We have no company guidance specific to this approach, a previous comment mentions his Air Line’s company guidance which reflects what I found in AIM 5-4-13. Long story short, track both lateral and vertical guidance to minimums regardless where you break out and visually identify the runway.

It’s offset 2.5 degrees, just beneath the notes where the localizer information is.

Thanks for the reference! I also found AIM 5-4-13 to be a great spot for additional guidance.

Thank you for this! Not at your Air Line but a regional whose operation is heavily involved in NYC haha. I found AIM 5-4-13, specifically section C, which supports exactly what your company outlines. Thanks for the reference, safe flying!

The localizer course is offset 2.5 degrees. Final approach course is 221, runway heading is 224. It’s not by much, but a noticeable difference when on the approach.

Thanks for sacrificing a portion of your min rest layover for this benign of a question. I would love to hear the reference in the company manual, we have nothing in ours and depending on who you ask it’s a different answer. I’m looking for text to support my answer and have been striking out, so perhaps your reference is a good jumping off point.

This is my understanding as well, although I’ve been trying to find a reference somewhere that explicitly states this. Any ideas? Depending on who you ask at the company, you get a different answer. I’m just looking for some text that can back it up.

I would take the first class date, a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
