vfr arrival Airport sponsor published verified 2026-10-07 (2 d ago)
Published by the airport sponsor; voluntary unless ATC assigns it. If ATC assigns this route to you in Class B, C or D airspace, that assignment is an ATC instruction and compliance is required (14 CFR 91.123) — and “unable” remains available to the pilot in command.
Arrival from the south, entering the Class D 1 mile east of SR-167.
The route
- Make initial request approximately 8-12 miles (depending on airspeed) from KRNT
- Enter Delta airspace 1 mile east of SR-167
Where it actually is
North up. The sponsor names these landmarks and publishes no coordinate for any of them — everything positioned here is derived, and each coordinate's provenance is listed with its point below. Dashed markers are depicted: this site's reading of the written route, not published fixes.
- 1 Enter the Class D 1 NM east of SR-167 1 NM east of SR-167 Up on the Renton East Hill plateau, a mile east of the Valley Freeway. The brochure describes a point; what it means in practice is a southbound corridor offset east of SR-167 that keeps you out of Boeing Field's Class D to the west. Initial request 8-12 NM out depending on airspeed. The brochure gives no further routing for this one. satellite Apple Maps street view coordinate: derived: 1.0 NM east of the SR-167 centreline (OpenStreetMap) where that corridor leaves the KRNT Class D (FAA Class Airspace); elevation: USGS 3DEP point query

Put it in the GPS
Route points become a route; reference points ship as waypoints only — a GPS that sequences you to a do-not-overfly marker has it backwards.
