Star Egll

Hello,

Long time since I've been to London Heathrow...
I was reviewing the STARs procedure on Jeppesen charts and I see bold lines above/below altitudes.
I went to the Jep intro but I didn't find any explanation on those.
It certainly is a meaning of the condition on the altitude constraint (at or above/below/at etc...) but I can't find the precise meaning.

Help would be much appreciated ! If you could as well point me to the good reference to find adequate definitions/legend, that would be perfect.

Thank you much.

Thank you, that's precisely what I was looking for !
Dated 2007, strange that it still does not appear in the Intro of Jep...

Thank you !

Don't forget Jeppesen are only a supplier of information, and are not regulated by any aviation authority - this in the past has been a major concern of the UK Flight Safety Committee.
If you want definitive information on Heathrow STARs, I suggest you look at the UK AIP.

Thank you for pointing this.
Indeed, I have witnessed several discrepancies already through the years.
