Second- the exam: There are two errors in the cockpit photo on approach to Denver Stapleton. What are the two errors?

Bill, Is that Connie from calclassics? lr. Lou, I'll answer for Bill on your question. Take a look at the December Feature of the month and you will find the file names there. Bill

Lou, I can't see any errors. Airspeed 125 kts ias looks good. Rate of descent seems a little high but not too excessive. Where is your glideslope and localizer? No ILS?? You screenshot seems to be narrower than the 800 width I use. Bill here is my connie panel. Looks like yours. I added the modern autopilot as well.

Bill, looks like Lou is above the glideslope. It is the small white triangle on the left side of the heading indicator and the instrument above that. That's where it usually is anyway.

Okay. Airpseed and sink rates are okay. Localizer is just a tad to the right- in the photo it's hard to see, but the indicator is there. Yes, a bit high on the approach, but, for whatever reason, all my visual approaches -real world- are a bit higher than usual. Why? I have always just done it that way. IFR approaches are always right on (or at least I try). Errors. Check the altitude- we're at thhe old Denver Stapleton field. The missed approach altitude should be set in the ALT window and the heading bug should be set for missed approach heading- even on a visual. The initial climb on missed approach wouldn't be 7,000 feet and there would be a change of heading due to the mountains and city right past the field. lr.
