Getting Back in the Air

Plane and Pilot

The 172 has a steerable nosewheel, much heavier than the rudders on my RV-9A with a castering nosewheel. The plan was to shoot an instrument landing system (ILS) at the military airport next door, but clearance delivery told us they were landing the other direction. Hmm, OK, how about the LPV approach?
