This template is used to generate an external link to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) diagram for a specific airport. These URLs change every 28 days, so by using a template they can be updated in one place rather than editing multiple articles.

Parameters

  1. (required) - airport number as found in URL of the FAA's Digital Terminal Procedures Publication. For a URL of http://naco.faa.gov/d-tpp/0701/00001AD.PDF, the airport number is 00001.
  2. (optional) - airport name

Examples

  1. For Abilene Regional Airport, without optional parameter:
    • URL: http://naco.faa.gov/d-tpp/0701/00001AD.PDF
    • Usage: {{FAA-diagram|00001}}
    • Result: FAA Airport Diagram (PDF), effective Error: Invalid time.
