Identify the correct trio that comprises the AIP's main sections.

• A. Gen, Enr, Ad
• B. Gen, Enr, Sur
• C. Enr, Ad, Sur
• D. Gen, Ad, Notam

Answer: (A)

The primary structure of an AIP is built around three core parts that cover general information, en-route details, and aerodrome data. General contains broad, non-location-specific information about how the AIS operates, contact details, administrative data, and general guidance that applies countrywide. En-route holds the material needed for planning and conducting flights between aerodromes—route descriptions, airspace structure, route restrictions, navigation aids, and other en-route considerations. Aerodromes focuses on data for individual airports and heliports—runway specifics, lighting and aids, available services, communications frequencies, and emergency procedures. NOTAMs are separate from these main sections, providing time-sensitive information that can affect operations but isn’t part of the standard GEN, ENR, and AD structure. So the trio GEN, ENR, and AD are the main sections of the AIP.
