Default IF labeling on approach charts

So they're adding the IF labeling to new/revised approaches? What does
that labeling do for you anyway?


Nothing, except for RNAV IAPs, where ATC (as of a year ago) can clear
you direct to the IF provided certain conditions are met. If there are
any stepdown fixes before or after the IF, it is impossible to tell
which fix (waypoint) is the IF unless it is charted.
