This is a very complex and confusing situation needing careful attention and not helped by posters here who are not stating whether their figures are TERPS or PANSOPS. I am having difficulty finding references for TERPS approach categories - I have always assumed they are the same as PANSOPS which I believe are ICAO - 90/120/140/165. Can anyone confirm?
The main area of confusion for me is in circling - PANSOPS max speeds are clearly defined - 100/120/180/205. . I cannot find TERPS. Posters above (9.g + westhawk) are suggesting that TERPS max circling speeds are the same as the TERPS approach category speeds - is this correct?
FAA/ICAO links would be nice.
