# MEPIL Four arrival

> MEPIL Four arrival.

## SANAD transition

MEPIL Four is an **RNP 1 arrival**. If cleared via the SANAD transition, follow this route to MEPIL.

Distances are for each leg. The segment minimum altitude column reproduces the chart’s route altitude labels; waypoint crossing restrictions are listed separately.

| From | Instruction | To | Distance | Segment minimum altitude |
| - | - | - | - | - |
| SANAD | Track 174° | OLTIN | 70 NM | 6,000 ft |
| OLTIN | Turn left, track 170° | YAKKA | 38 NM | 3,500 ft |
| YAKKA | Track 170° | MEPIL | 13 NM | 2,600 ft |

Cross **MEPIL at or above 8,000 ft**. The diagram depicts a hold at MEPIL with inbound track **170°** and right turns; it does not print a leg time.

## From MEPIL towards final

| From | Track | To | Distance | Segment minimum altitude | Crossing restriction |
| - | - | - | - | - | - |
| MEPIL | 170° | LANOL | 12 NM | 2,300 ft | At or below 7,000 ft |
| LANOL | 170° | TESAT | 20 NM | 2,100 ft | — |

Expect radar vectors to the final approach course **after LANOL**.

## Approach speeds

Keep indicated airspeed at or below **250 kt below 10,000 ft**, as well as any tighter limit stated on the route. The chart lists these ATC approach speed ranges:

| Distance from touchdown | Indicated airspeed |
| - | - |
| 10 NM | 160–185 kt |
| 5 NM | 150–160 kt |

## Radio failure in instrument conditions

If able, contact Sydney approach on **+61 2 9556 6515**. Set transponder code **7600**. Comply with the vertical-navigation requirements, but **do not descend below the minimum sector altitude**. Follow the latest arrival clearance to the nominated runway, then fly the most suitable approach.

## Frequencies

All radio frequencies are MHz.

| Service | Frequency |
| - | - |
| ATIS | 118.55 |
| Approach | 124.4 |
| Director east | 125.3 |
| Director west | 126.1 |
| Tower: runways 16R/34L and 07/25 | 120.5 |
| Tower: runway 16L/34R | 124.7 |
| Surface movement east of runway 16R/34L | 121.7 |
| Surface movement west of runway 16R/34L | 126.5 |

## Sector altitudes and chart conventions

The **25 NM minimum sector altitude is 2,700 ft**, centred on the **YSSY aerodrome reference point**. The **10 NM minimum sector altitude is 2,100 ft**. Bearings are magnetic, with **13° east** variation. Altitudes are feet above mean sea level unless a flight level is stated. These route diagrams are **not to scale**.
