Hi All,

Few months back, I noticed some mistakes on a couple of the AIS charts - I emailed the CAA and NATS, and have heard nothing back, and the mistakes are still there. Its on the new look charts (which I really dont like by the way ;) ) I really thought someone else would have noticed it by now, and corrected them...

WOBUN and BUZAD deps from LL, title of the chart clearly says WOBUN and BUZAD, along with the diagram, yet if you look at the table at the bottom describing the routings, it calls them all WOBUN - surely the WOBUN 3J and WOBUN 2K should both read BUZAD?

Isn't the ILS frequency for 27R, 110.30, and not 109.50?

These are a few of the mistakes I have found, or what I believe to be mistakes, do feel free to correct me if I am wrong ;)

Best Regards,

Gaz

I've noticed quite a few other mistakes on the new-style SID charts too. If they don't get reported, the CAA often doesn't spot them.

If you're seeing the mistakes on Jepps or Aerads etc, best to tell them first as it may be their mistake, not the CAA's (not in this case though as the mistakes are in the AIP).

I can see that 'Gaz' is going to be a real bundle of laughs on the September course!

I think you will do very well on the maps and charts section of the verbal exam (if they still do that?). :8 :8 :8 :8 :8 :8 :8 :8

Does anyone have anything nice to contribute to the discussion? ;) Like who to get in contact with? These are quite basic errors, and I am suprised no one in authority has picked them up...

Do I sense some teddies being thrown from the pram because nobody's listening to Gaz?
