Figure 5-124 Descending Turn to the Initial Approach Fix (IAF)

23)

After crossing FALUR the next waypoint is the FAF. The flight phase changes to LPV on the HSI indicating the

current phase of flight is in Approach Mode and the approach type is LPV. CDI scaling changes accordingly and is
used much like a localizer when flying an ILS approach. The RVSI is no longer displayed and the VDI changes to
the Glidepath Indicator (as shown in Figure 5-125) when the final approach course becomes active.

Figure 5-125 Descending to the FAF

The descent continues through the FAF (CEGIX) using the Glidepath Indicator, as one would use a glideslope
indicator, to obtain an altitude “AT” 7,800 feet at the FAF. Note the altitude restriction lines over and under
(‘At’) the altitude in the ‘ALT’ field in Figure 5-125.

24)

After crossing CEGIX, the aircraft continues following the glidepath to maintain the descent to “AT or ABOVE”

6,370 feet at the Missed Approach Point (MAP) (RW35R) as seen in Figure 5-126.
