RNAV 17 approach practice with a hold
Today we flew from Auburn over to Tacoma Narrows to drop off another club pilot to pick up our 182. At Tacoma, we filed IFR and shot two RNAV 17 approaches, one to a published hold, another with vectors back to Auburn on the RNAV A approach. Topped it off with unusual attitude recovery with partial panel and a DME arc off the SEA VOR.

First time flying to KBLI. We had a SW 737 behind us, which I thought was very cool. Had an issue getting the Dynon Skyview to properly display the green needles. The glide slope was working. Very nice airport, first time having a marshaller. Got the stamp, then headed back to Auburn.

Ed and I flew from Auburn to Ellensburg. Tried to pick up our IFR clearance on the way there, didn’t work out. Landed at Ellensburg, then stopped at Cle Elum. Then flew back at 4,500 through Snoqualmie Pass, an incredible experience.

The ride was moderately bumpy, but smoothed out when I arrived a...

    Instead of with request when they answer your initial call just say the request. Call up without the request- otherwise how would they know you're trying to open ifr which is a very different request than when they don't want to bother with vfr flight following.

      If we really wanted to we could call them back. The weather wasn’t a factor and we still had valuable IFR training this flight. If the weather was crappy we would have called clearance delivery on the ground before.

    Beautiful views going through the pass at the end! One of your most spectacular videos! ❤ By the way, at 8:00 I've heard it's 70 percent of your takeoff speed by half way. If you are accelerating at a constant rate, your distance travelled is proportional to the square of your speed. So if you are at .707 (square root of 1/2) of your takeoff speed halfway down the runway, you will be at your takeoff velocity at the end of the runway. That actually may not be good enough. I like your 3/4 idea better for this particular field! Even better, find your predicted takeoff roll from the manual and make sure you achieve 70 percent of takeoff speed by the time you reach half of that length. Using half of runway length can be problematic. Say you reach 70 percent of takeoff speed halfway down a 10,000' runway. That probably means you have no climb power when you rotate.
