The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has amended Standard Instrument Approach Procedures (SIAPs) at Homer Airport in Alaska.
These changes are part of a broader update to SIAPs, Takeoff Minimums, and Obstacle Departure Procedures (ODPs) across various airports to enhance safety and efficiency in the National Airspace System.
The specific amendment for Homer Airport involves the RNAV (GPS) Z RWY 4 procedure, which has been updated to Amendment 1C, effective Feb. 20, 2025.
These updates are driven by new or revised criteria, changes in navigational facilities, and air traffic requirements to ensure safe flight operations under instrument flight rules.
The FAA has determined that these amendments are routine and necessary to keep flight procedures operationally current, with minimal anticipated economic impact.
The changes are effective immediately upon publication to address immediate flight safety needs, as previously issued in a Flight Data Center (FDC) Notice to Air Missions (NOTAM).
