Lesson #24

Log Book - 5/30 C172 IA24 KCID IA24 2 0.8

I arrived at the airport and found the plane sitting next to the fuel pumps almost full of fuel. Finally I thought to myself. I cannot remember the last time that I flew without filling up first. As I mentioned earlier we were going to go to KCID and do a couple of ILS approaches. The winds were 190/14 so there would be a sufficient crosswind to deal with on the ILS 27 (Link located below) approach. We departed on the SE runway at GCAC and I contacted CID APP for my request and was given a squawk code. I was then vectored to the ILS 27 approach. The approach went real good again and the only thing that I was having issues with was the GS with the bouncing that we were experiencing. I arrived at the DH and was lined up with the runway and went missed. I had requested a full stop landing on the second approach so that I could ground test the VOR. I called DEP after the missed and was given vectors for another approach. Given the closed taxiways at CID, they wanted me to circle to land on RWY 13. I descended down to the circle to land minimums and turned to intercept a left downwind for RWY 13. After landing, we taxied over to the VOR ground check located and checked both VOR’s. They were within limits, so I noted the amount of error and wrote up a note to put in the logs. We were given instructions to back taxi RWY 13 to depart, which we did. While we were climbing out I received my clearance back to GCAC at or below 3000’. Dale gave me vectors to a left base on RWY 15. We landed and met in the office. We discussed out next flight and decided that we would fly back down to KOTM and have me fly all 4 approaches. This would allow me to be familiar with all of them which I also plan to do on FlightSim as well.
