That sounds right.

FWIW, I've encountered another place where nearby restricted airspace
determines whether or not you'll get an approach, W95, Ocracoke Island,
NC.

Whichever approach you get, either the approach course or the missed
approach bumps up against R5306A. To compound the problem, the only
approach facility is Washington Center, and once you get down to approach
altitudes, they have neither radar nor comm coverage.

Nice to have the approaches published, but so far I've never been able to
get center to clear me for one of them.


According to the plates these approaches are handled by Cherry Point
Approach Control. The sectional says to contact Cherry Point Approach for
clearance through the restricted area. Have you ever tried that?
