Instrument flight procedure design is a complex
subject matter and if you combine it with the fact that
About Us you need to deal also with surveys, aeronautical
information management, charting, ATC and other
disciplines it can sometime become overwhelming.

Instrument
Flight Procedure
Design
Definition and Areas
where you can apply it
Definition
Instrument flight procedure design (IFPD) can be inferred from the

definition provided for Instrument flight procedure design service (IFPDS)
and we can say that IFPD is involved in the design, documentation,
validation, continuous maintenance and periodic review of instrument flight
procedures necessary for the safety, regularity and efficiency of air
navigation
Areas where IFPD can be used
 IFP Design
 5-Yearly reviews
 OLS review
 Feasibility Studies
Instrument approach procedure (IAP)
A series of predetermined maneuvers by reference to flight

instruments with specified protection from obstacles from
the initial approach fix, or where applicable, from the
beginning of a defined arrival route to a point from which a
landing can be completed and thereafter, if a landing is not
completed, to a position at which holding or en-route
obstacle clearance criteria apply.
Conventional vs
RNAV vs PBN
What is the difference?
Conventional Navigation
Area Navigation (RNAV)
Required Navigation Performance (RNP)
Basic PANS-
OPS Principles
Important
The design of procedures in accordance with PANS-OPS

criteria assumes normal operations.
It is the responsibility of the operator to provide

contingency procedures for abnormal and emergency
operations
Segments of Instrument Approach Procedures
Alignment
This is the angle we have in between

one segment and the next segment.
What we are looking for is that a
maximum angle of turn is never to
be exceeded and this will depend on
the type of procedure and in what
part of the procedure the aircraft is
Length
Each track that we design has a

distance between the start and
the end points.
The length needs to

accommodate any descent that
we require, and it is influenced
by the gradient if its is
acceptable or not and in PBN
the minimum stabilization
distance is also a factor
Gradient
The change in altitude divided by

the overall length or the rise over
run is one of those criteria that will
make us iterate over the length
specially in challenging terrain
Area
Area
Minimum Obstacle Clearance (MOC)
The MOC is the minimum obstacle clearance will provide the vertical
distance that we need to apply that will allow to fly the aircraft safely over
terrain or obstacles.
There are different variables that were factored in when determining the
values that are applicable that included the terrain, aircraft characteristics
and pilot ability, so the values that are mentions in PANS OPS are to be
considered the minimum which included also considerations for
communications (COM) and aerodromes and ground aids (AGA) so they
can't be reduced further in a safe way.
In the primary areas the full MOC is
to be applied while in the secondary
areas we will reduce this value linearly
from 100% at the edge of the primary
area to 0% at the outer edge of the
secondary area, always considering
perpendicular to the nominal track.
Sample MOC applied per segment
Initial 300m
Intermediate 150m
NPA Final Approach 75m (with FAF) / 90m (without a FAF)
Missed Approach
- Initial Phase Same as Final Approach*
- Intermediate Phase 30m
- Final Phase 50m
* There is an exception if the extension of the intermediate missed approach surface

backwards requires less clearance
Mountainous
Area
What is it?
How do we calculate it?
What do we have to do in mountainous areas?
In mountainous areas due to the nature of the terrain there are

considerations like altimeter error and pilot control issues due to bad
weather (winds over 20KTS) that will require the increase of the MOC by as
much as 100%
Mountainous Terrain
What exactly are mountainous areas?
Mountainous area
An area of changing terrain profile where the changes of terrain elevation
exceed 900 m (3 000 ft) within a distance of 18.5 km (10.0 NM).
The increased used and areas of applicability is to be published in the
