We continue flying that heading until we are about 50 nm from the VOR.
Then again we switch the autopilot toNAVmode.
Approximately 33 nm away from theVLMVOR we are given instructions for the approach.
We choose our assigned approach and turn right to heading 305.
After a while we are instructed to descend to 4000 feet.
We set the autopilotALTto 4000, making no changes to the vertical speed.
During the descent we have to remember about thrust reduction to avoid too high speed.
In the meantime we can have look at the airport chart.
The ILS frequency for runway 31 is 109.500 and the runway heading is 305 degrees.
Soon we receive an instruction to change frequency to 124.675 and contact Kbely Approach.
The new station redirects us to heading 215.
Now we have to contact Ruzyne Tower on frequency119.700.
Note, that approach permissiondoes not meanlanding permission!
As we can see on the picture above, the course arrow sections do not form a solid line.
We should keep flying at heading 275 to make the course arrow solid.
The glidepath can be compared to an incline that leads the aircraft toward the runway threshold.
While descending we should reduce thrust to maintain speed of 120 knots.
