Approach Examples

identify FORRS (D13.0), CERAB (D18.0), and the missed approach point (D23.0).DME Arc Example

The following example uses Baltimore’s VOR DME 15 to demonstrate the approach to Martin State Airport. The approach uses a 14.7 DME clockwise arc to guide the aircraft to Runway 15.

1.Before reaching SLOAF, tune the Nav receiver to the Baltimore VOR. Intercept and follow Baltimore’s 334° radial (154° bearing) until you reach SLOAF.

2.In your Apollo GPS, select the BAL VOR as the destination waypoint.

3.Prior to SLOAF, start a turn to approximately 064º to intercept the published arc.

4.On the Apollo GPS, read the bearing to the BAL VOR. Adjust the aircraft’s bearing so the right wing aligns with the bearing to the VOR. In other words,
