ATSB : Distance references on charts
inadequate:
Airservices response:
" All Australian DAP RNAV (GNSS) instrument approach charts produced by Airservices Australia have distance to the MAPt reference from the Initial Approach Fix (IAF) to the MAPt below the profile view of the procedure."
Who cares what you scribble on the bottom of the chart? The most important thing missing in these approaches is a distance-to-run, an altitude you should be at (at that distance) and a display of that in front of the flying pilot.
Another issue I noticed the other day...certain scales allow the last letter of the waypoints to get "chopped off". I got an approach with a whole bunch of " BLTW.. BLTW.. BLTW..BLTW.."
Where are we now? errr
