About Aeronautical Chart

The Aeronautical Chart theme is built from the FAA VFR sectional — the dense, color-coded paper map pilots fly with on visual navigation. Magenta and blue airspace rings, yellow city tints, and tan hypsometric terrain crowd an aged dark sheet, every feature labeled in condensed grotesque ink.

Nothing here is decorative. Each color is a defined code: magenta for non-towered and Class E surface airspace, blue for towered fields, yellow for urban area, tan for relief. The grid, the lat/long ticks, and the frequency boxes are functional furniture. Read it like a cockpit display at night, not a poster.
