IFR in JAX

Thanks to my new digicam...I finally get to post a little of what I'm out doing everyday. This one is from an IFR XC with an instrument student a few weeks ago...ILS right down to minimums in JAX. This was after we had gone missed once already, and the fog rose just enough. Probably looks like just another day to you northern flyers, but we don't see this down here in FL too often!

cool vid, thanks for sharing, but you got some pretty big balls taping it while your instrument student is shooting an ILS,in actual, down to mins.
 
I was going to critique the "mins" part (decided not to be an A$$), but overall good training and good video for up and comers. Looks like y'all were having fun out there.
 
Very nice videos. I spent a lot of time in the JAX area this past year. Thats def the way the weather has been. At first I was wondering if you where going into Craig but I guess not. Nice job.
 
Wait till winter rolls around....Almost every morning is like that. I used to wait for days like that just to go flying and shoot approaches. Gotta love it :)
 
Nice videos. Pretty sharp on the crosshairs.

I went down to mins. for the first time last week. Took off out of KPAE in hopes of getting some VFR-on-top work, but never found the tops. When we took off, the ceilings were at about 700' agl. By the time we got back on the ILS, they dropped down to mins. My student and I were number 4 on the approach sequence, and I was FAF inbound when I found out the guy in front of me went missed (for real).

The DA is 781' , and we broke out with about 20 feet to spare! I was a bit off centerline, and boy did that wake me up! Good experience though, .8 total flight duration, .7 actual, lot of fun! :)

I must admit that was one educational video for me. Not yet IFR rated, the visual provided a lesson on both missed and "on" approaches.
