Scheduled instrument procedure changes in Louisiana

As of Wednesday, May 26th 2010

This table was compiled by Ian Kluft, Certified Flight Instructor (PilotQuest.com).

This is a list of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) schedule for changes to instrument flight procedures at airports in Louisiana. It is of interest to instrument-rated pilots who fly in Louisiana, and pilots training for an instrument rating in Louisiana.

Colors highlight new procedures, canceled procedures, VNAV/LPV/RNP approaches and RNAV arrivals/departures. See the glossary of GPS/RNAV terms at the bottom of the list.

The FAA's plans can and do change. This list is updated weekly. Data source: FAA National Aeronautical Charting Office (NACO)
