Procedure Turn Outbound timing.
Asked by: Steve 11051 views Commercial Pilot, FAA Regulations, Flight Instructor, General Aviation, Instrument Rating
Hello Everyone,
I am not sure if this is only used in our school or not, but I writing to clarify the myth behind the outbound timing on procedure turn.

Let us say that we are shooting the approach above, VOR16 a@ KDAB and the VOR is located outside the KDAB. So, upon crossing the VOR, I was taught to fly outbound for 1min, since it is non-terminal(NAVAID not based @ KDAB) and initiate the procedure turn. I have look through the AIM and there were no pertinent information regarding 1min/2min rule.
Can anyone provide me with credible sources or explain how these came up?
Steve
