Additionally, a pilot should report any of the following events:: When vacating any previously assigned altitude or flight level for a newly assigned altitude or flight level ( AIM 5-3-3 ) When an altitude change will be made if operating on a clearance specifying VFR-on-top. ( AIM 5-3-3 ) When an approach has been missed. (

I requested a descent from 6,000’ down to 4,000’ and was denied due to traffic. I was soon cleared to descend to 4,000’ and entered IMC during the descent while I located the approach chart to brief. I began a rapid descent from 3,000’ down to the 2,000’ for the IAF. The IAF was looming closer. Sometimes simpler is better.

You’re skimming the cloud tops at 3500 feet, which is 2900 feet AGL You ask Approach for lower, but the controller says you’re already at the MVA for the area so you can’t get lower. You can’t cancel IFR, because you won’t be able to maintain VFR cloud clearance requirements. NM past the airport only to turn around and come back.

Any substantial changes to speed and descent rate will destabilize the landing. This can greatly impact landing performance and obstacle clearance. x V SO (or POH recommendation) by around 500 feet AGL. The drag allows for a steeper descent, which is particularly helpful when avoiding obstacles.

Put the aircraft in level flight to give them a moment to consider their next course of action so they are not anxiously doing climbs, descents, and unplanned turns. These flights work best if they are limited to an airport 10 to 15 miles away.

It is based on the pilot’s judgment of certain visual clues, and depends on the maintenance of a constant final descent airspeed and configuration. The destination is a couple thousand feet above sea level, with an RNAV approach that depicts a higher-than-normal descent gradient to a down-sloping runway. The ceiling is 800 ft overcast.
