It would be interesting to hear the response.



Here it is:

Steven,

After reviewing our records it appears that the "ADF Required" note
should be charted on ILS or LOC Rwy 2 SIAP. This ADF note was added on
the chart per TL06-09 CCP request effective 5/11/06. We would need a
revised procedure to remove the note. I have forwarded your question
onto AVN-100 Don Harmer. Hopefully, AVN-100 will evaluate your concern
and if necessary revise the current procedure.

Thank you for your concern

Paul Spadaro
NACO



And here is my reply:

Dear Mr. Spadaro,

I did not have a question, I wrote only to point out the error on the
chart. Can you tell me what is in your records that makes it appear
that the "ADF REQUIRED" note should be charted on the ILS or LOC RWY 2
SIAP? Can you tell me why this ADF note was added on the chart per
TL06-09 CCP request? Why would you need a revised procedure to remove
the note? Since this approach can be flown without ADF it would appear
the note should never have been added, unless "ADF REQUIRED" means
something other than "ADF is needed to fly this approach". Does it?

Have a nice day.

Steven P. McNicoll


Mr Spadaro was explaining why he added the note; it was initiated by CCP
request (P-Notam). The P-NOTAM is a procedure amendment and was issued
by NFPG. NACO just charts what they are told to chart, as long as it
meets charting criteria. He didn't create the note, so he forwarded your
question to Don Harmer, who is a manager at NFPG/AVN. NFPG is the only
agency that can change the note, and it would have to be an amendment to
the procedure, either via another CCP or a full-blown amendment.
I'm sure Mr Harmer will review the procedure and determine if the note
is or is not required and take action to remove it or revise it if
necessary based on FAAO 8260.3 and 8260.19 requirements.
