Note: When JEEMY/FATHEs are west", release DRE airspace to DRW.
Arrival Procedures
Bitho Arrivals: Bitho arrivals received from ARB and landing the MLB/COF complex are on radio communication transfer, released for decent in ARB airspace and turns up to 30 degrees either side of course.

North Ops
South Ops
Duties
Provides approach control services within the airspace depicted.
MCO Approaches
Visual Approaches
When vectoring aircraft to the localizer for a visual approach for Runway 17R/L, aircraft shall cross ELLAN/FONIK at or above 3,000 and GLOSI/SEEDO at or above 2,500 feet.
Example: American 101, cross ELLAN at or above three thousand, cleared visual approach runway 17R.
North Ops
South Ops
Duties
Provides approach control services within the airspace depicted.
MCO Approaches
Visual Approaches
When Orlando is South operations, vector turbojet aircraft arrivals so that they are established on a ground track between 160 and 200 before the ORL VORTAC.
When vectoring aircraft for a visual approach for runway 18R and 18L ensure turbojet aircraft maintain 3,000 feet until 5DME north of the ORL VORTAC and 2,500 feet until south of the ORL VORTAC.
Example: American 101, CROSS FIVE MILES NORTH OF THE VOR AT OR ABOVE THREE THOUSAND THEN MAINTAIN TWO THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED UNTIL SOUTH OF THE VOR, CLEARED VISUAL APPROACH RUNWAY 18R.
