There's a NOTAM out for KSAC ILS-2 which states that the following
note should be added to the planview: "ADF Required".

Why is ADF required for this IAP? The marker beacon should tell you
when you're over the LOM, and the missed approach procedure says you
need to hold at the VOR or the NDB.

Is there some requirement for the use of the ADF which I'm not seeing?


There are two current NOTAMs for SAC. The one you mentioned, and one
showing the VOR unserviceable. Without the VOR an ADF is needed for the
missed approach.




Thanks Stephen.

The VOR being OTS is temporary. It will be out from 9:00AM to 4:00PM
on Wednesday (local time).

I was under the impression that the change to the SIAP was permanent...
Because it was done via an FDC NOTAM. Perhaps I'm off base there?
They said it was AMDT 22C.

So will they then come out with an AMDT 22D which says to remove
the note?

I just didn't think they would make a permanent change (FDC) to the
SAIP for a temporary condition.


They don't issue Permanent FDC NOTAMS (which is what one is when it
amends the procedure from 22B to 22C). They will sometimes issue a
temporary FDC NOTAM for a facility outage, but never for one day.

These NOTAMS are geared to NACO charts. NACO cannot chart a T FDC
NOTAM. They must chart a P FDC NOTAM.
