6.4. LESSON TOPIC OBJECTIVES

6.4.1. T-1A/T-39 and T-34 VNAV charts differ only slightly--construction for both is on a TPC

scale chart, and annotations are generally the same. However, there are some significant

differences:

6.4.1.1. Route points are specified in AP-1/B.

6.4.1.2. Turns of 30 or greater incorporate a turn radius.

6.4.1.3. The only color used on the chart prior to flight is black.

6.4.1.4. Altitudes in the information blocks reflect an emergency altitude rather than the planned

flight altitude.

6.4.1.5. Times, time ticks, and fuel data is for the T-1A/T-39 aircraft flying at 300 kts ground

speed.

6.4.1.6. Restricted airspace within 20 NM of the route is annotated and defined.

6.4.1.7. Pilot cards are not required.

6.5. LOW LEVEL CHART PREPARATION

6.5.1. Determining the Route

6.5.1.1. In T-34 VNAV operations, the VNAV Stereo Route Handout provided routing and

altitudes for chart construction. However, T-1A/T-39 Visual Navigation require the use of
