Most USAF procedures can be used by civilians. I don't have a problem with

Yes, but, it's usually at a military base with "prior permission only," which
places you squarely on notice to be diligent and not assume FAA standards, either
as to procedures or air traffic operations.


What do you think are the chances of either getting USAF to change their
procedures, or the FAA to review every USAF approach to ensure that it is
described the same as an FAA approach?


At this location the FAA might take over the procedures--eventually. As to the
latter: never.



It might be easier to learn the differences.


I don't think most of the issues with the procedure at issue are "differences,"
they are errors.
