Performance Guidelines for Pilot Information Centers

Abstract

The purpose of a Pilot Information Center (PIC) is to promote general aviation (GA) safety by making available a comprehensive and readily accessible base of information to assist pilots in preflight planning and to stimulate pilot awareness. This document was developed as a standardized source of those elements of information that would enhance flight safety by facilitating proper preflight planning practices and procedures. While it was designed to serve as a basic guide for the development of State-provided PICs, it is not intended to promote any particular manufacturer(s) or product(s). This report is one of two being published on PIC. The other report is DOT/FAA/SP-93/1, Pilot Information Center for Preflight Planning. Both documents address the issue of what services are required for GA preflight planning.
