For one, after the second go around, I'd make a parachute out of my blanket and open the emrgency exit :)
Joke, by the way.

Very dangerous all that going around at low alt at Innsbruck. But finally you got it. in the turn desc 1000 ft/min from 4000 ft.

Kind regards, Vincent


Yeah! I know!

The difficult part for me was determining the good turning point. I tried the OEJ Rad 66 mark without much success. So I lost a bit the track of that navigation there. The 2nd and 3rd turn where a learning curve, more Visually than instruments guided.

I may feel like testing it again, trying to get the instrument navigation sharper in that last turn.

Is 66 euros costly for it?

Try doing the river visual in a single engine flying boat that if not happy, would catch fire. (Republic Sea-Bee)

I got it :D
I saw many good reviews, so decided to spend a little extra for quality stuff.

Most of the stuff will be priced higher here. But amazon usa sells it for the same price.
Even if I bought it from Europe, the Customs would probably stamp some import duty fees. :P

I did this approach twice in an MD-11 yesterday. It's a lot of fun.
