Navigation setup
Use QNH. Tune IMS ILS/DME to 109.7 MHz, with a 160° inbound course and 3° glidepath. ML VOR is 114.1 MHz. This Z procedure uses IMS DME distances. For ILS, DME or GNSS is required. For the localizer-only approach, DME is required. The Y procedure uses ML DME and permits GNSS substitution with ML VOR as reference; do not transfer that localizer substitution rule to this procedure. The Category II/IIIb continuation has separate equipment, certification and minima requirements.Approach and descent
Enter at BELTA at or above 3,000 ft, 11.8 NM IMS DME / 11.6 NM from the threshold. Follow 160°. The glidepath passes AVMEL at 2,230 ft, 5.7 NM IMS DME / 5.5 NM from the threshold. Threshold elevation is 432 ft and reference datum height is 50 ft. For the localizer-only approach, retain these step-down minima:
The profile labels 7.7 NM IMS DME as 7.5 NM from the threshold. Do not substitute ML DME distances from the Y procedure.
Three-degree descent checks
Every distance in this table is to IMS DME.Holding and speeds
Hold at BELTA, inbound 160°, with left turns, one-minute legs, a minimum altitude of 4,000 ft and a 17 NM DME limit. The entry diagram labels 050°, 230° and 340°. Maximum indicated airspeed at BELTA is 185 kt. ATC approach-speed ranges are 160–185 kt at BELTA and 150–160 kt at 5 NM from the threshold. Aircraft may be radar-vectored to final approach, or join the procedure from a STAR before the final approach fix.Straight-in minima
These minima apply to categories A, B, C and D/Dₗ. Altitudes are feet above mean sea level. The ILS height is above the 432 ft threshold; the printed localizer height equals the altitude minus the 434 ft aerodrome elevation.
The chart prints special alternate minima of 700 ft / 2.5 km, explicitly not applicable to LOC/DME. The remaining applicability conditions are not defined on the sheet and remain to be added to this draft.
