Figure 2: The published Obstacle Departure Procedures (ODPs) for Bar Harbor, Maine. Note that three of the four runways at BHB are specified in the ODPs. Bangor (BGR) has a radar vectored SID serving both runways, but no published ODPs.
(ODPs) for BHB (see Figure 2). While Maine’s Down East is certainly not as mountainous as the Rockies, it is also a far cry from the Central Plains. ODPs are published for many area runways and care should be given to comply accordingly. Even with the specific procedures the ODPs require, with typical King Air turbine performance you’ll be above the highest obstructions in short order. Whatever your route home, you’ll likely spend much of it mulling your Acadia experiences and contemplating a return trip. KA
