6. Airways:

6.1. 'AWY1' RECORD TYPE CONTAINS THE BASIC AND MINIMUM ENROUTE ALTITUDE(MEA) DATA FOR EACH AIRWAY POINT/SEGMENT. THERE IS ONE AWY1 RECORD FOR EACH AIRWAY POINT/SEGMENT.

6.2. 'AWY2' RECORD TYPE CONTAINS THE AIRWAY POINT DESCRIPTION. THERE IS ONE AWY2 RECORD FOR EACH AIRWAY POINT.

6.3. 'AWY3' RECORD TYPE CONTAINS THE TO CHANGEOVER POINT NAVAID DESCRIPTION (VOR AND JET AIRWAYS ONLY). THERE IS ONE RECORD FOR EACH TO CHANGEOVER POINT NAVAID DESCRIPTION.

6.4. 'AWY5' RECORD TYPE CONTAINS TEXTUAL INFORMATION REGARDING EXCEPTIONS TO THE STANDARD AWY CHANGEOVER POINT DATA. EACH AWY5 RECORD CONTAINS ONE LINE OF TEXT. THERE CAN BE 0 OR MORE AWY5 RECORDS.

7. Findings: AWY1 establishes the list of Airways (Preferred Routes are in another set of data) AWY2 establishes the Ground based NAV used to support AWY's AWY3 adds Ground based NAV for AWY change points need to add "touch points" for NAV's previously established in AWY2 AWY4 and 5 add restrictions to NAV's as theey apply to AWY's Hold for future GPS development
