How do you find the limits of areas on a chart?
I see tons of restricted areas, MOAs, Class B, C, D, E airspace, and
the like on charts, but no clear indication of how to locate the boundaries of these areas other than by pure guesstimate based on looking at the chart. On rare occasions I see a radial noted as the boundary of an area, or a radius, but in many cases there is nothing. How in the world are you supposed to know when you are inside or outside one of these areas, if you are not flying miles away from them? Yes, GPS units and some other devices may provide real-time display of one's position with these areas superimposed, but such devices have not always been available. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |
