T-6B PRIMARY INSTRUMENT NAVIGATION CHAPTER EIGHT<br />
RNAV minima are dependent on navigational equipment capability, as stated in the applicable<br />
NATOPS <strong>Flight</strong> Manual.<br />
NOTE<br />
The T-6B is certified to fly RNAV GPS approaches to LNAV<br />
MDA minimums.<br />
Figure 8-6b IFR RNAV Landing Minima<br />
Aircraft Approach Category – a grouping of aircraft based on an approach<br />
speed of 1.3 times the stall speed in the landing configuration at maximum gross<br />
weight. Each category provides 300’ of obstacle clearance at MDA within the<br />
circling radius.<br />
NOTES<br />
1. The T–6B is an Approach Category B aircraft based on<br />
approach speed of 91 to < 121 KIAS.<br />
2. If flying faster approach speeds, you can always go up a<br />
category, but never down.<br />
812. AERODOME SKETCH<br />
The aerodrome sketch is provided on each approach plate in the left–hand corner. It shows the<br />
runways, taxiways, airport lighting, control tower, vertical obstructions, and the field elevation.<br />
All elevations are in feet above Mean Sea Level (MSL).<br />
Note the timing “FAF to MAP” information at the bottom of the aerodrome sketch. This table is<br />
used to determine the timing from the FAF to the MAP, at various ground speeds. For example,<br />
with an approach speed of 120 KIAS and 10 knots of headwind, groundspeed becomes 110<br />
knots.<br />
The timing in this case must be interpolated: 110 knots = 2 min 20 seconds.<br />
