With approximately one-third of its annual 128,200 operations traffic count consumed by airline operations and the rest split between air taxi, general aviation and military operations, Boise, Idaho (BOI), demands pilots be on their toes for traffic of all shapes and sizes when visiting. This month’s ILS Y 10 Right approach comes equipped with a number of potential step-down fixes along the way to SITSE, the FAF, as well as the potential for a little maneuvering to the landing runway near the end of the approach and a couple of noted items that might trip up a pilot not paying close attention to the plate.
Chart Wise: Boise ILS Y 10R
Key Takeaways:
- The ILS Y 10 Right approach at Boise (BOI) is intricate, requiring pilots to pay close attention to diverse traffic and specific procedure details.
- Pilots must account for higher minimums when sidestepping to Runway 10 Left, follow specific conditions for multiple feeder routes, and ensure correct DME source selection for step-downs, noting the Missed Approach Point is at 1.8 DME.
- The approach also mandates remaining south of Runway 10 Left-28 Right for circling maneuvers due to terrain, and executing a complex, multi-leg missed approach involving VOR radial intercepts to a hold.
