What is T approach plate?

When a “T” in a black triangle appears in the notes section of the instrument approach chart, it signifies the airport has IFR takeoff minimums and/or departure procedures published in Section L of the TPP.

What defines a precision approach?

A precision approach is an instrument approach and landing using precision lateral and vertical guidance with minima as determined by the category of operation. The controller uses the PAR display to guide the pilot or flight crew through the final stages of landing, providing horizontal and vertical guidance.

What is the primary difference between a precision and non-precision approach?

LAAS is based on GPS signals that are then supplemented by ground equipment. Precision Approach Radar (PAR) approaches involve radar and two-way radio communications. The controller provides the pilot headings, altitudes, and necessary corrections to remain on course.

What are the numbers in parentheses on an approach plate?

Military uses them. But they are useful for taking a quick look at the chart to see how low you can go. As stated, the numbers in parenthesis are for the military. The small number in between the minimums and military mins the height above airport (HAA) or, more simply, your AGL altitude at the MDA or DH.

What do you mean by an approach plate?

Approach plates (or, more formally, instrument approach procedure charts) are the printed charts of instrument approach procedures that pilots use to fly instrument approaches during instrument flight rules (IFR) operations.

What is the approach plate for Runway 31C?

An approach plate for the ILS or LOC/DME approach to runway 31C at Chicago Midway International Airport. Approach plates (or, more formally, instrument approach procedure charts) are the printed charts of instrument approach procedures that pilots use to fly instrument approaches during instrument flight rules (IFR) operations.

What is the MDA of a Category C aircraft?

For example, a category C aircraft performing a full ILS approach will have a DH of 213ft and a minimum RVR (runway visual range) of 1800ft while a category D aircraft performing a circling approach will have a MDA of 1160ft with a minimum visibility of 3 statute miles.

What kind of approaches are available in Canada?

In Canada, Nav Canada maintains the Canada Air Pilot (CAP), which contains all Transport Canada -approved approaches. The Restricted Canada Air Pilot (RCAP), contains additional approaches available to commercial operators who have been granted Op Spec 099.
