What is the AIP? Why was it introduced?

 

The Aeronautical Information Publication (AIP) New Zealand is a package of documents that provides all the operational information required for safe national and international air navigation to and within New Zealand.

The publication is compliant with the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) standard. This means pilots from around the world using the AIP of any ICAO member country can find nformation in the same place and in the same format.

Please refer to AIP Product Information for a brief description of the publication and its structure. A full online version of the AIP is available

The AIP New Zealand replaces the previous Planning Manual, Visual Flight Guide (VFG) and Instrument Flight Guide (IFG) publications that will be familiar to many pilots. The structure of the AIP is such that pilots need only purchase Volume 4 to have the information required for in-flight reference under VFR operations. Vol 4 effectively replaces the old VFG.
