VFR arrival procedure for Nellis runway 21

I have seen that runway 3L is the standard departure runway and 21L is the arrival runway at Nellis.

I have only seen instrument approach charts for runway 21...is there a VFR arrival procedure? I have only seen the Sin City arrival which is for runway 3R/L.

There are both TACAN and ILS charts for 21L at Nellis.

Thank you...yes, I have seen those.

What I am looking for is how a visual approach into 21 is done.

You fly an overhead recovery with a pattern altitude of 3500’ MSL.

Disregard..

I found the charts for STRYK, ACTON, ARCOE, MINTT, and ALAMO recoveries witch provide VFR approach info into runway 21.

it sounds like you are looking for a charted visual flight procedure for that runway. A CVFP is specific type of visual approach procedure where you use landmarks as visual references instead of just the airport or a proceeding aircraft to follow. CVFP may have different minimums from a regular visual. CVFPs are not really all that common. I think the SIN CITY VISUAL Rwy 03L/R is the only CVFP for Nellis, although they may have something for 21 that isn’t published publicly?

My guess is they just would just do normal visual approaches for the 21 direction.

Also, it doesn’t make sense to me that they would make a general practice of simultaneously running departures and arrivals on reciprocal runways. That must be a DCS thing!?

I was a little confused as to what you were asking for. A VISUAL APPROACH is an instrument approach procedure flown under IFR, remaining clear of clouds and keeping the airport or proceeding aircraft in sight, basically in VMC or ceiling>=1000ft vis >=3sm.

A visual approach is not a VFR procedure.

My apologies for the confusion...I was using the wrong terminology.

I did end up finding what I was looking for with the recovery procedures.

Thanks for the help!

You got it. I like that map. I’m especially looking forward to that area after they revamp ATC.

It’s a Nellis AFB thing in real life...
