This initiative represents an international effort in response to many requests, and is part of an ongoing effort to improve chart usability and readability. Jeppesen worked closely with many of its airline customers, a wide range of pilots (crewed aircraft and single-pilot operations), various professional aviation organizations, and general aviation pilots to incorporate enhancements into this new format. This included extensive sur- veys from experienced instrument pilots using briefing strip charts in actual flight operations. The result is e chart designed by pilots and for pilots that presents basic approach information in the order in which they would nor- melly brief the procedure prior to flying it Development of the briefing strip concept began in 1993, and is now a highly refined variation of the original format. The process included testing and evalua- tion by professionals in the field of human factors concerning how pilots review and use the chart data. Additionally, it includes crew resource management (CRM) techniques, a standard pre-approach briefing sequence of information, e format compatible with advanced aircraft, avionics, and navigation systems, considera- tion for eventual transition of approach charts to electronic displays, and an emphasis on usability and legibility. Although the information on the chart is essentially the same as the original for- ‘at, it is rearranged in a more logical and intuitive sequence. Two new items in this format include the symbolic depiction of the approach lighting system for the straight-in approach runway, and missed approach icons to graphically depict the initial “up and out” missed approach procedure. Other significant features of the new format include a new placement for the minimum safe altitude circle, com- plete missed approach information in the heading section, common placement of procedural notes in the heading, and use of big and bold type for selected navaid frequencies, fix names, bearings, and altitudes. There is also @ new place- ment for the conversion tables. ‘The new format will first appear at selected locations. Initially, not every chart in a revision will be converted to the new format, Therefore, you may not see a new format chart in every revision for your service, Eventually, all Jeppesen approach and airport charts worldwide will be converted to the new format within a few years. The new format is compatible with all other Jeppesen chart formats. Pilots who have used briefing strip charts have commented that they have been able to tran- sition to the new layout without difficulty. During simulator evaluations, the majority of participating pilots were completely satisfied with the existing approach chart format and did not see a compelling need to change it. But after using charts in the new format, their opinions changed completely and they came to prefer the new briefing strip format, Seo the Summary at the ond of this Handbook for survey results. The contents of this Orientation Handbook provide you with detailed infor- mation on the new approach chart format. This includes general layout, usage pattem, an overview and explanation of features, and a new format legend.TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION ......... 1 APPROACH CHART......... cee e eet et eet eee eee ee 4 General Layout Typical Usage Pattern Overview of Features. . .

The groups solicited were: airline pilots (passenger and cargo operations), corporate and general aviation pilots, and internationally experienced airline pilots. The survey program was intended to gather opinions from a range of pilots with various backgrounds, aircraft types, professional experience, and those who operate in all parts of the world. Over a two-year period, approximately 60,000 pilots were given an oppor- tunity to participate in the survey and to share their individual opinions. The level of interest was evident by the combined number of 5,300 surveys which were returned and tabulated. This represented @ response rate of nearly 9%, which is considered to be a high response. ‘The new format was enthusiastically received. For example, when asked to rato the new chart format for its overall usability (on a scale of 1 to 6, with 6 being excellent), 86% of all responding pilots rated the new format in the cat- egory of excellent or nearly excellent. The briefing strip arrangement in the heading averaged a favorable rating of 85%, The introduction and use of missed approach icons got a favorable rating of 80%. When asked to rate the mixture of formats and the ability to transition from one format to another, 78% of all pilots rated the situation as acceptable. The overwhelmingly pos- itive response from pilots supported the company in its decision to begin the process of converting its worldwide library of approach charts, The introduction of the new format and the favorable response it has received represents the culmination of a thorough and dedicated effort by a number of airlines, professional aviation organizations, as well as the input and cooperation of thousands of individuel pilots from around the world. Jeppesen extends its gratitude to everyone who contributed to the development effort.
