AIRPORT / FACILITIES DIRECTORY - Get real
familiar with this. FAA demands you are
responsible for knowing the airport details from
your at both departure and destination. Published
quarterly, by region of U.S., provides all
details you will ever need on public airports
(not private-personal use airports). Florida is
in the SOUTHEAST A/FD which also covers 6 other
states and Puerto Rico.. The first 19 pages
are Keys to interpretation. There is more than
you need now, But should you pursue Instrument,
Commercial, ATR ratings then you will find
this extra detail essential.
