LAMBOURNE arrival...help please.

[Guest Paragon]

I'm trying to figure out how to fly this arrival according to the chart. Since my planned flightlevel is above 250 I should enter the LOGAN intersection via the UM604 airway. Here's my problem. I start off from EFHK and fly from RUNEN via UN872 to Eel VOR. How do I get on to the UM604 airway from there?I need this for the Heathrow fly-in tomorrow and I just don't know how to get onto the airway...please help.

Thank you very much. Just a quick question. What are these NO428F300 and the others? Plus I thought I had to join the LOGAN intersection via UM206 if I planned to fly higher than 250?

[Guest Paragon]

I think I read the chart wrong...I don't have to come via UM604. My other question still stands though. :)

NO428 = 428 KTS TASF300 = FL300HTH

[Guest Paragon]

So they are going from FL380 to FL300 and then up again to FL360?

[Guest Mark McG]

Looks like it. There are some variable factors in the Airway routes that could be in effect - Airway only available at a particular FL for that direction of traffic, volume of traffic etc.

The reality would be probably be different though, with the a/c likely to maintain its cruising level until given descent at the calculated TOD point.

Agreed, those are "requested" altitude changes.ATC permission is still required to change altitude, and ATC can just as easily amend the flightplan enroute for any other altitudes they want.
