Yes, that's what he's saying. Experienced pilots do not calibrate every flight. The last time I calibrated, I couldn't even remember for sure how to do it - it had been so long. I literally had to check the manual. I'm not making this up.
Why not calibrate every flight? Because you might end up with a bad calibration whereas you had a good one before you calibrated.
Re distance, some say 50 miles, some say 100 miles, some say 300 miles distance before calibration is needed.
Bottom line: If you are reasonably sure you had a good calibration last flight, there is no need to calibrate next flight - unless you think you've traveled some great distance since the last flight. |
