Q2. i searched the FAA website and found that some changes had been made for the criterias of circling approach, such as radii. According to the FAA doc 8260.3B CHG 21, since last june, FAA finally started to correct the original flow on its circling criterias. Now the radii (Obstacle Evaluation Area (OEA))will be changed with airport elevation/temp change. i don't know if my understanding is correct or not? if i'm right, now the radii is a variant, is that true? anybody can give me a confirmation?
so Q2 is any jeppesen charts changed for this reason? or any plan to change?
any website i can learn from?
According to the
Status Report from the
FAA Aeronautical Charting Forum, the revisions to circling minima in TERPS Change 21 have not been implemented. And the methods for depiction of actual Circling Area Radii (CAR) on charts are still under study/coordination.
