Non existent VOR
From AIM 5-1-1 paragraph D:
d. FSSs are required to advise of pertinent NOTAMs if a standard briefing is requested, but if they are overlooked, don't hesitate to remind the specialist that you have not received NOTAM information. NOTE- NOTAMs which are known in sufficient time for publication and are of 7 days duration or longer are normally incorporated into the Notices to Airmen Publication and carried there until cancellation time. FDC NOTAMs, which apply to instrument flight procedures, are also included in the Notices to Airmen Publication up to and including the number indicated in the FDC NOTAM legend. Printed NOTAMs are not provided during a briefing unless specifically requested by the pilot since the FSS specialist has no way of knowing whether the pilot has already checked the Notices to Airmen Publication prior to calling. Remember to ask for NOTAMs in the Notices to Airmen Publication. This information is not normally furnished during your briefing. REFERENCE- AIM, Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) System, Paragraph 5-1-3. Therefore, you have to specifically ask for the printed NOTAMs when talking to a flight briefer. DUATs briefings DO include the printed NOTAMs in every case I've checked.

Did you check the updates in your IAPs? It's even there in a DUAT briefing I just pulled down: ******** NOTAMs ******** !MIA 11/102 PHK HIWAS OTS !MIA 11/015 PHK VORTAC OTS |

They should have known better. |

he was assigned the route over PHK by JAX ARTCC. Did he have GPS? Can you not assign a route via dead VORs if the aircraft can still navigate it? Jose -- Nothing takes longer than a shortcut. for Email, make the obvious change in the address. |

They just recently stopped notaming an ILS OTS when the DME would be taken out of service and that DME was listed on the plate as required. They just figured out that most people aren't using DME. |

"Jose" wrote in message . .. Did he have GPS? I don't think so. He didn't mention GPS and he said he had not been receiving any signal from PHK on his nav receiver. Can you not assign a route via dead VORs if the aircraft can still navigate it? Yes, if the aircraft is /E, /F, /G, or /R. |

FAA Order 7110.65R Air Traffic Control Chapter 4. IFR Section 4. Route Assignment 4-4-4. ALTERNATIVE ROUTES When any part of an airway or route is unusable because of NAVAID status, clear aircraft other than /E, /F, /G, or /R, via one of the following alternative routes: a. A route depicted on current U.S. Government charts/publications. Use the word "substitute" immediately preceding the alternative route in issuing the clearance. b. A route defined by specifying NAVAID radials, courses, or azimuths. c. A route defined as direct to or between NAVAIDs. d. Vectors. NOTE- Inform area navigation aircraft that will proceed to the NAVAID location of the NAVAID outage. |

I don't think so. He didn't mention GPS and he said he had not been receiving any signal from PHK on his nav receiver. I had a Garmin GPS 195 portable and a King KLN 89A in the panel with an out of date database. I did not file any remarks indicating that I had area nav on board. Can you not assign a route via dead VORs if the aircraft can still navigate it? Yes, if the aircraft is /E, /F, /G, or /R. I filed /A |

It's even there in a DUAT briefing I just pulled down: ******** NOTAMs ******** !MIA 11/102 PHK HIWAS OTS !MIA 11/015 PHK VORTAC OTS I'm late in joining this thread, but on an Angel Flight a year or so ago, I was happily moving along my IFR flight plan following airways when IND approach told my the Hoosier VOR was OTS. I was never told that during my briefing. 3 seconds after an "uhh... stand by" on my part, IND offered vector direct to my next VOR. Duh. D - next waypoint & we're off. Actually shaved a few minutes off, anyway. It did kind of surprise me, though. |
