IFR Low Altitude Enroute Atlas
Benefits:
- Full Color reproductions of FAA/NACO Low Altitude
Enroute charts
- The only easy-handling spiral bound IFR atlas!
- Covers the full contiguous U.S.
- Pilot & Navigator-Friendly
- Handy chart numbering system for easy use
The IFR Low Altitude Enroute Atlas is an easy-to-read,
easy-to-use IFR chart book. It features FAA/NACO
Low Altitude charts of the entire U.S. The charts
are exact full color reproductions of the FAA/NACO
originals, and come spiral bound for easier functionality.
Cumulative NOTAM updates are sent every 8 weeks-update
in minutes only when you fly!
Charts shown are same scale reproductions of
the FAA-NACO IFR Low Altitude Enroute Charts.
They are the only IFR charts that have airport
data on all charts including elevation, runway
length and type of lighting (PCL, part time, etc).
Locating a Chart Quickly-Using the chart key
map, locate a chart by referencing a city. When
the desired chart is located, the chart reference
numbers adjacent to the main chart number show
the next chart in sequence. It's simple and easy
to navigate within the atlas.
Charts are reproduced in exact colors of the
original FAA/NACO low altitude charts.
Color shading includes green for all shorelines
and inland bodies of water and brown for all restricted
airspace. Class B and C airspace are shaded in
blue.
Coverage Area includes the full Continental U.S.
Some areas of foreign airspace are shown solely
for the purpose of border orientation as they
are not maintained for IFR use by the FAA.
Class B & C Airspace is shown as shaded areas
to warn you if you are cancelling IFR. To fly
VFR into these areas, see the Topographic Atlas or VFR Sectional Atlases.
Chart Usage is for all IFR flight plans as authorized
by ATC in U.S. Airspace. With current updates,
this chart meets and exceeds the FAA's Recommended
Standards for IFR charts.
VFR Use - In addition, these charts fill many
needs of VFR flight such as determining airway
MEAs for terrain clearance and MRAs for minimum
reception altitudes, fix names and locations for
reporting points and orientation ... especially
when monitoring center freqs to know location
of IFR traffic reporting weather, etc.
Area Charts - only 12 area charts are
used in the FAA/NACO plan, mainly to meet military
needs. FAA feels pilots should not be burdened
with changing charts, especially adding to the
arrival workload. Therefore most FAA/NACO charts
are large scale with all airport data to eliminate
the need for a 2nd chart. |
