KBOS General Edward Lawrence Logan Intl — local VFR procedures

Runway 14/32 is unidirectional: no landings on 14, no takeoffs on 32. There is no nighttime curfew — Logan operates 24 hours. Massport and the FAA encourage use of the published RNAV SIDs, which Massport calls critical to its Fly Quiet goals.

These routes are advisory as published — none of them is a regulation. Assigned by ATC in Class B, C or D airspace, a route becomes an ATC instruction under 14 CFR 91.123; “unable” remains available to the pilot in command. Each procedure page shows its own authority level and links its primary sources.
