This rule updates two FAA flight procedures at Putnam County Regional Airport in Greencastle, Indiana: one RNAV (GPS) approach for runway 36 and one VOR approach. These changes affect pilots, flight planners, and airport operators by changing the published instructions used for instrument landings and departures. The FAA says the updates are based on current navigation and safety conditions and are already effective in the national flight data system. Businesses that support flight operations should make sure charts, flight planning tools, and pilot briefings reflect the new versions effective June 11, 2026.
