See the AFMS for more information.NOTE: The Chart feature provides a digital representation of a paperchart and provides no vertical or lateral course guidance. Flight Plan andProcedures are separate from Charts, and do provide vertical and lateralcourse guidance for the loaded route or procedure shown on the FlightPlan page. The term “Chart Unavailable” means that the chart cannot beviewed on the Charts due to either a chart not being published, or an errorin the Chart database, but does not preclude its availability or inclusion ofthe procedure in the Flight Plan or Procedures portion of the system. Theabsence of a chart for a particular Departure, Arrival, or Approach doesnot preclude its availability or inclusion in the Flight Plan. The absence ofa particular Departure, Arrival, or Approach under the Flight Plan does notpreclude the ability to view the Chart.NOTE: Do not use SafeTaxi or Chartview functions as the basis for groundmaneuvering. SafeTaxi and Chartview functions do not comply with therequirements of AC 20-159 and are not qualified to be used as an airportmoving map display (AMMD). SafeTaxi and Chartview are to be used bythe flight crew to orient themselves on the airport surface to improve pilotsituational awareness during ground operations.
