Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Atlantic Pilot Atlas (Spiral-bound)
As long as you don't get sucked into believing the hype that this is the only navigation/weather resource you will need, this book is an excellent buy. You definitely need a Pilot Chart and this is not the only one available, but you can't go wrong with it.
