What is this website for?
The Portuguese Aeronautical Information Publication AIP is available as a free version. This website aims to simplify the search for airfields, as the version from NAV Portugal does not include a search function. We do not accept any liability for the accuracy or timeliness of the AIP (Aeronautical Information Publication), as it is not published by us. We only provide convenient links to the respective approach charts.
