Turn ASAP 2

25.10.2004

Submission:

If I read Pans-Ops correctly, one must either specify that no turns may be made prior to the Missed Approach Point (MAP/MAWP) or the turn must be protected from the Final Approach Fix. Another way of saying it: if the earliest turn point is not specified as the MAPt, then turn initiation begins at the FAWP. This opinion is based on Figure III-7-21.

Lew Center, United States

Answer or Commentary:

(I.W

That works fine if the MAPt is defined as a fix (i.e. non-precision). If the approach chart states "no turns prior to the missed approach point" and it is an ILS approach how is the Earliest MAPt line defined?)

Do you want comment this article or ask something?
