Here there is an approximation of a real air route between Barcelona (El Prat airport
LEBL) and Paris (Orly airport LFPO) using different charts, route calculators and
AIPs. The virtual route obtained by Route Finder (route calculator) has been compared
with en-route charts and even real paths followed by flights LEBL-LFPO:
Real route followed by Vueling flight (VY8010) from Barcelona to Paris Orly.
If we see the representation of our virtual route (which includes SID, STAR and IAC
waypoints) in Google Earth (Drawn in Google Maps to improve aspect see in the enroute part) is easy to observe that it matches the path of the real flight, although we
must recall that there are shortest routes (we can find them in the en-route charts), but
for different reasons, they dont allow this flight.
Now we find the description in detail of the different stages of the flight:
DEPARTURE (SID)
Take off takes part by runway 25L (diurnal). The selection of this runway has not been
arbitrary, as aerodrome information has been consulted in the ENAIRE AIP:
intercept magnetic route 287 NDB VNV (Non Directional Beacon in Villanueva) and
continues climbing to get to NDB VNV at 5000 ft or above. Turns right (and climbs) to
follow magnetic route 353 NDB VNV to cross KARDO at FL120 or above and
continues at 353 to OKABI. There is a 5% minimum climbing gradient until 8.0 DME
PRA.
correct it). Need of anemometer (speed), turn coordinator (roll and yaw), tachometer
(engine power) and variometer (vertical speed)
Turning right (while climbing) to intercept the magnetic route 287 NDB VNV (read
ADF, which indicates the angle between the plane and the NDB and correct course)
and follow it until reaching NDB VNV at 5000 ft or above. Turn coordinator,
variometer, tachometer and anemometer.
Turning right (while climbing) to follow the magnetic route 353 NDB VNV (read
ADF, which indicates the angle between the plane and the NDB an correct course) and
follow it until reaching KARDO at FL120 or above. Turn coordinator, variometer,
tachometer and anemometer.
Continue climbing at 353 direct to OKABI. Variometer
SID manoeuvers
Speed and roll angles for the first turn to the left are given in the chart:
EN-ROUTE STAGE
After OKABI, route R861 is followed until reaching Upper Airspace. Then UN861 is the
route, which is followed towards TOU and FISTO.
UT210 from PERIG to TUDRA, passing through DIBAG, and UT158 from TUDRA to
AMBOISE (last waypoint en-route), passing through BEVOL.
The plot in Google Maps allows us to see the matching with VY8010 flight track:
World UIRs
As we have mentioned, the departure waypoint of the origin TMA is OKABI and the
first of the destination TMA is AMBOISE.
FIRs (Flight Information Regions) crossed are:
FIR BARCELONA, BORDEAUX (LFBB) and PARIS (LFFF).

APPROACH (IAC)
Once the pilot is given clearance from LFPO ATC after IAF, the initial approach starts:
The initial approach chart which is provided to approach from ODILO gives the
procedure to descend until intercepting ILS of runway 06 using GNSS and DME
(which provides position by satellite and distance by DME)
With the course 35 which was obtained from R035 VOR CAD, aircraft descends to
4000ft to PO609 and maintains this altitude going towards PO611. Then turns right
until reaching ILS RWY 06 at course 36.
This is a straight-in approach with the IAF (ODILO) out of the central line of the
runway 06.

The runway 06 has been selected because of the preferential configurations of the AIP:
If we choose runway 26 (preferred to land facing west), the approach is not simple:
