Flight Guide Turns 50!
Airguide Publications is proud to announce our fiftieth anniversary. As the nation’s leading VFR airport guide, Flight Guide Manual has set the standard in providing quality airport and supplementary data that general aviation pilots have come to depend on. In celebration of our important milestone, we are debuting a new and improved Flight Guide Manual and Revision Service.
New & Improved Flight Guide Manuals
Flight Guide Manuals will now be produced in a slightly larger format, kneeboard size (5.5 x 8.5) and weigh the same as the classic manual (about 1 lb.). For easier readability, less airports will be on a page to allow for larger type and airport diagrams. It will also be available in two types of binding formats: spiral and 7 holed pages drilled to fit our executive ringed binder. We will also be increasing the amount of information that is updated in each book. Since we will only be printing complete books, we will now be able to update all the changes that come into our office each time we produce a new edition.

New & Improved Revision Services
Flight Guide Revision Services now come in two options: Basic and Deluxe. The Basic Service provides one complete Flight Guide Manual per year with FREE access to Flight Guide Online, our full-service internet flight tool. The Deluxe Service provides two complete Flight Guide Manuals per year for a region, one every six months, along with FREE access to Flight Guide Online.
Your Flight Guide Online coverage is based on the classic Western, Central & Eastern region coverage. For example, even if you subscribe to only one of the western, central or eastern regions for the printed manual, you will get the entire region, both north & south coverage, with Flight Guide Online.
*Please note that the Flight Planner & Weather in Flight Guide Online encompasses the whole USA, and is not limited by region.

Revision Service Account Details
For those members who already subscribe to Flight Guide Online, your online service will continue until it’s expiration date.

Those customers will receive revisions in our loose-leaf format.
Flight Guide Is Still The Best Value!
Flight Guide still remains the best value for providing quality airport information pilots can trust – no other source comes close! The airport facility directory charges $27.50 per region or $189.00 for the USA and is missing critical airport data such as (1) an airport diagram for each airport (2) all taxiways depicted (3) businesses on field with all services & locations (4) food, transportation, lodging & recreational destination info and (5) Class B, C & D airspace graphics. Others charge $35 per region or $210 for the USA and don't supply replacement of all pages during the year nor do they provide access to an online flight planning tool like Flight Guide Online!
