Suppose I don't have a GPS, and I want to fly the VOR/DME-A
(http://naco.faa.gov/d-tpp/0512/00662VDA.PDF). The IAF is KACCY, which
doesn't appear on the enroute chart and is not on any airway, and doesn't
have a feeder route. How do I get there?

KACCY is on a feeder route. Have a look at Boulder City VOR (BLD).
The line running from there to KACCY intersection along BLD R-225
is a feeder route (it has the three prerequisites: Altitude (7100),
distance (21.7) and direction (225 deg).


Ah, so it is. I was looking at the other end of the arrow, and it was a
thin line so I assumed it was just a radial for identifying KACCY.

The VOR/DME-A also shows a transition from LAS to KACCY, 7100', 180 deg.,
16.5 miles


Ah, I see. Thanks!

OK, this is all starting to make more sense now.
