CAP Question

Post by Condorito »

Hello

In reference to the RNAV (GNSS) RWY 08 at CYKF, does anyone know why they publish the numbers in brackets (Minima Box) with respect to Height Above Threshold, instead of Height Above TDZE? Makes a difference of a few feet, just wondering the reason.

Thanks for your input

I'm just speculating, but maybe it's because the threshold corresponds with the MAP? So it's actually the alt AGL at the MAP.

Just a guess, though...

The CAP legend MINIMA says that for ILS, LOC, NDB it would be item 6 (DH) or item 10 (HATZ) while for LPV, LNAV/VNAV, LNAV it is item 15 (DH or HAT). i.e. the book says so.
