Thanks for the reply. I actually asked this in the wrong place and am sorry to take your time. When I look at approaches on Skyvector there are sometimes asterisks after the approach name. Just wondering what that means.

Anyway, wish you a Happy New Year!

I guess on Skyvector it means there are special characters in the chart.
But not only asterisks, also hashes, crosses, and other special characters can occur inside the navigation chart.
They are for (non typical) special conditions referred in the chart.
For example look at approach chart: ILS28L in KSFO: https://skyvector.com/files/tpp/2313/pdf/00375IL28L.PDF

ps. Happy New Year! 🙂
