Arrival to TAXAT
RIVET Five is an RNP 1 arrival. Keep indicated airspeed at or below 250 kt from TAMMI, as well as the general 250 kt limit below 10,000 ft.
Distances are for each leg. The segment minimum altitude column reproduces the chart’s route altitude labels; waypoint crossing restrictions are listed separately.
Runway 07
From TAXAT, continue on track 049° and expect radar vectors to final.
Runways 16L, 16R and 25
From TAXAT, track 049° to BOOGI, a 6 NM leg with a 2,100 ft segment minimum altitude. Cross BOOGI at or above 6,000 ft. Continue on 049° to TESAT, a 10 NM leg with a 1,900 ft segment minimum altitude. Expect radar vectors to final.
Runways 34L and 34R
From NASHO, continue on track 155° and expect radar vectors to final.
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:
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.
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.
