FAA discovers the Internet

[Kyler Laird]

"Aeronautical Information Services is in the process of testing a
web-based electronic data distribution system for the 56-day subscriber
files. This system will be replacing the current method of sending
subscribers a CD-ROM by FEDEX. The advantages of the new distribution
system are the data will be available almost a week and a half before
the CD is received; subscribers will be able to select whether to
download all or some of the files, and there is no cost to subscribe."

Do you have a web address? Will they be putting the sectionals on the web
too?

The sectionals are already on the web. You can buy them for $1.50 each
in GeoTIFF format.
