INSTRUMENT APPROACH PLATES

Each instrument approach plate consists of five sections:

Margin identification

Planview

Profile view

Landing minima section (and notes)

Aerodrome sketch

Examples of various approaches are:

KPNS

VOR RWY 19

(Figure 636)

KCEW VOR or GPSA

(Figure 637)

KPRX

VOR or GPS RWY 35

(Figure 638)

KNGP

VOR/DME Z or TACAN Z RWY 13R

(Figure 639)

KCRP

ILS RWY 13

(Figure 640)

KHST

TACAN or ILS RWY 5

(Figure 641)

Margin Identification The approach name is derived from the type facility

providing final approach course guidance. The runway number is included when the

final approach course is within 30 of runway centerline, e.g., VOR RWY 19

(Figure 636). A sequential letter code is included when the final approach course is

more than 30 (circling approach) from the runway centerline, e.g., VOR or GPSA

(Figure 637).

VOR/DME in the margin means both VOR and DME receivers and ground

equipment are required to execute the final approach. The procedure is not

authorized when either VOR or DME is inoperative. TACAN azimuth is not

authorized for course guidance.

VOR/DME or TACAN in the margin means the procedure may be executed
