Prior to flying, pilots are supposed to review the NOTAMs (Notice to Airmen, or Notice to Air Mission) for an airport, and the NOTAMs for the airport made it clear that that runway 11/29 was closed until 5:45AM, except for taxiing and crossing the runway. That’s a big no-no.

While reviewing NOTAMs before a flight you notice that GPS operations are NOTAM'd as UNRELIABLE or MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE for your route of flight. You can plan to depart normally, but you must use an alternate form of navigation when flying in the NOTAM'd area. The FAA issues information on the status of GPS through NOTAMs.

If you are going to be using this approach, be sure you have checked NOTAMs verifying that all of the VORs are functional. With two radios in most airplanes and standby frequencies, this would keep a pilot working to make sure they were navigating using the correct source at different points to align with this approach.
