STAR Approach

Featured Replies

I selected a STAR approach and it was a complete bust.  It could have been the approach I selected, it just didn’t work correctly.  The last two legs were not what I was expecting.  It didn’t come close to a valid approach. I must be missing something.

I may need to look at how to do a STAR approach via a tutorial.

I was curious about ATC Vectors.  Is there away to integrate this into the flight plan of P2ATC,  where you are vectored to the 30’ intercept for the ILS? I am using Navigraph w/ Charts. But used SimBrief.  Is there a good method to using these tools?


Thanks!

Yes, I do it all the time. Whenever you select an ILS approach there's always an option 'Vectors to IAF' under the transition dropdown. Or you can request vectors manually via a request under the 'Approach' entry, there's an option something like 'Request vectors to ILS for {active runway}'

Thanks for the info.

I have subscribed to the Navigraph Charts.  Not sure if I am just going to convert to the annual subscription.

I think I can just use SimBrief for creating the flight plan.  So the charts is not that big of a benefit. 

I did do a vectored ILS approach and it worked for pretty well.

I did notice that P2ATC was calling out a lot of traffic, some of it was greater the 2000 - 4000 feet above or below.  Which shouldn’t be a factor.  I guess if the traffic is climbing or descending, it might be a factor. 
P2ATC is really an amazing add on app. 
 

Thanks!
