YSSY - ILS Z or ILS Y PRM 16R?
All….
Scratching my head on this one:
We were cleared the ILS 16R PRM into YSSY recently. There are two approaches into 16R using PRM…. a Z and Y.
We asked which one they'd like us to use and they again stated, "ILS PRM 16R". Asked yet again since we could not determine if they wanted us to use the Z or Y procedure. We were told to standby. Then told it would be ILS PRM Z 16R.
I do know the "Z" is always the preferred approach but my question to you all is….
In the absence of a designator such as Y or Z for an approach, are we to fly the "Z" procedure? And if so, would anyone have a reference for this somewhere?
Thanks
