Subject: Henderson Runway 35 Standard Instrument Departure Procedures

Cancellation: 02/16/2020 1200 (UTC)

All Standard Instrument Departure procedures (SIDs) departing Runway 35 at Henderson Executive Airport (HND) have a mandatory crossing restriction to cross KITEE at 6,000’ MSL.

While all the HND SIDs have a top altitude of FL190, expect a clearance to “Climb via SID except maintain 7000’.” Pilots are still required to meet all published crossing restrictions when assigned a “Climb via” clearance.

  • A few pilots have missed the crossing restriction at KITEE
  • Complete a pre-brief prior to departure to review SID restrictions
  • The crossing restriction is designed to separate HND departures from other traffic flows
