The Calgary Instrument Approach Chart and Landing Chart are examples of a series of about 90 maps which form an integral part of the Canada Air Pilot. The portion reproduced here is from the Kootenay River chart. Its principal use is the same as for the 1:506 880 series but it is designed to serve higher speed aircraft. The 1:1 000 000 series consists of 68 sheets. It is illustrated here by part of the Banff-Bassano sheet and part of the Avalon-Burin sheet.

The series of Aeronautical Charts on a scale of 1:506 880 (8 miles to 1 inch) consists of 221 maps principally used for visual reference flying while assisted by aeronautical aids.

The Landing Chart is used to identify and then land on the runway in use and to show the taxi-ways leading to passenger terminals, hangars and other areas. The Approach Chart is mainly used to descend, by instruments, through cloud, until visual reference to the ground is established immediately before a landing is made.
