[JYO] Leesburg Localizer to be shut down today

The LOC17 approach will be NOTAM'ed out as of today, for somewhere between  6 
& 8 weeks.  Our 8 bar Localizer antenna will be replaced, along with  the old 
transmitter.

At the conclusion, we will have the new 16-bar  localizer antenna and 
solid-state transmitter that supports the ILS  installation.  Minimums will 
remain 
the same, but you might notice a very  'slight' improvement in your alignment 
with the runway when the needle is  centered.  

We also apologize for the VERY short notice for this  NOTAM.  Don't EVEN get 
me started on the three letter agency that funds and  runs this project.   We 
literally got the call late this morning that  they're starting tomorrow 
morning.

Thanks for your  patience,

Dennis
