This document provides an overview and definitions for various types of aeronautical charts, including enroute charts, area charts, and approach charts. It discusses key elements and abbreviations commonly found on these charts such as altitude requirements, speed restrictions, navigation aids, and minimum altitudes. Users are directed to consult the Jeppesen Chart Volume 1 glossary for more detailed definitions and explanations of chart symbols and terms.

ENROUTE CHARTS: HIGH/LOW ALTITUDE / AREA CHARTS / APPROACH CHART GLOSSARY The Chart Glossary Jeppesen Chart Volume 1 INTROUCTION
This is glossary provides definitions that
are unique and abbreviations commonly used in Jeppesen publications.
Includes FAA definitions (when different)
Where to look for Volume 1? Jeppesen manual on board the aircraft Jeppesen manual in the chart room (across from the FCD) Jeppesen website?! HIGH/LOW ALTITUDE ENROUTE CHARTS: FAR EAST HIGH/LOW ALT. ENROUTE CHART 1. Change to adjoining enroute chart at this point. 2. QNH/QNE boundaries 2A: Inside the line QNE (FL130 at or above), QNH (11000 or below), Outside is QNE 2B: Inside the line QNE (about FL170), QNH (below 15000), Outside the line QNE (about FL130), QNH (below 11000) Continue...
3. Training, Alert, Caution, and Military
Operations Areas. 4. Meteorological report required (temp., wind, incing, turbulence, clouds and other significant wx) 5. MAA: Maximum Authorized Altitude (shown as alt. or FL) (A published alt. representing the maximum usable alt. or FL for an airspace structure or route segment) 6. Area chart coverage Area Chart: OSAKA/NAGOYA, JAPAN (H/L) AREA CHART: 1. Speed Limit Point – Speed restriction on shaded side of symbol
2. MOCA: minimum obstruction clearance altitude
(the lowest published alt. in effect between radio fixes on VOR airways, off airway routes, or route segments which meets obstacle clearance requirements for the entire route segment)(in USA assures acceptable navigational signal coverage only within 22NM of a VOR) Most importantly on the AREA CHART:
It gives the SPEED restrictions
APPROACH CHART: Includes: The meaning of different symbols on different approaches charts (eg. GPS, ILS, RNAV… etc,) The lighting systems Take-off and Alternate minimums Landing minimums And many more… Further study, please reference to Jeppesen Volume 1 INTRODUCTION
