Blimey,it's only finding BPK, as navigational feats go it's not exactly the dark side of the moon.Given,the ATC technology I'm sure ATC are only too happy to oblige with vectors and I agree it's the sensible option.Surprisingly,there isn't an alternative 'when BPK is u/s' SID (as already mentioned there is an 'ASKEY' STAR ).I'm always amazed when even on a technical(and fairly mundane) topic the dramatic tension is raised-400 lives at stake,brilliant airmanship from the F50 crew etc.... cheers.
