PLT OF A SMA SEL INADVERTENTLY FLIES THROUGH A RESTR AREA.

Narrative

15 ACFT IN OUR EAA CHAPTER GOING IN TO SAN ANGELO - RESTR AIRSPACE AROUND A DOD RADAR SITE - UNMARKED ON CHART (SECTIONAL OR WAC) APCH VECTORED SOME (ACFT) AROUND IT; OTHERS WENT RIGHT OVER FACILITY. SHOULD BE ON CHART. CALLBACK CONVERSATION WITH RPTR REVEALED THE FOLLOWING INFO: RPTR STATED THAT THE ONLY WAY THAT HE AND OTHER PF IN TO THE SJT ARPT KNEW ABOUT THE RESTR AREA WAS THE INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN BY THE APCH CTL TO AVOID FLYING OVER THE RADAR SITE. APPROX HALF OF THE 15 ACFT WERE NOT SO ADVISED AND INADVERTENTLY FLEW OVER THE AREA ON THE RTE TO THE SJT ARPT. THE RPTR STATED THAT HE HEARD THAT THERE WAS A DOD NOTAM OUT CONCERNING THE RESTR AREA; BUT THAT THERE WAS NO REF TO THE RESTR AREA ON ANY AVIATION NAVIGATIONAL CHART. HE WONDERED HOW PLTS WERE EXPECTED TO AVOID THE AREA IF IT IS NOT SHOWN ON THE SECTIONAL OR WAC AVIATION CHARTS. HE RPTED THIS TO US IN AN EFFORT TO CLARIFY THE STATUS OF THE RESTR AREA AND BRING THIS MATTER TO THE ATTN OF THE FAA MIDLAND APCH CTL PPS STATED THERE IS A RESTR AREA ON SJT VORTAC 183 DEG RADIAL 24 NM AT AND BELOW 8500 FT MSL. THIS RESTR HAS BEEN IN EFFECT FOR 5 YRS AND IS NOT CHARTED. THE ONLY PLACE IT IS LISTED IS IN THE BACK OF THE ARPT FACILITY DIRECTORY. SEE ANALYST GRAPHIC. ATH 210 SW REGION IS TRYING TO GET THE MIL TO CHART THE RESTR AREA.
