There are different kinds of clearances you can get on an Arrival. If you're cleared to "descend VIA" an Arrival, then you can descend at pilot discretion to reach all of the published altitudes for each fix. Some key takeaways for pilots should be: 1. Read the Arrival charts ahead of time to find all altitude and speed restrictions. 2. Don't descend automatically on an Arrival unless you been issued a Descend Via clearance by ATC. 3. If you're not able to make a speed or altitude crossing restriction, notify ATC as soon as possible. 4. When loading an Arrival into your GPS, be aware that you may have to load a transition, even if you're not flying on a transition, but have been cleared directly to the fix for which the Arrival procedure is named. 5. Use the FLC or IAS mode on the autopilot to meet speed restriction while descending.

Send us an email If you have a question you'd like answered on the show, let listeners hear you ask the question, by recording your listener question using your phone. SummaryMax talks with Benjamin Morgan, Executive Director of AOPA Australia about the state of General Aviation in Australia. Number of Private pilots is declining. AOPA is working to inspire youth. They've acquired a bus full of simulators they drive around the country, and is buying low cost Cessna 150s for flight training. GA also faces regulatory challenges with CASA, which regulates all aviation in Australia. The number of flight instructors have declined, since independent flight instructors haven't been permitted since a rule change in 1999. After that decision, flight training declined significantly. Smaller flight schools have been unable to survive, and a significant number of the larger flight schools have been bought by China, to train pilots for SE Asia. Much training is done through local Aero Clubs, but many of these no longer have any low cost airplanes for flight training. Mentioned in the ShowAOPA Australia Max's Kangaroo Video!
