Which statement is true about the three arrivals Whiskey, Snake, and Echo?

• A. Hughes is a common waypoint for all three
• B. Whiskey is a common waypoint for all three
• C. Echo is a common waypoint for all three
• D. Igor is a common waypoint for all three

Answer: (D)

A common waypoint is a fix that appears on multiple arrival routes, where the paths merge before the final approach. In the Whiskey, Snake, and Echo arrivals, all three routes pass through the same point, Igor, before continuing to the approach. That shared fix is what makes Igor the common waypoint. The other names listed aren’t found on all three arrivals, so they aren’t the shared point across every route.
