T-45C TS, ADV, & IUT RIFP-04
TACAN\VOR\ILS\PAR\ASR Approach Procedures
II.
Approach plates
A.
Plan ahead, review approach plates before arriving at the
IAF
B.
Study and prepare to use all compatible NAVAIDS
should primary recovery plan change
C.
VOR instrument approaches use direct overflight of
D.
TACAN DME allows pilot to determine exact points, e.g.,
IAF, FAF, MAP, intersections, holding limits, etc
III. PAR and ASR approach procedures
A.
ASR and PAR patterns identical up to final approach
B.
ASR and PAR provide course and range information
C.
ASR is a non-precision approach
D.
PAR provides glidepath guidance
E.
ASR provides less precise guidance due to lower
resolution Final Approach Course (FAC) radar
IV. ILS approach
A.
ILS approach usually follow enroute descent or begin
with a HI-TACAN or VOR penetration
B.
Tune and identify ILS and set final approach course
before localizer intercept
C.
Marker beacons are often provided as progress
reference points
D.
Primary ILS reference is the ADI display ILS steering
needles
E.
Start timing at FAF for another method of determining
MAP if glideslope signal lost and DME not available
