Aeronautical Chart
An aeronautical chart is a specialized map designed for the use of pilots and air traffic controllers. It provides essential information about the geography, airspace, and navigation aids relevant to flying. These charts include details such as airports, runways, navigational waypoints, and air traffic routes, helping pilots navigate safely and efficiently.
There are various types of aeronautical charts, including VFR (Visual Flight Rules) charts and IFR (Instrument Flight Rules) charts. VFR charts are used for visual navigation, while IFR charts are designed for flying in poor visibility conditions. Both types are crucial for ensuring safe air travel and effective communication between pilots and air traffic control.
