3.11.1.3. The Airport 3 (APT 3) Page

See figure 3-137.

The APT 3 page displays the runway
designation, length, surface, and
lighting for up to five runways in order
of length, beginning with the longest
runway. Since there are many times
when all of an airport’s runway information does not fit on one page,
additional APT 3 pages are used to display the data. Remember that
a “+” inserted between the page type and the number (APT+3 in this
case) is used to indicate that there is more than one Airport 3 page.

Line 1: The ICAO identifier (see section 2.3) of the airport; an arrow
precedes the identifier if it is the active waypoint. To the right is the
runway designation for the first runway on the page.

NOTE: In some parts of the world, runway numbers are based on
true runway heading rather than magnetic. These runways are
prevalent in northern Canada, where there is a large magnetic varia-
tion gradient. For these runways, a

symbol separates the two

runway numbers (example

1

14

4

3

32

2

).

Line 2: The runway length for the first runway listed on the page, the
runway surface type and the type of lighting (blank if none).

Runway surface abbreviations:

HRD Hard surface
TRF Turf
GRV Gravel
CLY Clay
SND Sand
DRT Dirt
SNW Snow
ICE Ice
SHL Shale
MAT Steel mat

Runway lighting Abbreviations:

L Sunset to sunrise
LPC Pilot controlled lighting
LPT Part-time or on-request lighting

Lines 3-4: Runway information for the next shortest runway (if any),
in the same format as lines 1 and 2.
