    Airport Directory

    I'm trying to find a good airport directory for Wisconsin. I have the chart supplement for E.C. US but I've seen better ones out there, one with a spiral binding and a diagram/photo of every airport. I just can't remember who made it though. I have checked online and haven't had any luck finding one. Anyone know where I might find one?

    If you are thinking of the Flight Guide (spiral binding but diagrams, not pictures), they are out of business, although I have seen some FBO's still selling them, not sure why.

    I would say it's because of NOS and they just want to sell them to recoup the cash they paid for them.

    Yeah, given how great the little brown books were, the digital product was amazingly bad.

    I still have mine, does anybody make plain paper cut to fit those books? They would make a great notebook.

    Not that I am aware of. I did buy a punch that puts six holes into paper for a jepp binder once. I have 5 binders collecting dust somewhere around here (4 2" for the east plate coverage and one 1" for the j-aid). At one point I had a couple of thousand fabric covered binders with the Independence Airlines logo on them that I bought among a lot of other stuff at their liquidation auction.

    Ahh, J-Aid, I remember that. You can buy blank pages for the old Jepp binders directly from Jepp, pretty cheap if I remember correctly.
