VFR flight help

Featured Replies

Very good, returning to the simulator after a while, I decided to add a little more professionalism using the navigation charts, but there are certain things that I cannot understand, I hope you can guide me a bit.

I am going to make a flight from SKVV (Villavicencio-Colombia) to SKBO (Bogota-Colombia), this flight will do with VFR procedures.

The SKVV navigation chart shows the following:

Chart SKVV

Now tracing the route by little Nav Map, I see that the destination airport (SKBO), would be making an exit towards the WEST ....

Little Nav Map

So the navigation chart tells me the following:

SKVV

So tracing that output in the little Nav Map would look like this ...

Little Nav Map

Ready, now I put my reference coordinates to fly, leaving "Acacias", turn to take "Guayabetal", heading to "Caqueza" .....

Little Nav Map

Now assuming everything is correct, how would the arrival at SKBO airport do it?

These two SKBO navigation charts I found.

Chart SKBO 1

Chart SKBO 2

If we take the first letter, the entry must be made by any of the following points, since it is the address where I come from ?:

- BO481
- BO480
- BO479
- BO416
- BO415

 

Not sure I'm fully understanding the question, but the RNP C, RNP D procedure's you refer to, start at the fix AMVES 20nm NW of SKBO, you are flying to SKBO from the southeast, so neither of those charts apply as a procedure. It's not permitted to pick a random point on the procedure and join the procedure from that point, to fly that procedure correctly you'd need to go past SKBO to  AMVES, I'd say?

Thanks for answering..
I was investigating a little more and regarding your answer by AMVES I could not make the entry because it is class A airspace and what I found out is that it is forbidden to fly in that space VFR flights, so the correct entry would be among the mentioned points:

- BO481
- BO480
- BO479
- BO416
- BO415
