identify FORRS (D13.0), CERAB (D18.0), and the
missed approach point (D23.0).
DME Arc Example
The following example uses Baltimore’s VOR DME
15 to demonstrate the approach to Martin State
Airport. The approach uses a 14.7 DME clockwise arc
to guide the aircraft to Runway 15.
1. Before reaching SLOAF, tune the Nav receiver to
the Baltimore VOR. Intercept and follow
Baltimore’s 334° radial (154° bearing) until you
reach SLOAF.
2. In your Apollo GPS, select the BAL VOR as the
destination waypoint.
3. Prior to SLOAF, start a turn to approximately 064º
to intercept the published arc.
4. On the Apollo GPS, read the bearing to the BAL
VOR. Adjust the aircraft’s bearing so the right wing
aligns with the bearing to the VOR. In other words,
9-74
