Airspace and Chart Representations
Topic Description
This topic is a review of the National Airspace System (NAS), including its classification and associated chart depictions. This comprehensive review focuses on the interpretation of symbols and terms found on IFR enroute and Instrument Approach Procedure (IAP) charts. These aeronautical charts guide pilots flying under IFR to effectively navigate, communicate, and execute an instrument approach based on the navigation capability of their aircraft and the approach aids available at the destination.
