I (and just about everyone else these days) is using an IFR certified
GPS unit, but I suppose we'll be stuck with the VOR technology limits until ATC moves into the 20th century.... --Dan Ron Natalie wrote: Dan wrote: There are some places on IFR enroute charts where the OROCA (Off-route obstruction clearance altitude) is actually lower than MEAs on an airway in the same quadrant. The higher MEA is NOT due to obstacles in adjacent quadrants. MEA's are often higher because of the signal issues of the NAVAIDS involved. We got an airway here with a 9000' MEA which is way higher than the obstructions and the MVA because there's something wonky with the VOR that defines it. |
