AIP Question
I have a question regarding the rings shown on some charts and not
others. They are a dashed ring and are labeled "FEEDER FACILITIES" and/or "ENROUTE FACILITIES". The may not be on all charts nor both on the same chart. For example http://naco.faa.gov/d-tpp/0801/06000LD15.PDF. I tried the Google route and that didn't work. I thought some of the ATC folks could help me find out their meaning. Ross KSWI |

IAP Question
NACO plates are not to scale outside of the 10-mile ring. Having the dashed
lines enables them to show you fixes that would normally be too far away to print. Bob Gardner "Ross" wrote in message news:E%xfj.86$TO.51@trnddc01... I corrected the subject...

Where a 10 mile ring is not shown, the chart is to scale throughout the plan view. Example: http://www.naco.faa.gov/d-tpp/0801/06941R18.PDF |

Example: http://www.naco.faa.gov/d-tpp/0801/06941R18.PDF So a circle will always show either a fix for the feeder facilities and / or a VOR, etc for enroute facilities and the circle will go though the fix or VOR, etc? Just want to be sure I understand. |

The circle is just for cartographic convenience. All it shows is that the stuff outside the circle is NOT to scale. The stuff outside the circle might be feeder stuff or it might be an actual piece of the approach (an IAF may indeed be outside the circle). You're reading too much into it. |

Ross KSWI Basically they are there to tell you that there are facilities that are on other charts, such as in this case, a STAR and an enroute chart. FWIW, my understanding is that NACO is starting to remove the FEEDER and ENROUTE rings off of charts as they add unnecessarily clutter. |
