There are two ways turn 10 and twist 10. But another option is turn 90º and just play with your DME if you DME Distance increase you are flying away from the VOR , and if your distance decreases that means you are getting closer to the VOR, in either way you just need to fly a heading to correct that. And remember that you have 0.5 DME of allowances.
An easier way is to tune the course TO the vor. You can twist 10 degrees after each segment till you’ve reached the published inbound course heading. I’ve always found it less confusing doing it this way.
If we're training pilots to fly higher performance aircraft, wouldn't it be better to teach how to actually fly the arc vs. the "turn 10 / twist 10" technique? A foundational understanding of the 60-1 rule, aircraft turn radius and basic instrument techniques (keeping the VOR on the 90 degree mark and making small adjustments to keep the DME within a reasonable tolerance) will keep pilots on the arc safely within tolerances, regardless of aircraft or airspeed flown. Air Force teaches this technique in T-6s, T-1s and T-38s, and it works for all aircraft.
nice video congratulations, I have a question. using this method I notice that I continually move away from the station, but if my selected radial always remains perpendicular to the heading I am at the same distance, could anyone explain to me why?
To help with the wind is there is any, shouldn't it always be blowing to the outside of the arc? Because, if you're using the arc to set up for an approach you should be flying into the wind on that approach for the runway.
In TERPS it's specified that when a DME Arc is used to define an Intermediate Approach Segment the DME facility should be collocated with the NAVAID (VOR/NDB). In PANS-OPS this is not specified, is positive course guidance assured if the DME Arc is not collocated with the NAVAID facility? If no, what are you basing this on?
After turning 90 degrees to join the arc, afterward why can't you just watch for DME distance, if the DME distance is increasing, meaning you are flying away from the arc so you better start turn towards inside a bit vice versa or even easier way keep your VOR always 90 degree of your current heading eh . wouldn't this work out better ?
This was an awesome explanation. DME Arcs always terrified me, but this made them super simple
"Small excursion off course" This man must be a legend with diplomatic speaking. Great clip, very well explained!
One of the coolest dudes ever! BRING MORE Z MAN! WAZZZ UPPP
Assuming I pass my instrument check ride next week, I owe you all a beer.
2 year late response lol, how was it?
@@iScyntax haha, I passed! Now, about to take Commercial checkride!
You won’t be tested on a dme arc unless your airport has one. Is this true?
@@johnsmithh662not true you will be tested for it regardless
@@zacharynorman397how did the commercial check go
came here for a refresher on DME Arcs and that approach happens to be the next one I'm doing. Trippy
you guys are doing incredible videos and very useful WELL DONE and thanks a lot.!!!!!!!!
Working on my CFII right now and today am teaching the first dme arc lesson. Perfect timing!
The explanation of this video plus his voice reminds me of the safety videos prior to rides at disney or universal, great explanation thank you!
I love this professor!! such a great voice
Captain thank you so much for an awesome video very professionally done

Your videos are fantastic, thank you so much from London.
another level of teaching ！ great work
Fantastic video. Thank you!
Excellent video! Thanks
I mean everybody should watch this!
please do not stop guys, your videos are fantastic! kind regards Patrick
Beautiful demonstration! Thank you.
Great explanation. Thank you!!
Z Man at it again with another save
Awesome video
Captain Z! The voice behind these famous videos. What a surprise lol
These videos are great--and getting better. I have a suggestion for a video. How about one that discusses IFR flight planning. Thanks!
Great video, thank you!
Very cool, Thank You Captain.

Amazing explaination, greetings from Argentina!
My long time doubt finally solved about DME ARC, how to maintain 10 DME ARC Finally got it
Many thanks for the informative video!
THANK GOD FOR ERAU VIDEOS👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
clear& prof......great capt.
Great voice
This is amazing. Makes it much more clear. Thank you!
This was awesome, thank you!!
You're amazing, I learnt a lot from you

Great video! Thank you :)
great video
Follow the magenta when in doubt
bruh ERAU kids be like
Amazing!!!
what will be the instructions be like from ATC for DME ARC?
Why does the instructor say the VOR is "on the field" for the ELN VOR A?
nice video congratulations, I have a question. using this method I notice that I continually move away from the station, but if my selected radial always remains perpendicular to the heading I am at the same distance, could anyone explain to me why?
amazing
Speed X .75
Lmao this is my home airport.

What is the tolerance of the dme arc procedure
Who is this guy I want to learn from him

Good point, you could do it that way... my question was , what do you do when you are 2.5 miles off on the DME arc? Can you correct or go missed?
the turn 10 twist 10 method is actually easier.
Say. I am travelling in a faster aircraft, at what dme should I turn 90 deg to join the dme arc ?
Would you mind sending formula of Arc distance from IAF UP TO FINAL APP?
Can it be a TO indication while flying an arc ?

Are these specifically for VOR approaches?
How do I know which way to turn?😢
Wassupppppp
