Jan 1st: ILS-less challenge

Date : 1 Jan 2008
Time : 1200z - 1500z
Airport : VHHX (IGS 13) / VMMC (LLZ 16)
To meet and greet the year of 2008, Hong Kong VACC will present an international fly-in event. Macau International Airport (VMMC) and Kai Tak International Airport (VHHX) will be fully staffed. And as you can see in the title no ILS approaches are expected. You will recall the most famous and dangerous approach - IGS, when you are heading to Kai Tak.

You can also try out the Macau Runway 16 by LLZ approach with a deep left turn on short final. Before establishing on the localizer, metric altitudes will be provided because you will fly over Zhuhai - China Mainland airspace. Let's try out your skills and have fun with the IGS 13 and LLZ 16 approach.
