Ακριβώς τις ίδιες λειτουργίες με τα από πάνω !!

CATCH POINT: transition from high point fix to STAR

Compulsory waypoints ειναι bold και θα πρεπει να αναφερουμε τη θεση μας στο ΑΤCοταν
ειμαστε ανωθεν.
Όταν είναι σκιαγραφημένο με μαύρο τότε είναι για front η back course .

COP=changeover point θα πρεπει να αλλαξουμε απο το ενα VOR στο αλλο.

Τα πυκνά και πολλα μαζί μικρά βελάκια είναι ότι έχουμε radar vectoring.

PILOT NAV = το departure route βασιζεται εξ ολοκληρου στον πιλοτο και καποιες φορες
μπορει να δεχτει vectors.

Ta radar vectors ειναι radar navigation guidance to an assigned route.

Εάν δεν θελουμε να ακολουθησουμε τα published STAR or SID τοτε στα remarks του flight
plan θα πρπει να γραψουμε ΝΟ STAR NO SID

To κανονικό κυκλακι σημαίνει ότι ο χάρτης είναι standard

Το να έχει στο αριστερό μέρος πιο μαυρισμένο outline τοτε σημαινει οτι η διαδικασια ειναι
διαφορετικη για την εταιρεια μασ
Αν έχει Μ στο outline σημαινει οτι χρησιμοποιουνται

Όλα τα bearings ειναι magnetic διαφορετικα εχουν ενα μεγαλο Τ που σημαινει οτι ειναι true

NOPT=NO PROCEDURE TURN χρειαζεται ειτε reversal, racetrack

Μεγάλο μαύρο βελάκι = approach transition

Μικρό μαύρο βελάκι = en route transition

D4/8= ο πρώτος αριθμός είναι για τον inbound δλδ την αποσταση που εχουμε απο το fix.

Όταν ο χρόνος για το holding ειναι αλλοσ απο αυτο του standard θα αναγραφεται μεσα σε
ενα black box.

When terrain within the approach chart plan view exceeds 4000 ft above a/p elevation or
when terrain within 6 NM of the ARP rises to at least 2000ft terrain contour info may be
depicted.

Visual Descent Point (V) =a defined point on the final approach course of a non-precision
straight-in approach procedure from which normal descent from the MDA to the runway
touchdown point may be commenced, provided the approach threshold of that runway, or
approach lights, or other markings identifiable with the approach end of that runway are
clearly visible to the pilot.”

Ουσιαστικά κάνω το MDH/300ft παιρνω το υψος το οποιο ειναι μεσα στην παρενθεση

Maltezer cross= FAF

LOC(GS out)= Localizer approach (Glideslope is out) is identified as a localizer approach

with glide slope out

For some approaches= ceiling is required

Kατω κάτω στα plates οταν το RVR and the VSIBILITY ειναι το ιδιο δινεται ενα value .
Διαφορετικά θα δοθούν δυο values ενα για το rvr και ενα για το visibility.
INSTRUMENT APPROACH PROCEDURE DESIGN INDICATOR PANS-OPS or TERPS

The "PANS-OPS'' margin notation indicates that the State has specified that the instrument
approach procedure complies with the ICAO Procedures for Air Navigation Services -
Aircraft Operations (PANS OPS) DOC 8168, Volume II, 1st or 2nd Edition. Aircraft
handling speeds for these procedures are shown on Introduction Page 2 under "AIRCRAFT
APPROACH CATEGORY (ICAO)''. Known deviations to these handling speeds are
charted.
"
PANS OPS 3" further indicates that holding speeds to be used are those specified in DOC
8168, Volume II, 3rd Edition.
'
'PANS OPS 4" further indicates that the acceleration segment criteria have been deleted as
formerly published in DOC 8168, Volume II, 3rd Edition. Jeppesen Air Traffic Control
("200" Series) pages provide an extract of the latest PANS OPS DOC 8168, Volume I and
the earlier version, concerning holding speeds. Holding speed tables for both the earlier
edition and the later editions 3 and 4 of PANS OPS are included in these pages.
"
TERPS" indicates that the State has specified that the instrument approach procedure
complies with the United States Standard for Terminal Instrument Procedures. Note: Charts
dated prior to 21 NOV 03 do not include a TERPS margin notation.

Note: Τhe absence of a PANS OPS or TERPS margin notation means the instrument
approach design criteria are unknown.

Σε περίπτωση που το chart δεν εχει published straight in διαδικασια δεν παει να πει οτι η
πιλοτος αν κρινει οτι μπορει να προσγειωθει ως straight in
The fact that straight-in minimums are not published does not preclude the pilot from
landing straight-in, using published circling minimums, if the straight-in runway is in sight
with sufficient time to make a normal approach for landing. Under such conditions, and
when Air Traffic Control has provided clearance to land on that runway, the pilot is not
expected to circle even though straight-in minimums are not published. However, if a
circling maneuver is desired, the pilot should advise ATC.

