VTJS17_Fire Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Hi, currently we discuss VFR procedures at KLSV in our squadron. Until now, I didn't found any VFR departure/approach procedure/chart for this airbase. At airnav.com were only IFR charts. I checked today and found the "Sin City Visual" approach chart. This chart must be new, I didn't saw it before there. Are there VFR departue charts out there, as well? Or to those, who are at Nellis from the community: Do they (fighters) fly VFR at Nellis in real life? Thanks in advance. :) Hardware: Intel i5 4670K | Zalman NPS9900MAX | GeIL 16GB @1333MHz | Asrock Z97 Pro4 | Sapphire Radeon R9 380X Nitro | Samsung SSDs 840 series 120GB & 250 GB | Samsung HD204UI 2TB | be quiet!

aaron886 Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 (edited) The military flies IFR to the maximum extent practicable. This Charted Visual Flight Procedure requires VFR category weather, but it's still an "IFR procedure." Edited June 25, 2017 by aaron886 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Home Fries Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 (edited) In the US Navy, there are visual approaches to the airfields, but rather than being published approaches they are known as "course rules" and are generally memorized or referenced on quick cards. They involve hitting specific points (usually visual landmarks, but sometimes Radial/DME), then entering the pattern for the break (what the Air Force calls the overhead). Course rules are for entry into the VFR pattern, and are therefore only flown in VMC. I imagine the AF does things similarly, though every approach I've done to an AFB has been ILS or PAR.
