Refer to figure or E(LO)6 chart from the Jeppesen GSPRM 2017. 
An aircraft is flying from VALENCIA (VLC) VOR/DME (39° 29'N, 000° 29'W) to ALMERIA (AMR) VOR/DME (36° 49'N, 002° 15'W) with the LE(R)-63 activated, using a conventional ATS route. What is the best route to avoid passing through this area?

  • A
    VLC - G850 - AMR
  • B
    VLC - B28 - VIBAS - N865 - AMR
  • C
    VLC - B28 - BAZAS - M192 - AMR
  • D
    VLC - A34 - ALT - W810 - VSJ - W820 - AMR

Refer to figure.
First of all, find the position of VALENCIA (VLC) VOR/DME and ALMERIA (AMR) VOR/DME, using the coordinates given and locate, also, the LE(R)-63 airspace.

LE(R)-63 is a restricted airspace of defined dimensions with its boundaries as depicted in the figure in purple colour, probably activated by a NOTAM, which restricts any aircraft to pass through.

After examining each route carefully, the only route that sidesteps the LE(R)-63 is: VLC - B28 - VIBAS - N865 - AMR. All the other routes partially pass through the restricted area.
