G'day All,
A discussion began at work the other day regarding "Recommended Altitudes" as depicted on FAA terminal approach charts, and as defined in AIM.
Essentially I was wondering if anyone could provide an accurate definition and explain whether or not "Recommended Altitudes" provide sufficient terrain / obstacle separation.
Unfortunately AIM does not help, nor any other publication I can get my hands on.
Thanks in advance
