SPECIAL NOTICE

INTRODUCTION

GENERAL - AP/1 contains aeronautical data for North and South America and supplements the data in General Planning (GP), and select data in the Enroute Supplements (E-S) and Flight Information Handbook (FIH). Refer to Chapter 3 of General Planning for a complete description of the FLIP Planning document. Textual entries shall have a Source Reference entry following the paragraph or paragraphs to which they apply.
REVISION CYCLE -AP/1 is revised every 24 weeks. The schedule including cutoff and effective dates is listed in the FLIP Planning publication schedule published in General Planning Chapter 11.
INTERNET -DAFIF, E-CHUM, Enroute Supplements and Planning Documents are available at https://www.geointel.nga.mil
CUSTOMER HELP - For questions concerning this or other NGA products or services, please phone the NGA Enterprise Service Center 1-800-455-0899 or DSN 287-9811.
AMENDMENTS - AP/1 is amended by two (2) scheduled Planning Change Notices (PCNs) published 8 and 16 weeks after the effective date of AP/1. Since these PCNs are non-cumulative they must be retained until the new issue of the basic product is received.
NEW OR MODIFIED DATA - A vertical line appearing in the margin identifies data added or modified since publication of the last book.
REVISIONS AND QUALITY REPORTS
1. Modifications to FLIP fall into three general categories:

a.
REVISIONS - Adding, rearranging content or format, or deleting major blocks or types of information. Examples are:

(1)
Adding new weather service information to Section C of the Flight Information Handbook.

(2)
Rearranging the Remarks Section of an airport Enroute Supplement entry.

(3)
Deleting obsolete NAVAID information from Enroute Charts.

 

b.
CHANGES - Maintaining the currency of existing information in response to operational changes. Examples are:

(1)
Changing airport operating hours in the airport Enroute Supplement entry.

(2)
Adding a newly authorized radio frequency to an Instrument Approach Procedure.

 

c.
CORRECTIONS - Correcting improperly published information. Examples are:

(1)
Correcting an improperly published course on an Enroute Chart.

(2)
Correcting erroneous information concerning Flight Plans in General Planning.

 

2. The three types of modifications to FLIP are processed differently by each military service. It is important to adhere to the instructions below to ensure a submitted modification is promptly received, evaluated, approved and implemented.
a. USAF, ANG, AFRC

(1) Except for requirement requests to publish changes to Terminal Instrument Procedures [paragraph (2) below] and changes to Military Airspace [paragraph (3) below], all requests for new products, publication of new types of FLIP data, revisions/changes/ corrections and inquiries concerning current FLIP will be in accordance with AFI 11-201 and submitted to AFFSA/A3IF. AFFSA/A3IF is the USAF point of contact responsible for FLIP validation/production/maintenance and will coordinate with NGA, FAA National Flight Data Center (NFDC) and National Aeronautical Charting Office (NACO) on any and all USAF FLIP issues related to requested changes/ maintenance/production. Additionally, AFFSA/A3IF will also process all requests for non-DoD FLIP products in accordance with the NGA Catalog. AFFSA/A3IF is the USAF FLIP Coordinating Committee member responsible for coordinating requirement issues with NGA, Army, and Navy.
The AFFSA/A3IF address is:

AFFSA/A3IF AJW31AF Bldg 4, Room 109 6500 South MacArthur Blvd Oklahoma City, OK 73169 CONUS - PACIFIC, CARIBBEAN and SOUTH AMERICA C405-739-9011 or DSN 339-9011 OCONUS - EUROPE/ASIA and AFRICA C405-739-9241 or DSN 339-9241 FAX: C405-739-9007 or DSN 339-9007 MSG: AFFSA ANDREWS AFB, MD//A3OIA E-MAIL: hqaffsa.a3if@tinker.af.mil
NOTE: Use AF Form 3546 (electronic) at http://www.e-publishing.af.mil for adding, deleting, revising, or submitting comments concerning FLIP products. Aircrews may also use this form for FLIP related problems or any other instrument flying concerns.
(a)
Originators, office of primary responsibility requester (OPRR), will prepare submissions in the appropriate format and perform primary responsibility for maintenance (OPRM) when required.

(b) Originators will ensure submissions are clear, concise, and intelligible to aircrew and flight mission planners.

Originators will identify an expiration date, not to exceed 3 years. Entries not validated/updated within the time frame as stated will be subject to removal.

NOTE: Office of Primary Responsibility (OPRR) is the military department or organization that either establishes or validates the requirement for the entry, and the Office of Primary Responsibility for Maintenance (OPRM) is the organization or document responsible for the currency of the entry.
(Examples):
(SPECS/MIL RAC 7-5) - The OPRR is the NGA product specifications that mandates the need for an entry. The OPRM is the host nation Military AIP document used by NGA to maintain the entry.
(AFFSA/AFFSA XOIA FIL 03-147) - The OPRR is the US Air Force Flight Standards Agency. The OPRM is the AFFSA Instrument Standards/Aeronautical Information Branch. The Flight Information List (FIL) 03-147 identifies calendar year 03. 147 identifies the FIL number.
