What altitude (feet) did the aircraft pass over PMDThe first officer stated that after the flight crossed the PMD very high frequencyomni-directional radio range (VOR) navigation transmitter at 8,000 feet, heobtained information Oscar from the BUR airport terminal information service(ATIS), which indicated that winds were from 260° at 18 knots, gusting to 26knots, and that aircraft were landing on runways 33 and 26.

7. When the aircraft passed over PMD, what runway(s) was in use at BUR?8. What runway did the Captain show preference towards? Why? What were therisks of his choice of runway?At 1802:52, the flight crew was advised by the Southern California terminal radarapproach control (SCT) Woodland controller that the current ATIS wasinformation Papa and that they should expect an instrument landing system (ILS)landing on runway 8. At 1803:29, when the airplane was about 20 nautical miles(nm) north of the BUDDE outer marker3 at an altitude of about 8,000 feet meansea level (msl), the Woodland controller instructed flight 1455 to turn left to aheading of 190° and to descend to and maintain 6,000 feet msl. The first officeracknowledged the instructions.9. Locate the BUDDE outer-marker on the Runway 8 Approach Chart. How is thefix defined (i.e. what VOR rdial, what DME distance)?10. When the aircraft was approx 20 nm from BUDDE, what runway(s) was in use atBUR?Copyright Lance Sherry 200925
