Default IFR approaches to airports with buildings in protected zone

"Jim Carter" wrote:

Conway, Arkansas - CWY - has a building in the protected zone and has a GPS
approach from the East. The runway threshold has been displaced
significantly for both VFR and IFR arrivals - the VFR guys just try not to
hit the building and use all the runway. The actual encroachment is
supposedly less than a foot laterally and he built the building before the
city owned the airport and extended the runway.


Thanks. Do you mean CWS? I had a good talk with the airport manager
and got some information that will be helpful. Other airports that
fit this situation would also be useful.
