Approaches 2.9.4.1.1, 2.9.4.3.3
1.
Clearance
a.
An aircraft which has been cleared to a holding
fix and subsequently “cleared for approach” has
not received new routing. Routing via the
holding fix is still required
b.
Clearance for the approach does not clear an
aircraft to descend from assigned altitude to IAF
altitude, if being radar vectored or on an
unpublished route
c.
Aircraft using the high altitude can file for a low
altitude approach
d.
Commencing approach/leaving altitude aircraft
must be established on a segment of approach
e.
Approach is considered to have commenced
when passing the highest IAF altitude for any
approach at that field on an en route descent
f.
ATIS ceiling/visibility omitted if greater than
5,000/5
g.
SFA required for single-piloted night or IMC
h.
Altimeter reset errors 1" = 1,000 ft
