Re: Looking for Backcountry/STOL Fans

I’d definitely be interested. We’ve done a number of backcountry cub group flights on the network that have been organized by Valdudes and JonFly. They are an absolute blast and great way to connect with fellow PE simmers. We’ve done Idaho, Pacific Northwest, and Utah Canyon Country, etc. Great idea...

Re: CAT 08 : Approach to Burbank

Not much else you can do but dive at a greater descent rate than 500 ft/min. The 5 mile ring is to the center of the airport, so it's actually about 4.4 miles to the threshold of RWY 8 and a drop of 2222 ft. So that's 500 ft/mile or 750 ft/min traveling at 90 knots . . . about a 5 degree glide slope...
