Some preferred routes may terminate with a "STAR" description. This "STAR" description is an

abbreviation for STANDARD TERMINAL ARRIVALS. At selected airfields the pilot is to

refer to the STAR publication that corresponds with the destination airfield.

NOTE

There are Preferred IFR Routes established for both the Low and

High Altitude Route Structures. Do not mistake one for the other.

An example of a high altitude preferred route originating in the

Albany area is shown in Figure 2-4.