VOT= VOR TEST FREQUENCY ουσιαστικά εκπέμπει ένα signal προκειμενου να τεσταρει
ποσο ακριβες ειναι το σημα που λαμβανει απο το VOR.
English=A ground facility which emits a test signal to check VOR receiver accuracy

UNICOM=universal communications δεινει πληροφοριες στο α/σ οταν δεν υπαρχει πυργος.
JET BLAST BARRIER OR DEFLECTOR = provide protection from the wind, noise and
heat that jets produce.They can be moved or to be capable of being raised and lowered.

Pierced steel planking runway=διαδρομος με αλουμινιο κατω οπωσ ειχαν κατα την διαρκεια
του πολεμου διοτι δεν ειχαν χρονο να στεριωσει το τσιμεντο.
Landing beyond t/o τι ειναι το grooved

LIGHTS:
HIRL=High Intensity Runway Εdge Lights
• White
• AMBER —> Last 2000ft or Half the runway whichever is less

Όταν το configuration του διαδρομου ωσ προσ τα φωτα ειναι διαφορετικο τοτε θα
προσδιοριζεται οπως το παραπανω παραδειγμα!!!

Πως διαχωρίζω τι plate ειναι
Ότι έχει κύκλο είναι fly over waypoint και πρεπει αναγκαστικα να περασουμε απο πανω
πριν στριψουμε για το καινουργιο course.
Fly by δεν χρειαζεται να περασω απο πανω μπορω να στρεψω και πιο νωρις.

VNAV descent info from FAF to TCH height in ft

Από τον παρακάτω πίνακα κρατάμε ότι υπάρχει chart για low Visibility taxi routes!!!
??????? PAGE 95?????If not published by the procedure source, a table depicting DME vs
altitude, distance vs altitude, or timing vs altitude will be calculated by Jeppesen and shown
above the profile view. The timing table includes the descent angle, the FAF and the altitude
at the FAF. Altitudes are calculated for 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100s from FAF and are based on
speeds of 90, 120, 140, 160 and 180kt. Only altitudes above the decision altitude are
provided.
Sample of timing vs altitude table
Where CDFA minimums are shown, the profile will be modified to depict the continuous
descent. The missed approach pull-up arrow is shown at the point where the decision height
is reached. There is no levelsegmentdepictedpriortotheMAP,andtheMAP is shown as
published by the procedure source.

In non-precision approaches shall be flown by using the CDFA technique with DA(H) and
the missed approach shall be executed when reaching the DA(H) or MAP whichever occurs
first.δειξε μου ενα παραδειγμα σε plate!!!!!

Sample of Non-precision Minimums (CDFA)

Sample of Non-precision Minimums (CDFA + non-CDFA)

Όταν θα έχεις μόνο DA(H) η διαδικασία μπορεί να πεταχτεί μόνο σαν CDFA ενώ αν έχει
και MDA(H) μπορεί να πεταχτεί και ωσ non CDFA.

Το πρώτο βελάκι πριν το MAP είναι για να ξεκινήσουμε το missed approach procedure οταν
η διαδικασια που πεταμε ειναι non CDFA.
To δεύτερο βελάκι μετά το MAP ειναι για να ξεκινησουμε το missed approach οταν η
διαδικασια που πεταμε ειναι CDFA.
!πολύ απλά όταν είμαστε πιο accurate μπορουμε να κατεβουμε πιο κατω αρα τα minima και
το MAP θα ειναι πιο κατω!

GNSS INCLUDE ALL NAV DATABASE IDENTIFIERS σελ=105 ειναι πχ

AWIZO????????
Σε GNSS/GPS το FAF αναγράφεται ωσ FF31 σελ=113

The descent angle accuracy may be affected by temperature. When the outside air
temperature is lower than standard, the actual descent angle will be lower.

?????????FINAL COCKPIT AUTHORITY, CHARTS OR DATABASE

???????There are differences between information displayed on your airborne avionics
navigation system and the information shown on Jeppesen charts. The charts, supplemented
by NOT- AMs, are the final authority. ??????

AIRAC - Aeronautical Information Regulation and Control. Designates the revision cycle
specified by ICAO, normally 28 days.

• Aeronautical information is constantly changing: airspace structures and routes are

revised, navigation aids change, SIDs and STARs are amended, runway and taxiway
information changes. It is essential, for both efficiency and safety, that pilots, dispatchers,
air traffic controllers, air traffic flow managers, flight management systems and aeronautical
charts all have the same information working from the same information base.
!!!!!!!This can only be achieved by adhering to the AIRAC schedule.!!!!!!!!

ARINC - Aeronautical Radio, Inc παροχος λυσεων επικοινωνιων.

ATD - Along Track Distance, as "3 NM to RW24". H αποσταση που εχουμε απο ενα σημειο
για ενα αλλο.

CNF - Computer Navigation Fix

DATABASE IDENTIFIER - Avionics system use only, not for flight plans or ATC
communica- tions. Identifies a waypoint or fix.

FACF - Final Approach Capture Fix.

MCA - Minimum Crossing Altitude=is the lowest altitude at which a navigational fix can be
crossed when entering or continuing along an airway that will allow an aircraft to clear all
obstacles while carrying out a normal climb to the required minimum en route IFR altitude
(MEA) of the airway in question beyond the fix.

MRA - Minimum Reception Altitude=The minimum altitude the navigation signal can be
received for the route and for off-course navaid facilities that determine a fix.
