How can I get a parachute jumping symbol for a specific area put on a chart?
Parachute jump areas are designated airspace areas that are depicted to alert the flying public of special air traffic activity. Charting these areas may be accomplished by contacting the FAA Regional Office having jurisdiction over the airspace and request the specific area be charted. The FAA Specialist will verify the information, apply the data to standard charting criteria: • Be in operation for at least 1 year. • Operate year round (at least on weekends). • Log 4,000 or more jumps each year. Jump sites can also be nominated by FAA Regions if special circumstances require charting. Once published in the National Flight Data Digest, the information will be added to the PARACHUTE JUMPING AREAS Section of the Airport/Facility Directory. If the parachute jump area meets minimum charting requirements we will depict the Parachute Jump Area symbol on the appropriate chart for the next publication cycle.
