Source for Vintage Approach charts?

Recommended Posts

Hello!

As I did not find that much on my search, I wonder if anyone has a good source for old approach charts?

ILS, VOR and NDB from the 40's up to the 70's or something.

Perhaps - but unless you rip through the sim data, it's likely that it won't match up. So, while they're nice wall art, they won't be particularly functional.

Would be cool to fly the old radio range (LFR) approaches, but the sim doesn't have them at all:

Thats true, simdata will not match up... So I think I will keep up with my own method. I use littlenavmap (without the plane shown on map) and build my own vintage approaches via the distance measuring tool and stuff. 

But it would indeed be a very nice wallart! You gave me a very nice idea, as me and my girlfriend are moving and I am re-planing my "sim-workstation" at the moment. 

Thank you very much!

Agree!  I used to have a yellowed dog eared approach plate for the radio range approach to Chicago Orchid Field (ORD).  I've lost track of it... it might still be in my old leather flight bag. Hmmm something to do today.
