Further to my previous post on SIDS and STARS, I have tried to use JDs suggestion of leaving RC when contacted by Approach. Unfortunately I am still having to leave RC much earlier than this due to altitude restrictions on the approach phase of the STAR. I wonder if this problem can be looked at in the future version.

you should probably write doug about this. the way we're doing it is by the book, at least that is what he tells me ;-) remember, stars end at approach.jd
