1.0) KPIT Standard Terminal Arrival Procedures (STARs)
1.0a) There are four Terminal Arrival Procedures for
KPIT.
1.0c) If there is no Arrival Controller (APP/CTR)
online, pilots will need to navigate on their own; Tower cannot provide any services
before aircraft turn to final.
1.0d) There are four STARs
for KPIT, each one having slightly different routes toward KPIT:
CUTTA2 – Northwest/West
WISKE2 – Southwest/South
NESTO2 – Southeast/South
GRACE2 – Northeast/East
1.0e) You should check the chart for each STAR to get
the routings for it. If you cannot
find the chart for any reason, simply use one of those four fixes as your
final waypoint: CUTTA, GRACE, NESTO, WISKE.

1.1) Altitudes
1.1a) NESTO and WISKE: Jet arrivals should cross at
