Are you saying this isn't possible?

Can't figure out why anyone would use that green book. I use the
Airguide. Check notams before you go. What's the problem?

The price of the green book is about 1/6th of the cost of Airguide.

Don't get me wrong; I have a Flight Guide subscription too.

I haven't ever checked because I didn't care about the price. We have
the green books at the tower and they are horrible. I have the western
and central states and it costs $50 a year, the green books only cost
about $8 a year totasl for two thirds of the country?

Each region's 56 day AF/D is priced at $4.20. Regional subscriptions
are $19.95.

That's what I thought, those crappy green books are a lot more expensive.
