T-45C TS, ADV, & IUT RIFP-04
TACAN\VOR\ILS\PAR\ASR Approach Procedures
(1) With a FAF - transition to landing
configuration 5-7 nm prior to the FAF
(speed brakes up) and on-speed by 3-5 nm
(2) Without a FAF - transition to landing
configuration and on-speed when wings
level inbound on course
B.
Localizer/glidepath intercept to MAP
1.
Maintain localizer course
NOTE: The localizer is only 5 degrees wide vs 20
degrees for a TACAN or VOR signal. Heading
corrections once on the localizer should be limited to
+/- 5 degrees from WCH to maintain course. Once
established inside the OM heading corrections
should be initially limited to the number of degrees
off course with consideration of the known WCH.
C.
Glidepath intercept to MAP
1.
Start clock at FAF if timing depicted
2.
Maintain course and glidepath
3.
Monitor barometric altimeter for decision height (DH)
COMMON ERROR: Fixating on azimuth and
glideslope deviation bars, and thus dropping altitude
out of scan and descending below minimums.
D.
MFD advisories
1.
The GLIDESLOPE advisory window appears on all
four MFDs when the glideslope signal is determined
invalid
2.
The LOCALIZER advisory window appears on all
four MFDs when the localizer signal is determined
invalid
