Generally, the contents of Standard Jeppesen airway manual are divided into thirteen main sections, seperated by tabs. Each section will be introduced briefly in this lesson.
All of the charts are bound in leather binder. Jeppesen airway manuals divide into different standard manuals according to geographical region on the world, such as EEU—Europe Manual, CHI—China Manual, PBN—Pacific Manual, etc.
Elrey B. Jeppesen(1907～ 1996), a pilot, began recording aeronautical information in the early 1930s. For over 70 years Jeppesen chart services have set the standard for current, complete, reliable flight information worldwide.
Chart Change Notices are revised and reissued every one or two weeks. As your preflight planning, you should obtain all the current Change Notices which affect your route of flight. It is important to note that Jeppesen Chart Change Notices highlight only significant changes affecting Jeppesen Charts, also regularly updated at .b usually includes airway structures and routes, ATS textual and graphic information concerning entire enroute flight phase. The airway structure, routes, and controlled airspace may be depicted on combined high/low altitude enroute charts. If congested airspace does not allow a combination of high/low altitude charts, the low and high altitude airspace depiction is separated into low altitude and high altitude enroute charts.
It’s important to recognize that Jeppesen dose not create aviation procedures. The charts Jeppesen creates are graphic representations of the procedures designed by aviation authorities in compliance with the governing regulations . Jeppesen extracts the basic information for the charting and Nav Data services from public documents and disseminated by worldwide civil aviation authorities.
