How do I fly this approach?

First, by what authority did you descend 700 feet flow the MEA for V-187 simply because you were within 25 miles of AST? The MEA is 5,000 all the way to AST VOR. That is basic chart reading. The plate gives the MSA within a 25-nm radius. Once I was within the 25-nm radius, I could safely descend to the MSA, and I did so, because it facilitated entering the approach. You must think you are in Canada. MSAs are emergency altitudes only in the U.S. Then, when you turn around at about 12 miles and headed north you departed protected airspace. I'm not sure what you mean by protected airspace. Once I was clear of the Seattle Class B, the rest of the flight was conducted entirely in Class E airspace, right up to landing. Airspace protected from obstacles. The 19 DME arc is available only to non-radar arrivals on on V-27 (R-328) from the northwest or V-27 (R-166) from the south. For any other arrival the approach begins at AST via the feeder route to KARPEN, then the procedure turn. Okay. How do you know this? Explain where and how it is documented on the plate, or where it is documented elsewhere, so that I can look it up. Chief counsel's November, 1994 legal ruling on use of IAP's in non-radar conditions. It is available on Summit's Aviation Reference Library: The letter states in part: "You also ask whether a Distance Measuring Equipment (DME) arc initial approach segment can be substituted for a published IAF along any portion of the published arc. A DME arc cannot be substituted for a published IAF along a portion of the published arc." |
