Cirrus SR22: LPV Approach to EDMS

Показать описание
First LPV approach in VMC after my SR22 got GNS430W navigators. The autopilot (not in the picture) is an Avidyne DFC90. Airport is Straubing (EDMS). The LPV Approach is really very simply to fly. In an older Gen. Cirrus like mine with the DFC90 autopilot you have to dial in the altitudes manually, in newer Perspective airplanes with "Vertical Navigation" (not to be confused with the VNAV calculator of the GNS430W) all altitude changes during the Approach happen automatically. 60 seconds before the FAF the navigator checks the precisison and if sufficient it will display LPV. If the precision criteria are not met the Approach will be downgroaded to LNAV/VNAV or even LNAV. You could still use the "LNAV+V Advisory Glidepath" and fly the Approach coupled, but only down to the LNAV minimal. All in all these approaches are the best and safest technology for private pilots, in my opinion.

Sorry to trouble. Same thing on my 22 but unfortunately when I load and activate the LPV app the HDI and VDI do not show up on PDF like yours, as a consequence autopilot doesn’t fly the approach. Any advice?
