So it is perfectly legal to fly the approach with just an NDB as long as you are in radio contact with ATC. How do you know that's what it means? I don't doubt you, just can't find the info/definition on the lightning bolt symbol. I suspect that piece of trivia is buried somewhere in a King course. But if you look at an approach plate labeled RADAR REQUIRED (BWI ILS 28), you will only see that symbol associated with the word "RADAR". Not at all. BED ILS 29, for example, is a radar-required approach with the jagged symbol at JAYSE and MORIS, but there's no "RADAR" label at those fixes. With all due respect, it's dangerous to attribute operational significance to an approach-chart symbol by guesswork or by suspected King trivia, if the symbol does not appear in the legend for the chart. There's no indication that a jagged line in the plan view does anything other than connect the name to the fix. --Gary |
