(Ron or other Jepp users, is this what the Jepp chart for the

My Jepp service only covers the East so I can't comment on that approach
per Jepp.


The Jepp chart is no different than the NACO chart. Without referring to the
profile view, it becomes ambiguous to determine the PT fix. Jeppesen doesn't
have ILSIC for the PT fix, only PRB R-138/ 3.0 DME. Still quite clear.

This is an example of how too many folks don't read IAP charts properly. Most
of the time, the PT fix is clear from the plan view, but not always. Charting
convention places the burden for clarity of the course reversal in the profile
view.



I'm surprised that the DE didn't know better.


Alas, I am not.
