The types of areas stored in the database and
the abbreviations used to denote these areas are
detailed in Table 3D-4.
Only the outer lateral boundaries are stored for
Class B, Class C, CTA, and TMA airspace. These
special use airspace areas are stored as cylinders of
airspace so all altitudes below the upper limit of these
areas are considered to be in the area.

Warning Area
The message prompt for a special use airspace
alert will occur when the aircraft is approximately
10 minutes from penetrating the outer boundary. It will
also occur if the aircraft is within approximately
2 nautical miles of one of these areas even if the
aircraft wont actually penetrate the area. The pilot
selects the amount of vertical buffer. If one of the
areas is penetrated, another message will state,
INSIDE SPC USE AIRSPACE.
3D-12. AIRPORT PAGES.
There are eight airport pages for every airport in
the published database.
The database primary area contains public use
and military airports that have a runway at least
1000 feet in length.
a. Airport 1 Page. Refer to Figure 3D-19.
NOTE
The APT 1 page has a different format
when it is displayed as one of the nine
nearest airports.
(1) Airport identifier. An arrow precedes the
identifier if the airport is the active waypoint.
(2) Airport name.
(3) If the airport underlies the outer boundary
of Class B or C airspace, CTA, or TMA, the letters CL
B, CL C, CTA, or TMA will display. If the airport is
military, the letters MILTRY will display.
(4) The latitude and longitude of the airport
reference point.
