Hey guys...
Thanks for all the great responses! I'm chomping at the bit to get back out there and try this approach clean instead of configured. I may have been beaten once but I shall prevail in the end!
Pilot141...this is all from memory but the way we read it, you have to be at or below 8,000 ft by the time you are established on the arc. The profile is confusing but there was some discussion on it in the cockpit well before the approach and we all agreed on this. Which brings me to the next question...why the heck is the 8,000 ft restriction there in the first place??? It seems to serve no purpose. Perhaps some terps guy getting his kicks!
