Default IFR approaches to airports with buildings in protected zone

Yep - CWS - my bad. I didn't pull the plate just responded from memory. I'm
pretty sure it used to be CWY years ago, but I believe they changed it a
while back. Kind of like the old habit call Boeing Tower when at King County
in Seattle, or Riverside Tower at the Jones airport in Tulsa. Old habits die
hard.

Did you notice that the threshold is displaced 1643' ? That's a heck of an
impact from a very small encroachment.


I was told there is/was an antenna there as well which may have played
more of a role in the displacement. I should learn much more with
time about the process.
