CHAPTER FIVE

T-6A INSTRUMENT NAVIGATION

NOTES

1. As a technique, airspeed may be reduced to 150 kts inside of

3 minutes prior to reaching the FAF for all course reversal

maneuvers, particularly if winds are a factor. Whatever technique

is used, exercise sound judgment to not exceed the specified

"remain within" distance.

2. When a teardrop maneuver is depicted (Figure 5-3 and 5-4)

and a course reversal is required, this type of procedure turn must

be executed.

Do NOT execute a procedure turn when:

Radar vectors to the FAC are provided.

When conducting a timed approach.

A holding pattern is specified in lieu of a procedure turn (Figure 5-5) or approach can be

made from a properly aligned holding pattern (Figure 5-6).

The procedure specifies no procedure turn (NoPT) (Figure 5-7).

Procedure turn not authorized (the plan view does not depict a procedure turn "barb"

symbol).
