Proposed Instrument Approach Removals

[denverpilot]

Federal Register listing of proposed removals of instrument approaches.

Here in Colorado, looks like removal of the on-field VORs at DRO, MTJ, and TEX. Highly likely the precision approaches will also lose their DME arc based IAPs at DRO and MTJ.

Other States listed in the document and credit where due, posted to FB with a list of Michigan proposed removals originally by Steve Tupper.

They propose to eliminate 26 approaches in Iowa, all of them VOR or NDB. For example, a VOR approach to the same runway that is also served by an ILS and an LPV - RNAV approach. I would guess no pilots will care.

They are not proposing to eliminate the one VOR approach that I often use. So I am okay with their plan.
