Have you called them to inform them of the charting errors?


I sent an email as I noted in my post. If I haven't heard anything by
later today, I'll try the phone. I didn't figure anybody would be home
last night at the time I found the errors.

I received an email today saying that the errors I reported were in fact
errors (gotta love the government) and that they would be corrected by
NOTAM and the 9/29 change notice.

Matt,

My concern would not be the errors you found, but rather the errors you
didn't find.

Yes. That is one of the reasons that I scan each new set of charts
looking at the obvious things (Takeoff and alternate minimums, SIDS,
STARS and the approaches at my home field). This is the first time I've
found errors so I was rather surprised to quickly find two errors.

Obviously, errors at unfamiliar fields would be much harder to find...

A valid concern.

The national airspace system is a bit like New Orleans, except the dikes
haven't quite caved in...yet.
