John McPherson Posted November 23, 2015 at 01:58 PM Posted November 23, 2015 at 01:58 PM Enjoyed arriving in London last night flying Skyways 194 up from Nice for Flyuk. Great service from London Control and Heathrow Director...thanks guys. As a relative newcomer, where can I find out more about the likely routes from the Star ends to the IAF? Last night we left BIG on hdg 280, then got a big right turn onto 070, then 090 before a left onto 360 then 330 to intercept the localiser for 27L. Are there regular tracks you use, or is it all down to traffic or noise abatement? John McP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Hardcastle Posted November 23, 2015 at 02:03 PM Posted November 23, 2015 at 02:03 PM Hi John You can find the non-radar procedures here which are typically very similar to how the controller would vector you. 09L/R via BIG/OCK 09L/R via BNN/LAM 27L via BIG 27L/R via OCK 27L/R via BNN/LAM Over 150,000 flightplans in the Real World Flightplan Database Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John McPherson Posted November 23, 2015 at 10:23 PM Author Posted November 23, 2015 at 10:23 PM I have a subscription to Navigraph Charts Cloud, which is generally excellent...but it doesn't have these charts! I'll just have to download them from NATS-AIS and have them to hand. I [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ume I'm meant to fly these myself when EGLL is uncontrolled on VATSIM?

The Navigraph charts do have them, they're depicted on the ILS charts as opposed to having separate charts. If you don't fancy vectoring yourself these are good routes to fly in the absence of ATC, they are available as transitions in most FMCs.

John McPherson Posted November 25, 2015 at 04:23 PM Author Posted November 25, 2015 at 04:23 PM Thanks Arvid, I mainly fly the PMDG 737ng on FS9 so I'll explore the transitions in the FMC. Previously I've been vectoring myself asking tracks that I now see probably interfered with EGLC, for example. One of the things I enjoy most about online flying is that you never stop learning!
