So I'm about 38 lessons into IR. It's fun I have about 6 hours of actual logged as well. I do pretty good talking with ATC and doing the GPS approaches. Those just seem to come naturally...I use the magenta line for situation awareness more then anything else. It's the VOR approaches that get me everytime. Not sure if it's because we do it last and I'm mentally drained or what the real issue is. I recognize I start the clock at the IAF and descend down to my DA but it all seems to go amuck. Especially going missed...sure the GPS and the approach plate tells me where it is but getting back around to it I freeze. It's like I'm relieved to be back flying again and want to quit working so hard. To be specific it's the VOR18 approach into 1G0 (one golf zero) I don't know what/when to set my VOR back to VWV. We have two VOR's so I hear that is helpful but if you have words of advice I'd love to read it.
