Interpretation

All arriving aircraft operating within the Kuwait TMA must maintain 180 kt on base leg or when turning to intercept the final approach track while within 15 NM DME of the threshold; maintain 180 kt on final approach until 8 NM from touchdown; and maintain 160 kt from 8 NM to 4 NM from touchdown, unless otherwise instructed by ATC. Aircraft unable to comply must advise ATC as soon as practicable. When ATC states “no speed restriction,” these and any previously assigned ATC speed restrictions are cancelled, and aircraft may adjust speed for a safe, stabilized approach unless ATC instructs otherwise.
