What does MORA Mean in the NavLog?
In the Navigation log, MORA is displayed in parenthesis under MEA. When
an MEA is not present with a waypoint, JIFP uses the Grid MORA where the
waypoint resides. The Grid MORAs provide an obstacle clearance altitude
within a latitude and longitude grid block, usually one degree by one
degree. On Jeppesen charts, all MORA altitudes which are 6000 feet or
lower have an obstacle clearance of 1,000 feet. If the MORA altitudes
are 7,000 feet or greater, the obstacle clearance is 2,000 feet.
