“Roger, contact Houston Center frequency 126.8,  Cessna 1230A.” “Houston Center, Cessna 1230A level at 4,000  feet.” “Cessna 30A, Houston Center area altimeter 29.88.” 40 miles north of Gulfport, tune in ATIS on number two  communication radio. The report reveals there has been no  change in the weather and ATIS is advertising ILS runway  14 as the active approach. Houston Center completes a hand off to Gulfport approach  control with instructions to contact approach: “Gulfport Approach, Cessna 1230A level 4,000 feet  with information TANGO. Request GPS Runway 14  approach.” “Cessna 30A, Gulfport Approach, descend and  maintain 3,000 feet.” “Descend to 3,000, Cessna 30A.” Begin a descent to 3,000 and configure your navigation radios  for the approach. The GPS automatically changes from the  en route mode to the terminal mode. This change affects the  sensitivity of the CDI. Tune in the VORTAC frequency of  109.0 on the number one navigation radio and set in the final  approach course of 133° on the OBS. This setup helps with  situational awareness should the GPS lose signal. “Cessna 30A your position is 7 miles from MINDO,  maintain 3,000 feet until MINDO, cleared for the GPS  runway 14 approach.” Read back the clearance and concentrate on flying the aircraft.  At MINDO descend to 2,000 as depicted on the approach  chart. At BROWA turn to the final approach course of  133°. Just outside the Final Approach Way Point (FAWP)  AVYUM, the GPS changes to the approach mode and the  CDI becomes even more sensitive. Gulfport approach control  issues instructions to contact Gulfport tower: “Cessna 30A contact Tower on 123.7.” “123.7, Cessna 30A.” “Tower, Cessna 1230A outside AVYUM on the GPS  runway 14.” “Cessna 30A Gulfport Tower, the ceiling is now 600  overcast and the visibility is 4 miles.” “Cleared to land runway 14, Cessna 30A.” Continue the approach, complete the appropriate checklists,  cross AVYUM, and begin the final descent. At 700 feet MSL  visual contact with the airport is possible. Slow the aircraft  and configure it to allow a normal descent to landing. As  touch down is completed, Gulfport Tower gives further  instructions: “Cessna 30A turn left at taxiway Bravo and contact  ground on 120.4.” “Roger, Cessna 30A.” Taxi clear of the runway and complete the appropriate  checklists. The tower automatically cancels the IFR flight  plan. Arrival 10-33
