This Presentation Is To Discuss:
3
What Is A Circling Approach?
• It is a visual flight manoeuvre
• Or an extension of an instrument approach
Basic Assumptions:• Visual with landing runway or approach aids
• At or above MDA unless in a position to land
• If visual is lost, a go-around must be executed
• A climbing turn towards the runway, and to establish on published missed approach track
4
When To Do A Circling Approach
• No precision approach aid available
• Unable to design a non-precision approach due to certain constraints:a. Navigational facility out of design tolerance
b. Unable to make a normal descent rate landing due to terrain constraints
c. The only available mean to make a landing on a particular runway
5
Visual Manoeuvring Area
The visual manoeuvring area is determined by drawing arcs (Ř) centred on each runway threshold and joining those arcs with tangent lines
6
Visual Manoeuvring (Circling Approach) Area
Ř = 2 (r) + straight segmente.g. Cat D Airplane: Ř = 2.34+2.34+0.60 = 5.28nm
Where (r) is the airplane’s turn radius (242kt TAS & 20º AOB)
7
Design Criteria (ICAO Pans Ops)
• Aircraft Category (Cat C or Cat D)
• Aircraft Manoeuvre Speed
• Wind Velocity – 25kt throughout the turn
• Bank Angle – Rate 1 Turn or 20º whichever is less
• Airport Elevation – 2000ft amsl
• ISA + 15°

Visual Manoeuvring (Circling) Area Not Considered For Obstacle Clearance
It is permissible to eliminate from consideration a particular sector where a prominent obstacle exists in the manoeuvring (circling) area outside the final approach and missed approach area (Known as the prohibited area)

The Mathematics Behind
• At Speed 210kt = 3.5nm per minute• Rate 1 turn = 180º per minute• 45º turn will take 15 second to complete• 15+30+15 seconds = 1 min
At 210kt: S = Sine 45º x 3.5 = 0.707 x 3.5 = 2.47nm
• At Speed 180kt = 3nm per minute
At 180kt: S = Sine 45º x 3.0 = 0.707 x 3.0 = 2.12nm
16
B747-400 Gear Down Flaps 30 - 150Kt IAS(Groundspeed 165Kt Maximum)
• S = 1.76nm (150kt Groundspeed) or • S = 1.94nm (165kt Groundspeed)
17
Approximate Rate Of Descent From MDA To Touch Down
• At 700ft a.a.l. -------- 300-400fpm
• At 1000ft a.a.l. -------- 500-600fpm
• At 1200ft a.a.l. -------- 600-700fpm
CAUTION! Wings Must Be Level By 300ft a.a.l.

How To Determine Fac & Radius Of Turn
1. Acceleration towards the centre of the turn (ac) = V2/r
2. W = mg or m = W/g
3. Fac = mV2/r = W.V2/gr = W.tan(b)
19
Determining Radius Of Turn
Approach speed = 150 knots (TAS)
r = (150 x 0.514)2 / 9.81 x tan 20º
= 5944 m/s / 9.81 x 0.364 m/s2
= 5944 m/s / 3.57 m/s2
= 1665 m = 1.665 km
= 1.665 km / 1.854 km
= 0.9 nm r = 0.8 nm if AOB = 22.5º
20
Determine The AOB Of Rate 1 Turn
V = TAS (m/s)
g = 9.81 m/s2
tan(b) = AOB
r = radius of turn (m)
t = s/°.
If the amount of time it takes to fly a 360° circle is 360t; then t will represent the time it takes to turn 1°
21
To Determine Angle Of Bank Of Rate 1 Turn Using A Simple Rule Of Thumb

Bank Using Rule of Thumb
50 7.8º 12º
100 15.5º 17º
150 22.5º 22º
180 26.5º 25º
260 35.7º 33º
320 41.5º 39º
475 52.7º 55º
22
Forget About The Mathematics
• Just Set ND to 5nm Scale
• Ensure Airplane Symbol Stays Within
2nm From Runway
• Fly No Lower Than MDA
• No Faster Than Approach Speed
• You will be safe from obstacles in
the manoeuvring area
--- Rule Of Thumb ---

Various Visual Entries
24
Missed Approach Go-Around
IMPORTANT!
If lost visual during circling, it is imperative that the pilot flying must initiate a climbing turn towards the
runway until established on the published missed approach track
25
Should a go-around be necessary after breakoff from the instrument approach, the missed approach procedure associated with that instrument approach should be used.
