STEEP DES

[ahaka 0]

Hi,What does the message "STEEP DES AFTER *navaid*" exactly mean? Does it mean that the navaid and it's altitude is too close to the airport and would require a steep descent?

'lo,It means that the VNAV path vertical angle the AC will have to fly after *navaid* to meet next altitude constraint is greater than 4.something degrees (off the top of my head).anthonyAnthony MertonPrecision Manuals Developmenthttp://www.precisionmanuals.com
