Certainly one of the most critical items on takeoff and approach. It's indication is independent of density altitude, airspeed, loading, etc. Sounds a lot like AOA to me. Pure AOA, combined information, whatever... this is all just chat room semantics. It is an AOA indication direct or indirect and if it adds additional information, all the better. On takeoff and landing, I'll have my eyes in this more than the airspeed indicator. It is a lovely instrument, certainly worthy or consideration by anyone who is looking to move safety up to the next level. All of these indicators (Advanced AOA, Right Angle, Alpha Systems, InAir Instruments) add the same kind of extra, very valuable information which I have come to believe is the right information for these two important aspects of flight. However, to dismiss the LRI variation on this theme is disingenuous. Warren On Jul 26, 2012, at 8:55 PM, Brian Lloyd wrote: Many people like the the LRI. Unfortunately, the LRI does NOT display AoA, at least not directly. AoA is a factor but I was never able to discern what that instrument was telling me. From what I can tell, it displays AoA times airspeed which probably is just total lift. Regardless, it is DEFINITELY NOT pure AoA and cannot be treated as such. If you want AoA you need to get a different instrument. ================================== //www.matronics.com/Navigator?Yak-List ================================== cs.com <http://cs.com/> ================================== matronics.com/contribution ================================== ================================== //www.matronics.com/Navigator?Yak-List ================================== cs.com ================================== matronics.com/contribution ==================================

    Not much interest on the YAK List on THIS topic I am sure, but .... oh well. Some might get a smile from this .... In reply to Mark Davis: > If it was used on the ICAP with the analog Doppler nav computer, my normal response to a call of "Steering's good" from the ECMO in the right seat was "Is that steering to East or West Jesus?" : ) AOA was indeed used to correct Impact Air on the nav solution on that model. However, you're right ... the Doppler was not all that reliable, especially over water. Until we got our first INS on the Prowler, NAV was pretty darn primitive. > I developed an exceptionally good seat of the pants dead reckoning ability working blue water ops. Yes, TACAN and RADAR were also helpful, assuming you were not EMCOM and you had someone who could make that RADAR actually work. The one you flew had it's roots in the APQ-92 first flown on the A-6A. (APQ-129) > My ECMOs finally learned to see if the steering needle was reasonably close to the nose before they suggested I follow their nav solution. Smooth sea states and any altitude over 15,000' over land made the system pretty unreliable. Add that to a ship that never radiated any navaids or radars the ALQ-99 could sort out as part of the battle group, it made it interesting finding your way back to Mother at times! Sounds like the USS Midway in the Gulf to me! :-) Anyway...... I had an interesting experience at MCAS Yuma the other day, and the older military pilots that read this list might get a chuckle out of this. I build jammers as a hobby, that.... and because I am slightly evil. Anyone who enjoys jamming cell phones has to be slightly devious. In any case, I built a GPS jammer in order to test some things at work, etc. Some gents, including the C.O., mentioned that our particular GPS was "jam resistant". REALLY? Says I. Bar bets started being made. Next day, two Prowlers went down on launch for "NO GPS". The point of this? Well besides winning the bet, the point was here were two jets, with 6 aircrew with fully operational TACAN, fully operational VOR (yeah we have that now too ) fully operational RADAR, fully operational ALQ-218 system, and TWO fully operational Ring Laser Inertial Systems. Neither jet would launch without GPS. How things have changed. Mark p.s, I was in Iraq a few years back and we managed to uninterntionally jam our own GPS while flying a mission. The ECMO got back and complained that without the GPS working, the INS drifted. "Really?" I replied.

It is good to see the LORAN-C signals reappearing for testing and new modulation being tested on WWVB. It may mean that someone has gotten religion and we may have a good, multi-source, jam-resistant, area-navigation system on the horizon. The Europeans had the right idea when they proposed to use LORAN-C as the WAAS distribution and backup for Galileo, their version of GPS. Too bad it never materialized. About 10 years back I was at Tailhook and was able to actually hold a Soviet GPS jammer, one of the ones that were being sold on the black market for about $4000(us). It was about the size of a 3x5 card file box as I recall. I have this life-sized picture of some ass-hat taking one to the top of Mt. Wilson overlooking the LA basin on some dark and stormy night after the FAA shuts down all the VORTACs and taking out all the GPS nav. Won't everyone be surprised then! And speaking of GPS jamming, I have had GPS just go away while feet-wet over the Atlantic. Both my panel mount and my handheld GPS's were saying, "Satellites? What satellites!" I was left with two choices: DR and ADF. Fortunately there was a high-power NDB at my fuel stop (Great Inagua) that I was able to track outbound after my fuel stop. 45 minutes into my outbound leg both receivers miraculously came back on-line at the same time. Jamming? Selective availability? Dunno. But it was both annoying and sobering. People think my insistance on having a good ADF in the airplane is silly but I still find it quite useful once I leave the borders of the lower 48. And people are starting to throw away perfectly good KR-87s. I just picked up an extra for $100! -- Brian Lloyd, WB6RQN/J79BPL 3191 Western Dr. Cameron Park, CA 95682 brian@lloyd.com +1.767.617.1365 (Dominica) +1.916.877.5067 (USA)

