Tomlinson Airport is located in which area number?

• A. Area 1
• B. Area 2
• C. Area 3
• D. Area 4

Answer: (A)

Understanding how chart area designations work is the idea behind this question. The map divides the vicinity into several numbered areas to simplify referencing procedures and locations. Tomlinson Airport sits inside the boundary of the first area shown on the chart, so that area is the correct reference for the airport. The other areas don’t include the airport, so they don’t apply here. Since the question asks which area number the airport is in, the designation of the first area is the right answer.
