500 feet vertically from vfr, 1000 feet vertically from other ifr, up
to FL 290. Horizontally, depends on radar and distance from antenna, but I let others verify this. Of course, on a visual approach, while still technically ifr, you can end up with very little separation indeed.

If there's one published for the approach (ie. on the chart), don't descend visually below the MDA until you pass that point. If there's none published, you can compute one for yourself as a convenience. How to compute it is a matter of personal preference. You probably want to compute a VDP that will give you about a 3 degree descent. 2. how many phases of an approach (IAP) and how do you tell each from the other Initial, intermediate, final, and maybe missed(?). Are those considered "phases"? Dunno. First is "arrival" then those 4. 3. what's a GRID MORA Minimum Off-Route Altitude. Don't know about the "GRID". Probably a reference to the lat-lon grid on your enroute chart. There's a MORA for each quadrangle. The GRID MORA is the MORA defined for a square/sector marked in the chart. In the Jeppesen Low Altitude Charts is a green number marqued in the center of the square/sector. It provides 1000ft minimum obstacle clearance. 4. what's a THINGS Don't know. 5. what's the min ATC separation under IFR Good question. I should know this, but I don't. Depends on the context. Vertical, time or for radar vectoring? 6. drift-down? What a feather does. :-) nice! :-)) Dave Remove SHIRT to reply directly. |

Hey, they've moved THING! It used to be a radar fix near Worthington, OH, on the NDB 27L approach to KOSU, and Columbus approach would normally call it out for us. It disappeared from there years ago, and I didn't know until now that it's been redesignated elsewhere. Thanks, Andrew. It's like finding a lost old friend :-) ---JRC--- its a fix east of dallas now, on the dodge 3 arrival |

Does it link up with WOTST, DODAD and no doubt others
people could think of...? John "Casey Webster" wrote in message om... "John R. Copeland" wrote in message ... Hey, they've moved THING!
