copyright messages displayed to the consumer. Virtually all data sources

contain some inaccurate or incomplete data. In some countries, complete

and accurate map information is either not available or is prohibitively

expensive.
tFr Data: Temporary Flight Restriction (TFR) data is provided by the

FAA and may not be updated outside of normal business hours. Confirm

data currency though alternate sources and contact your local FSS for

interpretation of TFR data.

recycling of certain electronics. For more information on the applicability
