DP Question
Hello. I am an IFR student (near the end- Last stage check of a Part
141). I have a question about a DP. The GATEWAY FOUR DP from CPS (E. St. Louis) has a note "For Turbojet aircraft only". Can this DP be used (voluntarily) for piston a/c? On this particular DP, the altitudes only call "Climb/Maintain 2500 or assigned. EFC to filed in 10 min." There are no similar DP for piston a/c. I had been taught that if there is a DP that you can comply with, you should file it (i.e. GATWY4.BIB V12 ..etc). Opinions? Larry |

You can file whatever you want. However, since the procedure says For Turbojets Only, ATC will probably not clear you this way in a small GA a/c. You'd interfere with the faster turbojets. If I wanted to go in that direction, I'd probably just file VOR's, airways, and/or direct routings. There is no requirement to FILE a DP, whether or not you can comply with it.
