Can You Read This Boston ILS 4R Approach Plate?

ILS·Boston Logan International (KBOS)·RWY 4R·10 Questions·Premium

Boston Logan sits on the harbour, and its ILS RWY 4R carries a unique twist: a separate set of minima that applies when the control tower reports tall vessels (ships) in the approach area. The plate also features a missed approach to WAXEN on the BOS R-030, a two-sector MSA, and ALSF-2 lighting. This quiz tests whether you can read every note that matters.
