Readback November 2017

I am pretty much all in with all the latest wizbangs-syn vis, AOA, MFD, ADS-B In etc. in my V-35B, plus of course the great PFD. All this works perfectly with my legacy autopilot and it will take me wherever I want.I too discovered that I was really getting sloppy with my hand flying in challenging conditions and resolved to make letting George fly the exception. Sometimes we split the route where I fly out George flies back. I like flying the airplane and becoming more aware of all that I have on display in front of me, but it does take more effort and concentration.

Key Takeaways:

• Modern aircraft automation (TAA) can degrade pilot hand-flying skills, necessitating deliberate practice or simulator use to maintain proficiency, particularly when moving between aircraft with varying levels of automation.
• The BasicMed process, while offering a "pass/no pass" system, can be more cumbersome and stressful for some pilots than traditional FAA medical exams due to increased administrative steps and doctor thoroughness.
• Approach plate turn indications typically apply only to missed approach procedures and do not restrict turns for landing into the appropriate traffic pattern, unless explicitly stated otherwise.
