FAA airport code (P240) (see uses)
This template is used to generate an external link to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) terminal procedures for a specific airport. These links change every 28 days and the template calculates the correct URL based on the current date.
Usage
[edit]{{FAA-procedures|FAA}}
{{FAA-procedures|FAA|NAME}}
The template accepts one or two unnamed parameters:
- (required) – the airport's FAA location identifier
- (optional) – text to replace FAA identifier in displayed link
Examples
[edit]For Blairstown Airport (1N7):
Example using one parameter:
- Usage:
{{FAA-procedures|1N7}} - Result: FAA Terminal Procedures for 1N7, effective July 9, 2026
Examples using both parameters:
- Usage:
{{FAA-procedures|1N7|Blairstown Airport (1N7)}} - Result: FAA Terminal Procedures for Blairstown Airport (1N7), effective July 9, 2026
Technical information
[edit]The terminal procedures are part of the Aeronautical Information Publication (AIP) which is updated on a 28-day cycle as per the ICAO. For the FAA's digital - Terminal Procedures Publication, this causes a change in the URL involving four numbers: the first two represent the year (09 for 2009, 10 for 2010) and the second two represent the current AIRAC cycle (01 through 13). This template uses the current date (presently 5 Aug 2026) to calculate the effective date and the matching four-digit cycle number. The following is a list of the current and upcoming cycle numbers and effective dates:
- 2608 – effective 09 JUL 2026 to 06 AUG 2026
- 2609 – effective 06 AUG 2026 to 03 SEP 2026

- 2612 – effective 29 OCT 2026 to 26 NOV 2026
- 2613 – effective 26 NOV 2026 to 24 DEC 2026
- 2701 – effective 24 DEC 2026 to 21 JAN 2027
- 2702 – effective 21 JAN 2027 to 18 FEB 2027
