Does anyone sell sectionals which have been enlarged, i.e. are easier to
read? Would make it easier on a few pax who have trouble following along,
even with reading glasses.
I dunno if such a thing would still be called a sectional, as the scales
would then be off...
Well, the guy at
http://aviationtoolbox.org/raw_data/FAA_sectionals/
was very very nice and bought the whole set of scanned sectionals from
the FAA. You *could* d/l what you needed there and enlarge as you
please.
One problem: The FAA scanned sectionals are just that: scanned. So,
they're not true digital source copies or anything. Nice for
preflight discussion, but I'm not sure about navigational purposes.
Not for my taste at least.
Second problem: I kinda like having nicely calibrated 5 nm index
fingers. Enlarging would mess that up.
But for passengers with eyesight issues, I could certianly understand!
