A brief explanation of the VR-1023 route follows:

Number - 1023

Type - VR

Weather minima - 3,000/5

Scheduling Activity - FACSFACNPA, NAS Pensacola, V 922-2735

Hours of Operation - 1200-04002++ weekdays, occasional weekends

Altitude data - Prior to point "A", as assigned by ATC if IFR or any applicable VFR altitude if

VFR down to 1000 feet AGL.

From point "A" to "C" you have a block altitude (B) of 500 feet AGL and 1500 feet AGL.

Five miles SE of point D must cross at 1000 feet AGL. Point locations -Point "A" is on the

Semmes (SJI) VORTAC 169 radial at 22 NM. (This FAC/RAD/DIST description is useful

when airborne, but for preflight planning purposes you should use the Lat./Long position, as

given in the route description, to plot the points on your VNA V chart).

Special Operating Procedures - You should read and adhere to all restrictions that apply to your

route.

Aerial Refueling Tracks/Anchors (AR)

The conduct of aerial refueling is based on the strict requirement that participating aircraft

remain within specifically designated airspace. Aerial refueling operations are normally

conducted on tracks or in anchor areas published in this document, and will be conducted under

Instrument Flight Rules. These routes are of primary concern to US Air Force aircraft. Naval

aircraft will conduct in-flight refueling where dictated by operational requirements.
