MOCA and STAR
Ok, I am trying to brush off some of the rust and getting some
recurrent training. The task was to plan a flight, KLOU-KLEX-KJVY. (Louisville,KY). So, I looked up the STAR Clegg2 ( http://204.108.4.16/d-tpp/0702/00697CLEGG.PDF), and the charts. Clegg2 *seems* to make the KLOU-KLEX simple- just hit IIU, out on 080 to Clegg. But when I look at the IFR Enroute, that happens to be the V512 airway as well, which has a 10,000 MEA and a 2700 MOCA ( WHY the 10K, I can;t figure out). So, I looked up the AIM on MOCA, and it tells me this is used for "decending for approach". So, will I get a clearance KLOU IIU.CLEGG2 KLEX @ 3000? |

The IIU 080 radial is not a procedure track, the radial is used only to define CLEGG intersection. |

STARs often have very high MEA's (and speeds) which are meant for turbojets descending from higher altitudes. However, it is a good question why the enroute MEA is 10k for V512. It may have something to do with the fact that the FFT VOR is a T class. I can't imagine there is anything taller than 3000' around there. |
