11.4.2.4. Additional guidance on calculating an ETP can be found on the AMC/A3V
web page in the Pubs section: https://private.amc.af.mil/a3/a3v/publications.aspx;
under Miscellaneous Documents.
11.4.3. Charts. The navigator will flight follow on all missions using a suitable plotting
chart (JNC, JNCA, or GNC). On missions that do not require plotting fixes, for situational
awareness only, navigators may use FalconView moving map in lieu of printed charts.
11.4.3.1. Show the following items on the chart:
11.4.3.1.1. Navigator‗s name and coordinated universal date. Chart number and
edition will be annotated on a stripped chart.
11.4.3.1.2. Flight plan course line and waypoints (if not pre-labeled) will be
annotated with waypoint number, identifier, radial and DME, or latitude and
longitude.
11.4.3.1.3. Annotate suitable emergency airfields. Optimum emergency airfields are
located within 50 NM of the intended route. Refer to the GDSS/ASRR for suitability.
11.4.3.1.4. Portions of Air Defense Identification Zones (ADIZ)/FIR boundaries (if
not depicted accurately) pertinent to the route will be annotated.
11.4.3.1.5. Annotate the approximate location of the ETP.
11.4.3.2. Plot each fix or position along with the time at that position. Use standard
symbols from AFPAM 11-216, Air Navigation.
11.4.3.3. In the interest of conservation, flight charts for high level missions may be
reused whenever such reuse would not affect plotting accuracy of fixes or position
determination.
11.4.3.4. FalconView produced Lambet-Conformal charts may be used.
11.4.3.5. On approach or departure, the navigator will monitor the aircraft position using
an appropriately scaled chart (TPC, JOG, etc). Use the chart updating manual or host
nation chart updating product to update charts within 10-NM of the approach, departure,
emergency and divert bases for airfields without a DOD or an approved Jeppesen
approach plate. FalconView generated charts with updated ECHUM overlays fulfill this
requirement.
11.4.3.5.1. In IMC or at night, the navigator will use all available navigational aids
(including aircraft radar) to keep the aircraft clear of all obstructions.
11.5. Navigation Capability / Airspace Requirements.
11.5.1. MNPS standards are established in FLIP. NOTE: Airspace and associated
navigational aid equipment capability are rapidly evolving. Pilots must maintain an in depth
knowledge of current FLIP requirements/policies.
11.5.1.1. Aircraft that lose required equipment prior to oceanic airspace will return to the
nearest maintenance repair facility.
11.5.2. Reduced Vertical Separation Minimum (RVSM) Airspace. Airspace where RVSM is
applied is considered special certification airspace. Both the operator and the specific aircraft
