Airport/Facility Directory
is a pilot's manual that contains data on public use and joint
use airports, seaplane bases heliports, VFR airport sketches,
NAVAIDs, communications data, weather data sources, airspace,
special notices, and operational procedures. The seven volumes
cover the conterminous United States, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin
Islands. The Airport/Facility Directory includes data that cannot
be readily depicted in graphic form: e.g., airport hours of operation,
types of fuel available, runway data, lighting codes, etc. The
Airport/Facility Directory also provides a means for pilots to
update visual navigation charts between editions dates; i.e.,
the Airport/Facility Directory is published every 56 days while
the VFR Sectional and Terminal Area Charts are generally revised
every six months. Volumes are side-bound 5-3/8 x 8-1/4 inches.
