Default Why publish a plate for an OTS approach?

I have no idea of the current status of the SDF approach in question.
It may be in service, or it may be decommissioned.

If I wanted current status, however, I would check a) the current
approach chart, along with b) DUATS FDC NOTAMS, and c) the NOTAM
piublication.

All this information is available on the internet at no cost, easily
looked up.


My point is the same point I made twice now. With all available
information available on the internet at no cost, anyone who is not
aware of a deauthorized approach at his destination has not done
adequate preflight.

Are you saying that your two minute lookup is adequate, then? Do the
NOTAMs you found include the NOTAM deauthorizing the SDF approach at
KSME that the original poster referred to? What's your point?

Looked them up in two minutes. Free.

I'll say it again. Anyone who is not aware of a NOTAM deauthorizing
an approach has not performed adequate preflight.
Does your list include the NOTAMS that are more than 56(?) days old but
are still in force, or is this just a DUAT dump?
