................................... What should it be? '99, Delta pattern' or something? What is the further advice when the boat is steady?....................[/size]
Not certain of it Serge. Folks with real world experience or other 'regulars' on this thread may like to chime in. I'm thinking, "99 Delta" and "99 Clear Delta, Charlie Time NOW" could be two indicative calls to commence and terminate Delta. But, these are purely my imagination and I wouldn't know what real world calls would be.

And what about the burble?
Grrrrrrrr.....
That's all I have to say.
Before 8.1, I thought I was able to shoot steady OK 3 approaches. Now, I'm happy if I just get a (OK) anywire.
With real world, Opus injected weather ON at all times, the
burble always gurgles the short finals of the approach.
Your manual says, "the burble needs to be compensated by appropriate application of thrust and maneuvering".
I'll be damned if I can train my reflexes fast enough to do that. There's just no time for that at all.
The only good part is, I KNOW it's always going to be there just as I cross the ramp (On my rig, it always happens), so I'm kinda anticipating it, and am ready to counter it with controls.
But despite all my efforts, I'm not able to eliminate the burble caused variation in flight path. I just fly 'through' it
The vLSO tolerance close to ramp is so narrow, that on more than a couple of occasions, the burble has also caused the vLSO to give me a waveoff, but despite pushing the throttles to the stop, I still arrest and earn a cut pass.
Just no time to execute a go around at those heights and speeds.
Thank you for this effect Serge. It will take me tons of training to be able to learn how to handle the burble.
Grrrrr again!!!
