IFR Question of the Week
(brought to you courtesy of Tim MacHugh and Komanetsky Aviation, LLC)
| Question:
Where is the Final Approach Fix for both of these Approaches?
|
| Answer:
There is no Final approach fix. When a FAF is not designated (as in both of these approaches), such
as on an approach that incorporates an on-airport VOR or NDB, this
point is typically where the procedure turn intersects the final
approach course inbound. This point is referred to as the final
approach point (FAP). So, with both of these approaches, if you do a
procedure turn, the final approach fix (FAF) is when you are
established on the final approach course for each approach. Sources:
