Finding approach charts and airport diagrams

Pull up the NACO airport diagram using the NACO chart finding web site or the AOPA site. AOPA is a bit easier to use but NACO has some interesting options.

Other Options:

  • Show all airports/cities for this State
  • Airport Diagrams only

Filtered by the action performed on them:

  • Added since last cycle
  • Changed since last cycle
  • Deleted since last cycle

I like the option of finding all of the changes since the last cycle. It appears to only work at a state level, which could be annoying for those of you who fly in the Northeast, but isn’t too bad for West Coast flyers.

I haven’t been able to verify this but, from random searching, it appears that only towered airports have a NACO airport diagram. The AF/D appears to have a diagram for every airport with an instrument approach and many without an IAP. The online version isn’t working as I write this post, but they are looking into it. Jepp charts have a diagram for every airport with an approach, but you can’t get them on-line like the NACO charts.

The NASR Lookup site has general information on the airport and its runways, but no diagrams. Like many FAA sites, once youv’e done a search you can just replace the ICAO airport identifier in the URL and find other airports.

Just replace KSBP with another airport.
