All accuracies are listed in feet except control station accuracies which are listed in centimeters and graphic accuracies which are listed in millimeters on the graphic.

All accuracies are stated for a 95 percent confidence level.

The following contractions are used throughout FAA No. 405 and repeated here for convenience:

AGL- Above Ground Level
ELLIP- Ellipsoid
HORZ- Horizontal
HRP- Heliport Reference Point
