The Standard IAP
Instrument Approach Procedure (IAP)Allows to descend from enroute altitude to a point near runway where landing may be made visuallyComes in 3 types:Precision Approach
Approach with Vertical GuidanceNonprecision Approach

JIC 7-1Slide4
Precision Approach
Navigation system provides:Course Deviation Information (Lateral)Glide Path Deviation Information (Horizontal)Meets ICAO Annex 10 standards for Precision Approaches
Examples:Instrument Landing System (ILS)GPS Landing System (GLS)

JIC 7-2Slide5
Approach with Vertical Guidance (APV)
Doesn’t meet ICAO Annex 10 standardsNavigation system provides:Course Deviation Information (Lateral)Glide Path Deviation Information (Horizontal)Examples:

Approach Categories
Aircraft are placed in categories according to their approach speed (VREF)Aircraft without a VREF use the following formula:
1.3 x (VSO)These aircraft also have circling approach radii (distance to stay within airport)

The 100-foot Rule
If a pilot has the approach lighting system in sight (ALS) they may descend to 100 feet below minimums (or 100 foot below MDH) whichever is lessIf they continue below and do not make contact with the remainder of the runway environment, the pilot must execute a missed approach
