An Echo arrival includes which points?

• A. Echo, Hughes, Igor
• B. Hughes, Echo, Igor
• C. Echo, Igor, Hughes
• D. Igor, Echo, Hughes

Answer: (A)

Understanding how an arrival’s waypoint sequence works is key. An Echo arrival defines a fixed progression of fixes that you fly in order to transition from en route to the approach. For this particular arrival, the path starts at Echo, then goes to Hughes, and finally to Igor. That exact order is what the published procedure requires, so Echo → Hughes → Igor is the correct sequence. Any option that changes the order would not match the published path, which could lead to flying the wrong leg or receiving an unexpected clearance. The sequence matters because each leg connects to the next, guiding your aircraft along the intended route toward the approach.
