INTRO TO ATS ROUTE CHARTS

BACKGROUND
 Elrey B. Jeppesen(1907-
1996) a pilot, began
recording aeronautical
information in the early
1930s
 For over 70 years
Jeppesen chart services
have set the standard for
current, complete, reliable
flight information
worldwide
3
BACKGROUND
 Its important to recognize that Jeppesen dose not

create aviation procedures, the charts Jeppesen creates
are , graphic representations of the procedures
designed by aviation authorities
 In compliance with the governing regulations
Jeppesen extracts the basic information for the charting
and nav data services from public documents and
disseminated by worldwide civil aviation authorities.
4
INTRODUCTION
 With increase in the number of navaids and the

complexity of the airways, the airspace system has
made specialized enroute charts a necessity for IFR
flights
 In addition to helping keep a track of a posn ,
enroute charts provide sufficient info to ensure
maintain a safe Alt and nav signal reception
 Area charts show major terminal areas in more
detail, and are primarily used during the transition to
and from the enroute structure
5
INTRODUCTION
 Enroute chart uses a specific set of symbols and

separate legend is published to explain these for better
understanding
 when referring to Jeppesen charts, keep in mind the
following conventions:
– Speeds are in knots
– Times are in coordinated universal time (UTC)
– Vertical distances are given in feet unless otherwise
specified
– Horizontal distances are given in nautical miles unless
otherwise specified
– Bearings are magnetic, unless suffixed by t for true

AIRSPACE AND BOUNDARIES
23
AIRSPACE
 All airspaces at and above 14,500 ft MSL, excluding

airspace within 1,500 ft of the ground is controlled
airspace
 Below this alt the airspace may either be controlled
or uncontrolled
 Area with white color is controlled airspace which
includes B , C , D and E airspace
 Uncontrolled class G airspace is shaded gray
24
AIRSPACE
 Areas where fixed wing special VFR clearance is not

aval are outlined with small squares in either maroon
or blue
 Prohibited and restd areas have maroon hatched
lines while warning , alert , or mil op areas have
green hatching

AIRSPACE

AIRSPACE
27
CLASS A AND B
 Class A airspace starts

from 18,000 ft MSL to
incl FL600 with only VFR
flts, ac must be fully
instrumented
 At some of the busiest
airports Class B airspace
is established from
surface to 10,000 for
arriving and departing tfc
separation
28
CLASS C AND D
 Class C airspaces are

designated at airports
where ATC is equeped
to provide radar svc ti
acs
 Class D airspaces are
designated at airports
with op con tower
which are not
associated with class B
and C 29
CLASS G AIRSPACE
 Class G is that airspace

which has not been
designated any other
airspace and is
essentially uncontrolled
by ATC

AREA CHARTS
 Area charts are created to show locations in large

scale
 These carts do not provide apch and dep info , but
help in transition to and from enroute structure
 Most of the symbology on the chart is same as
enroute charts except few addl features like showing
terrain above 4000 ft
 But one must comply with all min IFR alt of enroute
charts
