Chart Tips from FAA Safety Meeting

I attended a FAA Safety Meeting a while back about charts and I jotted down some interesting tips:

  • All visual charts have edition #'s. (Sectionals, WACs, TACs).

  • On WACs, purple shaded areas are the TACs.

  • TACs have 2 sides: #1: Navigation side with details in vairous colors; #2: Flyway Planning Chart depicts same as from without color, B airspace leaps out used for flight ops in and around Class B. A Flyway is a suggested way around large metropolitan areas, use driving rules - stay on right side
