Here you can discuss about Lesson 11: Local Navigation
Briefing notes state that we are to start this flight from Bravo , go to point Alpha, then take off from 28 after doing runup. How does one get from Alpha to 28 without reversing the entire taxi route?
If takeoff is on runway 28, why is the designated route through holding point Alpha?
I plan to start from Bravo, taxi east on November, do runup on holding point for runway 28, and then takeoff.
If I am missing something, please advise.

GordonNG,
I have made it to part2 of Navigraph Academy and on Lesson11 Local Navigation. Where do I get/see the chart for this lesson? I do not see it on the resource tab for download. Does this require a Navigraph Subscription to continue with the Academy? I have learned alot thus far so please advise. Thanks.

Academy is free, you do not need a subscription in order to join/fly the lessons.
Thanks!
GordonNG,
Thanks for the quick reply. That was not my question since I am already through most of the lessons which are very informative. My question was regarding the Navigraph charts. It appears you need the subscription but in the video for lesson 11 I finally found the answer that a subscription is needed to use the Navigraph charts but we can use any flight charting software we like to complete the lessons.
Two suggestions. 1: please make this clear in the lesson text and not just a quick mention in the video. 2: Suggest Navigraph offer a limited demo of the Navigraph charts to complete these 2 final lessons for the flight area used and be available at the resource link. This would be a good advertisement for your Navigraph chart product. Please pass this input to your management for consideration.
Thanks.
Rich
Apologies, Rich,
Yes, in order to view Navigraph Charts, you do need a current subscription. We have been discussing a limited view/usage of charts, however it is quite complicated.
Of course, these conversations will continue.
Thanks!

I hope you can help me. I have completed the training lessons and exam given for phase2 of the course. I did get this email below. I passed all the lessons in the course but for some reason the first lesson never gets marked complete. I think this is why I never got to take the first exam, correct?
I thought I had to finish both phase 1 and 2 first to take the 2 exams.
Can you please mark lesson one complete for me. I have tried a few times to execute this lesson with no success. I can then take the phase 1 exam. If this is not the case, please let me know what I need to do to finish this course.
You have been very helpful in the past. Thanks again for your help.
The course was excellent and learned much.
