GNS430 RNAV SID and Approach

In this video I demonstrate the use of a Garmin GNS 430 to fly and RNAV SID, the enroute portion of an IFR flight and then an RNAV approach. The video is aimed at students in the Selkirk College Professional Pilot program who will be flying this profile in a King Air simulator but may be of interest to anyone learning to fly IFR, especially using a Garmin GNS 430 navigator.

*thank you! I fly my first RNAV tomorrow, and this was exactly what I need: a guide on all the specific little buttons to push. Very helpful.*

This is great. Returning to flying after 9 years and was looking for something more related to Canadian IFR.

Thank you for this GREAT video!! EXTREMELY well explained!! I'm an *FAA* Instrument rated commercial pilot. Having recently moved to Canada, and now in the process of converting my US licenses to their Canadian counterparts, this video was doubly helpful!!! I was just looking for a thorough refresher on IFR procedures on the 430W (I had become a bit rusty), and while this video did an AWESOME job on that, it was also incredibly helpful in subtly answering a lot of my questions on _CANADIAN SPECIFIC_ content (differences in rules, charts, procedures etc. between FAA and Nav Canada)!! Essentially killed two birds with one shot! 😀

I appreciate the clarity with which you present the subject. Your calm voice also builds the students confidence. Thanks again.

I have to say this is one of the best video I have seen by far....Please keep making more of them....Outstanding and very informative.

very thorough, thank you, my friend recently bought an Alarus and this will help us practice with his Garmin 430

This really is a great tutorial. You're a good instructor....

Loved this video!!  Great detail and Highlighting!!

[skyking]

excellent tutorial, learn a lot, better than most.

Fantastic. Very clear. My computer is a Mac so won't load on Macs. Why did it cross EPTEG at 3700 and not 3200? Also if you see a GPS waypoint abbreviation marked as D258G what could that mean? Is it a DME arc or a track between D and G? Thanks.

One question. You say that you can descend when within 25 miles of LODLO since that is what the MSA shows. I'm pretty sure that is just for Situational Awareness. You can't leave an IFR altitude based on what the MSA shows in the U.S. Is it different in Canada?

This video was very useful and demonstrated that I still have a way to go before I will be good enough to carry out these procedures in real time. I learned a great deal from this, but will have to look at it several times to get up to speed. Anyway I am very grateful for your wonderful demonstration. I have X-plane-11 and am currently flying a Beechcraft Baron, do I need to get a King Air for the Garmin 430, or can I put it into my beechcraft from somewhere? Thanks for your help.

Very good video, thank you for a comprehensive explanation.

[GreenGuyDIY]

departure freq is also in page 4 of nav.

[GreenGuyDIY]

to pull in calgary VOR why not go to page 4 of nav scroll down to the vor of choice and enter into the stdby freq?

My trainer Version 3.0 is missing the Comm panel on top LHS, was wondering which version Garmin trainer are you using or have I missed a setting to activate them?

[michaeldawson]

I liked the video. My only question is why you had to click DIRECT yo PERPU. Shouldnt the flight plan just fly to perpu once its engaged?

[nicolasfortin]

Hi, Great vid, Thx-A-Lot for that.
You are using the Garmin 400W/500W Trainer
I've downloaded this from Garmin website on 2 differents computers (version 3.00)
The VLOC feature doesn't seems to work anymore ...
did you notice that?
Which version do you use?
Thx

Great Video. You explain things very well. I watched it a few times because I've used this particular GPS only a few times. But I have to ask why you went missed at the higher altitude and didn't follow the level off procedure depicted on the chart?  Normally, you would do your best to get down to 2720 and continue to the MAWP before going missed. If you go missed a mile before the MAP, you may never see the runway that you would have otherwise been able to land on. So, was this just a limitation of the simulation and for demonstration purposes?

When I press MGS key it says approach not active ?
