ifr proceduresFAA-published sample question (IRA, Aug 2021)
If the plan view on an approach chart does not include a procedure turn barb, that means
A
a procedure turn is not authorized.✓ Correct Answer
B
you should fly a teardrop entry.
C
a racetrack-type turn is required.
Explanation
AIM 5-4-9 states that the absence of the procedure turn barb in the plan view indicates that a procedure turn is not authorized for that procedure. A teardrop or racetrack course reversal is flown only where it is charted (for example a hold in lieu of a procedure turn), not inferred from a missing barb.
