2. NHQ G1000 Training Structure
NHQ Training Philosophy
Minimize risks associated with over-dependency on automation
Emphasize “eyes outside the cockpit” and “hands-on” flying skills
G1000 VFR Pilot – same structure for ground and flying
Emphasis on cross-country navigation, diversions, system use
Module #1 – system (“knobology”) and “hands-on” flying
Module #2 – use of the autopilot
G1000 IFR Pilot – same structure for ground and flying
Emphasis on instrument techniques: enroute, holds, and approaches (VOR, ILS, GPS/RNAV)

7. Overview of G1000 VFR Ground Course
CAP G1000 Endorsements
Consider example of a Wing with Cessna 182T and Cessna U206H, both equipped with the Cessna Nav III G1000 System
This may seem hypothetical but it is the case in PAWG
Consider a pilot who was already “Form 5-ed” in the Cessna 182T and in a Cessna U206G (round dial, steam gauge, Six Pack)
Under the old rules the pilot would have had to take an additional CAPF-5 check ride in the Cessna U206H Nav III since it was different from the Cessna U206G.
Under the new rules the pilot’s CAPF-5 G1000 endorsement taken for the Cessna 182T and the pilot’s CAPF-5 in the Cessna U206G would cover the pilot to fly the Cessna U206H without having to take an additional CAPF-5 check ride.

15. Night VMC Takeoff Accident in T182T G1000 - CFIT
Controlled Flight into Terrain (CFIT) with two fatalities – N881CP
Events from night of 11/08/2007
Departed North Las Vegas Airport (VGT), Las Vegas, NV on a VFR flight plan about 19:05 Local PST bound for Rosamond Skypark Airport (L00), Rosamond, California
19:05:29 Local PST - checked in with ATC at 2,700 feet MSL
19:17:29 Local PST - radar contact lost, airplane impacted 1,000 feet below summit of Mt. Potosi (elevation = 8,514 feet MSL)
Fireball from impact witnessed by law enforcement helicopter
Interviews with the ATC Controller produced the following
Controller stated, "The aircraft looked fine - there was nothing unusual about it.”
When questioned about where he expected the aircraft to go the controller replied that “...the pilot was on his own navigation.”
Controller stated that other aircraft he has seen go where the accident aircraft was, and some go further south.
Asked when he is required to issue a safety alert, the controller stated, in his opinion, when an aircraft is close to terrain or other aircraft. Controller stated that he knew that the height of Mt. Potosi was 8,500 feet.

16. Night VMC Takeoff Accident in T182T G1000 - CFIT
Controlled Flight into Terrain (CFIT) with two fatalities – N881CP
Conditions of Flight
Accident occurred during dark night under visual meteorological conditions.
No lighted roads or round structures were present in the area to provide ground reference to terrain.
1% of the moon’s disk was illuminated.
Airplane climb performance over last six minutes of flight per recorded radar data
Average groundspeed was 100 knots
Average rate of climb was 406 fpm (feet per minute)
Note: an average rate of climb of 600 fpm was required to clear terrain along the flight path.

Lessons Learned
Know necessary climb out rate
Conversion formula for Feet Per NM to Feet Per Minute (FPM)
Feet Per NM / feet in NM * 100 * ground speed (per G1000)
VGT Northtown Three Departure from Runway 30L uses 415 feet per NM
415 / 6072 * 100 * 100 = 683 FPM
VGT Boulder City One Departure from Runway 30L uses 367 feet per NM
367 / 6072 * 100 * 100 = 604 FPM
Do not depend on ATC for terrain separation
File for an instrument departure
Know the airplane’s equipment

22. What Are the Risks in Flying a Technologically Advanced Aircraft (TAA)?
Try to get audience participation and interaction
Some pilots see it as an affront to suggest the dread “dual” word 22

23. What Are the Risks with Flying TAA?
Risk: Lack of Pilot Proficiency
Mitigation: study, study, study then practice, practice, practice
Get the simulator for whatever GPS you have
Garmin GNS 430, Garmin GNS 530, Garmin G1000 for Cessna NAV III, Apollo GX55
See reference section for links
Download training videos, manuals (PDF), flight planning lessons
Get some ground instruction and flight instruction from your CFI
Try to get audience participation and interaction
Some pilots see it as an affront to suggest the dread “dual” word
Emphasize the need for study and then training. These systems are complex. Pilots should not expect to just hop in the plane and then go do it

24. What Are the Risks with Flying TAA?
Risk: Head in the Cockpit Instead of Outside
Mitigation: Set up as much as possible on the ground
Do your flight planning at home before coming to the airport
File an FAA flight plan (consider filing IFR even if VMC)
Print a navigation log (consider AOPA Internet Flight Planner)
Set up flight plan in GPS after preflight and engine start but before taxi
Contact Clearance Delivery on radio or cell phone
Set up clearance route in your GPS
Try to get audience participation and interaction
Some pilots see it as an affront to suggest the dread “dual” word
Emphasize the need for study and then training. These systems are complex. Pilots should not expect to just hop in the plane and then go do it.
Pilots need to learn the airplane and its systems on the ground not in the air

25. What Are the Risks with Flying TAA?
Risk: Single Pilot IFR
Mitigation: Take an experienced pilot or CFI
Establish personal minimums, don’t deviate from them
Consider establishing a risk management matrix
Refer to next section on personal minimums
Build experience
When appropriate, revise your personal minimums
Refer to the Single Pilot Night IFR seminar

26. What Are the Risks with Flying TAA?
Risk: Thunderstorm Penetration
Mitigation: Avoid thunderstorms
Do not use NexRad or Strike Finder features to penetrate thunder Storms
Use NexRad or Strike Finder features to avoid thunder Storms
Preferably by putting the T-Storms at your six o’clock
Emphasize this, emphasize this and then emphasize it again
When you are done emphasizing it then stress it!

27. What Are the Risks with Flying TAA?
Risk: Thunderstorm Penetration
Emphasize this, emphasize this and then emphasize it again
When you are done emphasizing it then stress it!

28. What Are the Risks with Flying TAA?
Other Things You Should Consider
NexRad near real-time weather
NexRad near real-time TFR
Time lags can be >15 minutes
Keep your databases up to date
As part of pre-flight, check to make sure that the databases are current
Make sure all of your equipment is up to date, especially the GPS databases
Subscriptions are available for downloads from the Internet
Emphasize that pilots should not fly with expired databases

29. What Are the Risks with Flying TAA?
Foster/practice continuing pilot education and self-study

Cessna NavIII G1000 Pilot Guide Oct2011 Rev A
AOPA/ASF on Technologically Advanced Aircraft

FAA Risk Management Handbook - See Appendix A for Personal Minimums
Emphasize to the audience that no matter how good they are, they should periodically fly with a CFI so another pair of eyes can assess their skills
Emphasize self-study and the many free Internet resources available for self-study
Refer pilots to both the FAA and the AOPA websites for Internet resources
