Tactical Pilotage Charts
Hey,
I hope someone here can help me, I've been trying for sometime to get my hand on Tactical Pilotage Charts. They are used by the RAAF for low level navigation and I've heard from a number of people that they are good for VFR Navs. Problem is that with all this terrorism business they seem to no longer be on general sale. I've called Air Services and a few map retailers none of whom have ever heard of them! Anyway does anyone know how/where to get hold of them?
Cheers

Your right there are a number of suppliers of ONC and TPC but not for Australia. It seems they are not available for public sale. However I've heard that you can order them from some suppliers or a government department. The problem is I don't know who that might be. So if anyone knows could they let me know here.

Tinstaafl,
Appreciate the help, however you are wrong, if you actually go into any of the websites that you mention you will find that the TPC and ONC charts are not available for Australia. I've seen a few notices on these sites now saying that they have been withdrawn from public sale. However as I mentioned earlier I have also heard there are ways to get them, which is my interest so my question stands. Does anyone know how to get hold of TPC/ONC charts given that they have on the whole been withdrawn from public sale?

The above post is correct.
There was also a medium-large map shop in Brisbane that had the odd TNC... just can't think of the name. It was in a large mall in the city so it may be this one - World Wide Maps and Guides. 07 3221 4330
