T/F: Not all airfields depicted in Green on a Low Altitude Enroute Chart have an approved IAP and/or RADMIN in the DOD FLIPS?

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Not specified
• D. Sometimes

Answer: (A)

Green shading on a Low Altitude Enroute Chart doesn’t guarantee an approved instrument approach procedure or RADMIN in DOD FLIPS. The chart’s color is a visual cue, but instrument procedures and related administrative data are published separately in FLIPS and can be unavailable or updated independently of the chart. So you must check FLIPS to confirm whether an IAP or RADMIN exists for a given field. That’s why the statement is true: not every green field will have an approved IAP and/or RADMIN.
