Yet when the VORTAC is inop the airline (MESA) still just heads on to DFW or JBR. It doesn't even matter if there is not a cloud in the sky. |

If they are MESA RJs and they're older, they may not have GPS as part of their FMS (I work for the manufacturer). The airline's flight operations SOP, which the pilots must follow, could require them to fly a published instrument approach even if it is severe clear VFR. John |

And I understand why they have to do it but that doesn't help much when you are trying to recruit somebody into an small town and he or she starts feeling like if they move here they won't be able to get out. |
