== Arrival Procedures ==
[[wikipedia:Istanbul_Sabiha_Gökçen_International_Airport|Sabiha Gokcen Airport]] is located within Yesilkoy TMA (Terminal Manoeuvring Area). Yesilkoy TMA covers [[Istanbul Airport|Istanbul Airport (LTFM)]], [[wikipedia:Istanbul_Sabiha_Gökçen_International_Airport|Sabiha Gokcen Airport (LTFJ)]], Ataturk Airport (LTBA), Samandira Airbase (LTBX), Corlu Ataturk Airport (LTBU), Hezarfen Municipal Airport (LTBW), Cengiz Topel Airport (LTBQ), Canakkale Airport (LTBH), Bursa Yunuseli Airport (LTBE) and Bursa Yenisehir Airport (LTBQ).
 
[[wikipedia:Istanbul_Sabiha_Gökçen_International_Airport|Sabiha Gokcen Airpor]] utilizes RNAV in all of its procedures. In addition, P-RNAV (''Precision-Area Navigation, RNP1'') capability is required. If unable, pilot '''must''' inform the controller so that aircraft can be given radar vectors to final. Arrival into [[wikipedia:Istanbul_Sabiha_Gökçen_International_Airport|Sabiha Gokcen Airport]] might seem complicated to some pilots however it is actually very simple. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Istanbul_Sabiha_G%C3%B6k%C3%A7en_International_Airport][https://wiki.trvacc.net/wiki/Istanbul_Airport#Terminal_Area (LTFJ)] STARs utilize [https://www.eurocontrol.int/concept/point-merge PMS (Point Merge System)] for efficient airspace control, separation, and to control traffic flow within Yesilkoy TMA. All STARs utilize idle descent philosophy until PMS entry. These [https://www.eurocontrol.int/concept/point-merge point merge systems] act as an arc of a circle and ease air traffic control.
 
STARs
 
The Stars at Gokcen are unlike LTFM, less complex but very useful. There are no IAF's at LTFJ. Pilot needs to follow the STAR and execute assigned ILS procedure at ASDEV (Runway 06) or BEMKA (Runway 24).

As [[wikipedia:Istanbul_Sabiha_Gökçen_International_Airport|Sabiha Gokcen Airport]] utilizes multiple configurations depending on traffic, weather, congestion, NOTAMs etc. You might be cleared to a different STAR compared to another traffic that is flying exactly the same route as you.
