Landing options in Pirep screen
« on: October 26, 2016, 05:55:43 pm »
Hello All
When landing i always  use ether an ILS approach or visual approach.
When entering an option in the pirep report screen of the Flogger, i therefore either select option 3 (ILS) OR 5 (VISUAL) is this correct.
Not sure if i should be selecting option 1 .

cheers Andy

I've got the idea that Euroharmony's managment is gone in hibernation for the winter ;), so perhaps I might be of any assistance. You did make the right choices in your pirep reports, although I really have no clue why we do it. I've never noticed any consequences of these choices.

Been holding off on an answer until I could see what option 1 was, but I didn't get to the PIREP filing bit yet - despite trying twice.  ;)

The ILS and Visual answers seem the right ones, but -as said- don't know what the option 1 says, by heart.

Option 1 is any of the VOR-based non-ILS instrument approaches, I see now (after 5 attempts to finish 1 flight :o)

The information is only gathered to fill pilot statistics, a.t.m.. Just like fuel, cargo, and passengers.
So you cannot really do anything "wrong" there (except mess up your own stats ;))

Thanks Eric.
I will carry on as I always have then (option 3 or 5).

Thanks to all for your suggestions.

Cheers Andrew
