how to get NACO online charts conveniently?

What's interesting about the NACO charts is the list of airports
for Colorado. Buckley AFB is listed and no one except military
is allowed to land there. People have called with emergencies and
told that Aurora airpark (about to close) is 4.5 nm away, and
FTG is 11 nm away.

And yet FTG (Front Range), allegedly a reliever for DEN and
only 7 nm from DEN, isn't on the list.

odd.

Yes it is.

I couldn't find it. At the link

www.naco.faa.gov/ap_diagrams.asp

and selecting the Colorado state, the following airports are
displayed:

ASE - ASPEN PITKIN COUNTY-SARDY FIELD, CO . . . . . . . . . . PDF
KBKF - BUCKLEY AFB, CO . . . . . . . . . . PDF
APA - CENTENNIAL , CO . . . . . . . . . . PDF
COS - CITY OF COLORADO SPRINGS MUNI , CO . . . . . . . . . . PDF
DEN - DENVER INTL , CO . . . . . . . . . . PDF
BJC - JEFFCO , CO . . . . . . . . . . PDF
PUB - PUEBLO MEMORIAL , CO . . . . . . . . . . PDF
GJT - WALKER FIELD , CO . . . . . . . . . . PDF

When I searched for the FTG airport ID,

"No records found"

Where'd you find it?

Are you looking for approach plates or airport diagrams? FTG has no
published airport diagram.

Whoops...you're looking for the AP diagram...that one that's not published.

I don't think Front Range is considered a reliever for DEN...that would be
Centennial or Jeffco.

Yeah...I missed that from her firs request. I got stuck on AP's.

Diagrams are only published (near as I can tell ) for the bigger, more
complex layouts. That's definitely NOT FTG and it makes no difference how
close it is to DEN.

There's a mini on on the AP but it doesn't help much.

Hell, 00V (Meadow Lake) near COS is bigger, handles more traffic and doesn't
even rate an instrument approach :~(

I have noticed that the approach diagrams tend to be published for
towered fields, and not for untowered fields.

That is one of the reasons that I still use the Jepp product, it has a
full size layout for every airport with an approach to it.

Anybody figured out how to do a batch download of an entire state yet?

Now that NACO charts are in vector graphics you can crop the little airport
diagram for airports that don't have a full-page airport diagram, and print that
cropped diagram out full page, and at full resolution.

Unfortunately, those mini-diagrams don't have taxiway data or building
layouts.

Don't depend on them being updated...yet.
