RACCA: Volume of Terminal Procedures Becoming Unwieldy
The cargo carries organization is encouraging the FAA to work with various pilots group to simplify the terminal-area procedures package.

Citing a concern that the number of published procedures has swelled to nearly unmanageable numbers in busier terminal areas, the Regional Air Cargo Carriers Association (RACCA) has asked the FAA to look at means to streamline and simplify those procedures. In a June 1 letter to Flight Standards director John Duncan, RACCA v-p John Hazlet pointed to the 58 different departure, arrival and approach procedures and notes pages in the current Jeppesen Airway Manual for Los Angeles International. He added that San Francisco International has 74 such procedures.
