Not true.
Here's a link to an Pre-WWII US Aeronautical Chart Note that it is titled "Sectional Aeronautical
Chart" Note also that it is over a thousand miles from the nearest ocean. Note further that the publishing date is 1940 which is over half century before the existence of the EU and 30 years before the existence of the JAA. Point being, that the use of the term "Chart" for aeronautical navigation documents was established long before either. If your reasons for refusing to use "chart" is because it's an invention of the JAA or EU, then you have no basis in fact.