    I have to say that I haven't had much of that. I've displayed at the MCAS Miramar air show, the Chino Planes of Fame Airshow and a number of others. Often sharing the ramp with far more interesting and exotic stuff. Chinese people are fascinated and ask all sorts of questions and I seem to spend a ton of time explaining the plane and particularly the gill shutters and its history to curious aircraft enthusiasts. I've heard a few off-putting comments but the vast majority of people seem interested and I even drew a crowd at Chino when I departed despite being surrounded by Mustangs, Spitfires and the like.

    Subject: GPS and AOA
    Still off topic, read no further if you don't want to read another sea story. I launched off of the Carl Vinson approximately 700 miles southeast of the Big Island with a TARPS Tomcat to look for an I Hawk site on Lanai as part of an exercise. Ship in EMCON as well as any Airwing aircraft within 50 miles. Got topped off with gas outbound, but wouldn't have enough gas to get back to Mother without hitting Texaco again. Got to Lanai, I Hawk site not radiating, headed home. Mission E-2 to help us get home went down, so they triple cycled the airborne Hummer. He got short on gas and had to recover, so no E-2 airborne, leaving me with no nav except the Tomcat's INS. We were high for best fuel burn. For some unexplainable reason the Tomcat decided to drop down to the lower altitude we were supposed to meet the A-6 tanker at. The ship wasn't radiating anything and wouldn't answer on any frequencies even though I told them in the blind that we were critical on fuel. I finally raised our sister A-6 squadron on their squadron tactical frequency, got the tanker crew talking and got them headed on a reciprocal steer toward me, then got an air to air ADF/TACAN cut to sweeten the steer. I got a tally first on him at my 11:00 and called his turn for a left 180 and told him to get his basket out. I plugged him with 800 pound remaining well over 150 miles from the Carl Vinson. (For those unfamiliar with a Prowler, cruise fuel burn is 100 lbs./min.) I'd had my crew clean up their junk, tighten harnesses and discussed over water ejection procedures and water survival. I was rather cranky in the mission debrief for the decision makers that made a peacetime Rule Of Engagement that nearly put an $80 million dollar jet and crew in the Pacific. As for the crews that wouldn't launch without GPS, I would rate their mission ready capability as unacceptable, as would a generation of Dauntless, Avenger, Hellcat, etc. pilots that had nothing but a wet compass, stop watch, a navigation board under the instrument and a pair of eyeballs to judge the winds from the sea state (when you could see it).

    After 1000 CJ-6 hrs and a couple thou ECMO hrs in EA-6B I'm an AOA believer...but like all good things there are limits. AoA utility best at the left side of the envelope ...dial good for high speed/high g regime, indexers best for approach. What you need to remember is that while the indexers respond quickly at approach speeds, you can still blow past the warning quicker than you can correct with ham fist inputs at approach speeds...at higher multiple g speeds the issue is less critical due to higher input forces. Lesson is, instruments are good, but also listen to the airframe thru stick...when it's light, treat it gently. No aoa system will save you if you honk a bunch of g rolling base to final. On a lighter note for other prowler bubbas...maybe we need a tailhook to get the hook transition gear speed indication (actually used that once w/pitot ice up) Cheers, Rich Romaine Connected by DROID on Verizon Wireless

    Is the horse dead yet? IAS = IAS regardless Of DA. TAS increases as DA increases. Learn the wa y the jet feels at certain IAS and hence Alpha. But do that learning curve a t altitude where you can save stupid. Never spent much time paying attentio n to AOA in a furball. Certainly knew that getting slow at high alpha with a little cross control would reward one with a sphincter tightened time rocki ng on the NPO over-ride switch. But, hey, a departed A/C was predictable and was meat on the hook. Base final turn getting slow grabbing a load of G with a little top or botto m rudder will certainly make for a bad day. Since the YAK /CJ does not have a n ejection seat it will probably be your last bad day. Know the numbers and f ly the numbers along with the way your bird talks to you on those numbers wi ll help save one in almost any CAV environment. An AOA indicator is gravey. C enter the ball and fly a coordinated approach on the numbers coming off the p erch will keep you from busting your Rosey pink. After all this hobby is a s elf cleaning oven without much forgiveness for being sloppy down in the weed s. Surprised no one has said anything about taping a Yaw string on the wind scr een.

