FRAME 1
Instrument approach procedures are a series of predetermined
maneuvers for the orderly transfer of an aircraft under instrument flight
conditions from the beginning of the initial approach to a landing or to
a point from which a landing may be made visually. They are prescribed
and approved for a specific airport by competent authority.
Turn to the extract from the DOD FLIP (Terminal) Low Altitude,
United States, pages 279 through 310. Like other FLIPs, this publication
gives a list of the abbreviations used (page 281). It has a table of
contents which indexes the instrument approach procedures charts
portrayed (page 282) and a legend (page 284). The legend explains the
plan view symbols and the profile. It also gives the standard format for
portrayal of landing minima on the charts.
