Militairy TACAN routes

[Marcel Ritzema]

Hi,

Must apologize i post this message in english and not in german, can
read german only am very poor in writing it.

Now some of you might have noticed that i can some other Dutch
pilots fly regularly militairy flights.

For this we sometimes use the militairy TACAN route system, it's
an aiway system just like the normal civil airways/routes.

You'll get routes in the FP like this:
EHV DCT MILGI TB6 BUE DCT EPINO

The tacan route in this example from EHEH to EDDF is "TB6"
which is pronounced as "TACAN BLUE SIX".

First T = TACAN
second is a colour, eg. B = BLUE, R = RED, G =Green

For a chart of the TACAN routes in Germany see:

For other charts the whole mil AIP of germany can be found at:
http://www.mil-aip.de

This all just to let you know a bit more about these route.

Remarks, questions? just let me know.

Would it make sense to move this thread to the "Military Ecke"?

Hello Marcel,

one thing I noticed. EPINO is not a vaild STAR-Entry for EDDF. I am not so familiar with military routes, but I think the route has to end at a STAR or Transition that is also used by the civil aircrafts. So I think the route example has to end at OSMAX. So I think the Route should like this
EHV DCT MILGI TB6 NOR DCT OSMAX

I think NOR will be the last point on the Route, because BUE is not on the TB6 and it also is more in the south than OSMAX , so you would fly first to the south and then back to the north.

EDIT: I just noticed the original posting is from 2003. So I think in 2003 the given route was valid but now it is not anymore.

EDIT2: Have moved this into the "Military Ecke"