No aoa system will save you if you honk a b unch of g rolling base to final. >>> >>> On a lighter note for other prowler bubbas...maybe we need a tailhook to get the hook transition gear speed indication (actually used that once w/pi tot ice up) >>> Cheers, Rich Romaine >>> >>> Connected by DROID on Verizon Wireless >>> =EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BD~=EF=BD=EF=BD,=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BD %=EF=BD=EF=BD4=EF=BDM4}=EF=BD=1Er=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF =BD=EF=BD{=07(=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BD8^a=EF=BD=0B=EF=BD =EF=BDD=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BD=16=EF=BD=EF=BDK=1E=EF=BD=17=EF =BDj=EF=BD=EF=BD',.+-=15=E6=AD=BA=EF=BD=EF=BD5=EF=BD=81 =ABh=EF=BD=EF=BD=1B=EF=BD=EF=BD,z=EF=BD^=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF =BD.+-=EF=BD=D8=A5=EF=BD=D8=9E=EF=BD=CB=9C=EF=BD=EF=BD=0B=EF =BD=EF=BDT=EF=BD=EF=BDn=EF=BD+=EF=BD=EF=BDb=EF=BDp+r =18=EF=BDy'=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BDC=EF=BD =E5=A1=A7{ =EF=BD =EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BD,x(Z=EF=BDP=10>=1A-=EF=BD=EF=BDZ=EF=BD =EF=BDvk=EF=BD=EF=BDk=EF=BD=EF=BDj+y=EF=BDky=EF=BDm=EF =BD=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BD=0C&j=EF=BD=EF=BD',r=EF=BD=EF=BD5=EF =BD=81=ABh=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BD.+-=EF=BD=EF=BDi=EF=BD=EF =BD0=EF=BDf=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BDr=EF=BD(=EF=BD=EF =BDZ=EF=BD(=1A=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BDjB=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BD 0=04=EF=BD8=EF=BD=02Ia=01=14=EF=BDT1$=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BD+y=EF =BD\=EF=BD{^=EF=BD=D6=A5=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BDj)ZnW=EF=BD=EF =BD=EF=BDayg=EF=BD=16=EF=BD=EF=BD=C6=A1=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF =BD=EF=BD=7F=EF=BD=EF=BD+=EF=BDk&j=EF=BD=EF=BD',r=EF=BD =EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BD=7F=EF=BD=EF=BD+=EF=BDk&j=EF=BD=EF =BD',r=EF=BD=EF=BDh=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BD*'=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF =BD=EF=BD=D8=A8=EF=BDg=EF=BDJ+^N=16=EF=BD=EF=BD*.~=EF=BD=EF =BD=EF=BD=EF=BDzw=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BD,=EF=BD=EF=BDh=EF =BD=EF=BD=1A=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BDjY^.+-=01=D9=A2=EF=BD=EF=BD ky=EF=BDm=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BD=0C&j=EF=BD=EF=BD',r=EF =BD=EF=BDr=EF=BD=EF=BD&=EF=BD*'=EF=BD=EF=BDi=EF=BD=EF =BD0=EF=BDf=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BDr=EF=BD(=EF=BD=EF =BD(=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BDn=EF=BDb=EF=BD=7F=EF=BD=EF=BD=DF =A2{=7F=EF=BD=EF=BD=EF=BDn=EF=BDr=EF=BD=1Bf >> >> >> ========================= ========= >> //www.matronics.com/Navigator?Yak-List >> ========================= ========= >> cs.com >> ========================= ========= >> matronics.com/contribution >> ========================= ========= >> > > ========================== ========= ========================== ========= ========================== ========= ========================== ========= >

    Hi Brian, Do you have more information about the future of Loran-C? I still have 2 Northstar M-1's that I just don't have the heart to put into trash.

I know that one of the transmitters is back on-the-air for testing. I am hoping that this pressages a new LORAN system.

Still, the new signal may not be compatible with old LORAN receivers. Also, in their infinite wisdom, they are continuing to tear down the old LORAN antennas even though it appears they are working on a new system. This means that the new transmitter locations will change the geometry and hence the programming of the old receivers. So, please don't hold your breath that LORAN will come back anytime soon or that existing receivers will work with the new system. But we can hope that the experiments are a demonstration that someone is actually thinking out there.

    Considering that cyberwar with the Chinese and Iranians has already started, I'd bet LORAN will be coming back. You can't jam it with a computer virus.
