This page gives the ILS CAT I and localizer-only approach. The second chart gives the special-authorisation ILS CAT I and CAT II minima. This is the fixed 3 September 2026 publication cycle, individual revision 19 March 2026, chart SCBII01-186. The published track is 348° magnetic, with a 3° glidepath. Use QNH; elevations are feet AMSL. Aerodrome elevation is 1,887 ft, runway 35 threshold elevation is 1,869 ft, reference datum height is 50 ft, and magnetic variation is 12° E. Use ICB DME for the Z approach profile. The approach arcs are referenced to CB DME. The Y approach uses CB DME in its profile, so its distances cannot be substituted for these Z approach distances.

Radio and navigation setup

DME or GNSS is required for ILS; DME is required for LOC-only.

Approach profile

MENZI is shown at 5,400 ft. Localizer profile altitudes are 5,100 ft at KATIA (11.1 ICB) and at 10.2 ICB; 4,600 ft at MOMBI (9.1 ICB); 3,800 ft at 6.1 ICB; 3,400 ft at 5 ICB; and 3,100 ft at DAMKO (4 ICB). The localizer MAPt is 1 NM ICB DME, 0.9 NM before threshold 35. The profile’s 10.2, 6.1 and 5 NM ICB points correspond to 10, 5.9 and 4.8 NM to the threshold.

3° approach-path altitude checks

Holding at MOMBI

Hold right-hand on inbound track 348°. At 5,100 ft, maximum IAS is 170 kt and the limiting distance is 12 NM ICB DME; that row gives no holding time. At 5,600 ft, maximum IAS is 210 kt with a 1-minute time; that row gives no DME limit. The plan shows holding-sector boundaries of 098°, 168° and 278°. Aircraft holding at MOMBI may begin descent once established inbound on the approach. The chart depicts the southern AVBEG/POLLI and BUNGO/LEECE arrival entries, CB radial 143° and lead radial 159°, a 13 NM CB DME arc at 6,000 ft, and an inner arc at 5,100 ft. Follow the selected arrival and clearance to join the approach.

Missed approach

Track 348°. Climb to 5,100 ft, or as directed by ATC. Apply the gradient associated with the selected minima to 3,200 ft, then 2.5%.

Minima

The straight-in minima apply to categories A–D. Visibility is in kilometres; RVR is in metres. Parentheses contain height above the runway threshold for straight-in minima and the chart’s published height/visibility notation for circling and alternate minima. No circling beyond 4 NM west of runway 17/35. The chart also directs readers to the special notices for its use of colour.

Terrain, airspace and minimum sector altitudes

The 10 NM MSA is 5,100 ft, referenced to CB VOR or NDB. The 25 NM MSA diagram divides the surrounding area at CB radials 305°, 070° and 255°: 4,600 ft in the northern/eastern sector from 305° clockwise to 070°, 7,500 ft from 070° clockwise to 255°, and 5,900 ft from 255° clockwise to 305°. The plan view marks R450A with upper limit 3,500 ft and lower limit SFC, R450B 4,500/3,500 ft, R450C 8,000/4,500 ft. Their boundaries and the surrounding terrain still require a complete text description. These airspace labels do not provide clearance to enter them. The charted spot elevations include 2,226, 2,241, 2,289, 2,425, 2,506, 2,565, 2,604, 2,641, 2,667, 2,810, 2,839, 2,880, 2,944, 3,020, 3,245, 3,311, 3,344, 3,543 and 3,671 ft. Use the procedure altitudes and restrictions; a list of spot elevations is not terrain clearance. Source: © Airservices Australia, Departure and Approach Procedures, SCBII01-186.
