Description
FAA Memphis Terminal – 11/30/23 thru 01/25/24
If your VFR piloting will take you to Blues City, be sure you have the FAA’s remarkably detailed, full-color Memphis Terminal Area Chart (TAC) close at hand. While Sectional Charts are great for enroute navigation, TACs rule the skyway when it comes to aviating safely in congested, Class Bravo airspace. TACs utilize a large (1:250,000; 3.43 nm per inch [1.35 nm per cm]) scale that allows them to depict additional landmarks, important altitudes, radio frequencies, and other noteworthy aeronautical data that’s not feasible to include on sectionals. Additionally, several TACs feature VFR Flyway Planning Charts on the reverse side, which present flight paths and altitudes to help low, slow flyers steer clear of larger, quicker aircraft.
The Memphis TAC provides a detailed portrayal of the Class B airspace centered around Memphis International Airport (MEM). As with all TAC publications, this chart is updated on a 6-month cycle. An extremely affordable, data-rich resource to enhance your situational awareness and operational safety while flying around The Bluff City.
