where you are landing and what to expect.
T - Taxi Briefing - Don't blow a perfect approach and landing by getting lost on the ground.
We end the video with a landing at KTYR - Tyler Pounds Regional Airport in Tyler, TX.
