the TMA entry point to the FAP may be seen as the expected
track to the start of the instrument approach procedure.
Deviation from the track may be regarded as a delaying
action.

1.1.1 Descent planning
Pilots shall plan descent into Stockholm TMA in accordance
with STAR descriptions as published on ESSA 4-45 through

exceeded in spite of speed restrictions.

1.2 Approach speed limits
Unless otherwise instructed following speeds applies. Aircraft
unable to conform shall inform ATCC. Aircraft below FL100
shall fly at maximum IAS 250 kt. When established on final
