Just individual sections of charts. Our airport has IFR sectionals to
make up such a map. They just trim the white parts off, then start
pasting. You'll notice that not everything matches up, due to trying to
map the curve of the earth on a flat sheet of paper.

I'm trying to do something similiar with VFR sectionals on one my living
room walls, more or less centered on the area I fly. Covers a good
section of the upper midwest.


Yeah, I've done one on my wall that is JUST Arizona, and I love it. But
this one at the airport is the whole U.S., and they aren't full-size
sectionals or, as you said, it would never fit. I see you can buy a
"full set" of sectionals, 38 of them, for $200+ dollars, but again, they
would have to be reduced to fit all on one wall. We tried making one of
our area and some of CA and the surrounding area with one of those chart
*books*, but the pieces are only about 12 x 14, and the further out you
get, the less they match up. Just thought maybe there was a full U.S.
sectional mural available for purchase. Kind of surprised there isn't
... would seem it would sell.

Thanks to all for responding. I'm going to keep digging for a little
while anyway.
