Phoenix Sky Harbor sits in the high desert at over 1100 ft, so its approach altitudes look high until you account for elevation. The ILS RWY 25L plate features a climbing LEFT-turn missed approach to POPKE, a three-sector MSA rising toward the surrounding terrain, simultaneous approaches with Rwy 26, and an unusual "autopilot coupled approach NA below 1925" note. This quiz tests whether you can read a busy desert-hub plate accurately.
