Plotting Charts - Introduction |
|
|
There are three charts: |
|
|
• NORTH CANADA (NCP) |
|
|
• NORTH ATLANTIC (NAP) |
|
|
• MID ATLANTIC (MAP) |
|
|
Each chart is designed for plotting routes and positional information. In the final examination |
|
|
students should expect one simple plotting question, at least, based upon one of the charts. |
|
|
Plotting Charts - Projection |
|
|
The chart is a LAMBERT CONFORMAL CONIC PROJECTION: |
|
|
• Scale is considered to be constant. |
|
|
• For practical purposes straight lines drawn on the chart are considered to be GREAT CIRCLES. |
|

• Bearings are correct. |
|
• 1 inch = 120 NM. |
