  • Standard Terminal Arrival Routes (STAR) control the flow of inbound traffic into busy airports. When you're cleared to "descend via" a STAR, you'll need to be aware of exactly what's expected of you.
    We'll examine these STAR procedures in detail, and the various ways ATC will instruct us to perform them.

    Just to express how amazing this guy is as a teacher, I have yet to attend a SINGLE ground school class and have no formal/informal training with simulators and not only understood the entire video but even learnt what the jargon I usually hear pilots saying in videos when requesting landing descent & clearance AND the maps. Feel like I'm unlocking a whole new world 😅!The first thing I'll do when I start my classes is join your course. You're amazing! 👏👏👏

    Great video.
    One note: ATC will expect you to maintain the last speed restriction on the arrival until the next reduction described on the chart (250@10 notwithstanding). Increasing speed after complying with the 280 knots at the prescribed fix in this example would not be anticipated or appreciated by ATC. Mostly a turbojet issue but If you need to speed up to get down, communicate that with the controller.
    Keep up the great content!

    Excellent explanation! I'm not a real life pilot nor am I training to be but I've recently been enjoying flight simulators and aim to join the vatsim network and fly as realistically as possible following real life procedures. I've been studying charts using navigraph and trying to learn the lingo. I like the way you broke down each segment of the ATC responses/instructions and clearly explained them. Most other videos I have watched brush over this when explaining charts and leave many unanswered questions.
    I think I may actually get it now haha! A few weeks practicing these procedures and I'll be on vatsim in no time ;)
    Would love to see a video on fuel and how to calculate how much fuel is required based on your overall weight, distance and alternatives. I've tried doing this with the C172 Skyhawk but I also run software that allows you to take cargo jobs within the sim and because the aircraft has had the seats removed for cargo the weight etc doesn't align with the actual manufacturers performance data. Would be good to see an explanation of zero fuel weight, usable fuel weight and all the other weight specifications :)

  • @user-wl6bw3jl4n
    @user-wl6bw3jl4n Před rokem

    Thank you for your concise explanation. I have a question regarding being “descend via”. In your example using the MADEE FOUR arrival, lets say ATC clears you to descend via, and you set 2000 for YAANO. After crossing say waypoint EVRTT, ATC says, “Due to conflicting traffic turn left heading 290, once c;ear of the traffic I’ll turn you back to resume the STAR”. What altitude do you descend to now? From a safety perspective, I would think to change the 2000 set in the altitude window to 14,000 and remain and remain at 14,000 till re-established on the published track before descending further. Is that correct? Can you kindly direct me to a source where I could find the proper procedure, please? Thanks in advance.

    • @SpicyFaceActual
      @SpicyFaceActual Před rokem

      If ATC takes you off the STAR, they are required to give you an altitude to maintain. Decent via is cancelled.

    When flying a star and ATC gives you a descent clearance lower than the next segment altitude restriction, how do we comply with this?

  • @ecl5
    @ecl5 Před 4 měsíci

    The last published speed on a STAR will be maintained by the aircraft until ATC deletes it, assigns a new speed, issues a vector, assigns a direct route or issues an approach clearance.

  • @comcfi
    @comcfi Před 3 měsíci

    You can’t speed back up once the star slows you. Maintain last assigned airspeed until slowed by ATC, the star, or you go below 10,000.
    Also, it is very common to slow down while descending.

  • @marcdulude587
    @marcdulude587 Před rokem

    Great stuff but I have a question about a real life situation. I'll apply the question to the Bellingham example just to make it simple. Imagine your original clearance was to the airport with a Descend Via, landing North instruction. There is a tremendous amount of radio traffic (like you might get going into KLAX) and, when you get to TUBTY, you have still not received an approach clearance. Your radio has not failed, it's just that the controller has apparently been too busy with all the traffic he's handling. You're doing 210 KIAS and are at 3500' and you're crossing TUBTY. Now what do you do next?

      @alanmeadows9703 Před 27 dny +1

      A TAA is. Designated wedge of airspace you can maneuver in to get conveniently aligned for an RNAV approach. Its small. A STAR is meant to give a routine way for jets to get from the en route structure (think airliner cruising altitudes) to the instrument approach procedure. STARs are hence usually into large cities with large commercial airports and often start a hundred miles away.

    • @flightinsight9111
      @flightinsight9111  Před 2 lety +2

      They are, and you can, up to an extent. Even in the sim though I think you'd have a tough time making a a speed restriction if you had to drop 10 000 feet in 15 miles. Maybe a clearer way of saying this would have been, you can't give up airspeed without holding onto more altitude, or vise versa. Hope that makes sense!
