The Pittsburgh area is served by four arrivals, all of which are simple pilot-nav STARs that can be flown with nothing more than the dual-VOR receivers required to fly IFR. A link to all STARs are below. CUTTA TWO "Cut-ah" for arrivals from the northwest. Note the BSV transition is for use at or below 8000' only. http://www.myairplane.com/databases/approach/pdfs/00570CUTTA.PDF GRACE TWO "Grace" for arrivals from the northeast. http://www.myairplane.com/databases/approach/pdfs/00570GRACE.PDF NESTO TWO "Ness-Toe" for arrivals from the southeast. http://www.myairplane.com/databases/approach/pdfs/00570NESTO.PDF WISKE TWO "Whisky" for arrivals from the southwest. Note that the CKB transition is NOT to be filed. http://www.myairplane.com/databases/approach/pdfs/00570WISKE.PDF Pilots should expect visual approaches if the weather accomodates. Make sure you grab the ATIS off of the _TWR controller before you check in with your first APP or DEP controller. Inform PIT_APP or PIT_DEP that you do have the appropriate information code. All charts for KPIT including instrument approach charts can be found here All charts for KAGC including instrument approach charts can be found here Departing from KPIT: All aircraft should file a route which starts with a fix depicted on the Pittsburgh 7 departure chart. Pilots need not put PIT7 in the route section. The chart is available at: http://www.myairplane.com/databases/approach/pdfs/00570PITTSBURGH.PDF Pilots will be [Mod - Happy Thoughts]igned a departure heading to fly after completing the obstacle avoidance portion of the DP (climb on charted heading until p[Mod - Happy Thoughts]ing 1700' then fly the [Mod - Happy Thoughts]igned heading). Departing from KAGC: All aircraft should file a route which starts with a fix depicted on the Allegheny 4 departure chart. The chart is available at: http://www.myairplane.com/databases/approach/pdfs/00326ALLEGHENY.PDF Pilots will be [Mod - Happy Thoughts]igned a departure heading to fly after completing the obstacle avoidance portion of the DP (climb on charted heading until p[Mod - Happy Thoughts]ing 1700' then fly the [Mod - Happy Thoughts]igned heading). If you have any questions, ask a controller! We would prefer you ask over the text channel or over voice (if there's enough space on the channel) rather than through private messages. We're more than happy to help! Thank you for taking the time to read this. We hope to see you in the Pittsburgh area this Friday evening. Lee Waldeck XXX CTR: Are you equipped for the XXXX arrival? NWA DC9: Negative, we are equipped for radar vectors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
