TUTORIAL #2
For Simulator Use Only DO NOT DUPLICATE 27FEB15 RTM
using HDG SEL mode.
Upon reaching the mouth of a small north-south valley directly ahead
(also collocated with the Innsbruck (INN) NDB), we’ll turn right downwind
on a 264 heading. At this point we are at 3700 feet MSL and we’re just a
few hundred feet above the terrain on the ridge below us. It is common
and normal to get EGPWS warnings on this part of the procedure due to
the abnormal proximity to the terrain compared to most standard
approaches. We’ll select landing flaps on this leg.
At 3.5 DME from OEV / 14.1 DME from OEJ (the missed approach
localizer), we’ll lower the HGS, disengage the autopilot and autothrottle
and begin a steep descending turn to the right toward the runway. This is
technically a right base leg, but you’ll be in the turn the entire way. Be
careful not to descend too far until you’ve cleared the edge of the ridge
we’re flying over!
You should see the runway as you roll out of the turn – if you did the turn
tight enough, you’ll be more or less aligned with the runway and will have
an easy manual landing. If you’ve overshot it by some, just turn back to
the right and line up. The HGS flight path vector can really help with this.
In the event we have to do a missed approach, we’ll perform a max
gradient climb while tracking the 067 degree course of the OEJ localizer,
which is located northeast of the airport. Passing over OEJ, we’ll continue
tracking the localizer’s 065 backcourse to 9500 feet, then turn direct RTT
and hold. (Note this procedure actually comes from the LOC/DME WEST
chart, which is not included here)
If you’re not there yet, wait until we’re about 10 miles or so from the Top
of Descent (T/D) point and then continue on. T/D should be located just
prior to the XERUM intersection fix.
