| TURBINE PILOT | SIM WARMUP Coming to terms with quirky procedures BY THE TIME YOU'VE REACHED the stage where you're flying turbine equipment, you've probably done your fair share of instrument flying-and flown out of many, many airports. But it's a fair guess that you visit many of the same airports on a regular basis, and that most Americans haven't had the need to fly outside the United States. While all this is typical, it's also true that a certain cohort of the owner-flown turbine pilot population has wanderlust. Distant, exotic locales beckon, and what better than a turbine-powered airplane to get you there? Psychologically speaking, you have the means, the method, and the motive to do some exploring.
