Visual Terminal Charts (VTC)

The Visual Terminal Chart provide both aeronautical and topographical information at a scale of 1:250,000 for VFR operations in the vicinity of major aerodromes. In some cases, VTC show details of tracks to be flown and significant landmarks which are used by pilots of VFR aircraft to avoid accidental penetration of controlled airspace.

Note: In addition to full topographical information, the VTCs also show the following details:

• prohibited, restricted and dangerous areas within terminal areas;
• control zones and associated control areas lanes of entry ATC checkpoints; and
• VFR approach points – over which pilots should fly when making VFR entry to a primary control zone.

This chart is amended every 6 months.
