HIGH ALTITUDE CHARTS

The following legend, applicable to High Altitude Charts only, is in addition to the preceding legend. Many items in the
preceding legend are also applicable to the High Altitude Charts.

Geographical coordinates (latitude and longitude) of each facility are shown across the bottom of the facility box. The
letter (H) indicates an H-class facility. The letter (L) indicates an L-class facility. The letter (T) indicates a T-class facility.
The letter “D” indicates the availability of DME. In areas of congestion, off-route facility geographical coordinates are
shown in an alphabetical listing elsewhere on the chart.

frequencies in Communications Tabulations on chart end panel.

Airport diagram showing runways of major airports only.

Other airports are shown by green symbols

Man-made structure having a height of 1000 feet or more above

ground level. The elevation is above mean sea level.

Communications frequencies for the major airports shown on an Area Chart are given in a block as illustrated below.

GENERALIZED TERRAIN CONTOURS

Terrain information may be depicted on area charts when terrain within the area chart coverage rises more than 4000
feet above the main airport.
Generalized terrain contour lines and contour values are depicted on selected charts. Gradient tints indicate the elevation
change between contour intervals. Contour lines, values and tints are printed in brown. Within contour intervals some,
but not all, terrain high points may be included along with their elevation above mean sea level for use as additional
reference.
THE TERRAIN CONTOUR INFORMATION DEPICTED DOES NOT ASSURE CLEARANCE ABOVE OR AROUND TERRAIN OR
MAN-MADE STRUCTURES. THERE MAY BE HIGHER UNCHARTED TERRAIN OR MAN-MADE STRUCTURES WITHIN THE
SAME VICINITY. TERRAIN CONTOUR INFORMATION IS USEFUL FOR ORIENTATION AND GENERAL VISUALIZATION OF
TERRAIN. IT DOES NOT REPLACE THE MINIMUM ALTITUDES DICTATED BY THE AIRWAY AND AIR ROUTE STRUCTURE.
Furthermore, the absence of terrain contour information does not ensure the absence of terrain or
structures.
