In the RWYs 4, 31L/R, or 36 scenario, which initial abeam location is specified?

The concept here is where you begin the standard traffic pattern by crossing abeam a specific fix. For the RWYs 4, 31L/R or 36 scenario, the published plan designates PT DIMMIT as the abeam point, so you pass abeam that fix to start the downwind leg and proceed with the pattern in the intended sequence. This ensures proper spacing and alignment for turns onto base and final. The other named points aren’t the designated abeam location for this pattern in this scenario, so they aren’t used as the initial abeam point here.
