At the risk of sounding ingnorant, what does TERP mean?

He's verbing the noun. TERPS is the "United States Standard for Terminal Instrument Procedures."
It's also a misuse. TERPS applies to the design. Flying them periodically is just called "Flight
Inspection." The FAA hasn't used a DC-3 for this in quite some time (they were retired in the
mid-eighties). One, N34, has been restored for publicity purposes.
